Women's Ceremony
a women's circle to re-connect with our self & sisterhood

On the 21st of June we are celebrating both the start of Summer (Summer Solstice) and Cancer season. A beautiful moment to come together as a group of women to celebrate transitioning into a new season.

Summer Solstice, happening on June 20, also called Midsummer, is marking the longest day of the year. On this day the Sun travels the longest path through the sky which results in the most daylight on our planet. During this ceremony we will celebrate Summer Solstice, just like in ancient times. Celebrating the light and the warmth of Summer. Two days later the Sun moves in the sign of Cancer, which marks Cancer season.

The female archetype connected to this zodiac is the Mother — She nurtures and cares about her family, her tribe, her community. She is the one who keeps it together. She is a true giver and is committed to the family. She knows how to create a safe space for herself and others to be vulnerable. During this ceremony we will work with both the energy of Cancer and the Summer Solstice; set intentions for the seasons and nurture and care about ourself first.

The Women's Ceremonies are designed as monthly gatherings that offer a space for self-connection, gaining insights, and guidance on your personal journey and life path. These sessions are held in the company of a wonderful group of like-minded souls.

Why?
Coming together as a group of women can be really uplifting, empowering and motivating. In ancient times this was part of the women’s mysteries. Priestesses and witches (both wise women) were doing this regularly. Because of the patriarch this was banned from culture. Women could no longer come together as it was dangerous. It is time to restore the women’s mysteries and experience the power of women coming together. 

How?
A combination of (embodiment) practices, sharing and teachings. Ella is combining astrology, shamanism, breathwork and tantric practices during this ceremony. Every ceremony holds a combination of different tools and rituals that are connect to the theme for the evening.

About Ella
Ella started to walk the path of Shamanism back in 2019, when she started with Shamanic Astrology where she still is a student. This was the beginning, her interest in Shamanism was born. In 2021 she found the right place and teacher to go deeper into the ancient wisdom and last April she became a certified Shamanic Practitioner. She completed her training with Ron Townsend at Definest in Almere, who is trained by Sandra Ingerman herself, who is a great inspiration to Ella. Last September she did her first training into Shamanic Breathwork with Linda Star Wolf and to dive deeper into breathwork she joined the first breathwork coach training at De Nieuwe Yogaschool. 

Since the start of the training she tries to implement Shamanism in her work and daily life and with that her fascination for nature started to grow. Living in connection with the natural cycles of Land & Sky, honoring the elements and in contact with (her) helping Spirits is part of who she is. (ellagiljam.com)
