The Erotic Descent & Soul Ascension:
A Winter Soulstice Tantrik Temple w/ live dj set by Divana
Sunday 20 December - 18:00 - 22:30
The longest night. Have you ever actually let yourself be in it?
Not rushed past, not spiritually bypassed toward the light that isn't here yet. Just met — the deepest dark of the year, all the way down, before anything is asked to rise.
December 20 is the winter solstice: the single darkest point of the year, the night the sun itself seems to stand still before it turns. That is what the word actually means, sol, sistere, the sun standing still. For as long as there have been people watching the sky, this has been the night for fire, not to fight the dark, but to sit inside it together until it turns on its own. Nothing rushes that. Nothing earns it. It simply happens, the way it always has.
That is the whole sacred flow of this temple. Descent before ascension, not despite the erotic but through it: the body, the breath, the primal truth of what you actually want, met all the way down to the root before anything is asked to rise. Most spiritual paths ask you to skip straight to the light. This one does not. Ascension that has not passed through the body first is not ascension. It's avoidance wearing a halo.
We gather, as humans have always gathered, in ritual, in firelight, in honest embodied presence, to go down together instead of alone.
The Erotic Descent & Soul Ascension is a tantrik temple night: a sacred, primal, grounded playground for connection, ritual, eros, and the relief of not having to be anywhere but here.
Beginner-friendly. Deepening for experienced temple-goers. Held with clarity, care, and devotion.
🌟 WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT
Most conscious events give you spirituality or eros. Rarely both. Fewer still let you actually go down before asking you to rise.
This space holds all three. Sacred and alive. Devotional and primal. Deep and free. It is a living temple. And it changes people.
People who come once come back. Something shifted, and shallow evenings do not satisfy anymore.
🔥 THE EROTIC DESCENT & SOUL ASCENSION
A living temple of descent and ascension:
- Firelight, cacao, and stillness, a room built for going down
- A guided descent, root-first, into what this year asked you to carry
- A slow rise back up: soul ascension after the descent, root to crown, in your own time
- Free-flow temple space to land wherever the descent has opened in you w/ live dj set by Divana
Temple. Tribe. Ritual. Ground.
Primal, but grounded. Erotic, but real. Dark, but alive.
🌀 THE FIELD WE CREATE
We open with a tantrik ritual: body-based, accessible, gently activating. A shamanic-tantrik descent, root first, into stillness and darkness before anything is asked to move.
From there, the space opens into free-flow temple. You choose your pace. You choose your depth. You choose how your body wants to move through the temple.
🕯️ WHY WE GATHER
The deepest dark of the year rises when the conditions are right. A room where you don't have to rush toward resolution. A field where you can be honest, primal, erotic, and real.
Because many of us long for spaces that are:
- Honest about the dark without needing to fix it
- Erotic without pressure
- Intimate without collapse
- Sacred, expansive, and grounded
Temple is where eros, ground, spirit, and humanity meet. Fully. Totally.
🤍 CONSENT, BOUNDARIES, NERVOUS SYSTEM CARE
This space is held with integrity and care. Trauma-aware. Choice-led. Touch-optional. Inclusive. Clear boundaries create real freedom.
🔥 WHAT THE NIGHT INCLUDES
- Opening ritual and shamanic ceremonial field
- Guided descent work
- Soul ascension ritual, root to crown
- Partner and group exercises rooted in presence and consent
- Free-flow temple w/ live dj set by Divana
- Cacao and firelight
Open to all: beginners exploring tantrik temples for the first time, to those wanting to deepen. Singles, couples, constellations. You are all deeply welcome.

22:15 - Closing
✨ BEFORE THE TEMPLE: THE WORKSHOP
For those who want to arrive truly ready, The Art of Embodied Connection™ — Being Received opens the same afternoon.
A two-hour workshop in tantra, authentic relating and embodied community. You land in the body, meet people with genuine presence, and walk into the Temple already open, already loosened.
Workshop: 14:30 - 16:30
💛 THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
- You long for depth, presence and genuine human connection
- You are ready to actually meet the dark instead of rushing past it
- You are curious about tantra and want a safe, guided, beautiful first experience
- You are experienced and want to go deeper
- You want to feel free to be yourself without shame, guilt or conditioning
- You are coming as a couple and want to touch something real together
🙏 AND IF YOU ARE WONDERING...
"Is this a sex event?"
No. This is a sacred conscious space. Eros is present and honoured.
"What if I feel nervous?"
Good. That feeling means something in you knows this is real. The nervous system settles in the first twenty minutes.
"Is this for beginners, or for those who already know their way around?"
Both. Always both.
Some of you will walk through this door with zero prior experience, nothing but curiosity and maybe a flutter of nerves, and that is enough. That is exactly enough. You are fully welcome exactly as you are.
Others of you have already tasted parts of this path, and you're not here for an introduction. You're here to go deeper, to shed another layer, to meet a rawer edge of yourself, to feel your body and your desire in a way you haven't yet let yourself feel.
Wherever you're starting from, what actually matters is one thing: your willingness to arrive.
The workshop before the Temple (14:30) is specifically for arriving open, grounded, and already connected to the people in the room.
"We are a couple. Is this for us?"
Yes. Couples come to go deeper, to feel something real between them again. The space holds solo people and couples equally.
"What if tantra is not for me?"
Tantra in this space is not what most people imagine. It is the practice of presence: in breath, in sensation, in contact. It is not explicit. It is the art of being fully here. Anyone with a body and a longing to connect is welcome in this room.
"How do I know I will feel safe?"
This space is trauma-aware and held by an experienced team of facilitators. Every exercise is an invitation. Your warm yes is the only thing that moves anything forward.
Wear comfortable clothes you can move in. No partner needed. Simply come as you are. 🌺
