Women's life rites
Earth based spirituality provides a framework for women’s -and men’s - time on this earth, with women's time often related as three faces:
The Maiden - In the past this would relate to a girl past puberty but before having her own children. Today this would be interpreted as a girl or woman who hasn’t settled down either with a partner, a home or a career
The Mother – In the past this covered the woman in her role of nurturing children. Today women have more freedom in their role so it may relate to childrearing but also career or artistic endeavours.
The Crone – Historically honoured as ‘the wise woman’, the grandmother who is respected and supports her community. Today older women do not always have that respect and can feel invisible in the world.
Amethyst offers women only ceremonies and workshops to reflect Women’s experience
Out of the tent
A workshop for groups of women experiencing the menopause. We will reflect on what this means to us, the loss and the gains. The workshop provides a sacred safe space to mark this rite of passage. Workshops can be organised for an established group of women or you can book onto an open session.
