Friends,

Below is an email I wrote to those on my email list a few days back. I felt called to share it here in case you too might benefit from/ delight in/ feel called to explore 🌕 moonly women's circles.

"I’m not here to remind you about the state of our world.

You know what’s going on and you’re doing your best to navigate it all.

My hope is that your navigation strategy includes a solid self-loving routine that helps you to stay connected to your soul and energized for your mission.

My routine has evolved to include REGULAR daily meditations and walks in nature, kundalini yoga, acupuncture, massage, rollerdance, somatic therapy, the odd sound bath alongside...
...sister circle after sister circle after sister circle.

I’ve got Voxer sister circles, zoom sister circles, live sister circles…

Local, international.

Weekly, bi-weekly, moonly.

And of all my delicious self-loving tools, circling with women is what brings me back to myself, and what holds me in a circle of belonging.


Imagine, what it would feel like if every month you had a Full Moon sister’s circle to look forward to, and every season a delicious up-leveling Sacred Feminine Ceremony, blocked out in your calendar.

🕯️ Sacred soul time and space to exhale, go into a deep healing meditation, release your grievances and celebrate your wins.

🕯️ A trusting place where you’ll feel held in a sense of belonging with like-minded women.

🕯️ A time to connect more deeply with nature’s cyclical wisdom and plug into Goddess energy in remembrance of who you are and what you’re here to do.


The Witchhunt Collective: 13 Moons Together doors are open for 2 more weeks. It's an affordable, magical year-long women’s circling experience that you can join for as little as $37 per month or $400 for the entire year.

Reach out if you have any questions.

We have a beautiful circle of women coming together and I’d love if you were part of it ♥️.

5 spaces left. Doors close March 20.

I remember.

34 years ago today-

“On December 6, 1989, Marc Lépine entered a mechanical engineering class at the École Polytechnique in Montreal and ordered the women and men to opposite sides of the classroom. He separated nine women, instructing the men to leave. He stated that he was “fighting feminism” and opened fire. He shot at all nine women in the room, killing six. The shooter then moved through corridors, the cafeteria, and another classroom, targeting women for just under 20 minutes. He killed a further eight before turning the gun on himself.”

Geneviève Bergeron, 21, was a second year scholarship student in civil engineering.
Hélène Colgan, 23, was in her final year of mechanical engineering and planned to take her Master’s degree.
Nathalie Croteau, 23, was in her final year of mechanical engineering.
Barbara Daigneault, 22, was in her final year of mechanical engineering and held a teaching assistantship.
Anne-Marie Edward, 21, was a first year student in chemical engineering.
Maud Haviernick, 29, was a second year student in engineering materials, a branch of metallurgy, and a graduate in environmental design.
Barbara Maria Klucznik, 31, was a second year nursing student.
Maryse Laganière, 25, worked in the budget department of the Polytechnique.
Maryse Leclair, 23, was a fourth year student in engineering materials.
Anne-Marie Lemay, 27, was a fourth year student in mechanical engineering.
Sonia Pelletier, 28, was to graduate the next day in mechanical engineering. She was awarded a degree posthumously.
Michèle Richard, 21, was a second year student in engineering materials.
Annie St-Arneault, 23, was a mechanical engineering student.

During this dark time of the year, global environmental crises & conflicts drag us deeper into the underbellies of our hearts and souls.
 
We weep at the news and wail in the woods.
 
Beneath it all is a desperate call for unity and light...

🌍⭐️🕊️❤️

Winter Solstice is the turning point that marks the end of the longest night & welcomes the return of the Sun 🌞.
 
Witches in the North gather to honour this important shift.
 
We draw on nature’s energetics to bring light into the heart of the season’s darkness.
 
We manifest our dreams, releasing what holds us back, and setting our individual and collective paths forward.
 
And you’re invited!

LUZ is a sacred gathering rooted in ancient wisdom.
 
Designed as a portal to self-discovery — through connection with the energetics of nature’s cycles, inner wisdom & one another. 
 
It’s for those ready to embrace the Solstice as a powerful transition from darkness to light.

When you join LUZ you can expect to:

1 — Connect more deeply with nature’s cyclical wisdom (your body, included) 
 
2 — Learn about the Wheel of the Year and the astrological energy of this time 
 
3 — Leave the circle having released what no longer serves you
 
4 — An embodied experience of the version of the woman you’re stepping into

5 — Indulge in the feeling of belonging & oneness that the circle has created

6 — Connect in sisterhood over beverages & light snacks after the Ceremony has closed

The investment for this magical Earth-centered IN-PERSON* circle is $67CAD**.
 
When? Thursday December 21st, at 6:30pm EST 

Where? Community OutWitch in Parkdale, Toronto or via live stream 

*Limited In-Person spaces available. If you can’t make it live, we’ll set up live-streaming for you.

**Sliding scale available —DM me
