Your Hosts
We are Sand and Jon Symes. We each have nearly two decades experience of sacred ceremonies and an even longer history as holders of space for transformation.
It is our privilege to create these opportunities for people to reverently explore the realms beyond our 3-D world.
What People are Saying
"Jon and Sand are two of the most loving, compassionate, authentic, and self-effacing people I have ever met. They are committed to their personal growth, healing, and transformation as individuals and in partnership. And they are committed to radiating this to those around them. Furthermore, they are powerful leaders and facilitators of transformational experiences. Over the years, I've had the privilege to work with them, sit with them in ceremony, and journey with them to the Amazon rainforest. Their balance of heart and mind, awareness and action, and compassion and drive make their offering a very blessed gift and a life-changing experience."
Ryan A, CA
"I whole heartedly recommend Jon and Sand to be your guides as you journey into the mystery in a safe, supportive and loving space. Individually they are amazing people bringing through their own unique offerings, and together they are magic! I plan to return time and time again to the sacred circle that is created by these two lovely people."
Tina D, CA
"Being in ceremony with Jon feels incredibly safe and nourishing. He creates a sacred container infused with reverence and care for not only the medicine, but for the earth, our ancestors, and those who are journeying together. He was present, but never intrusive, making sure we knew he was available for guidance if needed at any point during the journey. I would recommend Jon to anyone wishing to explore plant medicine in a safe and beautiful space, whether it be their first time or hundredth time."
Stephanie C, CA
"God seeps from your Being Sand. With you there is only Truth, with you there is only Light, with you there is only love love love!"

Personal Journeys
The reverent use of sacred medicines is a powerful way to further our own goals of growth and healing. We are delighted to craft individual journeys to help you. These will typically involve preparatory sessions (in-person or virtually) before we meet to help you orient to the process and clarify your intentions. The journey is an in-person day-long experience followed up by sessions to help you in the interpretation and embodiment f the healing and insights which you received.
In Community
If you yearn to be in community with like-hearted, curious and conscious folk, our group ceremonies are for you.
The connections we make when we journey together extend way beyond the the sacred circle, nourishing and supporting us in practical and unseen ways.
