Open Moon Lodge Under The Green Corn Moon

 Bring yourself as you are and join in a community of women for sacred ceremony

 under the Green Corn Full Moon in August

Suzanne Silvermoon, High Priestess of this lodge,  has been participating in and leading Moon Lodge Sister Circles for over 30 years.  She is offering with deep, and humble gratitude to her elders, Susan Weed and Brook Medicine Eagle to continue the Moon Lodge tradition they have birthed and nurtured.  During Moon Lodge we step in and commit to carry the elder’s vision of the co-creation of a loving compassionate, non-judgmental, sacred space created under the moon.

Sisters bring their joys, inspirations, visions, heartaches, losses, and burdens and lay them bare before the community to witness and support them through it all. The elements of the Moon Lodge ceremony are designed to create a sacred and safe portal or container for all that will emerge during the lodge. Each participant holds their thread of the energetic womb co-created for the ceremony. Together we grow strong, resilient, clear, and empowered to embrace all that life brings us, create our best life, and contribute to the elevation of the whole. All that is shared in the lodge remains in the lodge.

What to bring:

· An open heart and mind

· Something comfortable to sit on

· Appropriate clothing to remain comfortable outdoors under the tent

· A contribution to add to our Altar for the evening (all items will go home with you after the ceremony)

· Either a Potluck Dish, or your own prepared meal if you are not wanting to participate in Potluck food at this time

· Your own personal Dish/Bowl/Serving & Eating Utensils/Cup or Drinking Vessel

· Perhaps some bug repellant might be a good idea

· Flashlight or headlamp to help you navigate back to your vehicle after the ceremony

The rest of the circle holds loving supportive space for what she is sharing from her heart without comments or interjections. When she is finished, she can let the group know if she is open to comment or dialogue about her share after the circle closes.

· Seeds of intention to nurtured and attended to for the next lunar cycle are contemplated

· Seed Planting Song

· Closing of the circle

The tradition of Moon Lodge is one of community building and support of creating enduring and sacred bonds of sisterhood for life’s journey. There is never a monetary requirement to participate in the lodge. Part of Suzanne Silvermoon’s Dharma is to support the continuation of Moon Lodge and is available to any sister wanting support to create her own circle. She can be reached at suzanne@indigolotusyoga.com

Pre-Registration is required to secure your spot! 

In order to uphold the integrity of the Moon Lodge flow, we must cap full capacity at twenty four women.
