Walking in the footsteps of your sovereignty for the Lammas Solar Festival

Take a sacred walk through hidden London with me.

Traveled by generations of Monarchs to know themselves. We will walk the same journey, use the potential of pilgrimage and walking to access our freedom at this solar festival of Lammas or Lughnasadh.

Lammas is a time of transformation, when we see all of nature ripening and we prepare ourselves to bring what we have worked on to a place of fruition. July is seen as a time of preparation for this festival and a time for breath, to allow all that we have worked on to form itself before we bring our attention to ripening what we have worked hard to manifest. This pilgrimage allows us, through owning sovereignty, to receive the freedom to continue this journey to our highest potential.

Pilgrimage

London-based landscape designer Jeremy Rye will be leading guided tours of the four London walks that were known to Kings and Queens since the beginning of the monarchy in England.

These spiritual walks were undertaken by the monarchs and the landscape keepers of the time. They would journey at specific points in their reign, at certain times of the year or for the marking of events. These were not only a means of navigating a city but seen as instrumental in maintaining its health, spiritual and commercial success.

Unlike a typical history tour, this is an opportunity for participants to mirror these spiritual journeys, in part to strengthen our sense of self, answer questions we have and to transform. They are an ideal companion to other self-reflection practices such as journaling, therapy or meditation.

Jeremy Rye is a practicing landscape architect who integrates history and spirituality in his work.
