The Space Between ~


Spring is the space between Winter's rest and Summer's action.


Beltane is the midpoint between Spring's Equinox and Summer's Solstice.


This moment is the space among anything and everything that once was absolute and is, at the same time, dissolving and evolving into what's next. 


At any given time, we can hold the full vantage point ~ seeing all around us, behind and ahead.


Sometimes there is a chosen pause; the space carved out as an intentional time to reflect, honor, and release what was before moving forward.


Sometimes there is the 'fight, flight, or freeze' response where we idle then stall; anchored by the weight of abundance among grief and sorrow, hope and possibilities; before doing anything at all.


This is where it can take a village. Positioning ourselves carefully among others can create a supportive environment for the allowance of our feelings; we need both places AND people to practice vulnerability.


The land at Sky Pond has always set the stage to steadily hold us; but it is the comfort among community that evokes the softness for emotions to come forth and move through.


This month, hosts are here to meet you at the threshold of wherever you may be. There is no urgency to change, just support if you want to, or people to stand with while you bide your time. Here for your grief, your healing, your empowerment, your creativity, your remembrance ~ Join us on this land, in community, or contact these trusted practitioners directly to schedule your own time to meet by the Pond.

For new or seasoned hosts seeking inspiration, support, or a co-facilitator for future events

Wherever you are among life's cycles and circles, allow yourself to pause and be still. Our ankles are adorned in the tendrils from of roots our past; even when arms extend out, palms wide, to receive what awaits ahead.


Know that this land and community are here to support you until there is strength to uproot one's footing and step towards what is longed for next.


Together among beginnings and endings and each space in between, we thank you for being the people of this place, for being the magic that is Sky Pond, and we look forward to seeing you soon.


In Love & Light,

Sean & Miriam Anderson
