With Trillium Awakening East Teachers

Splashing Moon is a reflection of how consciousness meets lived experience. The moon has long symbolized awareness—clear, reflective and ever-present. When it appears undisturbed, it shines perfectly on still water. But when the water is in motion, the moon seems to shimmer, break and scatter. In the same way, our lives are the “splashing”—the movements of emotion, thought, relationship and circumstance. These sittings are a space where we recognize that consciousness is present within all of it. Conscious Embodiment, where realization is no longer something to access, but something that is lived as emotion, thought, relationship and circumstance.

Come and join us in this beautiful exploration of Being.
