This free or by donation gathering is here for your joy, growth, healing and self-actualization. Circles are open to ~20 women each month and, though many folks return again and again, new faces appear often and are always welcome. Circles are always a reflection of the women that gather, but you can look forward to sharing and listening, ritual and ceremony, songs and meditations, and actively working to conjure our highest expressions of ourselves, heal our hurts, and accept radical responsibility for our precious lives and life force.

These gatherings are designed to connect, release, empower, create, manifest, and tap into the energy inherent in each of us. Participants can expect to share, listen, sing, pray, conjure, feel and breath, though coming with no expectations is best.

Arrival & Nourishment

• Arrival: 3:00–5:45 PM.
  You’re welcome to arrive anytime after 3:00 PM to commune with the land or one another, but please come fed or bring your own eats, along with whatever you need to consume and dispose of them.
• Snacks: If you delight in feeding the circle, bring true finger food only (no plates, bowls, mugs, utensils, knives, cutting boards, or clean-up required). Lay offerings out in the Mahal for circle.

Circle Time & Late Policy

• Moon Circle opens at 6:00 PM and is held in the Belly (Rootstock’s 30′ yurt) or, seasonally at one of the earth temples on the land.
• please do not arrive after 6:15 PM; Folks arriving later than 6:15pm should skip the circle and come another night as it can be disruptive to have late arrivals. Circle usually wraps between 9-9:15pm. Please plan to stay for the full gathering.

Facilitation & Participation

• Beana stewards this monthly circle and welcomes participation from attendees. Feel invited to bring a song, poem, instrument, or other simple offering and let Beana know upon arrival what you’ve brought to share. At times there are guest facilitators; if so, details will be shared in the event listing.

Moon Bath & Sauna (Optional)

• A Moon Bath & Sauna is available for a limited number of women after circle, 9:30–11:00 PM. This must be booked ahead of time; suggested donation $45/person. If you’ve booked, please bring a bathrobe, slip-on shoes, two towels, and a water bottle.

Stay the Night (Optional)

• Dormitory-style bunks, semi-private lofts, private cabins, and campsites can be booked for the night (subject to availability). Overnight guests are invited to a potluck breakfast on Sunday 8:00–10:00 AM, followed by a community work project, a beautiful, ongoing part of Moon Circle weekends.

Moon Circle is open to all women. Though this is not a space for children, we do welcome young women who have begun their moon cycle. If you’ll be bringing a young woman to the circle, please let us know ahead of time.

Financial contributions support the land, infrastructure, and space holder and are deeply appreciated.  Energetic exchanges of offerings for the Community Cabin, gratitude, love, work service, are also valued deeply.

Co-Crew Invitation

Many of you have met or experienced our Co-Creation Crew,  the steady presence helping to hold and tend the container of Moon Circle. These are the ones who formerly washed a million dishes and tried to keep Beana’s cabin clean, light candles, keep the hearth warm, shovel. paths, empty composting toilets, and gently weave the behind-the-scenes care that allows us all feel held in our time together.  Beana couldn’t host this epic circle without their generosity and help.

If you feel called to help tend the container, we’d love your support. Co-Crew shifts are simple, steady, and make a big difference.

Cancellations within 24 hours of our start time will not receive a refund. This gathering often has a waitlist so, please, do your best to provide ample notice if you can’t make it so somebody else may.  Folks on the waitlist will be notified if a space opens up and booking is first come, first serve.
