In ancient communities women used to gather in circles to call in the divine feminine as a way of grounding, centering and receiving higher wisdom. A Women's Circle is a sacred space where women can come together to co-create the healed sisterhood, feel supported, be seen, heard, held and honoured. Everything that happens in a circle remains in the circle, which allows women to truly open up, share, and be authentic.

With the sun and new moon in Aquarius towards the end of January, we will be moving into the Chinese New Year of the Wood Snake. Snake is a symbol of wisdom, making Snake year the time to coil up, contemplate and reflect. The wood element symbolises growth, like a plant in springtime. This Wood Snake offers the unique opportunity to shed skins of the past, creatively express what is in the shadows and move forwards, covering a lot of ground, quickly. Snake holds the feminine quality of being very flexible and can adapt easily to change. Snake loves and appreciates beauty. It is a good year to express your unique artistry and multi-faceted creativity.

Our focus for this circle is to embody our inner artist. We will seek inspiration from our bodies to help remind ourselves that when we are fully present, all our needs and desires are met.

Join us for an afternoon of connection and nourishment. We will co-create a sacred space for relaxation, sharing, breath work, yoga, creativity, somatic movement and yoga nidra. Together we will sow seeds of love into our hearts as a way of setting our intention for the year ahead. Love is the best medicine. We are motivated by love, intimidated by it, inspired by it, controlled by it, healed by it and destroyed by it. Each of life's challenges is a lesson in some aspect of love. In our Women's Circles we learn to harness love and embody it. In that way we become whole and complete and stay connected to Source. True love is Divine Power. Please bring a notebook and pens/ coloured pencils, warm layers, a flask of tea or bottle of water.
