The Moon Lodge
Calling All Sisters!
Welcome to
Join us for one or all of these special all-women evenings. Teach, learn, open your heart, heal, share, empower, strengthen, transform amongst a beautiful and supportive sacred community of sisters. Celebrate the courageous and radiant YOU in all ways!
​
A refreshed version of our longstanding Red Tent, our Moon Lodge gathering at the Goddess Temple is a dedicated time for women of all ages to step out of a kind of world that keeps us occupied. Inside the peaceful white of the Moon Lodge, underneath the Busy, we give ourselves time to remember who we are at our very core. Within the soft dreams of the billowing White, we honor our own unique journeys of womanhood. It is a time, too, to honor life's sacred transitions, whether it be a daughter stepping into womanhood with her first moon-flow, a marriage, pregnancy, birth, divorce, menopause, eldership, or all of the miraculous moments of a woman's life that we so often share. Like the moon, we mirror for each other the light that we are, and the love that weaves us all together.
​
With its roots in the indigenous people of the Americas, the Moon Lodge is also a place where women co-create a shared vision of the world in which they wish to live. In the quiet, we can speak to Mother Earth and receive her guidance for how to nurture and support our planet in this time of need. It is a place for us as women to come alive, to renew, of finding the peace that is born in Sisterhood and from simply Being.
​
Bring a mug for tea, a journal, a book, your knitting, a sketchbook, or any quiet activity that's calling to you...or just come as the beautiful Sister that you are!

Women have been gathering for wisdom and support since the dawn of time. The Red Tent Temple Movement is the name of a women’s circle inspired by Anita Diamante’s best-selling novel and begun by ALisa Starkweather. It has since grown into a worldwide grassroots movement, expanding in more towns throughout the globe each year. ALisa writes:

The Red Tent Temple is a day out of the month…to step out of a kind of world that keeps us occupied. Inside the Red Tent Temples, we give ourselves time to remember who we are at our very core, honoring that to do that remembering we must turn from our identities and roles towards the innermost temple of our own hearts. Come into the Red Tent Temple and stop for a breath and be in your body. In the quiet and sometimes celebratory company of wonderful women, feel. In what you feel, there is much that is waiting for you.

It is time. The women are ready to co-create a vision in the societies we live in and make a place among us where women are honored by honoring our own unique journeys of womanhood. A place for our elders and our young women. A place for us to come alive. Who knows where it will lead us? Women who are part of this important grassroots movement may never know what an important role they will play by bringing this into our culture at large. Now we are learning how. Join us in a revolutionary act. It is more than a woman’s circle. It is a deep learning process of unlearning the busy and finding the moment. <3
