The StarHouse
Built between 1989 and 1990 by a small founding community dedicated to sacred geometry, the StarHouse is a wooden ceremonial hall whose axis aligns precisely with the North Star and the four cardinal directions — the structure is, in the founders' own words, "a star map." Its triangular form embodies the Pythagorean tetractys, a ten-point figure arranged in four rows, and its proportions encode solstices, equinoxes, and planetary positions. Surrounding the hall on 140 organically certified acres are nine outdoor sacred sites: a zodiac standing-stone circle with 1.5-billion-year-old Colorado stones, a seven-circuit labyrinth whose walls were built one stone per visitor, a human-scale dodecahedron, a "Power Tower" filled with paramagnetic stone, and a Council Grove of old-growth Ponderosa pines. All Seasons Chalice Church has stewarded the property since its incorporation in 1994.
The move: Attend a new moon or full moon ceremony together, then spend the hour before or after wandering the stone labyrinth and standing-stone zodiac circle at dusk. The short walk from the parking area down a chip-wood path into the canyon bowl sets the mood before you even step inside.
📍 Before you go The property is not open for drop-in visits. To walk the grounds you must either be registered for an event (arrive up to 30 minutes early) or attend a member day. Events run year-round — summer solstice and new/full moon ceremonies are the easiest entry points. Park at the top of the unpaved driveway and walk two minutes downhill; wear shoes with grip. Do not follow GPS to Linden Drive — it leads to a locked private gate.
