A community of deepening in the feminine which joins each beginning of a new lunar cycle.
A journey into ourselves!
"... While the sun illuminates the day for work and for the activity of daily life, the moon illuminates a different aspect of human experience - the inner life, the imagination, the fluid and diffuse domains of the unconscious ..." - Lara Owen

"... women have also learned that the deep healing comes from their connection with the feminine Self, or the Goddess... women have discovered that they can catch glimpses of this feminine Self mirrored in the eyes of other women..." - Barbara Black Koltuv in Weaving Woman
" The moon is an analogy to woman. It is diferent each night and has a regular, though mysterious, cycle...By becoming counscious of the inner moon or menstrual cycle we can partake of the goddess within and begin to know ourselves. By consciously submitting to the inner necessity of our instinctual life, we become most individual, most true to ourselves..." - Barbara Black Koltuv in Weaving Woman
“ … woman´s power comes automatically by virtue our femaleness, our natural and personal acquaintance with blood - menstrual blood. There is no need for woman to fear blood. We understand its worth. Blood is life. This life blood is also the menstrual blood; holy and feminine and real. When the life blood releases monthly from the vagina, we transcend linear time and pass into a heightened state of awareness; a deep connection with cycles, and the relationship we have to them… ” in Sister Moon Lodge, the Power & Mystery of Menstruation
NOTES FOR WOMEN IN CIRCLE WITH THE MOON
"It is important to prepare for the circle. It is important to think in advance what we would like to bring to share because each sharing is a sacred act and a possibility to bring clarity, revelations and awareness to those who share and those who listen. While at the same time being open to what might want to be to be shared without Having been planned.
Sharing in a safe, intimate and deep space is a rare opportunity in these days.
A container in a circle that listens completely and does not opine, is magic.
This makes possible embracing the totality of who we are or what we express at that moment without judgment. The possibility of sharing the shadow and light, the wonderful and the horrible, the pain and the love, the joy and the sadness, the life and the death.
And listening to the other's experience, the authentic expression of the other is a most precious gift. Paths open up, possibilities show up, illusions are undone and inevitably we approach as human beings that we are.
Each new lunar cycle is an opportunity for individual learning and that taken into the circle contributes actively to the whole. Each new cycle brings lessons, learnings, awareness that it is up to each one to take and take to the next cycle and to the circle.
And so from cycle to cycle, from circle to circle, we grow and evolve, individually and collectively, creating bonds and community.

“There are many things to say about your work, which is wonderful. I will focus on what I feel when I'm "working" with you. I am a very detached person from today's world, I often live with the feeling that no one else understands what I feel, my yearnings to want to learn and follow Old Paths ... I feel that call since I was a child and I don't know how to express myself and what I really need to express. I don't have time, I live in a hurry, like any mortal, anyway ... I was almost 40 years old when I met you, I found UIBI and I started participating in Women's Circles. Well, I feel that the space you create in each moment that we meet is unique and aims to serve the purpose of each of us individually and at the same time for a Common Good. When I am with you (even outside the Circle), I know that there is time, that there are forms of expression, that I must dance, write, yes! It's correct! It's not just my daydreams! The way you prepare for meetings comes to me in a way that is summed up in a phrase that you yourself said one of the times: "You don't need to do anything, everything is OK!" I don't know anyone who can tell me this, and I need to hear it, I think THE WORLD needs to hear it. You transform the space where we are in a place where I finally feel included, where I can even afford to feel important, useful, part of creation. The REAL notion of feminine power that I carry with me - that all women carry - becomes palpable, and that makes me a better person. Your work is very important to me, it helps me to grow, to evolve spiritually, to look inward to have time ... it helps me to be what I am, without masks, without mandatory compliance with protocols and without fear. I know I'm a little better now :) Thanks will never be enough ... Continue to express what you have inside, because when I look at you, I see that there is hope and I forget for a moment the stinginess that characterizes Humanity. Thank you for making this invitation to me everything written here is very true and very little. A huge hug! ” - Célia M.
