Gathering of Circles in Poland - August 2012


International Gathering of Circles

23-26 August, 
Workshop Center in Kikow Celebration of Life and Planting the Visions for the Next Seven Generations 

Poland


Gathering is about us and circles from all around Europe so that we can get to know each other and celebrate our unique gifts and beauty, celebrate life, share knowledge about the circles and experiences and also strengthen existing circles as a new social structure into evolution from “ME” to “WE”.

During Gathering of Circles there will be present the Representatives of of the Turtle Island Grandmothers Council:  Susan Ka'iulani Stanton, Haudenausonee, Wolf Clan, Maori Grandmothers Te Rangimarie Waara, descendant of the people known as Te Iwi Oriori from whom the later name Ma-Ori is coined, Eila Maureen Paul from Ngati Tukorehe clan, Iwi tribe and Tangata Whenua (Maori) nation, Arapata Aiono, Grandfather Keya Wright, Cherokee who sits on the 28 Grandfather Council. 

 The purpose of the Gathering, which is the answer to prophecies from all around the world which says that when all races stand together in a circle with prayer, without judgment and in love, the world will be healed, is to provide an opportunity for like-minded people to come together and share the wisdom message carried by the Grandmothers. In an atmosphere of Ceremony and song, we will travel through the Past, Present, and into the Future, using Prophecies, Storytelling and Teachings from the Elders to mark the path.

During the Gathering the Moon Lodge will be created, under care of Patrycja Art and Kasia Barszczewska. It is an ancient tradition for women to gather in a sacred space during menstruation, pregnancy, birth and in times where we need silence and consolation. These spaces for women, awaya from everyday hustle existed in many cultures all over the world. You will find more information here. One of the elemnts of this Gathering will be birth process according to Elena Tonetti-Vladimirowa, led by Kasia Barszczewska.

If you have something to share, please feel free. The Gathering will depend on inspiration from its participants. If you have dreams that have been hidden it is time to set them free!!! During this time people will be asked to share some of the concerns of their Communities, their own lives and their families, that through the calling of the Sacred Circle and the dynamic of the collective Mind and Heart, solutions will arise that will address these issues. The work of the Circles will continue on long after the Gathering has completed; nurtured in the hearts and minds of those who attended, as they become attuned to the Message of the Grandmothers and with the greater purpose of why we are here, on this Earth, at this Time and carry it back into their daily walk.
