In Her Name Circles

In Her Name Circles provide a safe community for women who seek a greater understanding of the Divine as Feminine. Through compassionate listening and sharing we seek to expand caring relationships. Through ritual we seek to deepen our spiritual connection. We gather to honor and celebrate the Divine Feminine, both in the form of Her many manifestations in global history and cultures, as well as to honor the Divine Feminine within each one of us. Together we create a communal safe haven that honors feminine values, feminine ways of being in the world, and feminine ways of knowing that are more subjective and intuitive. In Circle we learn to honor our feelings, our need for relationships, and our need to share stories and to be heard with a compassionate ear. Our purpose is to gather to reclaim the Divine Feminine both within and without.
