Something has been waiting in the dark.

This winter, we’re inviting you to join us for a week-long journey toward the longest night of the year, and the return of the light.

Together, we’ll explore the parts of ourselves that have been hidden, forgotten, or simply not given much attention.

Through dreamwork, movement, meditation, bodywork, journaling, art, and ritual, we’ll make space to notice what’s there and listen to what wants to be seen.

We’re not interested in banishing the darkness.

We want to enter it.

To listen. To notice what we find there. And perhaps to welcome something home.

A week of…

• Dreamwork

• Movement + embodiment

• Meditation

• Journaling

• Art + creative practice

• Tarot + mythology

• Ritual

• Time to reflect

There will be two live gatherings over Zoom, daily practices to explore at home, and an optional mid-week check-in.

The Guides

Sophia + Liz

We met when we were 11 years old and started practicing ritual together as children.

Decades later, we’re still exploring what ritual can offer us at the thresholds of life.

Our paths have taken us through art, Tarot, yoga, social work, Somatic Experiencing®, death care, grief, spirituality, and ritual.

We’re currently creating an oracle deck together about death practices from around the world.

This gathering grows out of that shared practice.

Sophia Litwak is an artist, illustrator, Tarot reader, yoga teacher and ritual leader living in Paris. She is the creator of Discovering Beauty Tarot.

Liz Machado is a social worker, Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner and certified Death Doula living in Florianópolis, Brazil. She works with people and families around trauma, grief, death and major life transitions.
