March 29th Women's Fire

A special poem from John Roedel as we are in highly volatile time where we can sometimes be swallowed whole without special tending:

dear world-weary empath, you can’t leave Earth yet ~ because I just flipped ahead about a hundred pages in your story and I read that someday you will be the reason someone else doesn’t give up on their life

I’m sorry to spoil the end of your epic tale ~ but someday you will be the one who ignites the blaze in another person’s heart that won’t ever be put out again

don’t complicate the plot of your story ~ you are here to be lamplighter that hands out little bits of your flame to ensure the rest of the world doesn’t exist in darkness

I know you have been scorched so many times~ to love the world is to sometimes be burned at the stake by others who mistake your gift of compassion as a personal weakness

I know it’s not easy to be a bringer of light to those who have become addicted to shadows ~ but we need you to be a gardener of effervescent seeds that you will perhaps never see grow into burning rosebushes that can be seen from space

Oh, my love, don’t give into the calling despair ~ set your life on fire with kindness and watch how many other people come out of their caves to sit by your campfire heart to share their own stories of survival

Oh my love, you are my favorite element~ john roedel (you can follow him for inspiration @FB, IG and johnroedel.com)

What might you experience at the Women's Fires? Here is a beautiful example of one woman's expression of what it was like to attend her first Woman's Fire:

"I have been carrying that magic with me all week… It has helped me stay grounded… And I feel more connected and a newfound sense of love… Thank you so much!🦋"

Come join us as we receive the powerful medicine of sitting in the presence of Sacred Fire and recalibrate with Mother Earth's rhythms and wisdom. Here is where the heaviness and burdens of our lives are lifted. We return home with new courage and strength, and connection to ourselves and the divine natural world around us. I invite you to open to the unlanguagable longing of your heart as it seeks healing and safe harbor in this beautiful circle of women. On this night, we celebrate the indomitable spirit of women and the rise of the Sacred Feminine.

Please reserve your seat so that we can prepare for parking and create a welcoming space for you!

Out of respect for our space and those who gather, we will be "closing the door" at 6 PM. Please allow plenty of time for travel, parking and getting comfortable for our time together. You're also invited to help sweep the hearth, stack firewood and gather kindling. Many hands make light work! Thank you!!

Things to bring:

• Chair
• Flashlight
• A donation to help with costs for firewood, Mailchimp, and hearth supplies. If you can help, in any amount, I would be so grateful: THANK YOU FOR GENEROSITY!!!!

Our Community and Women's Fires are drug-and alcohol-free.

As much as we love our furry friends, our Hearth and events cannot accommodate them. Thank you in advance for your understanding!
