The second full moon ceremony of 2012 proved to be a beautiful adventure into the world of Aphrodite, Goddess of Beauty and Sensuality. I could feel the energy shift immediately after calling in the 7 directions and I knew I was in for a treat. Kudos to Annette for blowing the conch with gusto for the very first time.
The expanding circle enjoyed a scene from the movie The Mists of Avalon showing how Morgane, sister of King Arthur, gathered her divine feminine powers growing up in the underground city of ancient Avalon. It left us wanting to get together soon to see the movie in its entirety, and made us entertain the possibility of acquiring and using more of our own feminine mystique.
Under the winter moon, we made up epithets and spirit nick names for each other and collected them in an envelope like they were secret valentines. Everyone delighted in their sister-given names and I am sure some of them will stick.
The theme for the circle speak was how do we experience our own sensuality and circle sisters shared their most intimate ways to get in touch with their inner Aphrodite.
A baggie of feminine gifts from Lisa Forward were much appreciated and designed to help us decorate ourselves as Goddess and to remember to honor our gift of femininity and feminine intuition.
After closing the circle, sisters were invited to indulge in some beautification with hair bling and henna tattoos.
Amy Sullivan announced another Hands on Healing Circle next wednesday Feb. 15th to experience and play with your divine feminine powers for healing and rejuvenation.
Gratitude to Tammy, our fearless goddess leader, for making the ceremony flow like a lotus flower at midnight… under the full moon.
