newMOON Rosh Hodesh Iyar Gardening the Soul Circle (May)

Shalom,

YOU are invited. All beings that can hold sacred and safe space for others to tap into belonging, are invited. All transwomxn, gender queer and gender non-conforming people, all grandmas, daughters, mamas, aunties,...if YOU are looking to journey in sacred community, then YOU are welcome to this ritual.

Because we all need a fertile, sacred space to glean wisdom and heal, we gather together monthly in the garden for the newMOON, to pause and turn inward. Rooted in ancient Jewish ritual, we gather when it's dark to tap into the fertile void. Learn the monthly themes of the Hebrew calendar while we make herbal bath salt. Come unearth soul medicine and set an intention for the month ahead.

Our newMOON circle is rooted in a lineage that has been gathering for 19 years.

COST: $18-$36 Energy Exchange

*Consider joining our monthly newMOON practice. Even if you miss a month, we will plant your seed for you and can even deliver salts to you.

newMOON Goddess: I will buy a Three-Month, Six-Month, or 12-Month newMOON package to support our circle - at any level. (This gives you three, six or twelve tickets and enables us to continue to share seeds, newMOON essential oils for the month, art supplies, and more food during our newMoon circles.) Your tickets can be used anytime throughout the year.

Work-Exchange: I want in, but cost is a serious concern. (Different people enter this community at different levels. Nobody has ever, or will ever, be turned away for lack of funds. We ask each of us to give back whatever possible, no more and no less.) To that end, I commit to a work trade to come early and stay late to setup/breakdown after the ritual at the event that I attend.

Sending YOU newMOON Blessings! We can't wait to share ritual together,

Dev Brous & Yaelle Shaphir
