Moon Night Gathering

Moon Night Gathering: a time and place for all your feelings and needs

As a woman, have you ever wanted to scream, yell, and be LOUD? Maybe because you are mad as hell, super sad, or in so much pain that words don’t work anymore?

I was that woman one summer night. I wanted to scream, rage, and howl.

But… I live in a rowhome where I can literally hear my next door neighbor walk up and down stairs so how the !&@$# can I express myself without being that weirdo? 

I have found safe secluded public spaces and ways to be express ourselves in togetherness with other women – do all the things that are alive in us yet couldn’t be let out in our everyday lives.  

Magic happens when we let ourselves be seen and known:

  • Deeply buried things come to the surface
  • Revel in that others feel the same way too – you are not the crazy one! 
  • Acceptance to what is here, whether it is sadness, shame, anger, regret, and love – even love needs to be loud sometimes before it can be heard

I want to share this magic with all women in the Philadelphia area.

Free your tongue, heart, and mind to do what you really want to do

As the Mistress of the Moon Night, I invite you to a group experience to express yourself without anyone analyzing, giving advice, or commiserating.

During the Moon Night Gathering, we meet in a secluded public space. I create a safe environment and guide the group through agreements, warm ups, and other activities that let you be seen and known. 

We will make sounds, howl, move, and tell our stories in a different way.

Testimonials:

Anna E.'s experience:

“I appreciated how Nancy created a safe environment where I felt comfortable being open and vulnerable. The first few exercises seemed silly at first, but really did help me feel less guarded. Much of what we did that was non-verbal. There was one exercise that showed me how important it is for us to be witnessed and see that reflected back to us. Being in the dark was helpful! I sometimes have trouble with eye contact and being perceived, but the low light took away that pressure.”

Hear from Jo L.:

“As someone who has been processing a lot of griefs and navigating life changes mostly on my own, I immediately jumped at the chance to do so in community. To be able to do so in nature and in the light of the full moon was a bonus, and ended up making me feel connected and seen in more ways than I expected. Nancy is a great facilitator and validator – I really appreciate her initiative and leadership in terms of expanding this circle and this opportunity to more women. I hope to meet more of you on future moon night gatherings!”

Kori H.'s experience:

“It is rare to have the opportunity to raise my voice as a woman. Nancy creates the space and ceremony that allows me to let out my anger, stress, and pain! Doing this in the company of other women out in nature has been healing and cathartic beyond my expectations. “
