Event Description

Holding the Scales: Creating Balance in a Chaotic World 

Join the Mystical Rose Chapter and fellow members from across the region for a weekend retreat in the quiet of Choke Canyon State Park.

Over two days, we will balance contemplation and relaxation — an Atrium Convocation, a Council of Solace, presentations and workshops from visiting Rosicrucian speakers, a sound-and-cymatics experience, walking meditation and morning Tai Chi, communal meals, and an evening of campfire fellowship under the stars.

Attend the full weekend or just the portions that call to you.

Full schedule, lodging options, what to bring, and registration ($45 per person). Please visit https://holding-the-scales.pplx.app for more information about the scheduling and registration.

This inspiring weekend gathering is open to all AMORC members, friends of the Order, and any spiritual seekers drawn to our work.

Members are reminded to please bring their active membership credentials.
