FULL MOON SALON

rhythm and flow, just like the moon

Expect a curious mix of friendly acquaintances gathered outdoors* on the full moon. The envisioned rhythm and flow of each Salon goes something like this**:
​
  • 6:45pm - The garden gate opens and folks*** are invited to bring their own chair, blanket or meditation cushion. Hot tea or cold herbal tea is offered, depending on the season. Guests are also encouraged to bring their own beverages.
  • 7:00pm - Welcome. Using the Bell to get everyone’s attention, the Salon formally starts with a brief welcome and outline of what to expect, what a salon is and a little about the moon that month. 
  • 7:15pm - The Sun Topic starts. The Sun Topic is "hot topic" designed to provoke, rile up and embrace our complicated humanity. Who knows what we'll talk about but it will be a juicy subject. Facilitated, but with popcorn style participation. A proper Salon in that sense. 
  • 7:45pm -  Poetic Interlude. We take a break to refill cups, drop an answer into the Moon Oracle and experience poetry of some kind to shift the heated energy.  Shoes off in the house if guests go inside for the restroom. 
  • 8:00pm - The Moon Topic starts. Who knows what the Moon Topic will be (we don't usually say in advance) but rest assured it will be fascinating. Guest speakers deliver a semi-formal talk and we'll all learn something new together.
  • 8:40pm - Integration. There could be some follow up questions for the Moon Topic speaker, but more interestingly, how can the Sun Topic and the Moon Topic inform one another for transformation? Again, popcorn style participation. A proper Salon in that sense. A name is drawn from the Moon Oracle and a cool door prize is given. ​
  • 9:00pm - Completion. We are fully complete with the Salon by 9pm. (That's a commitment, we know folks are busy.) Gates open. Folks are invited to hang out until as late as 10pm. 
  • 10:00pm - Go home! The evening is officially over. The garden gate is locked. See ya next month on the full moon. Remember, the RSVP link for the next Salon is available on the new moon prior. ​

*If inclement weather, perhaps we move to Zoom? Go indoors? We'll see. 
**Or not. One never knows, we might go rogue and do something completely different! 
***The Salon will cap at 30-40 people, max.  #pandemic
