House of the Sun Program
astromythological journey
to Greece
Guided by Hestia - the Guardian of the Sacred Fire - whose main attribute is to Illuminate, we will continue on this journey through Greek temples and myths to delve into the mysteries of Eleusis and find self-nourishment and centering. Regulator of alchemical processes and decoder of occult symbols, Hestia for the Greeks or Vesta for the Romans will occupy the center of our Wheel and will teach us about Focus and Perception, about how to collect symbols of positive experiences from the past to reinforce the feeling of self-esteem and encourage appreciation of their own history.
Your fire is protective, spreader of benefits and enriching. Own of those who seek inner vision and are no longer intimidated by their own shadows, because only by accepting all our parts do we become integral, complete and self-sufficient. On this Journey, in search of Providing Abundance, we will dive into the clear waters of the Aegean Sea, visiting remote temples and monasteries that invite us to quiet our minds and find a focus, breaking free from the confusion, disorder or disorientation that may be immersed, to rescue Power and Autonomy.
We will work on recognizing our strengths, expanding our heart's flame to recognize and honor all experiences and appreciate all that we already have. Only then will we be able to conquer our dreams and keep their flame burning.
