Open your Daily Chamber
Each day: one short meditation, the moon and the planetary hour, a card to reflect on, and your journal.
Practice together
Every 28-day cycle we start on the same Monday and keep the same page each day. See when the next cycle begins, or print the free 28-day calendar.
Ways to Gather
Ask a Question
Stuck on a teaching, a symbol, or a practice? Send your question and get a plain answer by email, with resources from the site to follow on your own.
Discussion Nights
An open evening conversation where everyone is welcome to listen or share.
New · The Olytis Book Club
One book a month
A few pages a week, a members’ discussion board, and one evening together on the last Sunday. This month: The Kybalion, free in the Rose Library.
A Practice to Try
A color and sound meditation
Rising Tones
Seven centers, seven colors and seven soft tones, rising from root to crown. Each center has its own color and tone; let your attention rise with them. About a minute, or take it slow.
