Cacao Ceremony – Queer Bridges

Let us gather with Cacao under the last quarter moon, a time to release, restore, and prepare for the new cycle ahead. Rooted in traditions carried by Indigenous and mixed-heritage communities of South America, this ceremony creates a grounded space for our inner child, our ancestors, and our LGBTQ+ community.

We open the ceremonial space with intention, share warm cacao, and join in a medicine-song circle that helps us settle into the present moment. A guided meditation supports our inward journey and deepens our connection with the cacao.

Cacao is a gentle but steady medicine, known for opening the heart and clearing the mind. Whether you seek clarity, emotional release, or simply a moment of stillness, this ceremony offers a sacred space to reconnect.

Queer Bridges: Forging connections and providing resources for LGBTQIA+ people with migration experiences.

Queer people with migrant backgrounds in Berlin often face unique challenges in their daily lives that can limit their access to supportive communities and inclusive environments.

With the support of the Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Stiftung, we have developed the Queer Bridges program to overcome these barriers. We provide resources, networking and support in a welcoming environment for queer immigrants and refugees through our special program. Our goal is to foster a sense of belonging to the local LGBTQIA+ community, enabling smooth integration and an improved quality of life for queer folks with experiences of migration and/or displacement.

✅ Our Queer Bridges program will continue to evolve and we are always happy to hear about your needs. If you are interested, you can send us an e-mail to stay informed about further updates.
