Welcome to the Cycle of Transformation
Retreat Registration Form
Laying the Bones to Rest
August 2nd – 7th 2015
Aldermarsh Retreat Center, 6436 Maxwelton Rd., Clinton, WA 98236
Welcome to the New World. There is no business entity producing Cycle of Transformation retreats* for
you to consume. You are producing these retreats, well, actually your community members are and you
are new to the Last Mask Community so you don’t know them yet, but they are doing it. What you do
need to know is that the retreats, their profits and their losses, belong to the students—to you.
This also means that students like you are giving their time, energy, and resources to make your retreat
happen. Again, no business and no one being paid to do this. So your timely action and attention to
instructions is your first lesson in conserving our resource rich environment and living sustainably. This
basic capacity is essential as a foundation to actually living in ayni, gratitude-reciprocity-beauty.
Land Spirit Council welcomes you to this step on your journey of living your soul’s purpose with Love,
Wisdom, Power, and Vision. Land Spirit Council, (LSC) is the council within the LMCommunity
responsible for retreat creation and maintaining right relationship with the Great Spirits of the Land to
garner their support for successful retreats, like yours.
Money holds energy and, as such, it is sacred and a worthy sacrifice. If you register and pay with
intention your can direct your helping spirits and your ancestors to help manifest this retreat in the
physical world for you. These are the kinds of small acts of warriorship that a shamanic life is built on.
Your retreat fee covers: lodging, food, supplies, and all the various expenses associated with producing
a retreat of this quality. This covers essentially everything but your travel. You have options that increase
or decrease your final fee. Your sacrifice to the shaman includes your tuition, prep material and follow-up
material. This is payment is separate (page 3) and goes directly to the shaman.
To Register:
1. All fees go to our LMCommunity Treasurer, Renate Grundstrom, Renate99@comcast.net
2. All information about your registration choices goes to LSC so that it gets into our community
database and, for example, the correct food is there for you at the retreat. All questions about
payment and logistics also go to LSC, contact is Olivia Rich, oliviarich@gmail.com.
3. Your sacrifice to the shaman goes directly to the shaman at Last Mask Center,
christina@lastmaskcenter.org. Last Mask Center, 2343 SE 44th Ave, Portland, OR 97215.
4. Please complete this form, save your version, and email your version to ALL THREE parts
of the system: Renate, Olivia, and Christina. You are not registered until we receive your form
no matter how much money you send. You can make a group and email all of us at once.
5. If you pay by check, the addresses are above. Make all checks out to Last Mask Center. Your
deposit to reserve your space is $300 for all retreats. To receive your early payment discount of
$150 your full payment must be in by June 2nd, 2015. You may break your fee into as many
payments as you like. You do not need to resend the form with your additional payments.
6. You may use paypal or your CC with paypal. Please add .029% + $3 for each $100 to cover the
fees. Retreat fees go to Renate99@comcast.net. Shaman fees go to christina@lastmaskcenter.org
(*) The Cycle Teachings began in 1990 as one expression of spirit brought through in the work of
Christina Pratt. As such they were part of Last Mask Center (LMC), which at this time is our only legal
entity. In 2008 the Last Mask Community formation began and in 2009 the Cycle Teachings were given
to the LMCommunity, which is not yet a legal entity. Therefore all checks are still made out to Last
Mask Center, however LMCommunity and its funds are separate from LMC and its funds.

Three Money Things That Matter (…cuz everything effects everything).
1. Retreats with less than 8 people are not viable energetically for the shaman or the community.
Therefore retreats without 8 deposits ($300) by 6 months before the retreat begins will not be
produced. So, get your deposits in directly and with intention.
2. Stragglers, people who commit and do not take action, are an energy suck, plain and simple.
Stragglers deplete the resource rich environment of our community and neglect their responsibility for
understanding that everything affects everything. Those who pay in full on time receive a $150
discount. Those who pay after June 2nd 2015 pay full price.
3. Refunds are offered in accordance with the contract with the retreat site.

(At this point you are thinking, “Really!...can’t these people streamline this process and this ridiculous form! Can’t I
just register online?”
Yes, we can. And we have. And we have learned from that choice that it allows you to go unconscious. It allows you
to disengage from understanding things like the distinction between an energy exchange with your teacher and
paying for your room and board. It allows you to treat the community members who are creating a powerful and
beautiful transformational experience for you like a faceless business entity whose energy you can waste. It allows
you to disengage from the fact that your every action affects everything.
For example, there is a minimum fee we request for the shaman. Let’s call it X. It is different for every retreat. The
shaman is leading people through a process. It takes the same amount of energy to create that process for 8 or for
28. So when people are slow to send in their deposits and we have only 8, the number X is divided by 8 and that
number is used for pricing the retreat. If 28 people have sent in their deposits then X is divided by 28 and that
number is used for pricing. Your actions affect the cost of your retreat.
It is our commitment to our vision to produce the Cycle Retreats as a living expression of the Cycle Teachings. As
such even your registration is an opportunity to choose to live the teachings in the consciousness required to take
the steps and in the awareness that these actions are acts of power and sacrifice.)
Tuition:
Your tuition is a sacrifice to the spirit world. It is an offering to the shaman who leads you
through the retreat’s teachings. As soon as you pay your deposit you are placed on the altar and
become part of the manifestation of the teachings. The tuition for this retreat is $625.00. You are
welcome to sacrifice more for the work if you choose to.
Any sacrifice from the heart communicates directly to the spirit world. You clarify your desires
and commit to co-creating your retreat experience. A true sacrifice communicates your heart and
your mind. Through your sacrifice you are saying to the spirit world “I am stepping up here.
Please meet me.” More is not necessarily better. The spirit world conserves energy; it does not
appreciate excess or spiritual ambition. Feel free to offer more of a sacrifice to the shaman if you
are called to and if you are able.
