Autumn and Winter 2019-2020 Workshops

Sharing Our Lives 

As women of all ages and from different walks of life, there’s much to talk about, such as who are we, and where are we in our lives? This is a time to mull over with each other the issues and questions that come up for us in daily life, getting a chance to share and hear the wisdom from within ourselves and each other. As we share our joys and concerns, we can count on mutual support and confidentiality. Each meeting will be guided by a theme for that session and set of questions designed to use as a springboard for sharing. New participants invited to join these monthly meetings at any time.

Celebrating Seasonal Rituals • Winter Solstice

Gathering in this quarterly circle, we honor ancient holy days that women have celebrated for millennia. We feed and strengthen our spirits with many different gifts and directions: Meditation; music and sound; anointing our energy fields with Aura-Soma; color considerations; the gifts of Nature; positive readings; and, of course, the support of each other! If you yearn for a small, peaceful, sacred space in which your soul can be fed, this quarterly gathering is worth experiencing. Enjoy the uplifting effects of shared sacred ritual. The element we will be focusing on is Fire. The Aura-Soma colors are royal blue for the year and Pink (for Unconditional Love – white and red blended…)  for this particular circle. Bring a small, sacred object to add to the altar we co-create, if you’d like. Spring Equinox Circle is March 22, 2020.
