I welcome you to into a nurturing circle of women gathered to share from the heart in sacred space.This beautiful circle we are going to talk about being a phenomenal woman. You don't have to know me for very long to know how much I love poetry and how inspiring I think Maya Angelou is. So let's start by reading her glorious words:
Phenomenal Woman
BY MAYA ANGELOU
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I say,
It’s in the reach of my arms,
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It’s the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can’t touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can’t see.
I say,
It’s in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
Now you understand
Just why my head’s not bowed.
I don’t shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing,
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It’s in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need for my care.
’Cause I’m a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That’s me.
Oh, that poem!!! Gets me right in the heart every single time. How does her words make you feel? Do you feel like you embody this energy? Do you want to embody this energy? If you do and you aren't, what's stopping you? I know this isn't a simple topic to touch on so I want to use the time this circle to flesh out some of the conditioned beliefs we may have that stop us from stepping into this energy and what external forces may also make it hard to get there, or to sustain it.
Here's to being phenomenal women!
So much love, sisters!

On arrival I offer grounding and clearing with smoke cleansing and when I feel called to, drumming as well. After circle has been opened we will sink into our sacred space through a guided meditation, fully calling ourselves to be present in this space. During this circle there will be an intimate sharing element where the talking stick will be passed around allowing each woman to be held as she shares her truth. In this space we listen with open ears and open hearts, without trying to move or fade the pain of another woman with advice, allowing for release and healing in being truly seen. Our gatherings also include each bringing a plate of food to add to our shared feast at supper. What is shared in our sacred space, stays in our sacred space. Please bring a plate of food, a water bottle, a cushion and a shawl/blanket to make yourself comfortable. There are cushions and small blankets at the venue if you forget though. With an open heart, all women are accepted and maidens from 10 are also invited into this sacred space. Babes in arms are welcome in circle. No refunds are issued.

Women have gathered in sacred space longer than they have not. For many of us though, this has not been a part of our journeys. Sacred Sisterhood is reawakening in the hearts of women all over the world. For thousands of years we have gathered in circle to tell our stories, share our wisdom and pass on the history of our ancestors. I warmly invite you to this sacred space for authentic connection with like-minded sisters, bringing yourself back into your true self, remembering our soul's true purpose and the blessing of true heart kinship.

My name is Angie and I have created Sage Entwined as a way of following my heart and purpose, while giving of myself in service to the women of my community. My vision for Sage Entwined Sacred Journey: Women's Circle is for all the sisters that attend to rise together in harmony and purpose. To create true community through collaboration and sharing. And to be empowered in sharing wisdom and receiving it. The ripples of the magic we create in this sacred and intentional space is felt far in wide in our worlds. We are the change in the world, sisters.If you have any questions please email me at [email protected]. I am looking forward to seeing you at circle. Blessings, Sisters.
❤️
Angie
