Ireland in the Light
Summer Solstice Sojourn
June13Ͳ24,2015
Who?
We are a small, cohesive group of people
willing to share, listen, explore and do
ceremonies together. As we create ritual
at sacred sites, we experience the magic
and mystery of Ireland on a higher level.
We will see and feel energies that we
might not experience on our own, or with
a larger group.
We are called to do this journey. We
desire to honor and feel the energy of the
sacred land. We are spiritual, have the
resources to come, are easy to get along
with and are generally physically fit. We
are warm, generous, kind and honest.
The tour leaders are Susan Norton, a trained shamanic practitioner and healing energy worker.
She holds a masters degree in Education and is skilled at leading workshops and ceremonies in
sacred places around the world. For more about Susan: www.connecting2spirit.com Christine
Murphy is our local Ireland expert, adept at creating for us the opportunities to explore the magic
and wonder of Ireland, first-hand and up close. She has spent years developing the foundation
for this very journey! So we can relax and enjoy, knowing we have two wonderful leaders to
ensure that we will have the Ireland trip of a lifetime.
What?
Experience the magical time of the summer solstice in Ireland in sacred ceremony. Enjoy the
lush, longest days of the year in sacred sites with a very small group of like-minded people.
Experience the energy of the land, of different areas, with an intuitive tour leader and a shamanic
practitioner as your guides. Stay in quaint lodgings, in little villages
and by the sea. You don’t have to plan
where to go, or how to get there. It is
all worked out for you! You can simply
enjoy the experience. This trip is
unique, since it is limited to 6 people
total, we get to go places a larger
group would not, and experience
amazing places off the beaten tourist
path. We will hold fire ceremonies, do
honoring rituals, receive the gifts of the
Munay-ki rites and call in the ancestors
and higher spirit realms as we explore
these sites together. We may see or
feel the presence of faeries and other
mystical energies. We will feel blessed
and connected to this wonderful land.
Ireland in the Light
Summer Solstice Sojourn
June13Ͳ24,2015
When?
During the special time of the summer
solstice. Before the crowds of tourists
arrive, and during the longest days of the
year in Ireland. Twelve glorious days!
June 13 – 24th, 2015
Where?
We will explore the magical southwest of
Ireland. We fly into Shannon airport in
the heart of Ireland, and begin our trip
from there! See the daily itinerary for
more specific details. We will travel out
to islands, be in caves, on hilltops, and in
delightful villages.
We will build community together and
have time on our own as well. We will be
taken care of in a warm and considerate
manner. The lodgings are part of the
experience. Our accommodations will
include B&Bs, hotels and a 3 night stay in
a cottage ~ a combination that gives a full
experience of the warm and caring Irish
hospitality.
Why?
It’s the Ireland trip of a lifetime. The
experiences and friendships we create
will stay with us always. Stepping
beyond the limits and boundaries of
regular ‘trips’. Once we know how to
create ceremony together and receive
the Munay-ki rites, we take this wisdom
back home with us. We will know how
to bring this magic and power into our
daily lives and share it with others. We
will come back transformed.
