European Tour 2020 visit SacredWombCraft.com

In the last 30 years I have studied and practiced the ancient arts of healing, shamanic ceremonies, dance, touch and sacred sexuality, as I accompanied hundreds of women though the birth of their babies or the birth of a new self in my Loving The Mother Workshops. My studies and life dedication culminated in my book Conversations With The Womb, where I wanted to extend this passion I have for the feminine, to all women from all walks of life, at any time in their path. That's when I zeroed in on 4 feminine archetypes and created this workshop. 
 
On this path you will meet:
The Maiden she will remind you of the fairy tales that have colored your development, as you dip your toes into your ancestral history to harness the power of your lineage. Learn the rituals of first blood you can teach and celebrate with your daughters and granddaughter. For centuries women celebrated the entrance into the miracle of our blood, these rituals have been forgotten and have lessened our relationship with our body and its magic.
 
The Witch/ Femme Fatal who will show you your innate magic and the path to freedom around your sexuality. You will learn the ritual of the first sexual encounter (teach this ritual to your son's and daughter help them see the sacredness of intimacy. Use it to rediscover the heat and passion with your partner,) as well as sexuality after childbearing and menopause.  
 
The Mother/Healer who will help you merge with the whole universe, and heal or harness your birthing experience. Here you will discover your healing powers that through the cultivation of your intuition not only can help you heal yourself, but can help you heal your family and in a sense the entire world with a mother’s desire for peace and harmony and prosperity for all.
 
The Crone who will help you discover the Secrets of the Ages, where the maiden, the witch and the mother come back transformed full of energy, magic, sexuality, and wisdom. I, the crone will help you prepare spiritually and physically for this passage.  
 
This course is designed for women of all ages who want to explore their feminine cycles and their inner and outer beauty. ​​

2. Witch - Once we encounter the blood of our menses we switch to the witch’s phase of our life. While the maiden is innocent and virtuous, the femme fatale is sexy, curious, resourceful and astute.  Our magic flourishes through attraction, purpose, sexuality, the discovery of our feminine powers. Our womb communicates with us monthly, beckoning for relation. Oneness with Godess, oneness of human relation, oneness of force, oneness of time, oneness of purpose. The witch accompanies us through out our lives, from first blood to motherhood, from postpartum to menopause, she encourages us to discover and harness our irresistible power of the YONI.  By bringing cerimonies to our sexuality we bring consciousness to our decisions and we teach our daughters conscious sexual pleasure.
