Ajeet Full Moon Ceremony :: March 24th @van Houtenkerk Amsterdam Weesp
We have wonderful news! Ajeet returns to Amsterdam in 2024. An outburst of springtime as she will give three! concerts (March 20,21 and 22) ánd a Full Moon Ceremony (March 24) around the Spring Equinox.
Full Moon Ceremony
The full moon is a powerful time to gather with others in song and ceremony. It is a time to plant seeds of intention and to let the past fall away. Ajeet and her music have always carried a strong connection to the lunar cycles, so as she begins her first tour after a deep healing time, she will join us to honor this potent moment through song, prayer, creative practice and ritual. This ceremony will call on the elements to cleanse and renew us for the cycle ahead, and give us each a chance to go within to listen and connect.
We will enjoy cacao from México to soften and open with the music, celebrating the rich fertile soil within each of us. Ajeet is joined musically and in guiding the ceremony by Raffa Martínez and Aisling Urwin. Come be with us for an incredibly unique and rare moment to join these musicians in their own practices of ritual and connection.

High Chai Tea House
High Chai Teahouse is a mobile teahouse that you will encounter at all our HeartFire concerts. Come home from your trip to the concert and get to meet old and new acquaintances in this dreamy Victorian ambiance. At the bar you can order the tastiest quality products from the Chai Angels.
The hand-brewed Chai Tea has grown famous, and you can only get it here. You will also find yogi tea, fresh mint, ginger and lemon tea. Not to mention all the sweet treats…. Both raw vegan and home-baked cakes, brownies and refreshing authentic drinks.
This bohemian atmosphere bar was designed by Ilona Dorgelo. The High Chai once started when Ilona made cake and chai for friends with a heartbreak. With the theater school and three-star restaurant De Librije as a background, this accidentally grew into a serious concept at our HeartFire concerts.
