Channeling the World to Come
A Solstice Ritual on Conscious Co-Creation
with Sukina Noor, Rachel Jamison Webster, and Daniel Foor
Our Invitation
We human folk are meaning-makers, creatures of pattern and story, relational to the core. Cave paintings over 40,000 years old are but a recent record of our entanglement and dreaming here with our many Earth kin.
In this co-woven solstice teaching and guided ritual, participants will be invited to visit their creative and spiritual practices with a focus on conscious partnership with the greater.
Presenters will share from their personal journey of learning to more consciously partner with the ancestors, the Earth, and the unseen, both in their artistic endeavors and in their everyday life.
The approach will be kind, encouraging, and culturally mindful. The intent is for those who join to both feel inspired in their daily lives and creative endeavors and to acquire a new skill or two for partnering with supportive forces.

We’ll explore topics like:
- How can you bring more awareness to the process of sacred co-creation in your daily life and rhythms?
- Which sacred powers in particular are most keen to support your current expression of path and purpose?
- What kinds of unlearning around creativity and ownership will help you to deepen into your passion and calling?
Our time will include:
- Inspired shares from three respected teachers, ritualists, and/or artists
- A guided practice to access personal guidance and honor Solstice rhythms
- Live Q&A with our three esteemed presenters
This session will also touch on themes we’ll explore much more deeply in our upcoming course, Writing with the Dead, which begins on January 11. Co-taught by Rachel Jamison Webster and Daniel Foor, this eight-week course focuses on writing and ritual as practices to facilitate ancestral and cultural healing and reconnection.
We’re hard-wired for conscious partnership with the ancestors, the Earth, and the unseen. This is normal. This is learnable.
