MOONTIME
An Archetypal Women’s Group
MYTH + ASTROLOGY
4-part Full Moon series starting Dec 4th in Berkeley
with Lydia Violet & Verana Faye
Lydia and Verana will host this archetypal women’s group, where each session we will deepen our understanding of the astrology of the moment, including the aspects to the Moon and archetypal themes they bring with them. Lydia will unpack one myth per session that correlates, archetypally, with the themes present in the sky to help guide our session.
This container is for all who identify as women.
We will also be serving herbal elixirs that correlate to the astrology of the moment! Connecting the stars above us to the herbal earth below, as inspired by the Herbal Astrology divining of Lydia’s comrade Adriana Ayales.
Archetypal worldviews are not meant to lock us into stereotypes, but liberate our potentiality. They help us see avenues of collaboration with the Gods and our lives, creating options and the empowerment to choose. By learning more of the patterns present in the heavens, we can find ourselves reflected in our inner movements, desires, and choices. As women, this power to choose is a political act that comes with both belonging and responsibility. This circle is a meditation on these things, empowered by Myth, Astrology, and Communion.
Come feed the story pot in a circle of women, honoring the moon and each other.
