This Winter Solstice Ceremony will focus on the self-intimacy of arriving in our physical bodies, and the alignment with our energetic or spiritual path.  This directly corresponds with Jupiter and Saturn's current transit, and their placements in our charts. Our expansive awareness is crucial now for our individual and collective transformation. It's time to align.

Fall Festival, known as Halloween, Samhain and Day of the Dead, and known by many other names, is the time of year when light noticeably fades. This is the time when the veils between the world are the thinest. In this season we honor the erotic transformation of transitions, as a sacred part of the circle of life. We remember those who’ve transitioned from their physical form. Death is the beginning of everything that turns like the changing colors of dying leaves, the way our bodies slough-off cells and rejuvenate daily, weekly, monthly. The most profound example of the power of our life force energy can be found in the processes of dying/transitions. At this time of year we honor the energy within us that must die in order for another part of us to be reborn.

We will activate this powerful culminating energy of the year with a virtual life, death and rebirth ritual celebrating the erotic flow of life and death cycles within and around us. We will ceremonially reflect on and review the past year, celebrate our Ancestors and heal Ancestral patterns surrounding sex and sexuality.

BGT will celebrate Fall Festival (Samhain, Halloween) on the actual weekend it falls, in a virtual ceremony.

Autumnal Equinox is when the days and nights are equal length again. Once again we acknowledge balance. This time by preparing for the transition from the outward going energy of summer to the inward facing energy of winter. This officially declares our entry into the last quarter phase in the yearly earth cycle, thus signifying an important time of inner growth as the balance shifts towards increasing darkness.

We activate this balanced energy by exploring our mental capacity to rise above our emotions, in honor of unconditional love, open communication and acceptance of self and others. Erotic Guided Meditation and Tantric exercises, will be offered so that we can focus our emotional intelligence in ways that will help us relate more fully with our loved ones. We will journal to connect our hearts and minds, and move our breath and bodies for inner connection.

BGT celebrates Autumnal Equinox, the weekend prior to the day, to create our erotic power tools for conscious use when the wheel turns.

This Cross Quarter day is when we first start noticing that the days are starting to grow shorter. It is the time of year when plants first start to drop their fruits or seeds. With the days growing shorter, we celebrate the bounty of the Earth with the first harvests of grains. This is the festival of regrets, farewells, harvest and preserves. Our ancestors knew how to honor this time and to honor all of our emotions.

In this sacred and joyous container of gratitude, we will devote time, to acknowledge personal and collective regrets and farewells, while honoring our capacity for forgiveness and inner-strength, pleasure and play. We will witness, share and receive guided meditation, and move our bodies and breath with Kundalini breathwork. We will also journal to connect our hearts & minds around soul-preservation.

BGT celebrates Lammas, the weekend prior to the day, to create our erotic power tools for conscious use when the wheel turns.

Summer Solstice (June 20th this year) is the longest day of the year, with the Sun at its highest point in the sky. With Covid-19 and police taking our people and Black Lives Matter uprisings for justice, and the world feeling upside down, we are experiencing personal and collective upheavals. I’ve been having my own ups and downs, alone-time and together-time, and gathering strength from ancestors, family, community and friends, and was not sure if I was going to offer the Summer Solstice ritual, but I believe we need it now more than ever.

BGT is offering an opportunity to pause, address and soothe what’s happening in our bodies and nervous systems. In lieu of the in-person summer solstice ritual, BGT will be providing the first virtual Black Girl Tantra Summer Solstice Ceremony via Zoom, from the comfort of your home, shelter-in-place spot, or your spot in nature.

You will be given space and time to align with your erotic inner wisdom & to illuminate your super power that you bring to the world (there is no wrong, right or perfect way to do this). We will be working with the energy of water (cancer) and fire (the sun): What is your magic? How do you illuminate your magic? And most importantly, How do you nurture yourself, before, during, and while offering your super power?

We will activate our erotic energy with a nurturing calming guided meditation, individual altar building and setting intentions for our collective and individual healing goals, bringing our individual gifts and nurturing intentions to the forefront.

BGT will celebrate Summer Solstice on the actual Solstice this time, instead of a week before. We utilize the illuminating energy of the sun in nurturing cancer, new moon in cancer and solar eclipse energy for change.

Also, add to your altar, something that represents your internal super power.

• Bring a Journal to write, water/tea, and dress as sacredly comfortable as you like.

This is the Cross Quarter Day that we celebrate to honor the fertility of the Earth, made possible by the increased warmth of the Sun and the coming Summer months. With this powerful fire energy BGT focuses on our personal/individual erotic renewal and the erotic awareness of our visions. We will more deeply tap into our personal erotic power and earths fertility, with nature’s assistance.

We will activate this energy through hands-on community activity that connects us to our sexual energy while shedding the taboos of the past, journaling to connect our hearts and minds, and by creating erotic power tools specific to this earth energy, to fertilize our creative projects.
