THE NEW ELEUSIAN evening CELEBRATION

2nd of June 2023

The Evening Celebration of Life provides unlimited possibilities to embody, express, and share further beauty and joy. It consists of a Celebratory Diner followed by Hybrid parallel evening presentations and activities indoor and outdoor rituals.

An Eleusian Evening, birthing the outcomes and actions of this gathering into flesh and earth. An indoors/outdoors social, creative evening celebration with dinner, music, art, storytelling, poetry, rituals, and dance floor - sitting around the fire, dancing in the flames, and birthing an ancient future out of the ashes - a New Eleusis – the Temple of the Peoples.

Sit With Us in the Unique Legal Psilocybin-Assisted Expert Ceremony

Calling in traditions from all directions for all relations.

With speakers and participants from the Symposium, we will bring the wisdom field into the Unique Legal Psilocybin-Assisted Expert Ceremony. The intention is to deepen further insights and explorations gathered with a focus on collectively expanding the wisdom field on awakening processes to generate a new harmony on Earth through social transformation and further evolution.

In this unique concept, we integrate with all respect and honour Traditional Mexican Cacao and Mushroom Ceremonies, Shamanic Vision Quest Approaches and Rituals, and Sound Music Trance, with psychedelic therapy and integration approaches with diverse experts from different fields.

June 3- 4, 2023

The Ceremony Retreat Center is nestled in a large sacred Nature Reserve outside Amsterdam with Permaculture organic farm, a special biotope landscape with a sacred forest and lake, and ecological housing with overnight stay and Morning After the Ceremony collective integration.

Both, the Global Hybrid Symposium and Unique Legal Psilocybin-Assisted Expert Ceremony focus on creative engagement within ourselves, with each other, with Nature and art – acknowledging the sacredness of all – the Temple Within – the gathering becomes the Temple of the Peoples.

The whole retreat will be led by the visionary and host/organizer Regina U. Hess, Ph.D., Netherlands – experienced ceremony leader and with an experienced team of space holders.

  • We as a group will stay overnight together at the accommodations of the sacred land retreat center and will be splendid with organic delicacies buffet.
