You are invited to The Sanctuary at Natures Gate for our New and Full Moon Sacred Circles. Each moon cycle has its unique quality that aids us in following the natural rhythms and cycles of the earth mother. The circle is led by Elandara who welcomes all participants to open their hears as we all in the opening circle. As we gather around the Sacred Fire, we focus our attention on the particular qualities of each moon cycle with deep listening. We follow a sacred Native American tradition of passing the talking stick to listen to our inner truth that wants to be shared in the moment from the quiet deep space in our sacred heart. We respect the voices of those in the circle as we listen creating an open space to be heard. There is no cross talk or discussion about "right and wrong". In the sharing, we are all nourished and uplifted.
Elandara leads a drum journey that is guided by Great Spirit and is informed by the consciousness of the participants in the circle. This is a magic time to allow guidance to come through for balance, inspiration and growth. You are invited to bring a drum, a rattle or sacred object for the altar and to play with us in ceremony. This is a very magical time for Great Spirit to guide our way. We weave our truth into the web of life as we honor the deep listening and sharing that occurs in these Sacred Circle Gatherings.
During the warm months, our gatherings are held outside. Our circles move indoors around the wood stove when it gets colder.
Invitations to join in these sacred circles are sent out for each of the individual gatherings. Contact Elandara to be added to the invite list if you are not already on it.
Guests are welcome but please have them register so we can set up the circle for those who RSVP.
A requested donation of $20 helps support the ongoing activities at Nature's Gate. (pay "at the door", via Venmo, or by check made payable to "Elandara Anderson")
