ABOUT THIS WORK:
Embodying the Sacred Feminine - 2025 Series
Join Petra for a transformative journey into the sacred within.

Welcome to this year’s deep and nourishing work, designed for all women who wish to explore and connect more deeply with themselves, their bodies, and the sacred energies of nature. This series of workshops will continue to honour the elements and the various aspects of the feminine experience, bringing mindful practices, sound, movement, and connection to the fore. This year, we will focus on the compass points—east, south, west, north, above, below, and centre—as our guides. Through circle, breath, meditation, movement, drumming, gong baths, and shared stories, we will continue to explore and deepen our connection to the sacred feminine.

About the Journey

Each session will explore one of the compass points—east, south, west, north, above, below, and centre. They will guide us through a cycle of exploration that involves the elements, our senses, and our sacred feminine power. Together, we will deepen our embodiment practices through movement, breathwork, sound healing with the drum and gong, and meditation, all while engaging with the world around us.

What to Expect

• Circle: Every session will begin with a circle, creating a safe and supportive environment where we connect as a community.
• Breathwork: We will begin each session with mindful breathwork to settle our nervous system, create relaxation, and connect to the present moment.
• Movement: Through guided movement, we will engage with our bodies, bringing awareness to our embodied experience, letting go of tension, and opening to new energies.
• Drum & Gong Bath: Each session will end with the sacred sounds of the drum and gong, allowing deep relaxation and embodiment, fostering an experience of integration and transformation.
• Sharing Circle: Time for reflection and sharing will deepen our connection to the group and the sacred work we’re doing together.

New for 2025: This year, we are adding a deeper exploration of our senses, as we engage with the world around us in new ways.

The Compass Points of the Sacred Feminine

In each session we will focus on one of the seven sacred directions and divine wisdom:

• 18 Apr: East (The Maiden) – Awaken new beginnings, vision, and clarity. Embrace the energy of fresh starts, renewal, and vitality.

• 30 May: South (The Wild Woman) – Connect with your wild and untamed spirit. Tap into your creativity, spontaneity, and deep inner knowing.

• 27 Jun: West (The Wise Woman) – Stand in your power, wisdom, and sovereignty. This session will bring deep grounding and a connection to the earth. 

• 18 Jul: North (The Queen) – Embrace wisdom, reflection, and inner knowing. Honor the cycles of nature and the lessons that come with age and experience.

• 15 Aug: Above (The Divine) – Connect with your higher self, the divine, and the cosmos. Embrace your intuition, sacred wisdom, and the expansive energies of the universe.

• 19 Sep: Below (The Earth Mother) – Honor the grounding, nurturing, and supportive energies of the Earth. Find peace and stillness within your body and spirit.

• 10 Oct: Centre (The Sacred Heart) – Connect with the divine within you. Embrace the power of your heart, your essence, and your soul’s purpose.
