OVERVIEW
An Astrology, Sound and Movement Retreat with Kaypacha, Tom and Abby
Let’s face it, since the great Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto conjunction of 2020, life on planet earth has gotten rougher, tougher, and colder. With the pandemic and all its mandates, government overreach, Pharma, Big Tech, and big banks all coming together, the political, economic, and social environment has grown increasingly hostile. From people on the streets to social media posts, the “cancel culture” has arisen, is growing, and hurts.

An Astrology, Sound and Movement Retreat with Kaypacha, Tom and Abby
Let’s face it, since the great Jupiter/Saturn/Pluto conjunction of 2020, life on planet earth has gotten rougher, tougher, and colder. With the pandemic and all its mandates, government overreach, Pharma, Big Tech, and big banks all coming together, the political, economic, and social environment has grown increasingly hostile. From people on the streets to social media posts, the “cancel culture” has arisen, is growing, and hurts.
The astrology of this year helps us to see the timing and personal pathways that are undergoing an initiation into new modes of creative expression.
This birthing process can feel long and arduous as we let go (or are stripped) of the old, in preparation for the new YOU. It becomes even more vital for us, as healers/teachers especially, to warm, nurture, and love ourselves so we can shine like beacons on a stormy sea.
This workshop is being held during the new Moon in Virgo, the sign of healing, while Chiron, the wounded healer, conjuncts the north node of the Moon. This is the right time, and this beautiful retreat center, nested within a natural park in Southern Spain is the right place to gather, ground, tune in, strengthen, and refresh ourselves in the light of Spirit Love!
In addition to exploring how, what, and where this New Moon in Virgo will be activating you, we will focus on the water signs and houses of your natal birth chart, which function as places where we go for emotional security and nurturing (Cancer/4th house), connection (Scorpio/8th house), and divine love and healing (Pisces/12th house). Then, we’ll look at this year’s planetary transits for advice on navigating the waters of 2023-2024.

THE JOURNEY
This retreat will be like no other! We are beyond excited to blend the teachings of astrology with the full body, mind, and soul experience of sound, dance, and ceremony. Tom Soltron and Abby Delsol, creators of Tone of Life, have bought healing through sound for over 20 years. Together they will share gong, music, dance, and magic to soothe, heal, strengthen, and enliven every cell of our bodies!
“Sound is our language of healing. We believe Sound is part of the future of Medicine.”
Sound Healing is a technique, an art, and a craft that can awaken someone from what triggers them into a space of wholeness and expanded perception. By un-training the brain to hear new tunings, we move towards a broader spectrum of tones, both in sound and experience. We all know the value of sound, from the first cries and lullabies of connection to the distinct frequencies that can transform a mood, reception, and feeling. We harness these experiences alongside new sounds, instrumentations, and immersive moments to integrate the wholeness of sound as part of a personal healing language and modality.” Find out more about Tom and Abby’s Philosophy

Yoga & Sound with Abby
BEACH DAY!
We will drive to the nearby beaches of Tarifa, where the Mediterranean and the Atlantic meet! Known as the Wind Capital of Europe, it draws in surfers, windsurfers, and kitesurfers who, in turn, lend this ancient yet deceptively small settlement a refreshingly laid-back international vibe.
Tarifa town, with its winding whitewashed streets and tangible North African feel, the walled windswept old town could easily pass for Chefchaouen or Essaouira.
We will find a quiet beach to settle in and enjoy the day playing and relaxing. Those with their own car will be free to venture out into town. Then, we will enjoy a delicious Mediterranean lunch by the sea and return to camp in time for dinner.

Cacao is not only one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet; it’s also a sacred Plant Medicine that the ancient Mayans and Aztecs used ceremonially. Cacao is heart-opening medicine. It helps to heal and restore the connection with your heart and facilitates it to blossom wide open, so that release, transformation, and manifestation can happen. It also increases focus, clarity, creativity, sensitivity, and empathy.

Kaypacha goes through the meaning of the signs, planets, houses, and aspects (16 hours total).

You’ll emerge from this unique retreat invigorated, rejuvenated, centered, and empowered to pursue your soul path with joy, peace, and harmony.
🦚 Plenty of personal time, yoga, gong baths, meditation, dancing, nature, and circle will be interwoven with our astrological wanderings.
True healing involves integrating our spirit, mind, emotions, and physical bodies.
