Full Moon Shakti Circle ~ Lakshmi

Just after the start of 2024 and the Capricorn New Moon, use this auspicious time to connect with your heart and clarify your New Year intentions. To help access your inner divine feminine and raise your frequency and receptivity, we'll be exploring the Goddess Lakshmi, which is the epitome of beauty, abundance, & love.

Throughout the evening, we will be setting intentions, sharing in community, moving our bodies with a short yoga segment, enjoying various meditations to connect with Lakshmi, and finishing with an extended Sound Bath Journey. During that segment, I'll play my beautiful planetary Moon gong along with chimes, rain stick, and singing bowls. Stick around for tea, snacks, and connection to finish off the night.

Though nobody will be turned away, this event is particularly tailored for women/femme identifying & non binary people.
