Manifesting Our Dreams
in the light of midsummer
"Start with women's circles
each one like a pebble thrown in a pond.
The effect of women in them,
and the effect women in them have,
send out concentric rings of influence."
Jean Shinoda Bolen, The Millionth Circle.
One of the most important thing women can do for each other is to "hear each other into speech" - to be the compassionate witness to each other's stories. This is sacred work, because “Women united in spiritual circles will awaken the wisdom in each other’s spirit." (Shikoba)
This day-long retreat is an invitation to join together and honor women’s wisdom, and the spiritual fire that is within each one of us, and awaken and honor our individual and collective wisdom! The world needs what we have to offer. Join this circle of women in sacred space and be part of something special!
A part of our exploration during this workshop retreat will be to look at how things that seem ordinary can become extraordinary when the light of awareness is shed on them, and how this can help us realize our dreams!
