New Moon in Taurus: Virtual #byot Tea Ceremony

 As the New Moon moves into the sign of Taurus, we will sit with Tea Spirit, set intentions and welcome miracles into our lives. Miracles, that which is our birthright to experience in this beautiful temporary existence of ours on Mother Gaia. We take in Taurus's energy and Beltane's wind of change. Together, this wind will sweep us up in its dance of pleasure and enjoyment, truly sinking our fingers into the sign's love for life by the shamanic powers of Tea, the spirit who has been on Earth since before our forebears have even walked these grounds. 

Social Distancing Update:

Now, as we adjust to these winds of change, we look at serving Tea virtually, instilling stillness and presence of mind across the digital waves. You can still participate by simply finding a quiet corner and sitting in silence with me during the tea ceremony. What you need:

1. Go on Instagram account @Liyinglimmm or Facebook page When Still Waters Speak

2. A bowl or cup is fine too. Prepare a flask or kettle of hot water. 

If you have no loose leaf teas around, simply pour this steaming hot water into the bowl/cup and drink in tandem with me.

3. As you sit in silence you begin to become conscious of the Qi the heat is catalysing within you. Continue to sip on the water/tea, and begin to sink into this meditative silence. The more often we partake in ceremony, the easier we find it to sink into meditation and slowly, this meditative pace and appreciation for the simplest things in life will seep into your daily lives.

After the live session, I will be opening the floor to reflections, questions, and of course, a chat. The bowls, as they come and go during the tea ceremony, is a symbolic mandala of our connection - as we sit together we drop all egos and identities are simply being ourselves, with the conscious awareness that we are also all individuals who will eventually leave this ceremony to go on with our lives. In this moment, it is my honour to sit and connect us all. In this moment that is all that matters - this very moment. 

This ceremony is free for all.
