Beneath the frozen waters of the Arctic lives one of the most wild and powerful figures in Inuit mythology - Sedna, goddess of the sea, and one of the outermost known bodies in our solar system. Her themes are ancient yet still alive today: vulnerability, betrayal, transformation, and the wisdom of the untamed feminine waiting beneath the surface of our own lives. Join author and polar traveller Kari Herbert and astrologer and acoustic alchemist Alison Dhuanna for an immersive 2.5-hour evening of myth and storytelling, mindful drawing, and a potent gong bath — a journey into Sedna's world and your resonance with her.

Kari Herbert lived for two years as a small child with a remote community of Polar Inuit in Northwest Greenland. Taken to the High Arctic at just ten months old by her father, the polar explorer Sir Wally Herbert, she grew up among twelve hunter-gatherer families, learning the rhythms of a life lived in close relationship with land, ice, animals, and spirit. In this talk, Kari reflects on the spirit of Greenland and its people — exploring Inuit traditions, their spiritual and practical relationship with the land, and the quiet knowledge that comes from generations of living within a demanding environment. She also speaks to the present moment: the accelerating effects of climate change on the Arctic, the shifting ice, and the growing external pressures on Greenland’s land and resources.
