As well as courses, training and mentoring, Jonathan and Zara also offer occasional talks, conference presentations, or festival workshops. Sometimes there are free events, online or onsite, such as Solstice Circles or ceremonies for special occasions. Through the years the three of us have created many tailor-made rituals for individuals, groups and institutions, including name giving celebrations, memorial services or blessing work. You can find more event announcements in our monthly newsletter

HEALING EARTH CIRCLE

FREE ONLINE EVENT - SUNDAY 9 MARCH 2025

with Jonathan Horwitz & Zara Waldebäck

19.30-20.30 CET Swedish time

When there is a lot of change and upset in the World, it can often feel like we have lost our way, making it hard to feel connected and know what to do.

To help us remember what is possible, we offer this free Circle, the first of several, for anyone who wants to take part. You do not need any previous experience, only a wish to gather and connect. We hope that these Circles will give you support, steadiness and inspiration.

The theme of Healing Earth shows us that it is important both to do what we can to help the World around us, and also that it is possible for us to go to the Earth to ask for help. When we come together in this way, we learn more about reciprocity and healing relationships.

The sessions will include Circle gathering with a ceremony, a guided meditation and writing exercise. These meetings are offered free of charge.

Please note that these meetings are live only. They will not be recorded. To take part, please sign up using the link below.

During 2025, we will meet occasionally when the time seems right. Once you are signed up to the interested list, you will receive an email when the next date is confirmed.

PERSONAL RITUALS AND CEREMONIES
Many people ask us to help with special threshold moments in their lives. Often they are name-giving ceremonies, weddings or funerals. Sometimes they are private rites-of-passage. These ceremonies are always created in consultation with you and the Spirits, to make sure they serve you well.

Shamanic ceremony is transforming work. It helps you to step through the stages of life with power and presence, and brings you into connection with yourself and the universe. It can be very empowering to create your own ceremony. Our hope is that more people will carry knowledge about shamanic ritual and ceremony, to help both themselves and others who ask for help. We sometimes offer courses on this theme, such as "Spirit Dance" and "Sacred Ceremony".

We still do this work when time allows. If you have a request or wish, please contact us. If we are not able to help, we can often recommend other shamanic colleagues, or contact one of the people on the list below.

When holding Ceremonial or Circle work online, it is useful to have a sense of ethics and clear guidelines, and so we offer our guide to sharing shamanic work online to help and inspire you

EVENTS BY OTHER PEOPLE
These people have trained extensively with us and work in a similar way. They often hold shamanic events and we recommend all these facilitators. In our monthly newsletter we regularly share information about upcoming shamanic events in our network.
