The Sacred Calendar
What is an Eco-Spiritual Calendar?
When we consciously shape vibrations into specific strata, relationships, and harmonies, we call that “music.” As many of us know, music has the capacity to heal the soul, the body, and bring us together as a community.
Similarly, when we shape our living experience of time-space in a way that understands ecology, ancestry, embodiment, and interconnectedness, then we make music of the way we live.
Our ancestors lived in deep relationship with land and season, with the seen and unseen worlds. That thread has been broken for many of us as our culture has been co-opted by capitalist forcers.
However, we remember those ecological rhythms (dharma) deep in our bodies. The melodies of seasons that hold our psychospiritual growth, shedding, and renewal, as well as our physical thriving are remembered deep in our souls.
Our sacred calendar is a way we can return to body-mind health, inner wholeness, and collective harmony.

Core Values
The purpose of practice is the realization of Reality as it truly is. We practice to realize the truth of our interdependence, to heal the wounds of separation—personal, ancestral, and collective—and to live in alignment with Essence, our true nature. This is the Bodhisattva path: awakening for the sake of all beings.
We are not separate from the natural world. We practice reciprocity and connection with nature and the spirit imbued in nature. The land is not backdrop—it is teacher, community, kin.
The natural world is animate and ensouled. Nature is full of presences that influence us and we influence them, as we are part of one system. Nature communicates with us and teaches us directly through communion. The trees, the waters, the creatures, the ancestors—all are persons, all are present.
Sacred technologies support our transformation. We use herbs, silent meditation and retreat, movement, song, and poetry as technologies for engaging the subtle realms. These ways of communion are doorways into a deeper understanding of reality.
Darkness and lightness are equally valuable parts of one whole. We do not rush toward light or bypass shadow. Descent is as sacred as ascent, and darkness is as much as part of reality as light.
A Living World
The earth is not a backdrop to our lives. It is alive—breathing, cycling, responding, teaching. We can know this aliveness in three ways:
Through our senses. The smell of rain on dry soil, the shift of birdsong at dusk. Our bodies know how to commune with the natural world whenever we slow down and attend.
Through the intelligence we carry. We co-evolved with this earth for 4.8 billion years. The rhythms of day and night, the lunar cycle, the turning of seasons—these patterns are written into our nervous systems. We are not observers of ecological systems; we are ecological systems.
Through the spiritual agencies of nature. Every indigenous culture recognizes that the natural world is populated with presences—spirits of place, plant teachers, ancestors who speak through wind and water. The salmon is not only protein; it is a being. The oak is not only wood; it is an elder.
Three Worlds, One Reality
Borrowing from the Buddhist traditions, we honor three levels of reality:
Nirmāṇakāya — The Physical Realm. Bodies, land, seasons, this breath, this watershed.
Saṃbhogakāya — The Spirit Realm. Ancestors, plant teachers, essential qualities as presences, the beings of the Otherworld.
Dharmakāya — The Absolute. The boundless ground from which all arises. Formless awareness. What was never born and cannot die.
These are not separate places. They are dimensions of here. Ceremony is the art of living in all three at once.
Healing with the Calendar
We practice to realize the truth of our interdependence—to feel in our bones that we are not separate from the land, the waters, the creatures, the ancestors, or each other. This knowing is not intellectual. It is lived, bodied, woven into the rhythm of our days.
We practice to heal the wounds of the past—personal and collective. The trauma of separation from land, from lineage, from the animate world. The grief our ancestors could not grieve. The disconnection that has made us lonely and the earth sick. Healing is not forgetting; it is metabolizing what was too much to bear, so that it transforms rather than repeats.
We practice to live in alignment with Essence—our true nature, which is also the true nature of reality. The boundless dimensions of Being are not elsewhere; they are here, waiting to be recognized. When we are aligned with Essence, we act from wisdom and compassion rather than fear and habit. We become vehicles for something larger than our small selves. This is the Bodhisattva path: awakening for the sake of all beings.
