She's also a reiki master, human design reader, and huge advocate of building community around shared goals and interest like creativity and spirituality.

Description
What to Bring
- A candle
- A pre-written journal entry (prompt below)
- Anything else you'd like at your altar (crystals, tarot, etc)
What to Expect
Whether you have never been to a circle before or this is your 15th time, I welcome you. No two circles are ever the same. The evening starts with happy hour snacks and light refreshments before settling into circle as a group. We meditate to my Nepali singing bowls and then we will read one another's journal entries out loud. Please don't worry - all of us are in the same boat (I write an entry, too) so it's completely okay if you feel awkward or vulnerable about your thoughts being shared. Try to write from the heart as much as possible. We don't have enough spaces for true open, non-judgmental dialogue anymore and that's the goal of this circle and community. You may handwrite your entry, jot it on your phone, print it out - whatever works :)
Journal Prompts
You don't have to answer every one of these questions, just write in response to what calls to you.
✨ What limiting beliefs or outdated opinions have I been holding onto? How can I release them with grace?
✨ How can I balance my desire for constant mental stimulation (Gemini) with my need for meaningful experiences and wisdom (Sagittarius)?
✨What stories or perspectives am I treating as absolute truth? How can I stay open to new insights?
✨What practices help me bridge the gap between my sense of logic (Gemini) and faith (Sagittarius)?
✨Where in my life am I resisting freedom out of fear of uncertainty? What would it feel like to embrace the unknown with curiosity?
✨ What beliefs or stories have I been clinging to that no longer serve my highest truth? How can I gently release them?
What's Going On In The Cosmos
The June full moon is known as the Strawberry Moon, a name rooted in Native American traditions, marking the time when wild strawberries ripen. This moon is a celebration of sweetness, abundance, and the joy of discovery.
This month's full moon peaks in the adventurous and truth-seeking sign of Sagittarius, opposite the curious and communicative energy of Gemini. While Gemini invites us to gather information, share ideas, and explore different perspectives, Sagittarius calls us to seek deeper meaning, to trust our inner wisdom, and to expand our horizons. Gemini and Sagittarius are opposites because they represent mind vs. spirit, facts vs. truth, logic vs. belief, and details vs. big picture, so you might be feeling a pull between these energies especially now.
Together, this axis invites us to explore the balance between logic and intuition, between seeking knowledge and embodying our inner wisdom, between gentle curiosity and fierce conviction. Under this potent moon, we are invited to release outdated beliefs, embrace new adventures, and cultivate a mindset of openness and possibility. 🌕🍓
Full Evening Agenda
1. MOONSHINE & GROUND RULES We'll mix and mingle for a bit until everyone arrives. There will be light refreshments and snacks served for a happy hour before settling into our circle. Then we'll go over the basics to set up a mindful space for sharing.
2. SET INTENTIONS & LIGHT CANDLES We go around the circle and state 1 thing we hope to gain from this experience as we each light our candle in front of us.
3. MEDITATE We'll spend 10 minutes meditating by candlelight to the sound of my singing bowls lovingly made under a full moon in Nepal. Spend time reflecting on our goals, connecting as a group, and getting in touch with our bodies as we enter zen self-reflection mode.
4. INTROSPECT This will be a large part of our evening. One by one we will read each other's journal entries aloud to the rest of the group. The purpose is to have a space to be purely heard. No dialogue yet, just listening.
5. EXTROSPECT Dialogue ensues. Each circle member gets the chance to comment on whichever they heard from others. Did something evoke a strong reaction? Make you think in a new way? Feel free to share anything that comes up.
6. GRATEFULNESS & GAIN Each member of the circle states one person/place/thing they are grateful for having or currently experiencing in their lives.
7. HOPEFUL LOSS Circle members state one thing they hope to reduce/lose/let go of in the coming weeks as they blow out their candles one by one
8. CLOSING THOUGHTS A chance for open dialogue, feedback, connecting with other members of the circle and easing back into the routines of life before going back off into the dark of the night.
