Description
Become the transformation and empowerment!
Composting Patriarchyis a gathering where we use our internal powers to manifest external change through dance, fire, and connection.
We begin with a shamanic ceremony, invoking the forces of transformation to replace control, oppression, and violence with the nurturing and fertile energies of the Earth. We gather around the flames with a ceremonial microdose to open the path of personal and collective healing. Surrounded by the natural beauty of trees and the flowing river, we breathe life into the invocation, setting the stage for the unseen.
Through movement and presence, we engage in conscious conversation, reflecting on the ways we wish to embody new ways of being—free from oppressive constructs of patriarchal influence and abundant with respect for all life.
The composting of old, limiting beliefs is initiated.
You will be guided to ecstatic dance, blending indigenous movement techniques and somatic movement that allow for expression, release, and the demonstration of our spirit's strength.
As we dance together, we’ll work on a spiritual level, composting the energies of patriarchal control, violence and oppression into energies of indigenous ethics of Ubuntu, based on care for Earth, each other and oneself.
The process culminates around the fire as we prepare and share a delicious, organic potjiekos dinner cooked over the flames, grounding ourselves in the earth’s nourishment.
Finally, glorious DJ Matt Rose will open the celebration, inviting us to explore our ecstatic beings in dance.

Spiral
The spiral symbolizes constant growth and change. Just like a spiral keeps expanding outwards without end, our spiritual journey involves continuous evolution.
The spiral is a sacred symbol in Mayan culture that represents fertility, the womb, the goddess, and life force energy. It is also a reminder of our connection to nature, our roots, and the transformative power available to us.
Spirals are found in the natural world, in human physiology, plants, minerals, animals, energy patterns, weather, growth, and death.
In rock art, concentric circles and spirals can be interpreted as a water source or as a symbol of migration or traveling.
