Dear Friends,
This last weekend saw joyful Beltane celebrations in The Park community here in Findhorn, Scotland. Beltane – and the period that follows up to the Summer Solstice – is a time to burn away what is not needed, and to tend to the potential that seeks its expression within our own lives and the life of the world around us.
Last Sunday we celebrated the deeper meaning of the ancient festival, with Spirit of Iona: Beltane. Led by Katherine Collis and guests, we were joined online by a sacred circle of friends to begin a journey of noticing what the Earth and the Spirit of Iona can teach us in these times. The next session – Spirit of Iona: Summer Solstice – is on 19 June.
On 12 July we are delighted to launch an 8-week online version of our well-received Creating Findhorn Where You Are online core essence course. Participants are reporting a deeper connection to Spirit, integrating new practices into their daily lives, and experiencing a profound sense of sharing, belonging and inspiration.
We are warmly inviting all
who have been part of the Foundation’s 50-year journey to join us for our celebrations next Monday 9 May – scroll down to find out more or to book your place.
Our iconic Experience Week retreat continues to be held regularly at Cluny, and we have in these last few weeks welcomed
several groups to The Park, Cullerne and Cluny and look forward to welcoming you this Summer!
We are very grateful to be a part of a local and global Network of Light that recognises and nourishes the sacred in all of life. Together with people like you, we are co-creating a better world by dedicating our energy to embodying and expressing limitless love and truth – and creating spaces for others to do the same.
With love, Caroline
Caroline Matters, Lead Steward

I Feel SOOO Much Better
I've made a few changes in stepping away from
the routine and beginning to feel SOOO much better for the small, simple lifestyle changes… The birdsong is glorious and the scent of the Devon countryside is very grounding. Head clearer, feel more energised, and becoming clearer where I need to let go and where I will put my time and energy.
Ann, online participant on the Creating Findhorn Where You Are course.
