We invite you to join us for a circle of Feminine Wisdom, Ceremonial Cacao and live Amazonian Music. Our circle will be held by spiritual leader Biruany of the Huni Kuin people from the Brazilian Amazon and supported by Winter Jendayi.
Within our circle we will set intentions and soften with the medicines of Copal and Cacao. Biruany will share wisdom and insights into feminine themes and teachings within her cultural context and personal experiences, followed by a Q&A.
This evening is a celebration of the Feminine Force — through movement and dancing to the songs of the forest, we will celebrate our resilience, strength and sacred joy. An artisanal craft market will be offered, filled with jewelry, art and sacred items created by the Huni Kuin women from Biruany’s village.
** Spots are very limited, so signing up asap is recommended **

BIRUANY HUNI KUIN
Biruany, the leader of Mawa Isa, a collective of women from Pinuya Village, is known for her contributions to facilitating spiritual works and pioneering studies. She is regarded as a messenger of the feminine force of the forest and has overcome the male-dominated territory to unite and empower the Huni Kuin women. Biruany is a renowned figure who travels abroad, inspiring women with her powerful voice which reflects the beauty, charm and strength of the forest.
The Huni Kuin people inhabit the lush Western Amazon of Brazil and Peru. They have a rich cultural heritage that includes shamanism, storytelling, music and art. Today, many of their leaders travel the world, forming alliances to share their music and culture and advocate for the preservation of the Amazon Rainforest.
