Come enjoy the FireDance
community and find another home in the Bay Area for
your heart songs, your dance, your poetry, your
music. You don not have to be a good singer. You do
not have to know a
single chant. Just bring your enthusiasm and your spark. The Bay Area Spark
Collective is a new flame, kindled from embers carried home from fire circles around the
country
─
an intentional community group that
meets monthly to celebrate spirit, community, and each other. Members and
attendees come from throughout the communities that surround the San Francisco
Bay Area. The gathering begins with a sacred circle:
participants introduce themselves
and share their magic; the four directions are called in; a chant is sung; and a
sacred play begins. From here on out, anything can happen:
drumming, a song, a poem, dancing,
magic, drawing, writing, massage, deep trance. As participants take their turns
around the circle, they stir the container and mix in their magic to create a
synergistic miracle in the space. Everyone listens to what the moment needs. Around 9:30 pm the energy of the circle rises to a fever pitch and then sweetly
winds down. The circle is closed with a chant, an "Om," that releases the four
directions
─
and plenty of hugs.
