Overview
Prepare to welcome the year 2025 with deep intention, vision, and a renewed connection to the cycles of nature. Join us for 12 Nights, 13 Moons, an online course led by Sabine Lichtenfels. Rooted in ancient wisdom this course offers you a chance to celebrate the winter solstice in a meaningful, communitarian, and reflective way.
What you’ll experience
- Winter Solstice Celebration: Learn how to honour this sacred time when the light begins its return, and how to stay connected to the earth’s cycles.
- Engage in a daily meditation: Written and read (in English and German) by Sabine Lichtenfels, to support you in finding your access to deep listening and mindfulness.
- The Power of Thunder and Earth: Inspired by the I Ching and ancestral teachings, explore the symbolism of thunder beneath the earth – a movement that’s just beginning, like our own intentions for the new year.
- Vision Setting for 2025: From December 21st to January 6th, you’ll write down 13 intentions for the upcoming year. Each day, from December 25th onward, you’ll meditate, select one intention, and release it into the fire at sunset.

Each of the 12 nights will guide you through different elements and aspects of life, helping you strengthen your connection to the world around you and within you:

- Day 12: Envision a healed earth and your role in it.
