Lean into lunar cycles. Create and practice supportive patterns. Explore the energy of the New Moon—the energy of letting go and beginning again. Invite the darkness of the New Moon to aid and protect you as you go within to listen for what your system wants/needs. The circle is created and held under the new moon, with the support of astrology and tarot as soft structures (... think spider webs, mycelium, fascia.) You can expect time for grounding, listening, creating, writing, and exploring within ourselves, and sharing with one another.

• Class runs: Virtually each month on the evening of the New Moon
• Open to: All Genders, 18+

Poetry doesn't have to be long, complicated, or intimidating. Sometimes a few carefully chosen words can hold an entire story, a moment of wonder, or a truth waiting to be discovered.

In this Saturday afternoon generative workshop, we'll explore the power of writing small. Through guided prompts, accessible poetic forms, and opportunities for sharing, participants will experiment with brief writing that captures moments, images, and insights with clarity and care.Whether you're new to poetry or a seasoned writer, you'll leave with several small pieces and a renewed appreciation for how much meaning can live in just a few lines. No prior poetry experience required.

As Audre Lorde says, we need to “recognize and nurture the creative parts of each other without always understanding what will be created.” In this six-week circle, we’ll explore the creative parts of ourselves that are familiar and that are new, and get excited about what we might build together through creative community. Using writing and other crafts, we’ll dig deep to discover our own unique kinds of magic and self-expression.
