Moved and Rose & Sage welcome you to take the first gentle steps into the New Year with The Moving Circle’s Imbolc celebration.
Falling on the Cross Quarter Day between the Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox, Imbolc — a time of purification and awakening — invites us to leave winter behind and step sensitively into spring.
As we prepare our minds and bodies for this seasonal transition, Imbolc, meaning, “in the belly”, is a beautiful time to take our Circle outside into the woodland — Mother Nature’s belly — as she stirs from her winter slumber. Here we can sense an energetic shift and a resurgence of possibility and potential. It’s a time for new beginnings, for setting intentions and for sowing the seeds that can begin to bloom as spring arrives.
We'll step together into the reawakening woodland, noticing the first signs of new life. We’ll journal to capture the sentiment of the day, then take a walk to gather natural objects with which we can co-create our symbolic earth altar. We’ll then come together in Circle to share — those who want to — before closing our day with another gentle walk.
Come and walk the Wheel of the Year with us, embracing nature in all her beauty and sisterhood in all its sacredness.
LIMITED SPACES - Since we want to maintain the intimacy and connection of our Moving Circle, spaces are limited to 12 women only. Booking ahead is essential.
