Hello Sisters, Sooooo… you might know there’s a hurricane happening in the Gulf, and it’s impacting lots of the SE states… and might impact my flights. I leave Boise tonight at 1130p and land in Atlanta tomorrow morning around 7a… and then on to BOS to arrive around 10a. Just asking for good thoughts and prayers that I do not get stuck in Atlanta (or anywhere). I’ve let the other car women know via text, so they’ll have the latest on my status. Love, Gretchen Life Rewards Action! Yay!

Hi Sisters, Oh my! This brain of mine is whirring in a good, creative, visioning, curious, exploring kind of way. Here are some thoughts emerging: Because heart and mind dance and weave together in so many ways, I wanted to share some thoughts I’ve had about the proposal of Katie C coming in to facilitate 4 weekends for us (2 years). First, I’m feeling drawn to offering to be the logistical coordinator/So-Fo from our end for the next year. I’m still sitting with the idea… and the yes is starting to hum. This role would include keeping the SSR wheel turning smoothly including: - Booking lodging - Emails to group about the upcoming weekend, etc. - Organizing food and leadership roles - Facilitating opening and closing circle and flow on the weekends - Organizing a zoom check-in between weekends - Communication with Katie C (If someone else is interested in this role, let me/us know!) I also find it helpful to look at what the numbers of the cost per weekend might potentially be. This is what I’m seeing: $1300 for lodging $1000 for Katie C $25 for membership fee $2325 per weekend total If 10 women: $233 per person per weekend If 8 women: $291 per person per weekend If 6 women: $388 per person per weekend Note #1: We could experiment with sliding scale and see how much women are willing to contribute to offset costs for sisters who need support. Note #2: Not sure if there will be material costs? We also have a materials fund we could use for this… Note #3: The idea was mentioned to have the local women pay for a rental car for the airport women. This would be in addition to the above weekend fees listed. Note #4: Where would Katie C sleep? And would that impact our finances at all? Note #5: I think it would lovely to have the option available to stay as members and pay the $25 per weekend and not participate in the Katie C program. These women would still be on the email list and still be welcome on zoom check-ins (the ones not pertaining to the Katie C stuff anyway). I personally would want people to sign up with the commitment of attending an official 2 year program. In order to have a clear budget, I imagine women would agree to pay for each weekend even if they couldn’t come for some reason. And, while I’m sharing my personal musings, I’m going to just keep on flowing with it. Honestly, I’m not drawn to the work of Clarissa Pinkole Estes. I’d love to do breathwork. I also know Katie C calls herself “an emotional baggage handler” and would be very interested in seeing if she could design ritual for exploring sacred rage as well as a grief ceremony. I’d also be curious to hear if she has any energy clearing or healing tools or brain/body integration techniques that she could teach. Last, I can feel myself growing into a new way of being with SSR. I want you all to stay! So much so! And, I know we are in transition and feel really sad that perhaps some may find it time to go. Rather than chase or convince or grasp tightly, I’m in a place of gently and solidly holding space with a big heart for each sister to choose what is right for her. I respect that we each have our life journey with different chapters and that you know what is best for you at this time. We’re stepping into our more crone-y years and that may have a different flavor and look. I believe we can do this in a good way with so much deep love for one another as we emerge and evolve into whatever adventure is next. Phew! That a glimpse into this mind of mine. :) Safe travels and I'm happy to get you see many of you so soon! Love you all, Meggie

Hello Sisters, I totally messed up and made an entree that has meat. I am so sorry. RayRay, want to switch? Please let me know who is vegetarian. Again I am sorry, I didn't read the list correctly. xo Matooka

Hello sisters, We will be gathering in 2 weeks! YAY! Meggie found the update to our agreements regarding the membership fee and this is what it states: It is a Biannual payment of $25. Participants pay membership reguardless of weekend attendance. Membership provided before or at the weekend. Membership allocation $20 toward lodging and $5 toward materials fund. I want to explain with full transparency how the $160 per sister coming still works including the membership fee. There are 10 of us joining and 3 of us not. The 3 sisters not coming will be paying $75 that divided by 5 (materials contribution) = 15. There is only 13 of us so subtract 13=2. 2x$5= $10 I as the accountant I will give all 10 sisters one dollar at the weekend and $65 dollars will go into our materials Fund. I hope that is understandable. Please let me know if you have any issues with that math or situation. If you paid me the membership fee already on top of the $160 I will refund you. With that said Marsia, Suzanne and Noreen will not be joining us— Would any of you like to join us via zoom for opening and closing circle? Gretchen has offered to navigate that for us. Please let us know. Our opening circle will be at 7pm on Friday evening. Saturday- Stephanie will be joining us in the morning and leaving in the evening on Saturday, exact timing not yet known. Saturday evening connection time-- Singing songs and sharing stories by the fire or in the temple is what I am envisioning. Bring some songs and stories to share. Drums and rattles too. Being with each other amongst the question of our why for gathering and holding each other within that. Sunday- Morning : Lets get the creative juices flowing for our meeting and express our why through color, collage, words. Bring some art supplies for yourself or to share. Does anyone have a speaker they could bring for music? perhaps a little dancing will be taking place too. Mid-day/Afternoon: What are we choosing for the future weekends with our group? Different people signing up for roles. Bring forth your ideas of what works and why.

Hello Sisters, I’m sure there’s other stuff to talk about, but in the spirit of prepping for my proposal to have an outside facilitator come in –(and having named Katie Chiaravolloti), it occurred to me that it might be helpful to share what she sent to me as possibilities so there’s time to consider before discussion. We also talked about pricing, and that info is below. FROM KATIE: First, most importantly, I am extremely interested in what the women would like to see happen. I could meet with the group via zoom in November. What kind of offerings are they interested in? What energies or visions feel important to them if someone were to come in and facilitate? In the meantime, here are some possibilities that I can offer: I have studied extensively with Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés-Réyes author of Women Who Run With the Wolves and am open to teaching how to lay their lives down next to a story; working in the deeper unconscious. This may entail using a myth or a tale over a weekend to incorporate different aspects of the unconscious mind. Storytelling or even having them read it ahead of time and then journal prompts and discussion about how the myth is working in life. This is often a rich and unearthing practice. This would include dream work, looking at core wounds, tools for blessing and releasing burdens, active imagination, light trance all held in a ceremonial circle. I also have experience with BodySoulRhythms work (Marion Woodman), though not formal training there. Her work incorporates the dance of the unconscious with expressive arts, movement, story/myth and dream work. We can work with signs and symbols on the collective unconscious realms and thread it back to everyday life. I often teach about dream work, evoking the dream maker and then how to do basic dream analysis. I also offer: Firewalk Transformational Breathwork Self-reflexology Body blessing rituals. I would be curious about you and me doing some kind of work with group dynamics and how the Shadow Types show up. Our pricing conversation: For the timing of mid-morning Saturday until 2p-ish on Sunday. TOTAL: $2k per year This was based on the estimate of $360 for gas (at $ .56/mile) to drive to us And a “mad price” of $700 for the facilitation of the weekend. If supplies are needed, she would let us know what those are with estimates and provide receipts (or we could bring the supplies) That’s what I’ve got for the conversation. See you all soon!

Hello Sisters, Feels like it is time to share some of my scary thoughts with you. I have been sitting on the fence about attending next month. A big story rolling around in my head regarding affording/manifesting the funds to join you all. I realize it is fear but it is also real. I haven't had steady work nor has Wren. So it has been challenging to find my YES. Now some of you may know that I attended a women's herbal conference last weekend. They offered a work-study which supported my ability to go. I want to be clear, I am not asking for handouts only to share with you the struggle within. However, there is an idea percolating. As you know, I have been studying herbalism these past few years. I didn't go this year due to funds, however, I have made a lot of medicine. Tinctures, salves, and flower essences. My storehouse cabinets are rather full and I would love to share them with you all. I will accept donations to cover the cost of the products. If this sounds of interest to you, please let me know and I will send a detailed inventory list. Thank you for hearing me. Please know that I am not attached to this idea. If there isn't interest I accept that. Hugs and love, Matooka

Hi sisters, We'll take posession of our new house today, although we won't actually move in until Friday, 9/13.

Hi Sisters! Katie asked me to put together a quick doodle poll to set up a time to meet with Sarah who will be facilitating a ritual for us at our weekend.

Hello Dear Women, I am presently going through some pretty dark days. I am struggling with a recent and severe flare up of eczema that has brought everything in my life to a halt. It's been weeks of not sleeping, itching, and questioning my life and reasons for living. It's been really hard. My mental health is definitely in question. Please send prayers and forgive me for not being able to join you. While I hope for relief over the next few weeks, I know it will be some time before my body heals.The discomfort was challenging for me on our last weekend, as I was dealing with eczema issues then as well. However, this is 100% worse. I know what caused it and now I am living its effects. Sucks. Blessings to all, M -- Marsia S. Harris/Mother Turtle Artist and Creator of Healing the Stories We Tell Ourselves with Mother Turtle https://www.MotherTurtle.com

Hi sisters, I am struggling and I don't know whether to talk to a friend, ask for a circle of support (a zoom call with some of you?), get counseling, all of the above. Mom has memory loss and cognition problems, severe anxiety, a limited lifestyle, and loneliness. So she wants to talk, but has nothing to talk about. And she has a million anxieties and memory problems. All that combines resulting in her repeat things over and over, asking things over and over. Unlike Dane, I work from home so I'm here with her all day every day. I wake up with my patience bank topped off from the night off sleeping, and then it's chipped away at all day long. Some days I make it to evening before I get snappish, other days it wears out earlier. She also may have some "sundowning" making her more prone to confusion and anger in the evening. Today is one of those "other days." It's only 9:22 am today and already I've gotten into a fight with her. I'm not nice, apparently want her to never speak, don't like anything about her, basically hate her, and probably never loved her. I pointed out that I moved to Lexington to take care of her, but she does not (at this moment) believe that. I guess I just moved from a city full of art, culture, theater, restaurants to a town of 4500 only for the big house I could buy. I'm going to move out and never come see her. She makes up these stories and they aren't true, but she hears anything I say that isn't 100% positive as critical of her. Intellectually, I KNOW that she can't remember she's asked the same thing 3 times in 5 minutes, or the other thing 15 times today, or whatever. When we got snappish this morning, I made the mistake of saying that I just wanted her to understand, empathize a little, how hard it is to be with someone with memory loss, how it could be irritating to answer the same thing over and over. I should know better, she cannot hear or understand this. Doesn't believe she does it because every time she asks anything is the first time to her. To her (when we are fighting about it), she is just making conversation. (When we are not fighting, she is clearly anxious and asking again and again, worried about what day it is, what she has to do, when she has to be ready, whether she's taken her pills, and a million minor household things she sees and believes have to be taken care of right then.) Instead, it's all about her--she can't help it. Why don't I sympathize with how lonely she is, how she needs someone to talk to, etc. (Her lonelinees, and need for help, is why I moved home, but I'm not succeeding.) I recognize in myself that from first moving in and beginning to experience this every day, I have been putting up my guard, doing things verbally and nonverbally trying to discourage conversation a lot of the time. I feel like my brain has been pricked full of pinholes having to revisit constantly things that don't matter (to me, and not really to her although she thinks they are important), that I have already put a plan in place to resolve ("Harold is coming to fix the screen next week...Harold is coming to fix the screen next week..."), or can't prioritize yet amidst everything else going on (what are we going to do about a few dead trees, who's going to do snow removal this winter, etc.). I have MUCH less time to my own uninterrupted thoughts, and am consequently struggling to keep all the balls I'm juggling in the air. The farm needs attention for sure and that's an area I have most neglected during this. I am hopeful that when I move and start coming over here for visits, which will likely be almost daily, probably often more than once a day, that I can put on a happy face and be nothing but sweet, loving, attentive, positive, talkative, etc. Anything but that is likely to make her think I'm sullen, don't want her to talk, etc. So for the next three weeks while stil living here, and for the future when I am just coming over frequently, I need some coping skills, and I'm still swamped with so many responsibilities even as certain big things have resolved (moving, selling my Virgi

Hi everyone, I noticed a Facebook post from ALisa, with a portrait of her taken in 2018 for use in a photography exhibition and book "Major Arcana: Witches of North America." It's an interesting post from ALisa you might look up on her page and read (she posted today), including ALisa saying that she asked the photographer to remove her photo from the exhibition/book because of rejection of her by family because of it. But meanwhile, I went looking for this photographer and her portraits. Thought you might enjoy two of her portfolios in particular. https://www.francesfdenny.com/ Select Portfolios on the left and then -Major Arcana: Witches in North America (portraits of women, perhaps self identified as witches; it isn't explained) and -Spellwork (artistic photos of flowers and plants set among objects and related to the named spells i guess, I don't know much about spells, but words and images come together to make lovely art regardless) From the extraordinary heart and mind of Jill Nienhiser via jnienhiser@...
