THE EMBER CIRCLE: A CACAO & SOUND CEREMONY

The Ember Circle is the Academy community's mid-October ceremony night: ceremonial cacao, crystal singing bowls and a closing fire circle, held to a deliberately tiny circle of seats.

For practitioners, it is a working study in how three modalities hand off to one another inside a single two-hour arc: how cacao settles a room, how bowl tones hold it, and how fire gives an ending its weight. Thursday, October 15, 6:30 to 8:30 PM at Crimson Commuter, Madison Heights. $45, with the Fire Elemental Aura Spray offered as an optional add-on at booking.
