This circle is for you if . . .

→ you’d appreciate some loving witness and affirmation, in the warmth of this circle connection

→ you’d like some gentle self-accountability for an upcoming creative project

→ you want to punctuate your month with moments of mindfulness, where you deliberately reflect on your New Moon intention and how it’s shaping up (or not!)

→ you have a Sun, Moon, Ascendant or Ascendant Ruler in Leo (or opposite in Aquarius) and you want to be listening to the soulful opportunities of this cycle more consciously than usual (these are not pre-requisites, though!)

“I've never been a part of a women's circle before but I am thoroughly enjoying this. I look forward to hearing what everyone has experienced through the week and feel grateful to share my little bit. I'm amazed at how nourishing the hour is... like super amazed actually!”

“Whatever inspires you is an aspect of yourself.  Be precise about what you admire in someone and find that part in yourself.  If you have the aspiration to be something, it’s because you have the potential to manifest what you are seeing.” 
– Debbie Ford

Leo

Astrology is a mytho-poetic language for understanding the human experience.  It’s like a natural liturgical calendar, asking us to reflect on various aspects of our human experience. 

Call it coaching from the Cosmos!

The Moon cycles through the 12 zodiacal signs each year, and on 18/19 August we have a New Moon in the fiery sign of Leo.

Leo represents our confidence and charisma, our human need to be appreciated by others, and our delight in our creative expression.

Over the course of four circles, we’ll explore and refer back to our ‘New Moon in Leo’ intentions, which we set at the beginning of the lunar month.  We will listen for how this fiery, stabilising (fixed) energy is expressed in our lived experience.

Think of a performer, exploring the very edges of creativity and virtuosity, enlivening us all with their courage.  

Think of a child, who doesn’t need anyone to teach them how to play, deeply immersed in the present moment. 

Think of a queen, sovereign to her very core, no word of an apology on her lips.

This is Leo.

Sun

The Sun is the luminary that ‘rules’ Leo.

The Sun represents our shining essence, our most natural, empowered Self.

The Sun is a symbol for our life force, identity, fire, passion and self-expression.  

From this native place, we radiate our truth, our joy, our light.

With the Sun in Leo this month, we receive a burst of warmth and energy.

What new expressions of movement, joy and delight might be possible this month?

We’d love to have you in circle! Only 9 places all up!

What happens?

Here’s a little glimpse of what these online circles look like!

We gather via Zoom, with video on, usually, cos the feedback of each other’s faces and bodies is really important.  

That said, you are welcome to listen while you go for a walk, or while you lie in bed!  You can make it work for you.

We ground and centre ourselves at the beginning, and hear a bit of a Cosmic Weather Report, ie. what’s the Moon up to, and what does that mean for us, etc.

Then we take it in turns to speak, usually about 5-7 mins or so. 

The questions we are reflecting on are sent out beforehand each week, for those who appreciate a bit of digestion time.

You can always pass, if it’s your turn to share, but it’s not feeling right.  We’ll come back to you at the end, and you’d still prefer not to speak, that’s fine, we appreciate your presence!

We check in regarding our New Moon intentions, each time.  A New Moon intention is pretty much what it sounds like: a prayer or desire that we’d like to embody or achieve this month, usually written down, so that we can refer back to it.

It’s amazing what a potent form of self- accountability this is, just lovingly witnessing our process.

We build some beautiful connection over the course of four weeks!  And then you are welcome to sign up again for the next month’s circle, or not…

Meet your guide

Hi, I’m Grace!

I’m a teacher, star-gazer and women’s circle facilitator living in Manitoba, Canada, and I’m obsessed with cycles and patterns and how they can help us create grounded, sustainable lives!

A huge part of my journey has involved sitting in circle with other women.  Many different women, many kinds of circle.

These containers of space and time were a ‘womb‘ in which for me to heal, grow and rebirth myself, multiple times over!

I believe deeply in the transformative power of solidarity.  We don’t need someone else to tell us the ‘answers’ or ‘fix’ our problems.  But we do need to know we’re not alone.

In these circles, we companion each other into deeper self-awareness, self-worth and authenticity!

"Grace, thanks, as always, for holding such a gentle, open-hearted space."

"Our last circle became one of the most interesting learning experiences about myself that I've had in circle!!"

FAQs

That’s okay, the point of committing is so we can create connection and intimacy, but it needs to fit in with your life as well!

So, feel free to book in for this circle, if you’re feeling the call, and just let me know which day you’ll be absent.  

I get it, astrology is like a language, and not everyone wants to speak French!  No astro knowledge is required for participation in this circle, and the emphasis will be on our lived experience, and the practical, visible journey of the Moon through her phases, rather than esoteric astro knowlege.

I’ll be posting a few more one-off circles soon, join my mailing list to stay in the loop!  Scroll down a wee bit further for the sign-up form…

This circle is by donation, so there are no refunds.  That said, no one has ever asked for one!

Yes, in some ways it is unnatural.  But, for all that we might not know each other, we share many experiences in common, and there’s a transpersonal power in hearing ourselves in the mirror of each other. 

We also make time to connect with ourselves, render the space sacred, and agree to confidentiality, as ways to make the circle feel safer.
