Outline for the evening:

One hour cacao ceremony facilitated by Charlotte Bamber

What is a cacao ceremony? The word ceremony comes from the Latin word caerimonia ‘religious worship’, or (plural) ‘ritual observances’. With cacao, we come together to celebrate and honour the new moon, the commencing lunar cycle and the energies that its brings. An opportunity to reflect on your life and how you want to take responsibility for shifts you wish to make, to honour the divine goddesses of Mother Cacao and the Moon.
