A Beauty Way Offering
We gather together to celebrate Beltane,
and the Sacred Fire.
Santa Fe, New Mexico
April 28-May 1, 2023
A private weekend honoring & celebrating the path of "The Beauty Way" and the High Holy day of Beltane.
We are thrilled to invite you to our personal home and sanctuary space in devotion to the spirit of Tea and Rose located in the heart of New Mexico.
The culture here is rich with magic in the earth and sky. You can feel the deep spiritual energy of land, it's medicine itself. The high desert expansiveness clears the mind and invites the soul into realms of deeper nourishment and awakening. Being here purifies and supports our vessel opening us to more beauty and creativity.
Beltane is a the cross quarter holiday that celebrates the midway between Spring Equinox and Summer Solstice. It roughly translates to meaning "bright fire" and is a time for passion and fertility. Bonfires are lit to bring in the light and as symbols of protection celebrating the May Queen and the God of the forest.
The Offering
This is a personal invitation for a very intimate group to gather together. You will be tenderly held and guided throughout this weekend in ceremonial space by Rachel Rossitto and Baelyn Elspeth, both practitioners of the temple arts and the ways of the Sacred Feminine.
The mornings will begin in stillness, guided by the way of tea. We will have simple nourishment throughout the day and experience other offerings of ceremony and communion with the elements, leading up to a Beltane Fire offering on Sunday evening.
Rachel and Baelyn have been studying and supporting each other on pilgrimages to sacred sites throughout the world following the path of the Magdalene in Avalon, Egypt, China, France and Spain.
"We are honored to offer the medicine we have gathered and guide you through rituals and practices we've learned along our journey to help support and awaken a sense of presence and being."
