New Moon Sharing Circle

This November 2024, the New Moon falls on November 1st...

Samhain, the ancient pagan New Year festival, was celebrated from dusk on October 31st to dusk on November 1st. This was the time when families would celebrate those who had crossed over to the other side. So, in this very special themed Circle, we'll be taking time out to talk about our loved ones who have left us;discussing the impact they had on our lives, and allowing their names to live on through our remembrance.

Join us to celebrate those you have lost, and to allow them to be seen, though you, once more on this very special night.

This Moon Circle is a sacred gathering of Women, which allows us space to connect, share and have others bear witness to where we are at in our journey.

Circle is a safe space to experience and embrace the nurturing energy of the feminine that resides within us. It is a place to give and receive love, and to share wisdom & teachings through our own stories.

Society often demands that we limit talking about our experience - especially around certain taboo subjects - however, in Circle, we are safe to talk about all the messiness & chaos that life often delivers to us, and to show support, validation, empathy and compassion to others who are in the midst of their own experience.

Circle is not just about sharing the hard things in life. It is also about creating a vitally needed connection that we so often lack into today's digital age. It's about Women coming back together to create powerful networks where we support one another, and the ripples we create will spread out from our little pond to the rest of the world.

When Women gather in Circle we connect with our unique biological ability: the power of Creation. We are drawn to this because deep in our soul we know that it feels so right to be within a community of other women.

If you find yourself longing for Connection, Community and Authenticity, then come along and connect with the other beautiful women in this safe space.

What to Expect?
If you've not been to a Circle before you may be wondering what to expect so briefly, the evening will flow as follows:

I'll welcome everyone in, open up the meeting, allowing us a few minutes for us all to get connected.

Then we will take turns to speak in the group, going round in a circle, whilst everyone else listens, without interruption... During this part of the evening, we will not have any comments or discussion, but instead, will stay present and bear witness for others.

This is a safe space and so what is said within Circle must remain within Circle - in order to create a space where we all feel able to share, we must feel safe with each other. No topic is off the table and we are all here to listen and support, without judgement and with open hearts.

What can you talk about? You might talk about a personal experience, recent or past, or a topic that is really close to your heart or something that just lights you up. We're here for all of what life brings, so whether you're sharing your joy or needing others to witness your sadness, it's all good. Equally, if you just want to listen, then there is no obligation to share at all. Do what feels right for you in the moment.

Once we have taken turns to share, depending upon the amount of time left, there will be an opportunity for discussion in a more informal way.

At the end of the session I will formally close the Circle.

ABOUT OUR COMMUNITY

Wild Women, Witches and She Wolves are all welcome at our Women-only Circles. This is a safe space for discussion, sharing & meeting new souls. These are positive, uplifting Circles where we hold space for each other.

If you find yourself in a new phase of your life or you feel like you are perhaps not fitting in with what's been expected of you, then it's wonderful to be able to connect with some new, like-minded souls to discuss your journey; to learn new things and simply to make some wonderful new connections.

This Circle is about discussion, learning, sharing and making new friends. Above all, this is about having a space to truly be yourself, have fun and hang out with like-minded people in an environment where nothing you say will come across as 'odd'!

If you feel like you are yet to find yourself or 'your people' then this may be just the place for you.

I look forward to Welcoming you,

Holly x
