It is opposite Ashby BART and there are 5 steps with rail one has to climb to get to the space) THIS IS NOT A RELIGIOUS EVENT. THIS IS TO RELEASE, RENEW & REJOICE IN COMMUNITY THROUGH LEARNING, CELEBRATION & CEREMONY. NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF HINDUISM OR JUDAISM IS REQUIRED. WE WELCOME ALL WHO BELIEVE IN RAISING COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS. COSTUME APPRECIATED BUT NOT A MUST. Let’s celebrate the essence of two joyful festivals through storytelling, music, dance and rituals ending in a full moon ceremony under the sky around a fire to release, rejoice & renew as we welcome spring. Come dressed up in costumes, masks and all things colorful. Brings sound-making things, wear clothes in layers because you will be outside for the fire ceremony and bring things you want to burn in the fire to release what no longer serves you. We will serve hot drinks and dessert during the ceremony. Beer and Wine will be available for purchase since both these festivals traditionally involves drinking liquor. This experiential and participatory event is secular & inclusive. Roke Noir & Stephanie Reif, both with strong roots to their respective religions and passion for sharing the stories and festivals they grew up with, will facilitate this celebratory ceremony. About Roke (aka Krishnakali) : Hindu by birth, and growing up amongst her 300 million gods and goddesses in India, Roke feels lucky to have the colors, stories and inherent love of celebrations and ceremonies that her roots bring to her life every day. A shamanic manifestation coast bridging opposites of east and west, business and community, science and arts, masculine and feminine, Roke's calling is that of unravelling the enigma of each person she comes across. She has facilitated various ceremonial celebrations including the annual "PHENOMENON" New Year's Eve and given talks on her views on Hinduism at large and small events/spaces including MCC, San Francisco. Currently she runs a Full Moon Manifestation Circle and Ceremony every month. Keep in touch with her work on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/rokenoirserves About Stephanie Reif: As a daughter of a Shoa (Holocaust) survivor, Stephanie was raised in Jewish community, immersed in the history and traditions of the her People. She has taught stories of the israelites at temples, churches, and circles, and has been performing in the annual Purim play this weekend at Temple Sinai. Her CD, Songs of My People, is a collection of Hebrew songs she was raised with, sang with, and danced to. She is currently working toward her Bat Mitzvah, to become a Daughter of the Torah.
