Cancer New Moon, Solstice Knots & The Edge

climax season

We just passed the most yang moment of the year. It’s climax season, and what goes up, must come down. That’s what this perfectly placed Cancer new moon is for. The cathartic storm that expresses, clears, and empties us out.

T U N E  I N  T O  T H E  S T O R M: 

It was S O (U) L S T I C E

Sweat slithered out from the latex tape blocking my vision.
The room was deceptively dark.

Yet, the feeling of many dilated pupils drinking us in lit up my skin & deepened my breath. More & more rope was intricately wound, bound around my body, preparing me.

Now, it would be mere moments until I was flying high in far more than the literal sense.

Surrender was the only sane option.
This wasn’t just a tying of a body.
We were untying shame, silent-loud.

The above, reveries from a shibari experience Josh & I shared at a community Solstice party, which wove primal profane with the holy.

Shibari: A practice of deep-bowing to the human connection with the electric current of Eros, which shatters the illusion of separation with shared sensation.

That vital current runs through me.
It runs through you.
Through we.

And, it yearns for somewhere to go.

EDGE: Shibari & Sensation Immersion
August 9–10 | 10 AM–6 PM | Denver, CO at Archipelago

This isn’t your average workshop.This is a 2-day portal into the sacred erotic, the consensual edge, and the body practice of being profoundly alive in your sensational skin.

We’ll explore beginner rope & shibari skills, sensation play, devotional polarity, and the frequency of in the body trust.

Storms rage inside of us. And they need an outlet.

This Cancer New Moon conjunct Jupiter, the Amplifier, has cracked open the soft underbelly of the soul through cathartic storms (literal & metaphorical) of feeling, and those feels be revealing a whole lot to those who make the space to be had by them; to feel them.

Luna whispers softly:

“Come home to your animal body. Let sensation lead the way.”

If you’re ready to be met there, in the body, on the edge of surrender and creation, JOIN US. Early bird pricing is available, here.

But regardless, here is full-hearted invitation into tune into the latest episode of Magick in the Mundane’s Under the Influence. One tap & the lim button below will take you there, baby ;)

The first 10 minutes have a raging thunderstorm, hail & rain as background acoustics. It’s Cancerian PERFECT. Stormy. #IYKYK

Cheers to the dance,
Alyssa
