We meet on this monthly high tide of the spirit because the Full Moon is a symbol of the Soul, a luminous circle reflecting a greater light, just as each of us are sacred mirrors of God’s shining presence. The Full Moon Ceremony, held in the Great Hall, Entheon, hosts inspiring short presentations from wisdom teachers, poets, musicians, spiritual friends of all faiths. Alex and Allyson share a presentation on the theme of the month and guests have the chance to offer a blessing or declaration to the community. The performance ceremony adjourns and guests break for live music and dancing, socializing, visiting Entheon, the Mushroom Cafe and the CoSM Shop, gazing into an outdoor bonfire or an indoor fireplace, watching excellent fire-spinning, belly dancing, acrobatics, live painting and more. The evening ends with a closing ceremony and, in harmony with the creatures in our world, a group howl at the moon. Entheon, the Grey House, and the Mushroom Cafe will be open. Your Hosts: Alex Grey & Allyson Grey The Visionary paintings of Alex Grey articulate realms of psychedelic mystical experience, revealing interwoven energies of body and soul, love and spirit, that illuminate the anatomical core of each being. Alex’s artworks on the nature of life and consciousness, have reached millions through his five books including three monographs, the exhibition and extensive reproduction of his artwork, social media, live-painting and speaking appearances including a popular TED talk, plus his stage sets, animation, and Grammy award winning album art for the rock band Tool.
