Evenstar's Chalice

Evenstar's Chalice began as a sumptuous retail shop in downtown Ypsilanti. “What is Evenstar’s Chalice? On a shelf? On the wall? On that little table over there?

In the fall of 2024 we closed our brick-n-mortar -- but you can still shop with us online and attend classes, events and sessions with Mara Evenstar in person! We are more than a retail shop, we are a sanctuary of ‘living altars’, a place to honor and give intention to those stories we all live in. We are, after all, amazing storytellers, and we cannot help but make space and placement for those s

tories in our daily lives. Take a look around your home…Where do you lay the stories and ‘treasures’ of your journey? Evenstar’s Chalice celebrates your story with possibilities, with charms, with wit, with tokens and talismans, with smells, and visions, with a wave of a hand, and the utterance of words. We tease at your senses, to open them more fully. Come, fill your chalice and play in the spirit of wonder!”

Tenderness is no weakness.
I hear the roar of tender hearts.

I tend the tenders
As the tenders light the tinders
Of the fires of transformation.

May the flames be tended
Like the fields of hope.

Tenderness is no weakness.
It takes a fierce strength
To temper and shape a new world.

It takes the tender hands of the grandmother
To tend to, to attend
The birth of the new with tenderness.

For tenderness is no weakness.
It is a quiet explosion of love.
-Mara Evenstar, 2025

We are coming up on our annual event, A Devotional for the Marys. In preparing, I was reminded of the above piece of writing....and how the atrocities of the world tend to drop us into the forgetting of the power of soft power.

I hope these words help tend to your remembering. Remember your tender heart. When paired with tending hands, we birth anew infinite possibilities.

Reiki for Self-Healing Workshop

Next scheduled: Monday, March 16, 6-9pm, in Ypsilanti, MI

Reiki can catalyze a lifetime of opening, healing, and profound transformation. Whether you feel called toward personal restoration or toward serving others, Reiki offers a beautiful, steady current of energy that can weave itself naturally into your daily life.

This introductory workshop centers on the art of self‑healing. You will receive your first attunement, opening you to the flow of Reiki energy and establishing your connection as a conduit for this universal life force. From this foundation, we will explore how to integrate these energies physically, emotionally, and spiritually; how to support the balancing of your own energy body; and how to deepen your intuitive perception.

This class is designed to help you cultivate an intimate relationship with Reiki—one that nourishes your well‑being, strengthens your inner clarity, and supports your ongoing evolution.

In this workshop you will:

· Learn about / refresh your understanding of “what is Reiki?”

· Receive a Reiki Level 1 attunement

· Receive guidance on working with Reiki for self-healing

· Learn & practice Usui Reiki protocols for self-healing hand positions

Program Pathway Information (Reiki Level 1)

This workshop is part of a trio of Reiki offerings that can be taken in any order or experienced as a complete sequence. Each workshop stands fully on its own, offering a meaningful experience whether you are simply curious, seeking personal healing, or exploring your relationship with energy.

They also serve as nourishing refreshers for those who have previously trained in Reiki and wish to reconnect with the practice or receive another attunement.

For those called to pursue certification, all three workshops—Reiki for Self‑Healing, Reiki & Working with Energy, and Sharing Reiki with Others—are required and together provide the full foundation needed for Reiki I certification.

Each workshop limited to 10 registrants total, minimum of 4.
$75 ea

Taught by members of our Reiki Master Teacher Team
Held in Ypsilanti (address provided upon registration)
