Ecos de la Marea
Can you feel a gentle pulling, the echoes of the tide?
|
Human constructs have always been extremely tumultuous, volatile waves on a stormy sea. It can be disorienting and stressful, especially if we do not have the eyes to see that it is only a very small part of the ocean. The Tide invites us to drop below the turmoil at the surface, into the Deep—a place where Reality is harmonized and tranquil.
Now more than ever we need to rest in this Calm. We need to see the ever-changing nature of the storms clearly, to perceive beneath the surface, to listen and to feel what is real. We came to earth to bathe in Reality—to gather and harmonize with each other, to sing, to love, to dance and meditate and laugh together! So, come! Come celebrate with me. Come remember who you truly are. Make the choice to walk away from the chaotic dream of the culture and sing a new song. Join with me—and the seals and the ravens and the starfish and the sand fleas and the sea weed and the rocks who have forever been singing this ancient song—for a ceremony close to each full moon, in the sacred cave at Doran Beach. Be held and nurtured by Mother Nature.
Recalibrate with the echoes of the tide. The waves, the wild wind, the dark earth womb await you … |

Location & Directions: We meet in the parking lot at Pinnacle Gulch, a Sonoma County Regional Park trail in the Bodega Harbor golf community right before you come to Doran Beach Road. On Google Maps its called Pinnacle Gulch Coastal Access Trail. To get there, take Highway 1 toward Bodega Bay and turn left into the Bodega Harbor housing community. Take a left at the guard house onto Heron Drive and drive for almost a mile. Take the first left onto Mockingbird Road. Pinnacle Gulch parking lot is on your left, the trail is on your right. (There is a bathroom in the parking lot.) There is also street parking in the neighborhood. It is a beautiful 15 minute walk down the gulch to the ocean. The cave is another 10 minute walk along the beach to your right.

Akaal by Ajeet and Trevor Hall
Out beyond ideas of
wrongdoing and rightdoing
there is a [cave].
I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that [sand]
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase 'each other'
doesn't make sense.
- Rumi
