Women of Vision and Action is sponsoring a historic week-long event beginning March 3, 2003. The week will culminate on March 8 with locally sponsored Gather the Women events around the world. We all know that humanity needs healing and we believe that healing will come about when the masculine and feminine energies on the planet are brought into balance. In gathering, we women are setting the stage to reawaken the divine feminine and generate the healing energy needed to support and empower all women to speak out and to take the collaborative actions necessary to create a balanced, harmonious and peaceful world. In this Sacred Global Retreat we will connect with one another, feel our own innate power and initiate collective actions worldwide to bring the planet into harmony and balance. From this gathering positive action will flow and everyone will benefit from the healing power of our unique expressions. The site includes a list of daily activities to help women prepare internally and energetically for the Gather the Women event on March 8; ideas on how you can volunteer your time and resources to the event; a Resources section; and some inspiring quotes from women around the world. | ||||||

MOONCIRCLES This website is the joint project of Dana Gerhardt (a professional astrologer, writer, and student of Buddhism) and Pythia Peay (a spirituality journalist, and student of astrology and Sufism), devoted to rituals and attunements honoring the cycles of the waxing and waning moon. We hope you will regard this space as your space. With the help of many moon lovers, we've seen MoonCircles grow as a cyber lunar temple, with more and more of us connecting to the moon's cycles and keeping attuned to the ever-changing ebb and flow, rise and fall of the times. Living and creating in harmonic rhythm with the moon -- musicians of time -- what magic we can bring! We update the astrological Welcome, Moon Meditations, and Season Teachings at each New Moon and offer a special Meditation for each Full Moon. The day's Moon sign, phase, and aspects are given in Today's Moon. And we invite you to share your own reflections with fellow members in the Talking Circle. If you'd like to receive email notifications of the New and Full Moons, register with us and we'll keep you in the lunar rhythm.

They are ready to take on the world. Being an Exceptional Woman is not about feminism; it’s about being yourself and being truly comfortable with that. It’s about claiming your place in the world and refusing to settle for an inauthentic life determined by who and what others think you should be. |

Nambudripad Allergy Elimination Technique Eliminates all types of allergy and related disease. Permanent allergy elimination promises to revolutionize the practice of medicine. The diagnosis of 'hidden' allergies, itself, is not revolutionary. However, the process of allergy desensitization is unique since it allows patients to live symbiotically with food and environmental allergens. Permanent allergy elimination technique retrains the central nervous system to be in contact with the known allergen without causing adverse reactions. Through the process of NAET, we can train our central nervous system to perceive all energies as beneficial to facilitate both energy flow and balance. |
