About the event
If you’ve been craving a moment to slow down and reconnect to yourself, this is your invitation! Come spend an evening reconnecting with your inner voice, slowing your nervous system, and remembering what actually matters to you. Our Moon Circles are designed as an exhale—a dedicated container for women to reconnect with their own internal landscape. In the warmth of a tropical green house sanctuary, we gather to honor the natural cycles of growth and rest. Whether you are seeking clarity, a sense of belonging, or simply a quiet moment to breathe, you are welcome here. Our circle will be led by Avi Fox, a certified Reiki Master and women’s circle guide who creates safe, intentional spaces for reflection.
About the August New Moon:
This New Moon is also a Solar Eclipse in Leo—a potent reset around identity, self-expression, and the roles we’ve outgrown. Eclipses don’t just invite intention; they interrupt patterns. In Leo, this is about releasing the need to perform, prove, or be perceived a certain way—and returning to a more honest, self-led expression. Not louder, but truer. This circle is a space to notice what feels forced or outdated in how you show up, and to plant seeds rooted in authenticity, creative courage, and self-trust.
Why we gather:
Women have gathered in circles for millennia to sync their internal rhythms with the natural world. Our bodies are 60% water, subtly influenced by the same lunar pull that governs the tides. The New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle—a dark, fertile moment for intention-setting, visioning, and quiet beginnings. Together, we’ll create space to listen deeply, plant meaningful intentions, and root into what we’re ready to call in—without rush, without pressure.
What to Expect:
Intuitive Guidance: Journaling prompts to help you clarify your intentions and tune into your inner voice.
Witnessing Practice: A supportive space to share (if you feel called) and be held in presence—no fixing, no advice.
Energy & Rest: A guided meditation and group Reiki session led by Avi Fox to ground your intentions into the body.
