Virgo New Moon SisterCircle: Practicing Sacred Self-Centeredness

Join us as we gather in the dark of the Moon to locate, heal and re-claim the Divine Feminine in ourselves and in our society. When we come together under the New Moon, we celebrate our connection to the lunar cycles, to the earth and to each other, through movement, song, personal sharing and magical play.

Dear CircleSisters –
I’ve been facilitating women’s Moon Circles for a looong time (25 years this Fall!) and there are some themes that I repeat from year to year because they resonate so deeply – practicing SELF-CARE is one of them. And embracing that healthy, earth-y energy on the Virgo New Moon feels particularly powerful in these precarious times.

When was the last time you did something really DELICIOUS just for you and didn't feel an ounce of guilt? Hopefully, it was very recently, but the sad truth is that women especially are socialized to take care of everyone else first… in fact we're labeled "selfish" if we don't. The reality, though, is that if we don't create space for our own self-care, we won't be whole enough to take care of all those we love or who depend on us.

So, while I believe getting yourself to any Women’s Circle (including virtual ones!) is an act of supreme self-care, this month we’ll spend some extra time reflecting on, then reveling in, this radical idea of what I call “Sacred SELF-Centeredness” – come join us!

***Since we won’t be in person with a communal altar, you might want to create your own at home, with symbols of the four elements (fire, water, air and earth), At the very least, be sure to bring a symbol of your favorite self-care practice (or what you aspire to) and your favorite hand cream. You could also dress in clothes and colors that nurture your body and soul.😊 ***

With nurturing self care-full blessings,
Deborah
