There's something women's bodies remember that our minds have forgotten.For thousands of years, we gathered around fire. We drummed. We moved. We spoke our truths and witnessed each other speaking theirs. We let our emotions move through us without apology - joy and grief, rage and tenderness, all of it.
This is in our DNA.
And it's medicine we desperately need.
Because modern life has taught us to be small. To stay quiet. To hold our bodies rigid and our expressions polite. To carry things that were never ours to carry. To disconnect from what we feel because feeling isn't convenient or productive or ladylike.
Women are sick because we can't feel. Can't express. Can't take up space.
This circle is different.
This circle follows the turning of the land.
In summer we meet in the morning light, when the woodland is alive and the energy is expansive.
In the darker half of the year we gather just before dusk, as the light fades and the fire becomes our centre.
