A sanctuary space for conversations around women’s faith and spirituality
From January 2025, members of The Hearth (i.e. ‘founding members’ of The Art of Enchantment) will be invited to participate in conversations around women’s faith and spirituality.
Some of the questions we will engage with include:
How do we find meaning in an increasingly secular – and challenging – age?
Why are women still not accepted as equals within traditional faith hierarchies?
How do we find our own authentic ways of honouring the divine and the sacred feminine, outside of those institutions and hierarchies as well as within them?
Please note that although our scope will be wide-ranging, our main focus will not be on neopagan traditions (Wicca, Druidism, Heathenry etc) as there are many other forums for such discussions if that’s your main interest.
I’ll be producing monthly written or video posts, as well as threads, to introduce a topic for conversation around contemporary faith and spirituality. Exclusive chat is available to all members. There will be four online sharing circles during the year to talk about these issues.
The Hearth is also focused on the ways in which mythic imagination practices, contemplative practices and a practice of paying close attention to the land we live in can help us to ground ourselves in the seasons and cycles of the year – and so in the seasons and cycles of our lives. We have four seasonal 90-minute online retreats during which we consider the ways in which we can be present in the world with intention and awareness.
