Women’s circles embody a powerful and timeless tradition transcending cultures, creating a vibrant space for connection and unity. Often coinciding with the new full moon, these gatherings invite participants to harness the profound energy of the lunar cycle and the divine feminine. Today, these circles are more essential than ever, attracting women eager to rediscover their authentic selves and cultivate meaningful relationships with others.
These sacred gatherings, known as red tents or moon lodges, are open to women of all ages and invite them to come together during the new or full moon. The age-old connection between lunar and female cycles has historically empowered women, with the full moon representing an opportunity for collective awareness and spiritual growth. In this nurturing atmosphere, women unite to listen, support, and uplift one another, free from judgment.
While our meetings may not align with the traditional new or full moon, rest assured that the energies of the Moon will illuminate each gathering! Together, we will channel the strength of the Divine Feminine to inspire and replenish our spirits. The essence of womanhood is evolving, reflecting the diverse experiences of each individual. Consequently, anyone identifying as a woman is warmly welcomed to join this transformative ceremony!
What happens in a circle?
A circle is a sacred space for self-discovery and rejuvenation, free from judgment and filled with love. Gatherings begin with Raven inspiring the group to unite as a sisterhood, sharing their invaluable wisdom and life experiences. Participants often engage in healing rituals, such as burning cleansing herbs, meditation, intention-setting, or creating a meaningful altar that resonates with their journeys. While these circles are women-centered, their structure remains flexible and open to creativity.
Women’s circles offer a beautiful opportunity to connect with others from diverse backgrounds, celebrating the shared wisdom from lived experiences. Modern iterations of these timeless gatherings resonate deeply with women longing to rediscover themselves and foster meaningful connections.
