Free
We Invite You
Join us under the glow of each month’s full moon as we gather in a circle of community, support, and transformation. Our Full Moon Integration Circles are a beacon for those who seek to weave the profound insights gained from entheogenic journeys into the fabric of their daily lives. These gatherings are not just events but a sacred space where your intrinsic intuition is honored, and your journey towards self-alignment is supported. Together, let’s create a tapestry of transformative integration, building a life that aligns with our deepest truths, guided by the natural rhythms of the earth and the supportive embrace of community.
This is a monthly gathering, recurring each full moon. So, if this date doesn’t work for you, please see our events page to RSVP for one that is more convenient for you.
In 2025, Our Integration Sanctuary is Evolving…
Part of JourneyOn’s mission is to bridge ancestral wisdom with the modern world, healing the wound of separation. This is a big reason why we host these integration gatherings. After a year of beautiful gatherings and ceremonies in 2024, we agreed as a group to evolve the integration gatherings to orient around a dedicated theme.
So, for each month of 2025, we will center our circle around a theme topic. Into each theme, we will weave perspectives from three indigenous traditions: the Celtic Wheel of the Year, the Mayan Cholq’ij sacred calendar, and Arapaho Wisdom—inviting you to explore your integration journey through the lens of nature’s rhythms, ancestral cycles, and cosmic insights.
These traditions remind us that we are part of something greater, and by aligning ourselves with their wisdom, we connect with the sacred pulse of life itself.
Why did we choose these traditions to lean into?
We honor Celtic traditions as part of the Hartigan family lineage from Ireland, England, and Scotland; we integrate Mayan wisdom through our ongoing connection with Mayan elder Nana Mimi, whose ceremonies and prayers have been shared on our land; and we acknowledge the Arapaho tradition as the original stewards of the lands surrounding Boulder, Colorado, recognizing the deep-rooted wisdom of this place.
**Please Note: We are not experts in these traditions, and are learning as we go. We make every point we can to seek guidance from experts / elders in these traditions.
Monthly Themes for Full Moon Integration Circles
🌑 January – Commitment: Setting Intentions & Devotion to the Path
→ Celtic Imbolc | Mayan Nawal Iq’ (The Wind) | Arapaho The North Wind & Big Dipper
This month invites us to commit to our path. Imbolc is a time of awakening inspiration and devotion. Iq’ (The Wind) represents communication and the breath of life, urging us to speak our truths with clarity.

Each full moon ceremony will be hosted by a new community member, or as a collaboration as a group, to invite new perspectives and experiences.
The Flow of the Evening:
- We start with a ritual to open the space and container. We aim for this to be led by different members of the community, so we all share our gifts and passions as well as practice this important skill.
- The theme of the gathering is introduced, along with the perspectives from each of the three traditions.
- Community discussion begins, with an emphasis on how these topics are relevant to each persons personal journey.
- We wrap up the evening with song sharing. So, bring a song/poem and an instrument of your choice. Guitars, drums, and a piano are available (when at Lion Point).
- Container is closed with intention. As with opening the container, this is another time where community members are invited to lead/practice closing the container.
Our aim as coaches/facilitators is to nurture what emerges and help you more clearly meet your own truth.
Regarding Dogs:
The venue hosts two resident dogs.
Guests’ dogs must be well-behaved and sociable.
If dogs cause disturbances, they must remain outside or in vehicles (temperature permitting).
Conclusion of the gathering:
Gathering ends when it feels right to end it. This is usually around 9:00pm. Socializing is welcome until 10:00pm.
Safe Container:
We take careful attention to trauma-sensitive facilitation methods, understanding that change is anchored in the nervous system. So, we provide sensitive and empowering support to those navigating challenging experiences, with a focus on safety, empowerment, co-regulation, and self-compassion.
In the unfortunate event that you as a participant are disruptive to the safety of the container, we reserve the right to have a conversation about it with you and, if needed, ask you not to return. As the hosts and facilitators, we also reserve the right to determine what is considered too disruptive.
Etiquette:
Sobriety is medicine, please arrive under no influence of consciousness altering substances. The only thing we are consuming at this gathering is tea or cacao. We know there are many professionals amongst us, but we respectfully ask you to not solicit your goods or services within the container. Doing so really changes the energy of the space. This is critical for cultivating a trauma-informed, comfortable, psychologically-safe environment. We understand that connections are inevitable in communities of like-minded people, and we’re excited for you to form them. Sharing our passions and motivations often also involves speaking about our work, with its struggles and joys. We specifically ask that you do not try to sell anything during the event. You can connect with each other about such things privately, afterwards.
Who is this for?
This circle is shared through community, to be spread amongst friends. We are open to anyone interested in seeking support integrating their experiences from altered states of consciousness into their lives. This includes experienced journeyers, those new to the path, and supporters seeking to understand and offer better support. This is also a fantastic circle to attend if you’ve never had a particular entheogenic experience and are interested in connecting with like minded community before hand to expand your understanding and also build your support network.
Disclaimer:
While this is a supportive community space, it’s not a substitute for clinical mental health services.
journeyOn does not promote or condone the use of illicit substances.
We are asking all guests to sign our liability waiver before they arrive. You only need to sign it once. The link is provided at the bottom of this page.
Meet Your Facilitators
Hi, we’re Kiley and Christy. We are a mother-daughter team and co-founders of journeyOn LLC. Both certified professional life coaches with over a decade of experience between the two of us, we have helped hundreds of clients soften and lean into the beautiful mystery of being alive, re-creating compassionate relationships with themselves to build more authentic lives.
We specialize in relationship coaching, with an emphasis on the mother-daughter relationship, and the family.
We have additional certifications in trauma-informed psychedelic integration coaching (with an emphasis on harm reduction), Mindfulness Meditation Teaching, Internal Family Systems, Motivational Interviewing, Conversational Intelligence, The Art of Repair, and Relational Life Therapy, and more.
We’ve become incredibly skilled at something simple: Listening, the gentle act of nurturing what is emerging.
We approach facilitation from the perspective of honoring the intrinsic wisdom of your own intuition, creating a safe and nourishing container where your truth can be spoken. As humble servants of life, we are deeply devoted to bridging indigenous wisdom with modern society through community and relationships with this sacred land. Our mission is to honor and integrate these timeless teachings into our events, fostering a space where individuals can connect with both their inner wisdom and the collective knowledge of each other and our ancestors. The launch of these monthly full moon community integration circles marks a deepening of our commitment to this mission, offering a dedicated space for discovery, connection, and celebration in alignment with the cycles of nature and the wisdom it holds.
