What is the Bonfire of Reflection®? |
|
|
The Yeashore Community hosts the very special
Bonfires of Reflection®
around the |
|
|
The Bonfire of Reflection® is a non-traditional way to celebrate and reflect for the Jewish and Celtic New Years. It is different from most ways people review and reflect on the last year and on their place in the world. |
|
|
The most traditional part of the evening will be a Havdalah
ceremony that separates the Sabbath from the rest of the week. It is a short ceremony that is fully explained and very sweet. |
|
|
The other "events" of the evening include songs of
reflection, change and remembering, as well as people sharing their miracle stories. The Maggid also leads a guided meditation. |
|
|
The center of the evening is the burning of items that people bring as a way of letting go of them. |
|
|
In past years there were ex-lovers letters, tax returns,
business papers, legal papers and other stuff that people brought to be burned at the Bonfire. It was an incredible release for those who did it. |
|
|
The Yeashore Community provides blank 3 x 5 cards for people
to write on and then burn. There are logs with holes in them that people can put the cards in and we burn as a community. One of the logs is cut in the shape of the Kabbalistic ten Sephirot (also Kundalini Chakras) for people to focus on some aspect of their lives. This will be fully explained. |
|
|
As fire is both a creator and a destroyer, you can write on the cards what you want to burn out of your life, or what you want to burn into your life! |
|
|
The atmosphere is joyful, warm, friendly and a space for people to use the Bonfire to help themselves. We look forward to your joining us around a Bonfire of Reflection®! |
