Back to All Events

bula in the backyard: Song cirlce

#BulaInTheBackyard is back, better than ever for this one-time-only event in Germantown! Reknowned and radical, we are hosting Shiloh Circle to stay in the Honeypot before she moves on to lead song circle ceremonies during the 2nd annual Singing in Love Gathering -- happening August 31 to September 4 at Stonehedge Gardens in the Poconos!

FOR THOSE YET TO BE INITIATED TO THE MEDICINE OF SONG:
(I am only new to it, but here's my best effort) -- it is a remedy for the ever-present emotional malaise we experience and robotic efforts we exert to get by despite the challenges of modern life. It helps us activate and engage our own authentic sound and resonance with other humans, in a deeply felt and heard way. It helps us connect with our hearts through our vocal cords and link the unconscious desire to express with an embodied creation of MUSIC-MAKING! (Really, you don't need to be a singer or a musician to dig this: beginners welcome!)

A lil birdie says that Shiloh will share some songs, call-and-response style, that are sex-positive, silly, deep, and heart-opening.

It's a little TBD on how long the song sharing aspect of the night will go on, dependent on Shiloh's energy -- but we will have a hat out in which you can offer contributions for her sharing her song medicine<3

We will also have sliding-scale offerings of curry and kava, euphoric elixirs and a variety of sun brewed tea concoctions, to boost mood, or soothe and support your energy body in some way. (It is foretold, that the real base of the Food Pyramid is actually herbs. I saw we normalize drinking room temperature herbal blends with optional agave and lemon all day!!!)

FOR THOSE YET TO BE INITIATED TO THE MEDICINE OF KAVA:
A root from Vanuatu, it tingles the tongue and eases the tension via the kavalactones effect on the nervous system. It is plant medicine for stress and anxiety, traditionally regarded as the peace plant and consumed during celebration, ceremony, and negotiation. It is subtly peppery and earthy on it's own, chased with a pineapple, and your first one is FREE!

We will also have it available as yummy kava-tails: HORCHATA (Cinnamon Rice Milk), LEMONADE, MOJITO, and NEW QUEEN'S KAVA with our hibiscus, lavender, lemon balm, oatstraw, passionflower and mullein Queen's Tea herbal blend.

We'll begin the hang around 5pm, and welcome guests as late as 11pm, maybe midnight if we're really vining. We do have to be on our way to Singing in Love the next day though, so don't plan to be here late unless you're helping us clean up!

For just a TINY SIP of the medicine that is Shiloh, check out this song Medicine Carrier she has on offer on Bandcamp: https://shilohcircle.bandcamp.com/album/medicine-carrier
