August News
Dear Friends of Earth & Soul,
Do you ever stand outside at night, gazing up at the moon? Many evenings, I find myself wandering out into the back garden, looking up to see where she is in the sky at the moment and to soak in her soft, radiant energies. Some days I am out on a morning walk, and there she is, sharing the sky with the sun. In just a few days, on August 9th, there will be a full moon. Will you join me, wherever you are in the world, to wander outside or sit by a window, pausing to gaze up at her and to receive her energies flowing into us? Our connection with the natural world grounds us, inspires us, and reminds us we are part of something utterly beautiful and full of wonder. When we remember who we are and from where we have come, we have the capacity to live with compassion and love in harmony with Earth and all her beings.
We invite you to join us for one of our many Earth & Soul events, in-person or online, this autumn. These gatherings give us the opportunity to be together in community, to share in the honoring of the sacredness of one another and Earth and listen together to our deep collective wisdom.
Below is our list of autumn offerings as well as the link to our growing list of 2025 and 2026 retreats, pilgrimages and events, which are all listed on our Events Page.
Let us pray together for peace and love, for forgiveness and healing, as we gaze up at the moon and find her gazing back at us.
To the home of peace
to the field of love
to the land where forgiveness and right relationship meet
we look, O God,
with longing for Earth's children
with compassion for the creatures
with hearts breaking for the nations and people we love.
Open us to visions we have never known
strengthen us for self-givings we have never made
delight us with a oneness we could never have imagined
that we may truly be born of You
makers of peace.
