Beltane
Cultivating the Sacred Flame
with Star Joyce
Music by Dick Franklin
/
On Sunday, May 3, Star Joyce will speak about Beltane, an ancient Gaelic festival celebrated in May between the Spring Equinox and the Summer Solstice.
Star explains, “Beltane is a festival of light, a time for bonfires that clear away what is complete and that signal and call in magic for the earth and all its beings to plant new seeds and celebrate the fertile womb. The element of fire brings clarity, illuminating what is ready to open, to heal and to create anew.
“In Hawaiʻi,” she continues, “the seasonal elements shift in subtle and key ways.
While we primarily turn the wheel of the year in cycles of bloom, fruit, harvest, repeat, this time of year as our daylight lengthens, the arch of light noticeably shifts each day. The ocean warms. The winds change direction, and our island is nourished and flooded with rains that rearrange the aina, create new pathways and offer up fresh fodder in field and tinder for flame.”
She will invite us to consider how to use the special energy of this sacred time to illuminate, awaken and enliven the body, mind and spirit. “What are we now ready to bring to the great temple doors and enter into holy union with?”
Star is a medicine woman and medicine maker who has lived on Big Island for 8 years. Her home is in the southern district of Kaʻu. “As a medicine woman,” she explains, “I assist others in their soul’s healing and celebration. My job is clear and straightforward - to be myself and share my gifts by creating and holding a clear and safe container for growth and transformation while nurturing an awakening to the sacred nature of life. I carry many tools in my basket, including my voice and the assistance of Master Plant teachers.”
She has an extensive background and 30 years experience in a wide range of healing arts including massage, qigong, Taoist shamanic healing, Trancedance journeywork and a lifelong immersion in plant medicines. She is also a fabric artist and silk painter, and a maker of plant medicines, including Hawaiian cacao and chocolates.
Star offers community ceremonies with Master Plant Bobinsana on a regular basis, vocal liberation classes for groups and individuals, and community improv/ prayer singing classes. Her passions are plant medicine, singing, gardening and cultivating rooted relationships with folks who are ready to dance their soul’s work.
