SUMMARY:VIRTUAL EVENT! January New Moon REFLECTIONS
DESCRIPTION:IMPORTANT: This is NOT an actual event and will not be held at any designated place and time. Please do not come to Kinstone for this virtual event.\n\n\n \n\n\nTHIS IS A VIRTUAL EVENT\, a PLACEHOLDER FOR YOU for the January New Moon – please use the theme and information below to help you celebrate and  honor the new moon from your own place\, on your own time\, and in your own way this month!\n\n\nJanuary Theme: Awakened Visionary: My dreams come to life. \nAstrology: Aquarius (Air sign\, ruled by Uranus and Saturn). \nKeywords: Curious\, imaginative\, generous\, humanitarian\, innovative\, inspired service\, purposeful\, revolutionary\, free-thinking. \n\nThis new moon in Aquarius is all about expansive visions of what you want to create in your life and for the world. It’s a powerful time to connect to the dreams alive in your heart — as impossible as you may think they are — and choose to share them with those closest to you. With the Sun\, Moon\, and Mercury all in Aquarius\, air energy is stirring up and manifesting as the winds of change. How will you greet them? With just a few weeks into this new year\, and potent Aquarian energy\, we are blessed with the chance to bring bold new visions and progressive changes into our lives and our world. \nThis is the first new moon of the decade and also the Chinese New Year. It invites us to set our intentions\, dreams\, and goals for 2020 and for the next ten years. Whatever you felt you wanted with all your heart just a few weeks ago on New Year’s Day may already be shifting (hello\, winds of change!). Aquarius brings an energy of rethinking and reimagining — and of dreaming big! Allow yourself to dream not only of new and exciting ventures\, but also of solutions to problems; both personal and global. Because Aquarius is the water-bearer and the humanitarian of the zodiac\, this is a powerful time to consider how our visions impact our communities and social circles. It’s time to give back\, and your heart’s inner vision holds the wisdom of exactly what gifts to give; all we need to do is create space to listen on this new moon. \nReflection prompts: \n\nDo you have any negative beliefs about your ability to manifest your dreams into reality? If so\, what are they?\nThink of a time you manifested something in your life. Was it intentional or unintentional? What did you learn about the process of manifestation? What worked well for you?\nWhat is your relationship to your inner visionary and inner dreamer? Do you encourage her\, believe in her\, trust her\, and listen to her? Or is that a relationship you need to work on healing?\nWhat was a dream you had as a little girl for yourself or for the world?\nIf you had a magic wand\, what is one thing you would change about the world?\nDo you have a project\, vision\, or idea that inspires you that will help birth a new world?\nWhat is your wildest dream for yourself?\nWhat is your experience with manifestation? Share any wisdom\, tips\, or tricks with your sisters.\n\nUpcoming 2020 Kinstone Women’s Circle Event Dates: \nVirtual Event: Sunday\, February 23 – Pisces: Feminine Intelligence: I trust my intuitive wisdom \nSunday\, March 8 – International Women’s Day:  #EachforEqual: An equal world is an enabled world. \nTuesday\, March 24 – Aries: Fierce Love: I stand in my power with clear boundaries \nWednesday\, April 22 – Taurus: Redefining Beauty: My body\, my rules \nFriday\, May 22 – Gemini: Free the Voice: I speak my truth \nSunday\, June 21 (Father’s Day) – Cancer: Liberation Through Forgiveness: I let go\, I set myself free \nMonday\, July 20 – Cancer:  theme to be announced! (second moon in Cancer for 2020!) \nTuesday\, August 18 – Leo: Fearlessly Me: I let myself be seen \nThursday\, September 17 – Virgo: Sovereign Woman: I rise beyond society’s expectations \nFriday\, October 16 – Libra: Restoring Balance: Healing masculine and feminine \nVirtual Event: Saturday\, November 14 – Scorpio: Sacred Sexuality: My pleasure\, my power \nVirtual Event: Monday\, December  14 – Sagittarius: The Heroine’s Journey: I share my story in service to others \nTHERE ARE NO IN-PERSON CIRCLE GATHERINGS at Kinstone in NOVEMBER\, DECEMBER\, JANUARY\, and FEBRUARY. We post “Virtual Events” for these months instead for you to do on your own. \n(Looking forward into 2021: IWD is Monday\, March 8\, 2021) \nPhoto credit: Kristine Beck

SUMMARY:VIRTUAL EVENT! December New Moon Women's Circle
DESCRIPTION:IMPORTANT: This is NOT an actual event and will not be held at any designated place and time. Please do not come to Kinstone for this virtual event.\n\n\n \n\n\nTHIS IS A VIRTUAL EVENT\, a PLACEHOLDER FOR YOU – please use the theme and information below to help you celebrate and  honor the new moon from your own place\, on your own time\, and in your own way this month!\n\nTheme: Self mastery; I review my year and integrate it’s wisdom \nAstrology: Capricorn\, an Earth sign\, ruled by Saturn. Keywords: Dependable\, sophisticated\, resourceful\, wise\, responsible\, loyal\, disciplined\, patient\, ambitious\, practical\, cautious. \nAs the year comes to an end\, this new moon provides us with an opportunity for integration and completion. It reflects to us our progress\, the myriad ways we have grown\, and our most important learnings. Use this sacred time to create space for self-reflection so that the year that is coming to a close is honored and all the rich lessons experienced throughout that year are merged into the fabric of our souls as we move across the threshold to a new year and a new decade. \nThis new moon falls on the auspicious day of Christmas (the astrological celebration of the resurrection of the sun from the Southern Cross)\, and it also happens to be a Solar Eclipse. Talk about powerful energy! Because Capricorn is a very resourceful\, wise\, responsible\, and ambitious sign\, this new moon invites us to remember the importance of being devoted and disciplined to self-growth and inner work. \nReflection prompts: \n\nready to burn\, compost\, or re-write? How do these need to shift in order to be aligned with your current soul’s needs\, values\, and priorities?\nWhat is a realization you have had recently that shifted something for you in your life? Share this wisdom with your sisters.\nWhat does your soul desire to bring forth this new year? Listen deeply as you answer this question — you may surprise yourself.\nDo you create enough time in your schedule for self-reflection and inner work? If not\, how can you implement changes that provide you the space you need?\nWhat are your favorite self-love practices? What are your favorite self-reflection practices? What are your favorite solo practices for inner-work and healing?\n\nReminder: There are no in person gatherings for the Kinstone New Moon women’s circles during November\, December\, January\, and February. We post “Virtual Events” for these months instead.  \nOur next in person event will be on March 8 for International Women’s Day – weather / COVID19 permitting – stay tuned to this website and our FB page for updates. \nPhoto credit: Kristine Beck

SUMMARY:Winter Solstice Sunrise Observance 2019
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the passing of the seasons from Autumn to Winter. Come acknowledge the Winter Solstice  by watching the sunrise with us and seeing the alignment in the Great Stone Circle at Kinstone! \nCOST: Free\, No Registration Required \nDate: Saturday\, December 21\, 2019  Time: 7:30 am – 8:00am  (Sunrise Gathering) \nIMPORTANT: Arrive 10 minutes early and meet at the Education Center! We will decide at the last minute if we go out to the circle or if we stay indoors. \nWeather and conditions permitting\, we will proceed to the center of the Great Stone Circle at Kinstone. Given fair weather and clear skies\, we will watch the sun as it crests the ridge and beams through the Chair Stones to light up anyone standing in the middle of the circle.  We will hear the story of the Chair Stones and how they are connected to the family of Kinstone. Given cloudy or rainy/snowy weather\, we will not see the sunrise\, but will greet it ceremoniously regardless! This will be a quiet\, meditative event with a short opening rite and reading. Witness the arrival of Winter. Send Autumn on its way with blessings. This observance will last only 30 minutes; however\, there will be coffee\, tea\, and hot cocoa in the Education Center afterwards. Please join us! \nThis event is planned to be held outdoors and will be held rain\, snow or shine. Please note that we will not see the alignment if it is cloudy or if the horizon is obstructed by morning mist\, fog\, rain\, snow or clouds. If it is raining or snowing\, or if the snow on the ground is too deep for walking through\, we may gather indoors in the Kinstone Education Center. \nCancellation will occur in case of a major storm. Cancellations will be posted on THIS event page and on the Facebook event ONLY at least 1 hour before the scheduled start time for this event. \nDress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear\, scarves\, hats\, extra layers and gloves! Expect it to be colder and windier than you think! \nParking is limited – especially in winter. Please park in the small lot by the Education Center (Staff Parking area) if necessary and be prepared to walk some distance through snow to get to the circle! Note: we highly discourage parking along the road\, however; if you absolutely must park along the road due to snow in our Staff and Visitor Parking areas\, please make sure you put on your 4-way flashing lights while parked there for this short event. \n[Interesting fact: The exact time of the astronomical Winter Solstice is Saturday\, December 21\, 2019 at 10:19pm CDT.] \n

SUMMARY:Samhain - A Potluck and Poetry Bonfire

On November 1\, in the space between years called “no-time\,” we will gather by the fire to share stories\, poems and a potluck feast. This is the last hurrah before winter sets in when we hunker down for the season of darkness and cold. \nWe invite you to revel in the enjoyment of Autumn’s bountiful harvest with us at Kinstone. The wheel of the year keeps turning; the sun has already begun to sleep in later each morning and leave us in darkness earlier each evening. We will emulate the ancients with a community fire and potluck feast. We will take time to remember our ancestors and those who have died. We will celebrate our children and those who are new-born. Everyone who wishes to may share their original poetry by reading it out loud around the fire. Costumes are encouraged\, but optional. Dress warmly! Wear a headlamp! Hot beverages will be served! \nWhat: Samhain Potluck Feast\, Poetry Readings and Bonfire at Kinstone \nDate: Friday\, November 1\, 2019 \nTime: 5:30pm  (Note: the end time is flexible and dependent upon the number of poets; likely ending by 10pm) \nCOST/TICKETS:  $10/person – a ticket is required for entry!

Limited attendance\, get your ticket early! \nLocation: Stargazer Circle at Kinstone – OUTDOORS! \nWhat to bring:  this is a potluck feast; bring a dish to pass as well as a serving spoon/ladle\, etc if required for your dish; there will not be electricity for plugging in any appliances\, so plan accordingly! \nWhat is provided by Kinstone:   \n\na sacred space in which to gather\nwater and hot beverages including coffee\, tea\, and cider\nplates/bowls/cups/forks/spoons/napkins (ALL are compostable!)\n\nWhat to wear:  Costumes are welcome (disguise yourself so the monsters that roam across “the veil” do not recognize you and take you off to the Otherworld!) and wear very WARM clothes\, wool socks\, boots\, mittens\, hats\, scarves! Wear a headlamp!  \nIMPORTANT: This event will be held rain or shine! If weather is bad we will meet around a small firepit on the Porch and also open the Kinstone Education Center. No refunds! \nRead on to find out more about Samhain and our Samhain Celebration! \nSamhain is a festival originating from ancient Celtic spiritual traditions. It is the time between the old Celtic year and the new Celtic year.  It is usually celebrated for 3 days and 3 nights around All Hallow’s Eve (Halloween\, Oct 31)\, All Saints Day (Nov1) and All Soul’s Day (Nov 2). It is also called the Feast of the Dead. Since this short time period does not seem to fall into either the old or the new Celtic calendar year\, it has been called “no-time”.  Some consider the time between Samhain and the start of the new year as a time which does not even exist on the Earthly plane. The “time which is no time” was considered to be both very magical and very dangerous. This was the time to bring home the harvest and usher in the “dark half of the year.” It was a time when the veil between this world and the Otherworld was thought to be so thin that the dead could return to sit at the hearths of the living\, and some of the living – especially poets – were able to enter the Otherworld as well. \nOther Interesting Tidbits about Samhain: \n\nSamhain is one of the four quarterly fire festivals on the ancient Celtic calendar. The others are Imbolc\, Beltain\, and Lughnasadh – these are also called cross-quarter days as they take place at the midpoint between Equinoxes and Solstices. Samhain takes place at the midpoint between the Autumnal Equinox and the Winter Solstice.\nIn ancient times\, loved ones who had recently died were remembered and their spirits invited to join the living in the celebratory feast. It was also a time at which those born during the past year were formally welcomed into the community. A community fire was lit and participants took a flame or coal from the communal bonfire back to their home to re-light their own hearth which had gone cold while they were out harvesting. People prepared offerings for the ancestors and for any fairies or other beings of the Otherworld. They would dress in disguise as animals or monsters to no otherworldly being would kidnap them. This is a major source of our modern day Halloween traditions.\nIn the Middle Ages bonfires were lit to protect families and farms from fairies and witches and carved turnips with a glowing coal were made and called jack-o-lanterns! A supper was prepared and enjoyed after inviting ancestors to join the meal giving families a chance to interact with the spirits of the dead and update them on the past year’s news until after the meal was over when the spirits left.\nTrick-or-treating is said to come from ancient Irish and Scottish practices in the nights leading up to Samhain. In Ireland\, “mumming” was the practice of putting on costumes\, going door-to-door and singing songs to the dead. Cakes were given as payment. Pranks also became popular and were typically blames on the fairies.\n\nOn this day we will rejoice as we gather to enjoy the fruits of summer labor and all that has been gathered\, preserved and stored up in preparation for the chill of winter. In “no-time” at all the land will be asleep under a crystal coverlet of white. Join us!

SUMMARY:Ribbons of Intention Fire Ceremony 2019
DESCRIPTION:Ribbons of Intention Fire Ceremony\n\n\n\n\nOctober 4 is the date designated as The Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi. On this date each year we remove the ribbons that are tied to the Tree of Intention (a.k.a. Prayer Tree) in the Kinstone Chapel of Creation and burn them in the fire pit in the Stargazer Circle\, releasing the prayers and intentions written there\, to the Universe. This special event is marked by a brief ceremony that is free and open to the public. \nRibbon Ceremony – 4:30pm – 6:30pm \nWe gather around the Tree of Intention in the Kinstone Chapel of Creation to begin this ceremony. All of the ribbons on the Tree represent intentions left there by visitors to Kinstone over the past year. All those in attendance today will participate in a short service to raise up all the intentions in prayer. Immediately thereafter\, we will all work at removing each ribbon from the Tree and place them into a basket. The basket of ribbons is then set at the feet of the little statue of St. Francis outside the chapel in a symbolic expression of gratitude for the holding of these prayers this year. \nThen\, gathered around the empty Tree\, we will say The Peace Prayer of St. Francis as a single red ribbon\, with the intention for world peace inscribed upon it.  At this time\, everyone present is invited to take a ribbon if they wish\, inscribe a new intention upon it for the coming year and tie it to the tree. A new season has begun! \nThe basket of ribbons is then carried with respect and honor to the Stargazer Circle where a fire is already burning in the fire pit. When gathered there\, we create a sacred space for this ceremony around the fire. We speak of Saint Francis and the significance of his story and how it relates to the Kinstone story. We read stories about him and prayers that are attributed to him. We state our purpose in burning the ribbons; we profess our willingness to release attachment to the outcome and express profound gratitude that our needs will be provided for in creative and sometimes unexpected ways.  The ribbons are then put into the fire\, releasing all the prayers\, all the intentions\, to the Universe. We end by saying a prayer of thanksgiving. \nIf you are interested in participating\, just show up. No registration is required. There is no fee. \n\nIMPORTANT: If you wish to wander the grounds of Kinstone outside of this event\, please plan to pay your regular admission. Thank you.

SUMMARY:Autumn Equinox SUNSET Observance - Time to Catch the Sun
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we gather to observe the sunset alignment at Kinstone in celebration of the Autumnal Equinox. We will gather near the stones known as Lancelot and Atlas for a short opening rite and reading.  Sunset is at 7:02pm according to the charts\, but is often different when on  the ridge\, so we will begin watching for opportunities to Catch the Sun at 6:30! \nGiven fair weather and clear skies as the sun sets in the West\, we will witness the light as it passes through the “Wise One” (Lancelot) and enlightens the “World” (Atlas). If the sun light is strong enough and unobstructed by clouds on the horizon\, we will see a line of polka-dots on Atlas and a select few folks may be able to “catch the sun” as it aligns with the perforations in the Wise One. Given cloudy or rainy weather\, we will not see the sunset\, but will greet it ceremoniously regardless! \nCOST: Free\, No Registration Required \nDate: Monday\, September 23\, 2019  Time: 6:30pm – 7:30pm: Sunset Observance and Catching of the Sun \nLocation: near the stones known as Atlas and Lancelot at Kinstone \nIf you wish to be given a chance to “catch the sun”\, please Contact Us to sign up by sending an email stating “I want to catch the sun” and include your full name\, email address and phone number with the subject “Catch the sun”. Guests who have signed up will be called in order of sign-up time – as many as we can get through will be given a chance to be photographed with their hands catching the sun – only if weather and sunset conditions permit the phenomenon to occur! \nThis event is outdoors and will be held rain or shine. Please note that we will not see the alignment if it is cloudy or if the horizon is obstructed by evening mist\, fog or clouds. If it is raining\, we may gather indoors inside the Kinstone Education Center. Cancellation will occur in case of a major storm. Dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear\, raincoats\, scarves\, hats and gloves if chilly or wet! \nInteresting fact: The exact time of the Autumnal Equinox is Monday\, September 23\, 2019 at 2:50am CDT.  \nIMPORTANT: If you wish to wander the grounds of Kinstone outside of this event\, please plan to pay your regular admission. Thank you.

SUMMARY:Autumnal Equinox SUNRISE Observance
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the passing of the seasons from Summer to Autumn. We will celebrate at sunrise on the Autumnal Equinox as we look to see the equinox sunrise alignment between sun and stone here at Kinstone!\n\n\nCOST: Free\, No Registration Required (NOTE: If you plan to walk around Kinstone after this event\, please plan to pay the $5 admission fee.) \nDate: Monday\, September 23\, 2019   Time: 6:30am – 7:30am (at Sunrise) \nLocation: The Three Witnesses Sculpture at Kinstone \nCome experience the Autumnal Equinox sunrise as we gather in the center of The Three Witnesses sculpture at Kinstone. Given fair weather and clear skies\, we will watch the sun as it crests the ridge and beams through the Equinox Window to light up the heart of the middle “witness”. Given cloudy or rainy weather\, we will not see the sunrise\, but will greet it ceremoniously regardless! This will be a quiet\, meditative event with a short opening rite and reading. \nAfter our readings\, if the sun is visible\, participants may wish to look at the alignment through the Equinox Window\, see the heart highlighted in the center stone Witness\, sit in the light of the sun\, take photos\, and greet the sunrise. We will witness the arrival of Autumn and send Summer on its way with our blessings. This gathering will last about 45 minutes to one hour. Actual sunrise is at 6:54am. However\, with the topography specific to Kinstone and the fields and trees in our view\, the time we witness it is always somewhat different. \nThis event is outdoors and will be held rain or shine. Please note that we will not see the alignment if it is cloudy or if the horizon is obstructed by early morning mist\, fog or clouds. If it is raining\, we may gather indoors inside the Kinstone Education Center. Cancellation will occur in case of a major storm. Dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear\, scarves\, hats and gloves if chilly! \nInteresting fact: The exact time of the Autumnal Equinox is Monday\, September 23\, 2019 at 2:50am CDT.  \n\nIMPORTANT: If you wish to wander the grounds of Kinstone outside of this event\, please plan to pay your regular admission.

Using the pillars of mindfulness (i.e. non-judgment\, self-compassion\, patience\, beginner’s mind\, trust\, non-striving\, acceptance\, letting go) as the foundation for exploration\, together we will journey outdoors\, like pilgrims\, along The Way of the Stones\, connecting to the Earth and with the Divine in each step. We will visit the Chapel of Creation\, Stone Circle\, Labyrinth\, Dolmen of Remembrance\, Serpent of Transformation\, The Three Witnesses\, Stargazer Circle and other sacred spaces around Kinstone. As we walk the land\, we will take time at each of these stone spaces\, studying\, discussing and practicing the pillars of mindfulness meditation. The natural spaces under the open sky and these incredible standing stones help us to examine and illuminate our inner study and bring us more into alignment with the life we authentically want to live. \n  \nAdditional details: Rain or Shine. Dress for the weather and wear sturdy walking shoes. Suggested items to bring: umbrellas for shade or rain\, journals\, drawing materials\, jacket\, yoga mat or blanket for personal meditation times\, sunscreen and insect repellent. \n  \nAbout your facilitators: \nKristine Beck is the founder\, creator and director of Kinstone in Fountain City\, Wisconsin.

In this space we are free to celebrate our individuality as well as our collective strength\, fearlessness\, nurturing\, healing and gifts. We end with a shared meal and informal conversations around the tables. Come as you are. It is free to participate; however\, we do share a meal and if you want to eat\, we ask a $5 donation for a meal. Join us! Please share these events with other women who may be interested.

SUMMARY:A Kirtan Experience in the Stone Circle
DESCRIPTION:Come experience KIRTAN with us and even sing along here at Kinstone in our beautiful stone circle. Lotus Head\, a transcendental lounge and kirtan band from Viroqua Wisconsin will lead us in this enchanting musical encounter. They will perform mostly original kirtan compositions designed to assist us in connecting with our wholeness. Be ready to raise your vibrations with their mystical music\, ancient chants and powerful affirmations. \nJai Lynn leads with lyrics\, harmonium and percussion. She will guide us into harmony. Monte plays gong and drums (as well as bass and piano when power is available!); he has over 30 years of musical experience. Together Jai Lynn and Monte create an awakening and transcendental experience. \nCome enjoy! \nSo\, you may ask\, WHAT IS KIRTAN???  Read on… \nKirtan is music. It may be quite a different kind of music than you are used to. It comes from India and largely consists of mantras or chants sung by a leader and then repeated by the audience. It’s a kind of sing-a-long. Many of the songs are sung in Sanskrit and are based on ancient chants. Since you do not know the words\, you can immerse yourself in the music and quiet your mind. It can be a very meditative and magical experience. \nThe following italicized text is quoted from Kitzie Stern\, producer of the podcast\, New World Kirtan: \n“What is Kirtan? \n\n\n\n\n\nIt began in India centuries ago as a spiritual practice\, and was known as the layman’s way to connect with the Divine.\nIn the last ten years\, kirtan has become a phenomenon across the United States\, and has transformed musically to appeal to the ears of American audiences.\nKirtan is a new kind of concert experience here in the West.  It’s not so much a performance as a journey into the self through the practice of listening & singing.  The leaders at a kirtan concert are called wallahs\, and everyone is part of the music.  My all-time favorite descriptions of a kirtan concert: “It’s like singing around a campfire”\, “It’s like a hootenanny with meditation.”\nWhile singing along at a kirtan concert\, you can experience your own voice becoming as beautiful as those performing—all voices merge together to become One Voice.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKirtan is a very simple & powerful way to meditate.  It’s effortless & joyful; the music does the work for you as you flow with the melody & rhythm.\nThe performers & the concert-goers create the experience together.\nThe chants are sung in Sanskrit unless you attend a Sikh kirtan ( e.g. Snatam Kaur).  The ancient chants contain powerful renewing & transformative energy that helps us reconnect with the Divinity that resides within all of us.\nSinging is the heart of kirtan\, and no one cares what you sound like.  At a kirtan concert all voices merge together to become One Voice.\nKirtan is non-denominational\, the Universal language of Spirit\, the song of the Soul.”\n\n\n\nIMPORTANT: This is a non-smoking\, alcohol free\, kid-friendly event. This event will be held rain or shine. If the weather is not ideal for outdoor listening we will hold this event inside the Kinstone Education Center. No refunds. \nDate:  Friday\, June 28\, 2019  Time:  6:00 pm Tickets:  $12.00 up to 24 hours in advance\, $15.00 at the door. Kids 12 & under are FREE but must be accompanied by an adult registered for the event! \nPurchase tickets through Eventbrite by clicking HERE or by clicking on the link labeled “Website:”  in the right-hand column on this page; your printed receipt is required for entry. \nPay at the door (cash only) is possible but requires a reservation in advance\, so if you plan to come and pay at the door please CONTACT US to register! Advanced payment is preferred. \nNOTICE:  Bring your own chair or blanket to sit on. Dress for the weather and bring your own insect repellent and/or sunscreen if needed. A flashlight may be helpful if you stay until dark. Park in designated parking areas. Upon arrival\, proceed to the Stone Circle (or the Education Center Classroom if raining). \nABOUT LOTUS HEAD \nLotus Head is a transcendental lounge and kirtan band from Viroqua Wisconsin. They perform mostly original kirtan compositions designed to assist the audience in connecting with their wholeness. Lotus Head events are also designed to increase the audience’s manifesting abilities by raising their vibrations with the music\, ancient chants and new powerful affirmations. Lotus Head works with both traditional and esoteric rhythms combined with mystical melodies and lyrics. Jai Lynn leads with lyrics\, harmonium and percussion. She will guide the audience into harmony. Monte plays gong\, bass\, piano and drums.  He has over 30 years of musical experience.

SUMMARY:Summer Solstice Sunrise Observance
DESCRIPTION:Every Summer Solstice\, we stand and greet the sun as it enters the Kinstone Circle at sunrise. You are invited to join us as we recognize the passing of the seasons from Spring to Summer in this auspicious and sacred stone place. \nWe will gather at 5:15 am to be ready to witness the rising of the sun – actual sunrise is at 5:23am but it is usually 5:30 before it visible in the stone circle. Given fair weather and a clear horizon\, we will watch the sun as it crests the ridge and is ushered through the Summer Solstice Corridor into the circle. It will set its golden glow upon anyone standing in the middle of the circle. Further\, it will cast the shadow of those persons standing there onto the stone directly in the path of the sun. This stone happens to be the marker for the exact point of WINTER Solstice SUNSET!  Isn’t that fun fact!? Truly magical! \nGiven cloudy weather\, we will not see the sunrise or the shadow\, but will greet it ceremoniously regardless! This will be a quiet\, meditative event with a short opening rite and reading. Witness the arrival of Summer. Send Spring on its way with blessings. This gathering will last about 45 minutes. Although the actual sunrise is at 5:23am\, the topography of Kinstone means it will be just a little different. Be there early\, just in case! Feel free to arrive as early as 5:00am if you so wish. \nCOST: Free\, No Registration Required\, Family Friendly\, No Pets \nDate: Friday\, June 21\, 2019   Time: 5:15 am – 6:15am \nThis event is outdoors and will be held rain or shine. Please note that we will not see the alignment if it is cloudy or if the horizon is obstructed by morning mist\, fog\, rain\, or clouds. If it is raining or storming we shall gather indoors in the Kinstone Education Center. Dress for the weather\, be prepared for a dewy walk in grass; wear appropriate footwear\, scarves\, hats\, a blanket\, and even gloves if needed! Bring your own insect repellent if you wish! \nInteresting fact: The exact time of the Summer Solstice is Friday\, June 21\, 2019 at 10:54am CDT.

Thank you.” \n“Today [at the True Love Experience] I cleared past trauma\, hurt\, anger\, and everything that doesn’t serve a purpose anymore in my life. IT FEELS AMAZING! It was hard work\, painful\, challenging. I cried the hardest I’ve cried in my life. It was a major release\, beautiful energy transformation. I AM READY to fully step into my spiritual gifts. I forever have LOVE\, gratitude for Kristine Kieland and Mary Bauer for helping me step into my new phase and energy.” \n“I’ve had HUGE awarenesses since the event. I own my thoughts now. I have a new way of thinking and not projecting. It feels much better. Thanks for doing the work you both do.” \n“This was such a loving\, safe\, and needed experience for me. I was able to let go of past trauma and move forward in my journey. The joy I felt afterward had me giggling like a kid again! Thank you Mary and Kristine for this experience…it truly was AMAZING!” \n“An amazing event! I feel like the weight of the world was lifted from me.” \n“Just WOW. I feel totally transformed!! The guided meditation\, the breathwork\, and the healing was MIND BLOWING!!! I feel like a new person/soul\, thank you lovely healers for helping me remember who I TRULY AM!” \n“The True Love Experience helped me clear guilt\, unworthiness\, fear\, and grief\, but also helped clear so many things from my childhood to teenage years to young adult years\, and I’m so ready to clear and release more so I can truly live in TRUE LOVE.” \n“I went back to the womb during my True Love Experience and healed everything from that point forward. I used the name exercise that was taught\, and visualized my name as I called my energy back. I started seeing ‘Diane’ spelled with 1 N instead of my lifelong 2 N’s. The name on my birth certificate is spelled with 1 N\, but I’ve never spelled it that way. Weirder still\, when I type my signature on emails now\, I’m suddenly missing the second N and have to go back and add it. I’ve never misspelled my own name! It’s a bit scary but feels right too\, as if this is another part of who I’ve always been that is just now revealing itself. My awareness is that I can no longer live with anything less than my authentic nature.”\n__________________________________________________ \nPRESENTERS: \nKRISTINE KIELAND\nKristine is a multi-discipline intuitive teacher\, healer\, and coach.

It begins each year with an event in conjunction with International Women’s Day (March 8) and continues each month on the day of the New Moon through November! \nAll women are invited to this circle\, especially women who desire to create supportive relationships with other women\, women who are feeling overwhelmed or stressed and are looking for some rejuvenation\, and women who are looking for ways to find and express the Sacred in their daily lives. \nIn circle\, we join in a short heart meditation\, then we have a time for personal sharing – feelings\, questions\, truths\, stories\, poems\, and more. In this space we are free to celebrate our individuality as well as our collective strength\, fearlessness\, nurturing\, healing and gifts. We end with a shared meal and informal conversations around the tables. Come as you are. It is free to participate; however\, we do share a meal and if you want to eat\, we ask a $5 donation for a meal. Join us! Please share these events with other women who may be interested. Thank you! \nKinstone has some amazing sacred spaces and we like to use them as much as possible. We may gather in the large Stone Circle\, Three Witnesses circle\, Star Gazer Circle\, Circle of Mystery or other outdoor sacred place at Kinstone (weather permitting). If weather is uncooperative\, we meet in our beautiful classroom space in the Education Center. \nAll women are invited\, especially women who are desiring to create supportive relationships with other women\, women who are feeling overwhelmed or stressed and are looking for some rejuvenation\, and women who are looking for ways to find and express the Sacred in their daily lives.  \nDate(s): The evening of each NEW MOON March through November – see the list of dates below. We do NOT meet in December\, January or February unless otherwise posted. \nTime: 6:00pm to 8:00pm \nPlace:  Kinstone Circle\, S3439 Cole Bluff Lane\, Fountain City\, Wisconsin 54629\, USA. When the timing of sunset and weather permitting\, we gather outdoors in one of the special places at Kinstone so please dress appropriately for being outside for an hour or longer. Wear layers and bring a scarf since it is nearly always windy on the ridge. We gather first and end with a shared meal for those who wish to stay.  In case of bad weather\, we meet inside the Kinstone Education Center. \nCost: FREE to attend\, but bring $5 for a simple meal if you are partaking. (Note: this is an increase for 2019!) \nMEAL: Simple food (varies each time) is available for any who wish to partake; cost is $5/person.

SUMMARY:Equinox Evening: Sunset and Moonrise - Vernal Equinox Observance
DESCRIPTION:THIS is an EVENING event to see our SUNSET ALIGNMENT (there is a separate event for morning to see our sunrise alignment). \nSpring Equinox is one of those astronomically significant solar events when the sun is midpoint in its journey between the Summer and Winter Solstices. It is traditionally seen as a time of balance. The light of day and the dark of night are equal. It is a time for new beginnings\, growth\, and seeking the joy of the light. At Kinstone we have a unique ALIGNMENT between the setting sun and the stones known as Atlas and Lancelot that is visible during the SUNSET on Equinox. Come and see! \nJoin us to celebrate the passing of the seasons from Winter to Spring. Celebrate the warming of the Earth and the long awaited time for putting out new growth from the long winter’s root work that has been underway. We will celebrate together at sunset! \nSPECIAL CELESTIAL EVENT in 2019: There is a FULL MOON on the same day as the Vernal Equinox!! Weather permitting\, we will see a marvelous moonrise as well as a wonderful sunset this evening!   \nCOST: Free\, No Registration Required \nDate: Wednesday\, March 20   Time: 6:45pm – 7:45pm \n\n\nCome experience the Vernal Equinox sunset (and MOONRISE!) as we gather near the stones known as Lancelot and Atlas for a short opening rite and reading. Given fair weather and clear skies as the sun sets in the West\, we will witness the light as it passes through the “Wise One” (Lancelot) and enlightens the “World” (Atlas). If the sun light is strong enough and unobstructed by clouds on the horizon\, we will see a line of polka-dots on Atlas and a select few folks may be able to “catch the sun” as it aligns with the perforations in Lancelot. We will begin watching for opportunities to Catch the Sun at 7:00pm! \nGiven cloudy or rainy weather\, we will not see the moonrise or the sunset or the alignment\, but will greet these celestial events ceremoniously regardless! This will be a quiet\, meditative event with a short opening rite and reading. After our readings\, if the sun is visible\, participants may wish to try to “catch the sun”\, take photos\, and watch the sun go down as we welcome Spring. This year\, (again\, weather permitting) we will have the special treat of seeing a VERY FULL moon rising in the east as the sun sets in the west. We will witness the arrival of Spring and send Winter on its way with our blessings. \nThis gathering will last about an hour. Actual moonrise is at 7:00pm and actual sunset is at 7:29pm. However\, with the topography specific to Kinstone\, the times we witness these is always somewhat different. \n\nIf you wish to be given a chance to “catch the sun”\, please Contact Us to sign up by sending an email stating “I want to catch the sun” and include your full name and email address with the subject “Catch the sun”. During this event\, guests who have signed up will be invited\, in order of sign-up time\, to catch the sun as and if weather and sunlight conditions permit. As many as we can get through will be given a chance to be photographed with their hands catching the sun – only if weather and sunset conditions permit the phenomenon to occur! \n\nThis event is outdoors and will be held rain or shine. Again\, please note that we will not see the moonrise\, sunset\, or the alignment if it is cloudy or if the horizon is obstructed by mist\, fog or clouds. If it is raining\, we will gather indoors in the Kinstone Education Center. Cancellation will occur in case of a major storm. Dress for the weather and wear appropriate footwear\, scarves\, hats and gloves if chilly! Be prepared for it to be breezy and cooler than expected up here on the ridge! \nInteresting facts: The exact time of the astronomical Vernal Equinox is Wednesday\, March 20\, 2019\, at 4:58pm CDT. The exact time of the Full Moon on the same day is 8:42pm.
