The Forbidden Want April 10 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm
The Motherhole hosts this gathering.
The Motherhole has three realms: Eros, Mother and Crone.
This is an Eros gathering. Eros is not sex.
It’s the charge that lives underneath language.
The pull.
The no.
The yes that arrives before thought.
It’s sensation.
It’s appetite.
It’s the body remembering itself.
Theme of the gathering
Not the socially acceptable desire.
Not the Instagram version.
Not the “healthy” one.
The one you edit out.
The one that embarrasses you.
The one that contradicts your politics.
The one that does not fit your relationship.
The one that doesn’t align with who you think you are.
Every woman has a desire she does not say out loud.
Sometimes it is sexual.
Sometimes it is relational.
Sometimes it is power.
Sometimes it is escape.
This gathering is about meeting that desire without acting on it, suppressing it, or dressing it up.
We are not here to indulge it.
We are here to face it.


What we will do
This is a structured, guided gathering. The focus is articulation.
We create a contained space where you can examine the desire you usually censor.
You will write in response to precise prompts.
You will reflect before speaking but you will not be speaking your thoughts, you’ll be voicing those from another in the group. How? Come and find out! All you need to know is that it works, it’s very liberating and feels extremely safe, we promise!
No one reacts.
No one advises.
No one analyses.
You are not required to justify your wanting.
We work slowly and precisely.
We let the truth exist without consequence.


The focus of the evening
We explore forms of Eros that are rarely named:
• desire that feels socially inconvenient
• desire that disrupts your self-image
• desire that contradicts your commitments
• desire that carries shame
• desire that feels too large
• desire that feels dangerous
This is not about permission.
It is about awareness.
Most women spend enormous energy managing what they want.
This gathering offers a way to look directly at it.
Without performance.
Without panic.
Without action.
Just clarity.


The Motherhole
The Motherhole.
The first gate.
The original opening.
The Motherhole is the place where life arrives, where identity fractures, where something that was once yours becomes a passage for others.
And then, one day, becomes yours again.
The Motherhole gatherings are not events. They are encounters.
Spaces where women come to speak from inside what actually happened, and what is happening now.
Not to be fixed.
Not to be guided.
Not to be improved.
But to be heard.
Each Motherhole gathering follows a shared method.
Not because one method fits all, but because experience needs holding in order to move.
We work with words, bodies, breath, and sound.
Sometimes with silence.
Sometimes with meditation.
Sometimes through writing.
Sometimes through reading and voicing.
Sometimes through movement or stillness.
Not everything happens every time.
But always a shared speaking at the end.
Nothing is forced.
You can speak.
You can stay quiet.
You can pass.
Listening counts.
The structure holds the room so experience can move, without being explained, fixed, or turned into a performance.


The Motherhole has three realms
Eros
The realm of desire.
Of appetite.
Of what still wants you.
Sex. Rage. Hunger. Refusal.
The pull toward life that never went quiet.
Enter Eros if something in you is awake and restless.
Mother
The realm of cost.
Of responsibility.
Of what life required of you.
Birth. Care. Loss of self.
The moment you became a passage.
Enter Mother if your life split in two and never fully rejoined.
Crone
The realm of ownership.
Of what you no longer give away.
No more passage for life.
No more explanation.
Menopause. Authority. Clarity.
The moment you stop bleeding and start leading yourself.
