Animal Dreaming by Scott Alexander King
Australian farmland - the growing lands Australian wilderness and bushlands Australian outback and desert The massive Australian coastline Australian cities and surrounds
The Dreamtime is the time before time - when all things were being created and when everything was 'learning' to exist. Depicting all things as equal, the teachings of the Dreamtime suggest that we are capable of communing with the forces of nature and to speak readily to the animals, birds, reptiles, fish and insects.

TAKE SOME HEALING TIME OUT FOR YOURSELF

By participating in Scott's SPIRITUAL DEVELOPMENT and HEALING Retreats

For years Scott searched to find answers, attending one spiritual development circle after another. He did so because he yearned to discover the answer to one simple question: "Who am I?" Within that question was his desire to discover the reasons for his life experiences, why he was here and what his purpose was. And these few simple questions led him on the most exciting, life-changing, soul-enhancing adventure of of his life.

And now Scott invites you to embark on your own life-changing, soul-enhancing adventure.

By attending Scott's 2-day [season-inspired] Spiritual Development and Healing Retreats, you will spend quality time with a guy who knows what it feels like to yearn, search and wonder. After years of personal development, healing and growth, Scott believes it's time to share some simple (and some not so simple) techniques that will inevitably see you access your own true self, develop your intuition and reconnect with Spirit.

So if you yearn to:

  • Remember who you are, why you're here and why life has unfolded the way it has
  • Reclaim or deepen your connection to the Earth Mother and the Creator Spirit
  • Hone your intuition, psychic abilities, self-love, trust and passion

Then, come along to one of Scott's retreats. You will be pleased that you did.

Warburton is located in the heart of the Yarra Valley, Victoria's wine district and rich source of delicious produce including organic meat, cheese, preserves, fruit and vegetables.

We will be right in the heart of town for most of the weekend, affording you the opportunity to experience Warburton's award winning cafes, the famous Yarra River and some wonderful new-age gift shops.

During the weekend, you will experience:

Evening prayers on the Saturday night atop Mt. Donna Buang
Mt. Donna Buang is a very powerful mountain overlooking Warburton, famous for its UFO sightings and as the supposed resting place of the Rainbow Serpent. Local indigenous people once trekked to the summit to be close to Spirit. We will stop on the way to collect the crystal clear mountain spring water that constantly flows from the side of the mountain. This water is revered for its mystical healing properties, with many tourists visiting Warburton for no other reason but to drink the water.

Vision Quest in the stunning Redwood Forest
This deathly silent forest is energetically very powerful. The presence of Spirit is almost tangible. It is a rare thing to see birds or animals as it is such a sacred place. It was originally planted by the water board as an 'experiment', but has now become a favourite place for the locals to meditate. We will gather here on the Sunday at noon to sit alone and call for a vision.

Morning Meditation and Dream Circle on the banks of the Yarra River
Naturally imbued with deposits of Pyrite, Amethyst, Rose Quartz, Smokey Quartz, Citrine, Milky Quartz and Clear Quartz, the Yarra River births only 15 km from Warburton. At our end, the Yarra River is home to Platypus, Water Birds and Native Fish. You would be forgiven for thinking it was a different river to the one that flows through the heart of Melbourne. The Yarra River makes for a truly beautiful spot for morning meditation and dream sharing. We will all meet on the banks of the Yarra River at dawn on the Sunday.

DIRECTIONS TO WARBURTON:


If you have a GPS, or a 'satellite navigation system', program your destination as '3375 Warburton Highway, Warburton 3799'

Or visit: www.whereis.com. This site offers directions and a map to any destination in Australia. Just type in the above address and hit 'get directions' or 'get map'

Or you can follow our directions (which isn't always a good idea!):

From Melbourne
Driving east towards the Dandenong Ranges, the most common route is Whitehorse Road (which becomes Maroondah Highway) to the township of Lilydale. The Warburton Highway starts about two kilometres past Lilydale ... the turn off is well sign posted. As you proceed along the Warburton Hwy you will pass through Wandin, Seville, Woori Yallock, Launching Place, Yarra Junction, Wesburn and Millgrove ... and then you will hit Warburton. As you come into Warburton ... you will see (on your left) The Patchwork Teahouse (a cafe), an old bus depot that sells Balinese stuff, tennis courts, a video store, a restaurant called 'River View' ... and then a big, tan-coloured building with Circle of Stones splashed across the top ... and you’ve arrived. The trip (from Melbourne to Warburton) should take approx two hours (give or take).

From Melbourne Airport
If you're flying into Melbourne, and can't be bothered with public transport, we advise you hire a car. A taxi trip to Warburton would cost over $200. Alternatively, catch a taxi from the airport to Flinders Street Station and then catch a train to Lilydale. From Lilydale, take a bus to Warburton. If you decide to hire a car though, the Tullamarine Freeway will take you straight into the city of Melbourne. We suggest you take the Flemington Road exit and follow the signs to the Eastern Freeway. NB: To journey along the Tullamarine Freeway you may require a 'City Pass' or ‘Tulla Pass’ (depending on where you enter or exit the Freeway). Passes may be purchased, or further information gleaned, by visiting www.citylink.com.au. From the Melbourne Airport, you will most likely only need to purchase a 'Tulla Pass', but to be sure, visit the site and click on 'Types of Passes' to determine which pass you will need. At the end of the Eastern Freeway turn right onto Springvale Road and then left onto Whitehorse Road (also known as Maroondah Highway). >From here follow Maroondah Highway to the township of Lilydale. The Warburton Hwy starts about two kilometres past Lilydale ... the turn off is well sign posted. As you proceed along the Warburton Hwy you will pass through Wandin, Seville, Woori Yallock, Launching Place, Yarra Junction, Wesburn and Millgrove until you hit Warburton.

An idea:


Those of you travelling from interstate, who would like to share the cost of a hire car, might want to network and timetable your flights so they correspond. Or you may simply want to share accommodation once you arrive in Warburton. Either way, why not post a 'call out' on the forum and organise a group to save yourselves stress and money? You can post your thoughts here. Name your post 'Warburton Residential Weekend 2008' so everyone knows what to look for.


Please bring with you:
