Welcome to the dream...

At Fires of Venus, we can touch Spirit, expand our capacity to Love, and create real change in our hearts and lives.

Evenings in the Temple of Venus are spent in both ritual and revelry - praying, drumming, dancing, kissing, singing, and making love - as a spiritual path and mirthful all-night prayer. Daytimes are spent in playshops focused on fire circle arts, relationships, and sacred sexuality.

Want to know more? Listen to this!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it...

Listen, I will tell you an awful secret,

A terrible heresy, a forbidden Truth:
This life is meant to be enjoyed.
We are here to play in the Garden-
To be ourselves, only more so
To make happy and be happy, love and be loved.
(Beloved, be Love!)

Say this and be damned,
Do this and be scorned,
Dare this and win!
Dance this life, grow drunken on it,
Make laughter your ally
In this alchemy.

All the biggest lies of history deny this:
Life is not meant to be suffering;
The addition of those words-
Click as tumblers fall, the lock moves,
Light shines around the edges
Of the door to Joy.

- Hugh Eckert, 7/19/2004
