Take a moment to pause, close your eyes and imagine...
You arrive at dusk - a sacred time when the veils are thin - and are lovingly welcomed at the gateway to the Holy
Temple by a Priestess adorned in flowing robes, bells on her ankles and a warm smile of greeting.
The sounds of the evening and soft music escaping from behind the Temple doors arouse your senses with wonder, curiosity and delight.
Her presence is love soaked as she gently guides you to remove your shoes so your feet may greet the beloved Earth
beneath you in a lingering embrace. Feeling Mother Gaia under you - receiving you wholeheartedly - allows for an unraveling to
begin deep in your bones and you intuitively exhale with a sigh of deep pleasure and contentment.
You are invited to close your eyes for a few moments and you feel your whole being soften even more as the Priestess prepares an intoxicating concoction of frankincense and herbs that immediately take you to another time and place. A memory stirs from deep within...
She then uses the herbs and smoke to cleanse your body, mind and spirit, and as you allow yourself to let go into the experience you feel layers of holding simply start to melt away. You are aware that time stands still and you are moving out of the ordinary and into the Sacred.
When complete she whispers "Welcome Beloved Sister' and indicates it is time for you to enter the Temple.
As you enter the Temple, the rich aroma of Rose, the soft light of candles, enticing music and a beautiful central altar
overflowing with flowers, crystals, feathers and statues devoted to the Goddess activates something deep in your heart.
The Temple keeper guides you to your seat in the circle and an evening of breathtaking beauty unfolds before you...
You dance, sing, pray and chant invocations to the Goddess.
You share your vulnerable heart, dive deep into your inner realms, play, move and allow the full spectrum
of your emotional landscape to be witnessed.
The sensual delight of sound, scent and your own body temple's pulse awakens something deep in your womb space.
A knowing. A remembrance.
Something long forgotten and buried deep awakening once more.
Here - in this place - you are seen, heard, held and met completely in the fullness of who you are.
Here - in this space - you are loved and cherished, worshipped and adored.
Here - in this circle - there is no hierarchy and the wounds of the sisterhood start to heal.
Here, there is nothing to DO. Here, you are invited simply to BE.
There is nothing that is not welcome here. There is nothing that is too much.
There is nothing to fix and nothing to prove.
The Temple is a Holy Sanctuary - a place to grow your roots deep into Mother Earth, remember the truth of your
wild heart and reclaim your birthright of Belonging.
As the evening comes to a close the Temple Keeper gifts you a Red Rose and anoints your third eye, heart and womb space with Rose Oil.
You float out of the Temple - heart and womb cracked open to more love than you've ever felt before.
You are HOME.
I hope through my sharing you were able to feel what it might be like to enter the Temple once more.
I'd so love to hear from you - what is your experience or memory of being in the Temple?
For me it's been a life changing experience to be welcomed home this way - and now I feel deeply honoured to create these sacred spaces for other sisters to return once more to the Temple.
Bringing the women home - to the Temples of the Great Mother, the Temples of Sacred Sisterhood and the Temples of their beautiful body - has become a huge part of my divine purpose this lifetime - and one I feel so utterly blessed to devote my love and time to.
Temple of the Magdalene is my next current Temple offering.
Happening Sunday 29th October - you can find out all the details HERE
Enjoy these wild celestial times dear one - and may you find many moments of beauty and bliss amidst the mundane.
Rose Blessings,
