As we move into the times of harvest and less light what fruits of your labor are you gathering in as stores for the winter season? What have you learned about yourself and your needs? At the time of the thinned veil who or what do you wish to grieve, celebrate and give reverence to?
In this weekend retreat and ritual space, Caritia encourages participants to honor the death, profane and sacred within themselves, where those energies come from, and ways in which to manifest them to empower themselves.
Caritia will guide participants in finding individual, small and large group containers/spaces for grief, release, transformation, and celebration using tools of movement, sound/voice, journaling, sensation play, and other practices. With the aim of discovering tools of support for the coming weeks and beyond. Leading with the question – who is this for?

Who is this event for?
LGBTQIA+ describes the full spectrum of non-mainstream sexual orientation and/or gender identity, meaning: lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, non-binary, genderqueer/fluid, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, agender.
Friends describes people of any and all kinds of gender and sexual identities who are aware and respectful of the necessity, needs, and boundaries of a queer safe(r) space and its marginalized community.
When you consider yourself a friend you show acknowledgement to and are respectful of everyone’s self-expression and do not assume, presume or project non-consensual ideas onto others. You actively request and use people’s chosen pronouns. You remain mindful of the fact that Karada House is first and foremost a space for queer people that you are also invited to attend. You have a genuine concern for the well-being of LGBTQIA+ people and remain in awareness of heterosexual and gender straight privileges.
Friends don’t have to be perfect. None of us are. We request that we all pro-actively work and strive to be good friends and allies to marginalized people.
