The Empress Circle
The Empress Circle
a place to practice and retain women's safety, sovereignty, creativity and love
In these unprecedented times of COVID-19, the vulnerable longing AND deepest fear I hear from the women I work with is...
- will I forget all I've learned in this time?
- will I jump in to old patterns and ways of interacting too quickly?
- will I honor the slower, more conscious pace I've come to enjoy?
- will I loose my sense of self to the outer world, and acquiesce to over-responsibility and other's demands?
- will I trust what my body has been guiding me to?
- will I make time to stay intimate with the earth and all life?
- will I keep listening and developing my inner wisdom and intuition?
- will I create what Creation is calling me to?
- will I remember that I am a Daughter of Love - without opposition?
The Call of These Times...

In listening to the call of these times within my own soul and body, I am coming forth now to offer The Empress Circle.
An inner circle for women, and those who identify as female, who have prior worked with me. (*or been introduced to my Feminine SoulBody Wisdom)
This inner circle is offered as a holy human place to practice, fortify, surrender to and retain our Feminine creativity, sovereignty, power, wisdom and love. In a sustainable, mutually-nourishing way. Through these rapidly transitioning and unknown times.
Because a new world is rising up. Through us.
And women are being drawn from all regions, lands and traditions,
to bring this through our hearts and bodies.
Through our visions. Memories. Ancient wisdom. And modern power.
Through our stories, heartache, knowing, intuition, discernment and collaboration with grace.
As Daughters of Love, without an opposite.
Here we lean in. And allow ourselves to be completely loved and restored.
Tuning into our deepening experiences. Distilling and expanding into how we each embody and live from our vulnerable human presence.
Choosing in each moment, to be true to our inner divine authority. While celebrating how we are organically created. Continuously flowing. From a very personal and tender connection to love. That surpasses all understanding.

What Our Inner Circle Includes...
This inner circle is designed to help fortify, support and make real, a rhythmic place for soul connection and commitment to self and all life, within a safe-guarded container of Sisterhood healing, discovery and collaboration.
We Will Have...
|
- a sustained and holy space for ongoing connection and community amongst participants. This space will be a container for deep presence, sharing and vulnerability to hold and offer your hearts, journeys, challenges and growth edges into the container of Sisterhood healing. There is NOTHING like being witnessed in your raw truth and trembling becoming... BEING who you are, and allowing yourself to be terrified of BECOMING that woman! This is a restorative power like none other that brings about sustained growth and soulful actualization. This container is a forum to be honest and sincere with what it will take for each of us to keep facing and making the next step into our soul-sensitive, tender human lives. Here we practice being present for ourselves and each other. I'll gently tend and safeguard this forum, though its content and connection will be lovingly in each woman's hands for what you choose to share and how you show up. *Note, the focus of this experience is on the container and the power of each other, together, in Sisterhood. This is not a place to receive in-depth private support from me. This connection will be held through a private page on my website or through a social media platform (i.e. Facebook).
- an actively tended sacred ground through ritual, prayer and vulnerable sharing from my path through soulbody intimacy. This will be offered verbally and non-verbally to support and role model how I'm making an ongoing rhythmic return to my organic soul a lived and personal reality. In revealing my human example, I openly invite each of your actualized and empowered passages to inspire us through the variance, versatility and value of living from this intimate ground within. We bring forth a kind and caring world by being sincere about what it takes to move deeply from our vulnerable grace and soul stature as loving human beings. This will be shared quietly and internally. And verbally and outwardly. Through poems, passages, love notes, silence, meditation, prayer and ongoing tending via earth-source-soul communion that I do in my daily world.

- first to receive word and invitation into my offerings. This inner circle is being created as my first sphere of intimate connection within community. You all are who I'll turn to when sharing about what I've created! And you'll be the first to be invited to come along. You'll probably also witness my mistakes, frailties, frustrations and intimate discoveries with creation from traversing these inner planes with me. Having this kind of 'inner circle' is a way to establish a foundation of sustaining community, and to savor the joys of being committed to a group that is mutually committing to this inner world of our lives together.
- inner circle discounts on private mentorship, events and resources that I create. You'll receive discounts (of various amounts based on the offering/creation) for the work that I share. I deeply honor those who stand beside me upon the journey. I'm the kind of gal who goes to the ends of the earth for her sisters. And thus I feel really blessed to share discounts on opportunities so we can continue working together and weaving our soul's discoveries in ever more enduring ways.
- a soulfully engaged and mutually beneficial forum of support with dignified women doing the work of being real and alive. And discovering who we are and what we're capable of, instead of always being told and believing that others know how life is supposed to be and work for us. In this forum we take loving clear responsibility for how our sovereign soul and intimate relationship with creation informs us, and how we grow, what we nurture, and are fed by and value as a result of this. This is where we make the ongoing choice to tend what we're ACTUALLY interested and joyous in offering to life! And then going for it, with the loving devotion and support of our Sisters as witness.
- an ongoing, dynamic and collaborative playground into what it means to live from our Feminine Soul in our current global conditions. This is where we vulnerably expose and surrender into our own intimate relationship with our creative source. As we each and together birth a kind and compassionate world for all. What this means is... things WILL BE created and formed from within this powerful container. Things for you personally, within your body, mind and heart. And things for us together, within the collective body, mind and heart. And we'll each offer this to the world in our own unique style and way. This is the reality when we say YES! to fully being alive and revealing our most vulnerable existence to others, who are doing it, right alongside us. Each in her own viable and beautiful way. This is the way of the Empress. In collaboration with the sacred order of life.
Thank YOU Sisters!
The Journey of the Empress...

The Empress is an ancient archetype, found in the Tarot deck and known throughout history in many Asian cultures.
But the Empress that's beckoning me... who I've been listening to here, is one that began to speak and reveal inside my body. At the pinnacle of my perimenopausal and mid-life journey. Which is a time when a woman's system and life reorganizes itself, re-absorbing and redefining all she has put out in to the world, to replenish and rebirth her own system.
In ancient Chinese Medicine each organ is connected to a symbolic 'character' with qualities that honor its purpose and function. The Empress is the guardian of the heart, which is considered a Yin (feminine) organ. And when functioning optimally, the Empress is a kind benevolent leader of the entire bodily system. All other organs are designed to support and protect the functioning of the heart. Thus the Empress is the central figure within our highly refined and purposeful systems, to which all things organize and orchestrate around. Tending to her well-being and care, and honoring how all other organs are naturally and inherently designed to respect and keep her and the whole system thriving, is key to this way of living and loving. In Chinese medicine, the heart is the center of perception itself, and thus our self-awareness. It is where our consciousness takes root. And, in essence, is where the soul can find an entry into our deepest world to make rejuvenating residence within us. This lends to a greater understanding of the significance of The Empress at the Heart of all Life.
During an intensive healing time over this past year, I began to hear the deeper throes of the Empress' call, speaking to me about the body's sacred order as microcosm of the thriving order of the planet. I began to hear and see the Empress revealing to and through me, a more aligned "order" for my system to coalesce around in support and healthy protection of. For my heart - the center of all life - to thrive within. The Empress invited me into greater allowance (something that literally terrified my feisty Aries nature!). An allowance of the sacred order of the cosmos, within my body, in protection and restoration of my deepest fulfillment for all of life. Through this process, she began to reveal how to honor this within my everyday life.
In the natural world, there is intricate organic order at play everywhere. As we notice this around us, it emulates and magnifies the sacred order of our own bodies, and the potential we have to relate to each other and all life through a 'common purpose'. Not one that the mind can understand. Yet one that the inner organizing system of our bodies and souls longs to get on board with!
Through my years of gardening and urban farming, I've witnessed various species working towards and supporting this 'one purpose.' One of the most visceral examples was when I'd sit and commune with the bees. It was an embodied experience of everyone 'protecting and serving the queen at center.' Though it was not actually about the queen, as a figure of ego-filled high and mighty purpose. It was about what she was devoted to... a harmonic order within her system that she honored and emanated. Through a practical, respectful understanding and instinctual wisdom for how to keep the hive and everyone individually thriving. This is the legend of the Empress. Calling us here today. Tenderly beckoning allowance of the sacred order of our own being. Into our lives.
The Empress is teaching us how to allow our systems to coalesce around the heart of ourselves for the wellbeing of all. The Empress is inviting us to truly devote ourselves to the thriving of our heart for the thriving of the world.
Through the Empress Circle, I'll be sharing and building upon this inner initiation. As we each come to experience the inherent design of ourselves through our primal agreements. As the sacred heART of life.
This inner circle has grown enduring roots through my years of serving women. During this COVID-19 experience, we come together to regenerate and flourish amongst a holy container that is:

- staying present and conscious of our new patterns and potential developments
- honoring the slow, more conscious pace we've come to know
- strengthening our inner sense of self as we move into the outer world
- trusting what our bodies guide us to, through pleasure and sensual delight
- making time to stay intimate with the earth and all life
- continually listening and developing our inner wisdom and intuition
- celebrating that we are the Daughters of Love - without opposition
