My name is Tamara Trejo. I am an artist, circle leader, and lifelong student of the divine feminine. I live in Half Moon Bay, California, where I am happily married, the mother of two sons, and a grandmother. From this grounded life, I make art and gather women in sacred, creative circles.
For over twenty years, I have been guiding women in rituals of creativity, reflection, and remembrance. My work is rooted in a deep belief that creativity is a gateway to spirituality—a living language through which we come to know ourselves, our ancestors, and the unseen currents that shape our lives.
Moon Mothers grew from this knowing.
How Moon Mothers Began
After the death of my mother, during the first light of the Vernal Equinox, I stood in a women’s circle at the temple of the Mayan healing goddess Ixchel on Isla Mujeres. As the conch trumpet sounded and the sun rose, I experienced a profound inner awakening—a moment of clarity and remembrance. I knew then that when I returned home, I would gather women in circle to explore personal enlightenment through creativity, ritual, and connection to the divine feminine.
The first Moon Mothers gathering took place in my backyard in October of 2009. It was a Crone ceremony, humble and heartfelt. Since then, the circle has continued to grow—evolving organically as women come together to explore ancient goddess mythology, archetypal wisdom, seasonal cycles, and creative expression.
My authority as a guide does not come from titles or institutions. It comes from decades of lived experience, sustained study of goddess mythology across cultures, and the wisdom of strong mentors who taught me how to hold space with integrity, humility, and care. Most importantly, it comes from listening—deeply—to women, to art, and to the subtle rhythms of the natural world.
Moon Mothers is a place where women are invited to slow down and remember who they are. Through art-making, ritual, and shared reflection, we reconnect with ancestral wisdom carried in our bones and imaginations. We honor the lineage of grandmothers who came before us—women whose knowledge of healing, ceremony, and community was often silenced, yet never lost.
When women gather in circle—especially under the full moon—something ancient stirs. There is a palpable energy of recognition and belonging. In these circles, every woman has a voice. Each is witnessed. Each is invited to embody her own wisdom, creativity, and inner authority.
Our gatherings are not performances or prescriptions. They are living, breathing ceremonies shaped by the season, the moon, and the women present. Together, we honor divine feminine archetypes, explore creative practices, and strengthen our capacity to live with intention, compassion, and courage.
Moon Mothers is both ancient and contemporary. It is rooted in tradition and alive in the present moment. It is a place of reverence, artistry, and quiet transformation.
If you feel drawn here, you are welcome.
I hope one day you will join us in circle.
