Events

Travelers from all fields and backgrounds are invited to explore sacred locales through the lens of mythology, art history and the creative arts on this unique journey of mind, body and spirit.

Venice, poised between earth and sky and upon misted waters, becomes the proactive locus of coniunctio for our explorations. In Venice, the prize of coniunctio, or the sacred union of opposites, incarnates as in no other city. Amidst Venice's waves, her profound imago buoys us through to the "secret middle place" touching infinite designs, colors, textures and patterns in art, music, dance and poetry. 

Participants lodge at the 5-star Bauer Palladio Hotel & Spa, an unparalleled property, housed in an original Palladian villa.
