The Intentions:
Sacred SoulFire empowers individuals to empower themselves and Build
Harmony within the embrace of a consecrated, community supported
Sacred Fire Circle. The elemental alchemy that we co-create at
SoulFire provides you with the opportunity to co-create and maintain
an environment that encourages you to grow into your full potential.

Within the Sacred All Night Fire Circle we can push past limitations -
embody our highest visions of self expression – drum and dance to our
hearts content - give service to the collective - receive gifts of
spirit and soul from the collective -
have fun - co-create and share an ordeal - build harmony within the
self and the collective - and to greet the dawn - all in community.

The Process:
The unique and eclectic elemental approach of Sacred SoulFire invites
you to go deep into your heart as you go deep into the night. In the
afternoons, you are invited to join an Elemental Group to explore one
of the 5 topics offered. All Elemental Groups support the sacred all
night fire circle. Whether thru the expressions of drumming & music,
dancing and chanting, spoken word and visual art, or the manifestation
of harmony in our lives and in our world, the all night fire circle
and the Elemental Groups help to guide us on a mystical journey that
rhythmically re-awakens our potential.

The Commitments:
Conscious Collaborations will instigate a space where we can co-create
a rhythmic, art based, ecstatic temple of transmutation. We promise to
encourage you; to put the tools into your hands and help you learn how
to use them. We promise to show up and meet the community, where the
community is, and help make this joyful experience for all present.

Sacred SoulFire is dedicated to helping the heart of humanity heal,
One Fire At A Time. We show up with the commitment to dance with the
spirits and co-create a container where we can individually and
collectively explore Shamanism, Conscious Evolution and Sacred Fire
Circle Play. We promise to do this in a way that is inclusive, mindful
and elemental in nature.

Core Collaborators
We invite folks we know to be movers and shakers in the larger Fire
Circle Family to be involved in SSF. SoulFire's Elemental Fire Circle

rhythm, the chant, the art, the dance, etc, etc, etc.

new found friends to step up and follow their hearts in ways that are
supportive of the collective (and the individuals in the collective).

make room for everyone to connect within the elemental nature the

Blackbyrd, you are awesome. I can't even begin to tell you what a super fun time hanging out with you last weekend and I've carried so much of the experience home with me. I'm missing the energy (and the trees) already. Blessings in everything you do.

if a homemade cherry pie right out of the oven could sing like an angel and play piano like a mudder fugger, then you'd have to call it BlackByrd!

A powerful force of light in the world, she has shared with me the responsibility of knowing our true nature and the duty we have toward one another to express our unity of purpose and being.

when BlackByrd's Singing in the dead of night, she gives comfort to the moon and stars and sends such sweet dreams to the sleeping sun that it finds motivation to rise in the morning.

she's hip, fun, funky, funny... a bright woman able to stand strong in her convictions and also expose her tender and vulnerable heart in song and in friendship.

although she refuses to try a SPAM and tequila cocktail, she can still be an altered girl in Pope Shady's congregation any day.

she's a gem and she's brought many smiles to my face in the short time i've known her. spirit willin' and the creek don't rise, i look forward to many more years of smiles.
