Enter the Priestess Temple
and meet The Great Mother
She who invites us to Surrender and Receive.
She who births, nourishes, and holds all life within Her vast embrace.
This is the spiral path of the Goddess,
a journey of REMEMBERING Her presence within us.
Through ceremony, guided meditation, breath, ritual and embodiment practices we’ll soften into the field of the Great Mother’s unconditional Love.
Experience deep rest, nourishment, and emotional renewal
Reconnect with your body’s wisdom and inner guidance
Build heart-centered connection within a supportive circle of women
No experience needed.
Come as you are.
Bring your presence, your heart, your curiosity.
Who is the Great Mother?
She is the Source of all life.
Her love is the ground from which all creation arises.
The Great Mother, the first face of the Goddess, invites us back into the eternal embrace of unconditional love. She lives in the pulse of our breath, the softness of our belly, the stillness that waits beneath all doing.
To remember Her is to remember ourselves. To remember our belonging, our worthiness, our capacity to receive and be held by Life itself.
Together, we’ll explore what it means to truly let go and to receive, not as an idea, but as a felt experience in the body.
The archetype of the Great Mother teaches us that….
When we surrender, we are received.
When we empty, we are filled.
When we let go, Love finds us.
Enter the temple.
Come rest in the arms of the Great Mother,
gather in community with other women,
remember that you are held, loved, and whole.
If you feel the stir within and a yearning for deeper connection,
come join the circle.
You are invited to wear something burgundy or dark red.
These sacred temple circles are rooted in the priestess lineage of the 13 Moon Mystery School, a path of embodied wisdom and inner union.

What to Expect
We begin by arriving together and entering into sacred space, allowing the noise of the outside world to fall away as we soften out of the thinking mind and into the body.
Through guided meditation, ritual, embodiment, archetypal exploration, and sacred feminine practices, you’ll be invited to rest into the field of the Great Mother, releasing what no longer serves, opening to receive, and reconnecting with the deep well of unconditional love that flows from within.
This is not about performance or perfection; it is about presence and belonging. You’ll be held in a field of reverence and authenticity, where every woman’s experience is honored. There is no hierarchy here, we gather as equals in the circle, each an expression of the Mother’s love.
After our time in ceremony, we’ll share a bowl of nourishing soup, grounding, integrating, and weaving what has moved through us in community.
Please book to reserve your place in the circle.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Archetypes are universal patterns or energies that live within all of us. They are expressions of the human experience that transcend time and culture. You might recognize ones such as the Maiden, Mother, Wise Woman, or Healer.
In temple space, we work with archetypes not as concepts, but as living energies that mirror aspects of ourselves we are ready to awaken or remember. They help us understand our inner landscape and reconnect with deeper layers of wisdom, love, and power.
Archetypal energy heals, catalyzes and transforms at a vibrational level of consciousness that goes far beyond what the mind can cognize.
-
Temple is a sacred space set apart from the noise of the everyday world. It’s a field of presence, reverence, and remembrance. It’s a sacred space where we move out of our ego/personality selves, listen deeply, and reconnect with the wisdom that lives within.
In the temple, we gather in circle as equals, guided by the archetypal field and the heart. It’s about returning to something ancient and deeply human and honoring life as sacred.
-
No experience is needed, just an open heart and a willingness to be present.
Temple space is not about learning something new or performing rituals “correctly.” It’s about remembering what your soul already knows. Everything is guided and held with care, so whether this is your first circle or you’ve sat in many, you’ll be met exactly where you are.

The 13 Moon Mystery School is a modern-day mystery school in the lineage of the Divine Feminine, founded by Ariel Spilsbury. It offers a path of remembrance, a return to wholeness through direct embodied experience of the sacred feminine in her many archetypal forms.
Rather than teaching from books or doctrine, this lineage invites women to awaken their own inner knowing through ceremony, devotion, and deep presence. The 13 archetypes, or “faces of the Goddess,” reflect different aspects of feminine wisdom and help us integrate shadow and light, reclaiming the fullness of who we are.
It is a journey of transformation that leads us home to the heart, to sovereignty, and to living as a conscious embodiment of love.
-
A priestess is a woman devoted to living in sacred relationship with life. She listens deeply to the rhythms of the Earth and the wisdom of her own heart, and she serves as a bridge between the seen and unseen, bringing the spiritual into everyday life through presence, ritual, and love.
Being a priestess is not a title or role to perform; it is a way of being. It’s a path of devotion, integrity, and embodiment, walking with awareness, honoring the cycles of nature, and guiding others to remember their own connection to the sacred.

The Sacred Temple Circle Experience
A Note from Charlotte
There is something incredible that happens when women come together in sacred circle. We remember. We remember the innate wisdom that lies within us, the unconditional love that flows from the well of our own being, and we remember we are not alone. That we are connected in the tapestry of life, and that each one of us holds a unique and beautiful thread that is here to be celebrated, loved and to shine brightly.
When you come to a sacred women’s circle with us, you are entering the temple. A priestess temple.
It is a space that is cohered to a certain frequency. When you enter, you feel it. It may be different to other women’s circles you have attended before. That is because in the priestess lineage we are working with frequency - sound, color, scent, geometry and archetypal energy, to support a transformational journey. These temple spaces become alchemical containers to help us see and transmute any places inside ourselves where we may be stuck, contracted, and not fully freed into Love.
When we gather in this way, it is an invitation to become more intimate with ourselves. We are immersing in the Mystery, in the wisdom that lies beyond the limitations of our ego mind. When we access these places inside ourselves we begin to tap into our authentic power and true freedom.
To sit in a sacred temple space with other women, to be witnessed, loved and held, is an honor and a gift to ourselves. It is nourishment at a deep soul level.
These monthly 2-3 hour temple experiences are a taster of a much deeper body of Mystery School work called the 13 Moon Mystery School. They are however no less powerful and the magic that can happen in 2 or 3 hours is potent! It would be my honor to have you join the circle.
