Welcoming Men Into Women’s Circles
The work of today is balance. Balance between genders and races. I have healed sitting in Circle over the years. I can now sit in a Women’s Circle and feel loved, seen, valued, appreciated and cherished in front of the women I circle with. Their husbands, lovers and partners encourage them to attend Circle as […]
The Messy Bits of Community: Why Don’t You Have a Local Women’s Circle?
It amazes me time and time again how many women doing this work of the Goddess do not meet regularly in a local Circle. I got it. All the reasons: burn out, personality conflicts, non-commitment, finding members and more. I cannot tell you the amount of times I have personally had to pick my ego […]
Attendance at A Women’s Circle
The Circle calls when the Circle calls. I’ve hosted Women’s Circles for seven years now, and I’ve learned a few things. I love doing this. It is my passion. But I’ve also seen many women burn out, because they give too much to it and do not receive in kind. Maybe the first three or […]
Womanfest Destiny: Sacred Circle Guidelines

Bowl of Saki, December 12, by Hazrat Inayat Khan Commentary by Hazrat Inayat Khan: According to metaphysics fear is caused by the lack of light. Therefore the more light there is in the heart the more fearless the heart becomes. … When a […]
Finding Your Sisters in a Women’s Circle Part IV
I went back ‘home’ to Illinois and met in Circle there with my Sisters. I find it so ironic that after seven years of the ups and downs of hosting a Circle, it really feels like the perfect Circle now that I have moved ten hours south to Alabama. Even that word ‘Sisters’ used to […]
