Soulskin Wheel

The Soulskin Wheel is a 9 month transformational (trans)personal journey. It is a ceremonial, communal container embedded within our wider world’s collective rite of passage. For those who are encountering both the crisis and call to a life-altering threshold crossing, the Soulskin Wheel’s journey of mysterious alchemy beckons.

As a rite of initiation, the Soulskin Wheel is a descent to the underworld in which we sever from our conditioned way of being in and of the world, and unveil the dreams yearning to be expressed through us as generative gift to this world being reimagined.

The Soulskin Wheel is a process of shedding of the oppressive conditions that disconnect us from our true medicine and power, individually and collectively. It is a liberation from the unconscious prison of the overculture that requires an unravelling of the binds keeping us in a too small, misfit story on the surface of an unfulfilled life, so we may return to our ensouled, ecological belonging, awake to our interbeing with all of creation.

As a rite of rebirth, the Soulskin Wheel asks us to surrender to the fertile darkness where we are available to hear the song that dreamt us into being, so we may grow from that source. Returning to the topside world ever anchored and animated from our origin at the heart of creation- our True Home- we live anew with the gift and responsibility of our unique way of being in generous reciprocity with life.

The Soulskin Wheel is a radical remembrance: A rooted recall of who one has always been. When we are re-membered in this way, we remember our true belonging to ourselves, our human and more-than-human ecological kin, and our contribution to a vital, co-creative weaving of a thriving world that is wildly diverse, healthy, interdependent, resilient, visionary, and whole.

The Call & Conjuring

The call to such an initiatory journey is one that paradoxically evokes deep longing + fear. It meets us as a crisis beckoning the decay of old, soul-suffocating names, labels, roles and ways of being to be composted into a mysterious metamorphosis. This is the time we enter the cocoon as a crucible of transformation. During this phase of the passage there are preparations that cultivate the wisdom of wholeness that dwells well within us, and practices that ripen us for the mystery of alchemical unfolding. During this phase, we heed the call and tend to the foundation of the Wheel.

Severance & Descent

Death and letting go is a birth and beginning. During this phase, we step away from everything fixed in our understanding as true and even unmovable, except what is essential and that is soul- the seed of true nature and the essence animating all of nature. When we loosen ourselves from the roles, identities, and ways of being we have relied on for our foundation of reality and our world view, everything comes into question. We may come undone to be done by the underworld. In this domain, we dismember and surrender our ego that is bound to middle world striving, so that a new role for the ego as an emissary of soul may emerge. In this passage, we enact ceremonies to release that which stands as a barrier to the underworld. We proclaim to The Way of mystery how we are willing to do what it takes to step into the vast unknown and continue to slay the illusions and false borders that prevent us from this fertile descent. Here we risk all the little deaths it takes to travel deeper into the mysterious underground forest to reach the heart of the world and the seed of soul.

    Threshold Vigil

Working intimately with holy, mysterious guidance to co-create your authentic vigil, you will enter your re-membering rite of rebirth and enact your vigil ceremony. During this time, we make ourselves humble and available for being dreamt by the earth, and be in conversation with the sacred. During 7 days and nights we immerse in the wild, inhabit medial threshold time, and hold vigil over our lives and entanglement in this great web of life. Each will go out in solitude to feed, and be fed by, a particular space that has claimed us and mirrors our true place in the wild web of life. This vigil is a period of liminal wakefulness, prayer, and devotional observance to the truths that have been alive in you since before time, but you are now available to receive. In this way, each of us open to being re-membered, reborn, and fully available to our true and rightful names, receptive to the gift that is ours to carry back to the world. 

  • Summer Solstice/June 13-20 Weeklong Camping on the Land in Lyons, Co: Threshold Vigil- 7 days/nights on the land together, 3 of which are in solitude vigil and 4 in ceremony with our community.

Metamorphosis Integration + Incorporation 

Unfurling into the most important stage, the return, we apprentice to the gifts we received and commit to the metamorphosis taking place within all aspects of our be-ing. We will take actions to carry our harvest back to the world. In this time of integration, we take care to return ourselves fully from our threshold time. “Incorporation” consists of the root “corp”, which means “body”, and thus incorporation is an act of returning fully to body. It is defined as “uniting or working into something already existent so as to form an indistinguishable whole; to blend or combine thoroughly; to give material form to; to unite in or as one body” This is the process we tend to in this time.

    Embodied Enactment

We were given a body and ego, and this is the earthly vehicle which nature bestowed upon us to plant our seeds in this world. This is the time for our resourced egos to become emissaries for soul. We have been given a gift, which is also a responsibility to offer to the world. Here we prepare a ceremony to enact our commitment to embody our metamorphosed selves as our giveaway, so that the good of all life may be served bountifully through our lives rooted into soul, and our medicinal, yet naturally ordinary place in the web of life.

The Soulskin Wheel is a journey like no other rite of passage. While other programs may set you out in the wilderness with days or maybe even weeks of preparation, the months of preparation on the Wheel - tending to soul tasks, connection with self, council, deep relationship with nature and an incredible support system of guides - is a school of the soul. It is training in how to be deeply, unabashedly and soulfully oneself. The learnings continue long beyond the meetings, councils, wanders and retreats. It is an education for life. -KTR 2018/19 participant
