newMOON - Rosh Hodesh Circle

Click HERE for our HEALTHY Potluck Signup

Shalom,

YOU are invited. All beings that can hold sacred and safe space for others to tap into belonging. All transwomxn, gender queer people, all grandmas, mamas, aunties...if YOU are looking to journey in sacred community, please join.

Because we all need a fertile, sacred space to glean wisdom and heal, so we gather together monthly in the garden on (or near) the newMOON to pause and turn inward, to feed and water our inner landscape, to share, and to set intentions for the month. 

This circle is rooted in a lineage that has been gathering for 18 years. Based in ancient Jewish ritual, we gather when it's dark to tap into the fertile void, to replenish with strength and nourishment. The goal of this healing circle is to explore lunar medicine, and learn about the monthly themes in the Hebrew calendar.

WHERE: PRIVATE HOME - address/event details provided upon registration.

WHEN: Circle begins promptly at 7pm. Garden is open from 6:30pm for a healthy potluck. Each of us will bring something healthy to share (more than chips and hummus: for example please bring, a hearty garden soup, or stir-fry greens, or a vegan dish).

6pm - 6:30pm - Set Up: any helpers, please arrive early

6:30pm-7pm - Check In/Socialize & Nosh in the Garden

Wellness: Attendees should be double-vaccinated and have NO SYMPTOMS - fever, cough, body aches, etc. within 24 hours of event. Masks are required inside and encouraged in close proximity. We will be outside for this event.

WHAT TO BRING: For our newMOON Rosh Hodesh, we ask you to bring warm layers (a hot water bottle/blanket). Bring healthy potluck dish / wine to share, and bring an empty jar to take home your herbal salts.

WHERE: A different host from our newMOON opens her/their home each month...Let us know if you'd like to host. 

COST: $18-$25 Energy Exchange

*Consider joining our monthly newMOON practice. Even if you miss a month, we will plant your seed for you and can even deliver salts to you.

newMOON Goddess: I will buy a Three-Month, Six-Month, or 12-Month newMOON package to support our circle - at any level. (This gives you three, six or twelve tickets and enables us to continue to share seeds, newMOON essential oils for the month, art supplies, and more food during our newMoon circles.) Your tickets can be used anytime throughout the year.

Work-Exchange: I want in, but cost is a serious concern. (Different people enter this community at different levels. Nobody has ever, or will ever, be turned away for lack of funds. We ask each of us to give back whatever possible, no more and no less.) To that end, I commit to a work trade to come early and stay late to setup/breakdown after the ritual at the event that I attend.

Sending YOU newMOON Blessings! We can't wait to share ritual together,

Dev Brous & Yaelle Shaphir
