About this Event
Please Note: This event is limited in numbers to comply with current Covid restrictions. It is now SOLD OUT. Please register on the waitlist. If restrictions lift, I will offer more places.
The Moon Lodge is a space provided for the gathering of women as we weave the threads of our life. It is a place where we can come and laugh, cry, sing, celebrate and hold each other as we flow with the tides of our life. Where we can experience the in-breath and the out-breath, and the space in-between; and be reminded of the sacred things in our life – our connection to Self, our children, our lovers, our sisters, our families, and our Mother Earth. It's a simple place where we can return to the heart of community and be present for each other and share our ocean of life experience…
This evening we will celebrate Summer Solstice with Artemis WildSnake House.
We will align with the energy of this gorgeous full season. This time that is represented on the Women's Wheel by the fullness of mothering, and the seasonal representations of full bloom, fruiting, maximum potential, beauty, ripeness and full light. This time is also represented by ovulation when speaking about the menstrual cycle. It is the PEAK. The great openness and expansion of energy and enthusiasm.
Summer Solstice is the 4th sabbat on the Women' Wheel. It is the last of the celebrations before we begin the descent into the autumnal days of shedding and 'letting go'. Its the time of year with the longest daylight hours before we descend into the light slowly receding. It sits at the top of the wheel where we have risen to this point over the last 6 months since Winter when we were birthed into new light after the June Winter Solstice. We then spent the last few 4 months of Spring 'planting' seeds of intent for our coming year. Here we now sit at the top of the wheel before we descend into the 'harvest' time, when we move closer towards the 'underworld' and Winter. It is the perfect time to look at what we are manifesting, and and give great thanks for the fruition of our potential 'crops' (intentions we have planted) during the Spring days.
We will use this time to add fuel to our lives and our intentions. We will give thanks for what we want to come into fullness of our life, and we will use our voices, presence and songs to honor each of us in our full beauty and ripeness. We will be experiencing a sound bath, and focus our circle on honoring our mothers (as Summer represents 'motherhood') , in all their shades of dark and light - as well as how we 'mother' ourselves'.
We will eat, share, sing, create and laugh together, using the 'circle as shaman' as we weave our stories into the wisdom and medicine we need to hear for our own personal life journey.
This circle is open for all women, whether they have journeyed with us before, or are new.
All women over 18 years old are welcome to attend.
Please bring a dish of vegetarian or vegan food to share (and gluten-free if possible). Please dress to be comfy, move, and stay warm as we may be both inside and outside on the night. There will be further information in the confirmation email.
Please ensure that you arrive for us to promptly start at 5.30pm.
