New Moon Ceremony ~ Native Flute Meditation and Drum Journey


Gather in Sacred Circle at dusk, when the veils between worlds are thinnest, to embrace the new moon with reflection, renewal and seeding new intentions.

Let go of everyday concerns and rest in peaceful meditation to the soothing sounds of Native American Flute music played live.

Journey with the drum to the unseen realms to connect with compassionate guardian spirits for healing and guidance through direct revelation.

Sonya Jason is a professional musician, shamanic practitioner and ceremonialist. Her work masterfully empowers each person’s innate connection with Spirit for guidance and healing. Sonya plays Native American wood flutes, frame drum, conch shell, gourd rattles and chakapa (Peruvian leaf rattle) to create powerful moving ceremonies, healing meditation music, and insightful shamanic journeys.

Jazz saxophonist and multi-instrumentalist Sonya Jason has made her living as a performer, recording artist and educator since 1985. She delights in offering her musical gifts as an expression of her deeply spiritual outlook on life. For well over three decades, Sonya maintained a Buddhist meditation practice before fully embracing the ancient spiritual path of Shamanism. She is a member of Michael Harner's Foundation for Shamanic Studies where she participates in the world’s foremost training programs in core shamanism. Sonya is also continuously enrolled in courses with Sandra Ingerman, world renowned teacher of shamanism, and she has studied with Huichol Shaman Brant Secunda.
