Back home on Negros Island

We were born and raised in a mixed household. Filipino by birth nationality. Spanish on our grand/father's side. Chinese on our grand/mother's side. Benedictine Catholic in education. Taoist in practical application.

East Coast, United States

Now that we have relocated to the western hemisphere we added the celebration of Jewish holidays as well. We are all too happy to be celebrating the new year three times each year now - on January 1, on Chinese New Year and on Rosh Hashanah.

London, United Kingdom

Once based on the solar calendar and twice on the lunar one - both eastern and western moon calendars. What fun it is! Our holiday season is greatly multiplied as a result. Not counting our star gazing highlights.

October is when all the fun begins - escalating throughout the last quarter with Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, New Year's Eve, Chinese New Year Valentine's Day. Purim, Passover, Holy Week, Easter.

Celebrating the Feast of four of our First Born, Easter last year.

We do have a short break between June and September - then the rounds of celebration and rituals start all over again. Happy Holidays indeed!

sound healing tools - singing bowls

sacred icons - yantra & horns

Far from being conservative or traditionalist, we ring in our holidays with all sorts of healing tools and sound techniques we accumulated through the years.

Gongs, bells, singing bowls. Rattles, drums, horns, shells. Incense, essential oils, intention candles.

All are invited and welcome. Each are honored and celebrated. It is always a grand occasion and we are happy to warm our hearts and hearths with love, light and laughter. All year round.

Let the holidays begin!
