SUMMARY:EARTH HEART TURKEY
DESCRIPTION:EARTH HEART\n6-9 November 2026\nDogubayazit, East Turkey\nat the foot of Mount Ararat\nA GLOBAL FIRE CEREMONY\nFor the fourth time we are preparing Earth Heart, our annual Worldwide Ceremony for the Earth & Humanity, paralel to the Climate Conference. Earlier versions were in Scotland in 2021, Sinai in 2022 and the Amazon in 2025. This year we will anchor in Turkey, the country that hosts the 31st Climate Conference. The date of the Earth Heart ceremony will be November 8, 2026, on a new moon and one day before the start of the COP. While last year was more of a water ceremony, tuning into to the waters of the Amazon, this year we want to invite you for a fire ceremony. The idea is – with all the destructive energy of fire in the world- to light the sacred fire of the heart.\nGATHERING OF THE TRIBES\nFor this we want to invite you for a 3-day gathering to hold a global ceremony at the foot of Mount Ararat. Ararat is a ‘lonely mountain’ of 5000 meters high on the border of Turkey, Iran and Armenia. It is also an immense powerspot for the whole Middle East. It is the perfect place to convene, tune in, do meditations and perform our Fire Ceremony, in connection with groups all around the world. During that stay we will share our experiences and feel into what needs to happen energetically at that very moment in time.\nLOCATION\n(TO BE CONFIRMED)\nDede Sebo Pansiyon\nKockiran Mah.

Note that the main language spoken on the retreat will be in English.\n2. You subscribe for the whole weekend, from Friday evening 18.00 till Monday 11.00. The retreat starts with dinner and the opening circle and meditation on the first night, and ends on the last morning with a closing circle.\n3. Please organize your own travel to and from Ararat. You can make your own journey through Turkey. Some groups will start in Sanliurfa, to visit Göbekli Tepe beforehand, or lake Van, with its ancient culture of Urartu, or the sources of the Tigris and Euphrates… There are many possibilities to explore, navigate and tune in to this moment in time. Feel what is your best way to get there and with whom.\n4. November in Eastern Turkey will be chilly. Please bring warm clothes.\n5. The place and the area we will go to is quite barren and desolate: mountain area. It is not the romantic hotspot you see in brochures for Turkey. But then again: the purposes of the visit isn’t a touristic one. We will go there to do energetic work. As we will work with the rules of Open Space: Expect the Unexpected!\n6. You are responsible for your own travel, transport and insurance. We only provide for the gathering, food and accommodation at the location. Make sure you have a valid passport and a fully covered travel- and medical insurance. Europeans do not need a visum for Turkey, only a ID card or international passport.\n7. We can’t take responsibility for any damage, illness, theft or other unforeseen events.\n8. No drugs of any sort are permitted, and we like you to limit alcohol, coffee and meat.\n9. Due to the context and content of this week, no children – nor animals – are allowed.\n10. We will be using Open Space, a way to give space to that what wants to reveal itself and to connect to that what resonates inside of you, the group, and the collective. Open Space gives the possibility to expect the unexpected, to be inspired by the moment, and to act from the heart. It is a sometimes discomforting method but one that can reveal magic beyond our imagination.\n11. The main intention of our work is personal healing and growth. So the fuller you personally engage in the process, the more it might bring to you. We encourage your preparation and devotion to this work by tuning in the months and weeks before, by asking a few questions to yourself: what is my intention? What do I want to achieve? What is my pitfall or my shadow? How can I prepare myself?\n12. The ‘energetic field’ of this region is quite intensive. We are close to Iran, Syria and Armenia. You need to be able to take responsibility for your own well-being, and stay firmly grounded in ‘3D’ reality.\n13. There is a limit of 25 places available in the hotel and gathering room.\n14. Please look at the recordings with background information that we held to prepare for this event. We will send them to you, when you subscribe. (Er zijn er nog geen zes op dit moment, ik zou het aantal nog niet vermelden)\n15. Inform yourself about the local culture and customs. And be aware that we are a guest in the region. We can’t perform any ceremonies without the explicit permission from the local authorities. We will be prospecting what is possible during our preparatory trip to Turkey in the month of September.\n
