Women's Moon Lodge
Event description
- When one talks, all the others listen.
- What’s said in the circle stays in the circle.
- No one is held accountable for what she says, for our truth may change in the future.
- We reserve judgment and comments; the point of sharing is to be witnessed, not given advice.
As much as solitude is vital, your internal change comes to fruition when it’s witnessed by the community. Once the eyes of others reflect who you are becoming, you start believing it. This is how you transform. This is how you get to know yourself profoundly. And this is what the circle enables.
Circle sharing isn’t about asking for advice, discussing life events, or proving your reality to someone else. It’s not humble-bragging about your truth. The primary purpose of the circle is to witness others and be witnessed.
And even though our achievement-driven minds may find it hard to believe, this is powerful enough. Simply allowing the words to be spoken and heard in a safe space is transformative and nourishing. There’s no effort required. It’s simple.
All we need is to create the right setup — a circle — and do our best to speak and listen without judgment.
