Dear Women of The Red Tent,

ALisa Starkweather, women's empowerment facillitator, visionary, co-founder of Women in Power and founder of the Belly and Womb Conference and Priestess Path Apprenticeship is the creator of the Red Tent Temple Movement that is spreading throughout the country.

The feminine is rising up to meet the masculine in our society in a way that is new, while breaking away from previous limitations of defined roles and constructs.

What we're talking about here is not feminist in the unfortunately negative sense of the word, but a coming to terms with balance and what that means to a world that is globally challenged... to heal the way we relate to each other and the way we relate to our environment. The way to heal the way we relate to each other is to heal the way we relate to ourselves. As women, we have an opportunity to heal our relationships with ourselves and with other women by coming together in the diverse and colorful ways we show up, and being radically inclusive.

What is the Red Tent? It is an opportunity to take time out of your harried and speeding life and connect with your inner wisdom. It's time for regenerating, recharging, renewing, and finding balance in an unsane world. It is a place for that crying grieving heart to let loose and wash itself free and clear again. Time to sing, nap, rest, laugh, cry, be hugged, hug, and pay attention to what you want.

Historically women are taught to put others first and to give until we have nothing left. The Red Tent was a place where women went to bleed, to have their moontime together and a place to rest and listen to their dreams each month. We are bringing back our birthright to have time each month, no matter what, to recharge.

This is a collaborative event!
I would be grateful for any assistance if you are able or inclined.

Blessings In Bliss,
Beki (lilithspeaks)
