The CALL: WE GATHER THE WOMEN; the drummers, the dancers, 
the singers, the healers, the priestesses, the dreamers, 
the weavers, the mystical and wise ones. We call the young 
ones, the mothers, the seekers, the elders, the women who 
know that their power, their visions and essence are needed 
in all forms of expression for the balance of life now. 
This women's gathering is a deep exploration of our 
visions, voice, magic, intentions, and our place here on 
the planet sharing stories and inspiration that will help 
guide and sustain us during these times. Facilitated in a 
spontaneous yet organized "be-in-the-moment way" to meet 
our many soul hungers, we will share a rich array of our 
gifts collectively. 
 
We share in common our need to rest, eat, dance, talk, 
council, heal, and be in ceremony together. 
 
We share the need to be on the earth, outside, rooted and 
connected to the sacred land. 
 
We hunger for dreams, insights, validation, deep meaningful 
interactions and inspiration to live our lives ever more 
powerfully in service to life. 
 
In the safety of one another's company we shed our old skin 
anew and share in the natural transformation that comes 
from being together. 
 
We need and hunger for safe places to cry, laugh, scream, 
be seen and touch our own wild and ecstatic natures (your 
birthright). 
 
Under the moon we howl and build a community of women, 
called to this vision to meet face to face as daughters of 
this beautiful Mother Earth. 
 
Other places to gather in ceremony on the land are the 
Stone People's Lodge, the Firecircle and the Medicine 
Circle. We will designate the Maiden's Grove, the Crone's 
Hut and the Mother's Milk Stream. Also on the land is a 
4000 year old ceremonial site from a matriarchal tribe. 
Earthlands is off the grid and is an ecological community. 
 
 
 
 
 
The shadow sides of our lives when we do not meet our 
hungers: 
Not being connected to the earth, our body and our joy. 
Not breathing, and feeling afraid, sad or stuck in despair. 
Not accepting our passion or rage as a tool for action and 
boundary setting. 
Not honoring our moontime, our wombs and our grief. 
Not honoring our passages of life. Feeling very hungry for 
something difficult to name. Not following our intuitions 
and dreams. 
 
Sisters, whether you come or not, please take precious care 
of your deep soul needs. You are worth it.
