soul, chanting in a devotional language of her own. She is

Water, the Earth and the Inward Journey. She has been performing since 1994
both as a soloist and within various percussion ensembles. She has
been teaching the frame drum for the last 16 years. Discovering the frame
drum was a HOMECOMING when she first saw her late frame drum teacher Layne
Redmond 20 years ago.
She had the honor to study, assist and perform with Layne Redmond. Life
changing, she saw the importance of finding other women frame drummers and
initiated the social media pages for Women Frame

Layne.

PLEASE NOTE
Temple of the Goddess
has suspended all Thursday night meetings in 2015 (Full Moon, Moon Lodge,
Tantric Dance, and Shamanic Journeying) due to the sudden transitioning of
Priestess Kamala to the Other Side. I know all those who attended her Moon
Lodge, Tantric Dance Classes and/or any of the last two years of the
Temple's rituals will remember her as compassionate, creative, and
dedicated. Always thinking of others before herself, she will be forever
loved and always missed.
When the meetings
resume, we will announce them here and send out a general notice.
CENTER FOR AWAKENING
CONSCIOUSNESS: YALE HALL
690 E. Orange Grove Blvd. Pasadena, CA 91104
Participants MUST RSVP by the Tuesday
before the actual event. Call 626.765.7959 and leave a message containing
your name, the event which you want to attend, and a phone number and/or email address where you may be reached in case of cancellation. All classes
and circles are No Alcohol events.
Full Moon
Circle
(when the moon is in her bright phase) - Once a month,
 7:00
pm (the door locks at 7:30) to 10:00
Women, men, and children accustomed to
quiet ritual are welcome.
A small group gathering, casual with
an opportunity to participate in a deeper ritual than is possible at our
larger Sabbat rituals. After casting a circle, we briefly share where we are
in our lives, and have a communion of fruit juice and bread. We
often use divination tools to draw down that which we wish to bring into our
lives or release or trans- mute those things in our lives that no longer serve us as
they now are. Then we go on a guided journey. Afterward we discuss (if you
wish) your journey and usually have a physical activity to link the
journey to the real world (such as after a journey of the heart, we may cut
out paper hearts and write the names and communications of the people we have
met on the journey). After opening the circle we have some time to snack and
talk with like-minded Pagans.
Items To Bring: A notebook or journal
to record your experience, a personal sacred for the altar during the
ritual (if you wish), a small refreshment to share.
Facilitated by Pythia, Temple of the
Goddess priestess
Moon Lodge
(New Moon-the dark phase of the Moon) - Once a month, 7:00 pm (the
door locks at 7:30) to 10:00
Women only for this event.
As women, we gather to honor and
celebrate the Moon Mother and her cycles which we embody with her sacred
gift of rhythm and blood. Together we will celebrate stories of our own moontime, from our experiences of menarche to menopause. We will share
stories of Her ebb and flow, reconnecting ourselves with these divine and
timeless cycles. Our repose in this dreamtime within the safety of a circle
of sisters has the power to heal and reunite our deeper selves with the
natural world.
Dress comfortable and bring a comfy
pillow and blanket to snuggle in. Bring any sacred offerings you may wish to
share with the Goddess on Her Altar during the ritual. And a decadent snack
to share with your sisters.
Facilitated by Kamala, Temple of the
Goddess priestess
Shamanic Tantric Dance
Shamanic Tantric Dance
suspended.
Series of five classes - monthly. 7:00
pm (the door locks at 7:30) to 10:00
Women only class.
A series of five classes, Shamanic
Tantric Dance is a meditation in motion, a sacred dance spontaneously
sourced from body impulse. As each woman dances, movement following the
energy flow in her body, she is witnessed by the other women. No dance
experience needed. Just a desire to move to your unique power coursing
through your body.
In a Sacred Circle of Sisters, Come
Home to Your Authentic Self.
Facilitated by Kamala, Temple of the
Goddess priestess, and teacher/practitioner of Shamanic Tantric Dance; and
Rev. Xia, Temple of the Goddess Founder and priestess, and
teacher/practitioner of Shamanic Tantric Dance.

Shamanic Trance Meditation
Circle
 Women
& Men - 7:00 pm (door locks at 7:30) to 10:00
p.m.
This is not a "learn how to drum"
class, but deep meditation instruction. At these gatherings you will learn
something about Shamanistic history and what a Shaman does when she or he
moves into a trance and enters another reality. If you've wanted a different
way of meditating to "sort things out" then this might work for you.
We
will journey to the Lower World and meet
Power Animals and journey to the Upper World and meet with our Guides/Teachers. In addition to the trance work, the
meetings will discuss
various topics including:
* What is
Shamanic Trance Meditation
and where it has been in practice.
* Spirit Guides
& Power Animals - how to obtain one and what
they do for you.
* Relevancy of Shamanic Trance
Mediation in today's
world.
Class facilitated by Pythia, Temple of
the Goddess priestess, graduate of Michael Harner's Core Shamanic Workshop,
and practitioner of Shamanic Trance Drumming for over 24 years.
