Final Urban Shaman Journey Set

Beginning November 2, 2006, the final year-long Urban Shaman Mysteries journey will be for seven women who want to bring spiritual and creative dimensions into their everyday lives. We will meet in monthly circles (6:00-10:00 p.m.; evening to be decided upon by the group), and two weekend retreats at Wildberry at The Sea Ranch. The journey is also a prerequisite to Priestess training beginning in the fall of 2007. If you are interested in participating in this final journey, call Sara at (707) 578-7272, ext. 2, to set up an interview.

About the Mysteries

Imagine a small group of women meeting over a year in search of its own spirituality. Convening both in Santa Rosa and by the ocean at The Sea Ranch, they consider a variety of spiritual practices: Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Christian mysticism, paganism and other earth-based traditions. Each draws from these beliefs those ideas best suited to a personal spiritual practice that will sustain her throughout her life. This is the essence of Women’s Mysteries.



What is Women’s Mysteries? The Basic Journey

We are a small group of like-minded women that meets once a month as well as weekends together in retreat at The Sea Ranch, California. Under my guidance we learn and practice rituals and exercises designed to connect us more deeply with the earth. Together we will partner with natural forces to make our desires and dreams manifest. Think of this as a new kind of adventure for the imagination and creative spirit. 

Our goals as Women’s Mysteries celebrants are to:

celebrate passages from one life-phase to another

trust others who may be different from us

learn we are all teachers

accept and openly share our true selves

see all life as holy and sacred

be ordained as “Priestess of the Mysteries” 

In our time together, we expect to:

develop or enhance our rituals and spiritual practices

learn prayers, chants and songs

form a healing circle, create altars together and walk the labyrinth

share and interpret our dreams in a special technique, dreamspeak

enact myth and story in the Theater of the Imagination

create sacred art and delving tools: dream catchers and pillows, prayer beads, altars, shields of protection and others

study herbs for healing and visioning

spend time in meditation and in visioning alone and together

cook, relax, laugh and deepen our friendship together while creating a safe temenos for individuation
