Aho.

Sisters you are invited to join Panayiota Theophanouson for the second Sisters gatherings on Berkeley Farm. After a joyful day on the Spring Equinox where women came together in sisterhood to tend the land, honour the Earth, and prepare the ground for deeper connection and be in community. We offer you the opportunity to gather once again and celebrate Beltane, marking the beginning of summer and the full transition into the light half of the year with themes and rituals of fertility, sacred union, and celebration of the spring energy.

The day is held as a shared experience of devotion, simplicity, and togetherness. Please bring food to share as we nourish one another and celebrate community.

We will gather around the fire, offering gratitude, prayers, and intentions for growth, healing, and collective well-being as we cross this seasonal threshold together.

Berkeley Farm is set in 18 acres of private Essex countryside just a short drive from the city and close to Hainault Station on the Central Line.

Register your attendance and you will be invited to join a sisters what’s app group. Via www.aho.community

Aho is excited to announce an overnight experience where we will connect with and learn how to work with sacred fire on a personal and intimate level. After years of making and holding the fire at events, festivals and ceremonies we at Aho have felt called to create a space where you can also build your confidence and techniques to be able to manage a sacred fire and deepen your connection with it.

First we will learn how to make fire without the use of modern tools, using a Bow Drill. This in itself is a rite of passage and initiation. Held in sacred silence and in no particular order you will each have 1.5 hours throughout the night and be responsible for holding the sacred fire while the rest of us enter the dream state and sleep cosy around the fire. We feel, those that are called to this night will be able to go on and build your own relationship to working with sacred fire and join a community of fire keepers who support, build and share future sacred fires together.

For those that do the training you are welcome to join myself and Dovydas as one of the fire keepers at Elemental Temple Festival over the weekend of the Summer Solstice, 18th-21st June in Elveden Forest, Thetford, where Aho is responsible for holding the central sacred fire, where we will be taking shifts throughout the festival. The exchange is free entry for Aho fire keepers. Check out the festival line up, here. www.elementaltemplefestival.com and upon booking your place for the training, let us know if you are interested in this amazing opportunity.

Held by Daren Ellis and Dovydas Urbonas on Berkeley Farm. A beautiful private location surrounded by fields and nature just a few miles outside London. The closest station is Hainault on the central line. Parking if you drive is also available

If this resonates we look forward to sharing time with you and grandfather fire! Visit www.aho.community for further details
