WITH LUPO & OUR FRIENDS AT WILD GINGER COMMUNITY HERBAL CENTER
FEBRUARY 12-20 2024
STUDY THE PLANTS & THE PLANETS IN THE HEART OF THE CARIBBEAN…
Join us in the abundant Talamanca region of Costa Rica (again!) for an Introduction to Astrological Herbalism. This eight night intensive will be spent working with the astrological elements, modes, planets and signs as well as the flowers essences our beloved plant allies. As we honor the ancient dance of both earth and sky, we will be taking what we learn from the jungle and native plants and couple it with the time worn wisdom of the stars and the planets. Working directly with the beautiful tropical flora that surrounds the Caribe Sur we will build a deep and meaningful relationship to this long proven pairing. Additionally, we will be nourished well and learn local herbal and foodways with an amazing local Afro-Costa Rican herbalist!
Each participant will help create over a dozen Astro inspired Tropical Flower Essences to take home to use for years to come! This is a certificate program in Astro Herbalism and Tropical Flower Essences. All participants will be awarded a certificate of completion.
