2022 Camps
Radiant Seed
Radiant Seed is a temple devoted to radical ritual and reimagining our relationship to the wild. Radiant Seed is specifically attuned to elemental sacred expression and the cultivation of primal instinct through embodied devotional practices.
Our offering to the playa is the Temple of the Black Sun. Here, you will encounter interactive ceremonies and radical rituals that promote aliveness at all levels, as well as alignment with the energetics and body of the Earth. Ceremonies and activations will be offered twice daily at sunrise and sunset to explore the energies of the threshold and what that space might hold.
Come experience and explore your true nature with us.

Hometown: New York CityReligious As Fuck
We are a bunch of people that speak openly about our relationship with God. Some of whom simply have found Christianity as well as other faiths to be helpful in our own spiritual journeys. When we interact with people at Religious AF, we are there to welcome them, serve them and answer their questions. We aren’t recruiting them, or asking them to join anything. We practice Radical Inclusion, conversation, prayer, and ritual to all who seek it: gay, trans, straight, high, sober, clothed, naked, polyamorous, monogamous, celibate, gracious, and grumpy alike. We have welcomed people in all of those categories and more because we also identify as those folks. We want to participate and co-create experiences that open hearts and connect us with the Divine.
