Welcome to Celestial Heart, a syncretic faith, which combines different teachings and practices from a few different traditions, such as the Afro-Brazilian Santo Daime, Umbandaime, Umbanda, and Spiritism — allowing the various perspectives about the world of spirit to conjunct and correlate. At its core, the church is also an esoteric school of mediumistic awakening that studies the development of consciousness in theory and practice.

Within our sacred gatherings, we consecrate the Holy Sacrament of Ayahuasca, or Daime, and together journey into the realms of the astral, where we commune and connect to spirit, learning about ourselves, the nature of our soul and our innate connection to life itself. A journey, we often find, is a journey home, falling in love with ourselves.

During the ceremonies, we dive deep into our souls and invite divinity through prayer, song, meditation, music, embodied movement, ritual dance, and teachings. The ceremony is a carefully designed process that allows for deep transformation and spiritual awakening. Participating in this work requires seriousness and a deep understanding of the nature of our sacrament, Ayahuasca. Our ceremonies are structured, guided and ritualized, allowing for safety and integration.

We usually hold two seven to eight-hour ceremonies within a weekend — Saturday and Sunday, ending with a sharing circle on Sunday evening. Please take note that in committing to join our ceremonies, you have to be able to stay for the entire duration, stay overnight (for weekend ceremonies), and be present for the sharing circle. There are different guidelines and restrictions to our ceremony protocol. For example, remaining in noble silence, wearing white clothes, and a few others. You can read more about the ceremony protocols here.
