SERPENT MOUND STAR KNOWLEDGE PEACE SUMMIT
The Dragon of Peace and Transmutation Eclipse Ceremony continues​
​
​Friday, September 20 through Sunday, September 22, 2024
Woodland Altars Outdoor Ed Center, Peebles, Ohio​​​​​
​
The astrological alignments on September 22nd, 2024, represent a unique opportunity in our lifetimes to initiate profound positive change. We will ceremonially connect with the magic between Earth and Sky to attune and align with these energies for the Highest Good, Within and Without.
​
Every 18.6 years the Moon is out of bounds enough to pass directly in front of the Pleiades. This will occur in the pre-dawn skies on the Equinox, September 22nd, 2024, and will be visible to us! Lunar energies represent embodiment/ensoulment, emotions, habits, the subconscious mind, and instinct. These occasions allow us to bring Pleiadian frequencies deeper into our lives.
Unique to this moment is that it is conjunct the planet of revolutionary change and freedom, Uranus, and in flowing constructive relationship with the planet of evolutionary transformation, Pluto, which are both in flowing aspect to the Sun near the Equinox point, which is drawing on the planet of vision and the ideals of universal love, Neptune; all are in the last degrees of Earth signs.
We will be ceremonially planting seeds! Informed by the Pleiades, our revolutionary ideas of earth-based values, supported by the breakdown of Old Paradigm structures, are seeding a new way of creating a Temple of Life that reflects Universal Love! This energy is another powerful steppingstone into the Aquarian Age and will not be repeated like this for an exceptionally long time, if ever!

Friday Workshop: Ceremonial Magic with Earth and Sky and the Role of Labyrinths
Attending this workshop is strongly recommended to get the greatest benefit and to understand Sunday's ceremony. Information about this energy and the setup of the ceremonial space will be shared.
We will also discuss
-
astrologically timed ceremony and its importance in geomantic work (working with Earth Energies like sacred sites, etc.)
-
an intro to The Dragon of Peace and Transmutation Eclipse Ceremony
-
an intro to Labyrinths and the Art Line Project.
Ceremony is primarily experiential and will be done almost entirely in silence under the moonlit sky as it passes through the Pleiades.
​
Sunday Ceremony: A Shamanic Walk with the Pleiades
The ceremonial space will be enclosed by a circle of planetary symbols aligned with their actual location in the sky at that moment. Inside this space will be laid out a Labyrinth of sacred geometry that is known as the "Walk of the Pleiades." Participants may bring a personal sacred object to add to the altar. We'll officially open the ceremony at 4:44 a.m. with a group grounding meditation. Under clear skies, I will offer a brief star teaching including pointing out the Lakota Sacred Hoop of stars. Participants will be able to offer a tobacco prayer as they wish. We will then be free to remove shoes and walk The Labyrinth(s) in silent meditation as the moon, the Pleiades, and Uranus culminate high in the sky. After a time of experiential connection, there will be a signal to shift to more open participation in the energy that may include singing, healing sounds or drumming, retreating to one's own space or small group discussions. The labyrinths will remain available until dawn. Sunrise is at 7:22 a.m. and the exact time of equinox is 8:44 a.m.

As a ceremonialist and shaman, Jeffery Grundtner (see full bio here), combines all this understanding to engage in the magic of the Dance between Earth and Sky. Our “Dragon of Peace and Transmutation” eclipse ceremony integrated multiple levels of spiritual, cosmic and Earth energy to create seed-forms of Higher Consciousness in a free and equitable society. We call the primary ceremonial process “Earth Web Weaving.” A series of ceremonies were completed in 22 locations across the entire April 8th, 2024, eclipse path and fully activated during the total solar eclipse. The work continues and the Dragon is being nurtured. ​​​​

Fannella Collins has worked as an astrologer, a healer and a soul-oriented color consultant. She has many years of study and practice in these fields, as well as psychic development and different spiritual paths. Currently she is a writer and helps others with her wise and grounded support of their Life paths. She has long supported astrologically timed geomantic work and ceremony.

Marilyn Larson is an expert in labyrinths and has designed and overseen the installation of many labyrinths across the United States. She is an artist, an astrologer, and a ceremonialist. Marilyn has studied and worked in France at Chartres Cathedral, in Washington DC, California, as well as Minnesota and other areas. Her art and design are guided by intuition, often without preconceived notions of outcome. The pieces that emerge then begin to tell her their story! Layers of meaning emerge as she does her work and studies the results.
She is involved in a labyrinth collaborative called, the Art Line Project. A group of Labyrinth-keepers noticed the emergence of a string of labyrinths aligned with the 39th parallel of latitude across the United States. The ongoing emergence of the Art Line is replete with meaning, as it reveals itself. Among its Mysteries are that The Serpent Mound is on this alignment and that the star Vega passes directly overhead of these Earthworks! Marylin says that labyrinths evolved as ‘ears on the earth’… places to listen. Labyrinths create a space of symbolic containment that allows our inner and outer perceptions to come into alignment.
To come into alignment… is to dwell in peace.

We have traveled the path of the 04/08/24 solar eclipse to learn and to create ceremony.
Our intention was prayer for the renewal of the United States of America and for all humanity and Mother Earth. Our epic journey took us into an experience of diverse places, people and intersecting timelines across this continent.
​
The story that the land and the ancestors had to tell is nothing short of amazing! I want to continue to share the full story through writing and video to reveal forgotten truths about our past and inspire us to create a better tomorrow for all!
