VISION QUEST TO CREATE AN AMAZING 2011
On Sunday 5th December 2010
"See your most powerful, creative and abundant path for
2011. And know how to turn your most exciting
possibilities into reality."
Let the creative intelligence of the Vision Quest show you how!
ONE-DAY Vision Quest – Starting at Rosecroft Avenue, Hampstead, London
on Sunday 21st November 2010
Don't wait until 2011 has already started.
We invite you to begin a year as never before!
THE CALL OF THE VISION QUEST
In a culture of buildings and concrete – a culture of ever-more complex technologies, it’s easy to forget that we all speak the miraculous language of Nature. It’s easy to forget that we can all seek and find our true nature in Nature. And if we know how to approach Her, Nature will gift us insights and answers to any questions we wish to ask.
Since the dawn of human time, people have gone to Nature to seek guidance and renewal; to let their old lives and limitations go, to find the energies where their spirit may be rekindled. They have gone to Nature to discover a more alive and powerful identity waiting to be brought to life within them.
The Vision Quest is the name of this journey and connection with Nature. And this is an opportunity for you to directly experience the power of Vision Questing and lay the foundations for a truly amazing 2011.
We are all increasingly being drawn to express our innate creativity and aliveness. We invite you to make 2011 your most spectacular year yet, full of vibrant new possibilities. We invite you to make 2011 the year where you embrace your power, freedom and abundance.
The Vision Quest is the most potent and creative way to manifest the life you truly want. This is because you are guided and gifted wisdom from the most powerful and wise teacher of all: Nature.
MOVING BEYOND THE MIND
In a culture so obsessed with logic and the mind, the Vision Quest allows you to access the more magical and symbolic aspects of your life. Consciously creating sacred space brings you into an expanded state where you can literally experience yourself from different perspectives. And you begin to see through the heavy and confusing veil of thoughts which normally obscures your clarity. On the Vision Quest you notice how time slows down and you begin to recognise the voice of your spirit. The beauty and power of the Vision Quest steadily moves you beyond your habitual patterns and you notice the sacred dimension is always present, and you can enter it naturally.
STEPPING INTO THE REALM OF YOUR POWER
As you receive wisdom and guidance from Nature you are moved to ground your dreams: and when grounded, your dreams suddenly have power and become an ‘attractor force’, moving you towards them. This is where you step into your own power. You see how you only become powerful when you no longer force anything. You allow Life to move you and show you the way. In Shamanic traditions it is said that one who is truly powerful has no power; they have surrendered themselves to Spirit and are moved by Spirit. All struggle ceases and we relinquish the victim in ourselves, knowing that wherever we are in life is perfect.
BURDENS INTO GIFTS - FREEDOM
The Vision Quest invites us to recognise the burdens that we have carried with us through the last year. In the Quest we treat each burden as sacred. We give thanks for the things that have made us stronger and called us to know ourselves more intimately. And then, like the snake shedding its old skin, we give our burdens back to Nature and ask Her to release the energy held in all our past challenges. We ask Her to cleanse this energy and make it available for our renewal and vitality. This is the invocation of your freedom.
MOVING INTO THE HEART
The Vision Quest guides you to your heart – the centre of your being. The spirit of adventure has called you forward to gather with others like yourself. And together you journey back to your inner peace. You journey with experienced Guides that have made the Quest many times and know how to assist you with love, compassion and power. Our purpose is to help you discover something amazing about life, and be moved by love.
ILLUMINATING YOUR VISION
As the Vision Quest progresses you call upon the ‘Vision’ of Nature. This is a process of harmonising yourself with Nature so that your visions and dreams are Her visions and dreams. When there is harmony between what you seek to manifest and what Life has sent you here to do, you enter into the great dance of life. You experience life as a creative flow of energy. You see the path of joy and the path of tears and you choose to walk the path of joy.
" Thank you both for your skillful, spacious guidance. I shall be returning to my little nature temple regularly to refresh and energize. I'm so proud of our beautiful sacred Heath. " Marc Itzler - Property Project Manager and Musician
ABUNDANCE
The Vision Quest guides you to know the true nature of abundance: the abundance of your life and the abundance of the Human world. You connect with the abundance of elements, plants and creatures that you share this earth with. And as you recognise the signature of abundance, you are drawn to how you can literally ‘bring abundance to life’ leaving the world of winners and losers behind. You can then consciously evoke the energy of abundance to assist you in realising your vision.

Esther De Angelis
Esther De Angelis is a woman of passion and colour who believes that each of us has powerful creative gifts to explore and share with the world. She is of the opinion that creativity framed in ritual ceremony unleashes hitherto undiscovered forces and resources within the individual and the collective. She is adamant that aliveness and imagination is key to the evolution, human connection and community that will serve us all in this 21st century.
Her journey of the creative arts and spiritual transformation began 20 years ago after a brief training and career as an accountant. Since then she has combined her practice as a Visionary Artist with other exuberant creative disciplines such as dance and drama; devising and pioneering her own practise, Creative Chakra Dance which she’s taught successfully at festivals all over the UK since 2000. Esther’s vivacious spirit also extends to the field of music where she has led and co-facilitated many Sound Circles, Sacred Voice Circles and Drum Circles for adults and children for twelve years. She is more than likely to be found with a magic handbag of instruments wherever she goes – introducing sound and play to all she meets.
She has an extensive knowledge and experience of art practices and is intent on sharing the magic of the arts in community, particularly the Carnival Arts. Her visual work has evolved to reflect her own spiritual discovery and journey into ritual healing practises, disciplines and world cosmologies such as those from The Kabbalah, Yoga and Shamanism. She has studied with many Spiritual teachers and Shamans from around the world and in recent years has assisted and led many sacred rituals here in the UK and abroad. In the past few years she has had many wonderful insights with the sacred medicine plants.
Esther embodies a very practical, heartfelt nature and she applies this with other personal growth and healing modalities to her transformational work as a visionary coach, hypnotherapist and healer. She continues to present yoga as an incredible movement practise that every person deserves to experience for themselves and loves teaching people to come into a greater, magical relationship with their bodies and life. She has lived in and around Hampstead and the heath for 33 years.

We will journey to a number of different locations throughout the day and as your Vision Quest Guides, we are there to hold and sustain that sacred space and unfolding, so that you are empowered to be as free and creative as you wish.
" Dear Davide - It’s me who should be thanking you and Esther for organising the Vision Quest which I found so powerful and illuminating.
I actually felt that I only verbalise a small percentage of my experience. It was if I was sinking into to the core of my being. I could see the effects of the day in terms of images and even paintings but there seemed to be a gap between the richness of these and words. Listening to the others sharing kept giving me ‘ahha’ moments and points of recognition.
Today was in many ways a continuation from the Quest. I walked on the common and was very aware of all the birds flying overhead and the brightness of the winter light. A large black dog bounded towards me and instead of having my usual reaction of fear and unease, I just watched it. He snarled initially then licked my hand! So the magic continues! " Arabella Lewis, Artist
