Women of Winter Solstice
Thursday 19th December 2024
STROUD
19:00 - 21:00
"But winter darkness has a positive side to it. As we gather to celebrate the first turn from winter to spring, we are invited to recognise and honour the beauty in the often unwanted season of winter. Let us invite our hearts to be glad for the courage winter proclaims. Let us be grateful for the wisdom winter brings in teaching us about the need for withdrawal as an essential part of renewal. Let us also encourage our spirits as Earth prepares to come forth from this time of withdrawal into a season filled with light."
~Joyce Rupp and Macrina Wiederkehr ~
Embrace the magic of the winter season and join me for a sacred evening of warmth, reflection, and creative connection as we gather to celebrate the Winter Solstice, the quiet turning point of the year. This women’s circle offers a space to embrace the gifts of the season: stillness, insight, and the gentle return of light. Through meditation, intention-setting, and mindful creation, we’ll open ourselves to the magic of Yule, the ancient tradition honouring this cycle of rest and rebirth.
Why Gather for the Winter Solstice?
The Winter Solstice, or Yule, invites us to pause and honour the beauty of winter’s darkness—a time to go within, reflect, and prepare for a new season of growth. As the longest night gives way to dawn, we are reminded of our own resilience and the light that always returns. Coming together in circle at this time is a profound way to celebrate the shared cycles of nature and our own lives.
As part of our celebration, we’ll create conscious Christmas cards—simple gifts made with love, intention, and purpose. Each card will be crafted not only as a work of art but as a true gift from the heart. With thoughtful words or symbols, these cards carry personal blessings, a reminder that our presence and intentions are the most meaningful gifts we can give. Through this mindful creation, we’ll embody the spirit of giving that the season invites us to explore.
Join me for a night of connection, reflection, and sharing, as we celebrate the resilience and inner light that resides within each of us. Let's kindle the fires of our spirits, casting out the darkness and welcoming the rebirth of the sun. Your presence would make the circle complete, and I can't wait to share this enchanting experience with you.
We will;
~ Share together what this year has taught us.
~ Embrace the womb of darkness with a guided meditation.
~ Set intentions and welcome in the light.
~ Create Conscious Christmas cards for loved ones.
This will be a cosy circle of 9 women (including myself) and a scaled donation energy exchange is available with a small admin fee.

All materials will be provided.
The circle will be held in Stroud and the location will be given to you the week before the circle or you can contact me if you'd like to know beforehand.
It’s of high importance that when attending this circle that everything spoken about is kept within the circle. Sharing with each other in complete confidence and having the ability to trust each other is a beautiful thing and can be so powerful and healing, but the breaking of that trust can be damaging, so let’s keep our sisterhood completely sacred in that way.
We will have an altar so please bring something special you would like to add to it.
I look forward to meeting you all, as you are.
Much love,
