About Heartsong Sanctuary
“There is an almost sensual longing for communion with others who have a large vision. The immense fulfillment of the friendship between those engaged in furthering the evolution of consciousness has a quality impossible to describe.”
Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Our Mission
Our mission is to facilitate radiant transformation in ourselves, our community, and our world through play, pleasure, autonomy, self-inquiry, embodiment, generosity, and interconnection. Entrainment with nature supports and guides this process.
Our Vision
This vision represents our own understanding, and there are many understandings.
We envision a radical restructuring of our world, in which Gaia, the Divine Feminine, is recognized and restored to her rightful place as Mother of Creative Flow. She and Consciousness, the Divine Masculine and Father of Linear Thought, are (re)joined in a passionate love affair that elevates both to their greatest potential and allows the emergence of something entirely new.
Gaia and Consciousness, Mother of Creative Flow and Father of Linear Thought, dance. Their alchemical dance is one of heat and friction, balance and chaos, rapture and adoration, the thrill of loving and being loved. Their spiraling spins threads from pure joy. These threads, strong, beautiful strands of embodiment and awareness, weave tapestries of nurturance and interconnection which unfurl to create our realities.
In this vision, we hold each other in the fullest expression of ourselves. We see others as we see ourselves, and see ourselves as we see nature, and act with the compassion that arises from that knowing. Our hearts are open, resources are shared, and curiosity, generosity, play, and pleasure reign. Spontaneous celebration, self-expression, and gender/relationship anarchy allow a genuineness of expression that inspires innovation and delight.
We know ourselves as the dance of Gaia and Consciousness, expressions of their mysterious, generative, vibrational blossoming. This exquisite self-knowledge guides our every move — we are connection, abundance, vulnerability, and love itself.
On Transformation
We regard transformation as a process of integration, beginning first with the integration of all parts of the Self.
As Tantricas (weavers), we believe that every individual is a reflection of the sacred masculine and the sacred feminine, and the whole spectrum in between. Uniting all parts of ourselves in a loving marriage that honors the gifts of all our aspects is the spiritual goal of our existence.
We believe that the inner work that we do of honoring and loving ourselves ripples out from heart to hands, transforming our relationships, communities, society, and the world as a whole.
We are all teachers and students of this work. We seek to help others as others have helped us, as we continue to walk the path of transformation together.
