Big Island Night Sky Cosmology

June 3 - 10, 2012

Beach at Ramashala

Big Island of Hawaii - flying into Hilo

Featuring the Rare Venus Transit and Comprehensive Night Sky Cosmology of the Turning of the Ages
with Daniel Giamario and Cayelin K Castell
The next Venus Transit does not happen until December 10, 2117 so this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and will be visible from Hawaii.

This magical event is being held on the Big Island of Hawaii at the Ramashala Retreat Center. In addition to the Night Sky and Cosmology of the Turning of the Ages teachings, and deepening and honoring our sacred connection to the stars and planets, this event includes many other special features.

During our magical week near the black sand beach - across the street and a short walk from Ramashala - we will be visiting:

  • The Lava Flows (see pictures below)
  • The Sacred Cave to Pele and Hiʻiaka (Pele’s favorite sister, more on the story to follow soon)
  • An exotic Garden of Eden type Fruit Farm
  • Green Lake (see below)
  • Imiloa (a planetarium and astronomy center dedicated to remembering the skills of the ancient navigators. Imiloa is a Hawaiian word that means exploration driven by a sense of wonder and imagination)

We are also have an authentic Sacred Cultural Hawaiian Story Telling sharing with us not only cultural stories but also sacred sites of the Polynesian navigators (including a 400 BC Marquesan canoe landing site) and heiau’s.

All Fees for this event need to paid in full by May 1, 2012. We are offering $100 off the prices below for all those paid in Full by April 1.

Daily class schedule is yet to be determined and may vary with lots of time to enjoy the surrounding area. Night Sky is a main feature of this gathering so most evenings (as long as we have clear skies) will be spent exploring the night sky.

Beautiful Green Lake is one of only two natural fresh water lakes on the Big Island located in a 400 year old crater. The lake is spring-fed in a lush jungle setting. A great place to swim and hike and enjoy the diversity of jungle and vistas. Some more info on Green Lake with pictures.

    Good Morning,

    I am considering making plans to attend the Hawaii event. I have never had any class and am wondering if I would be able to understand what will be presented. Thank you. Blessings, Barbara Treece

    Hi Barbara, yes…if you are interested in the Night Sky this is the perfect place to begin understanding and knowing these mysteries in a very deep personal way. Especially in such a magical setting. You may not grasp it completely with your left brain right away…it has taken all of of us time to learn the nuances of this and we are all still learning with new discoveries and insights happening each time we engage the Night Sky.

    What we emphasize is the magical, intuitive, ceremonial connection and you will learn how to tune into that during our time together. Plus, of course the left brain teachings are there too. I was so surprised after my first Night Sky back in 1992 how much I remembered and could share with others a couple of weeks later. Let me know if you have any other questions. Joyful Blessings, Cayelin
