| Boulder, Colorado Gathering
Submitted by: Sarah Hartzell of Circles
of Ten
In Boulder, we started with potluck dinner and networking.
Then we moved into a beautifully prepared ritual space for
dance and music and singing. When we sat in circle we asked
all to reflect on our wishes for ourselves and for the women
of the world. We wrote them on 3x5 cards then spoke them aloud
as we tucked them into a beautiful origami globe, made of
papers that have flowers and trees and moons and hills. The
globe went around the circle a second time as we wished for
each other, one woman to the next...it was quite awesome.
We're planning to share the globe through the year and take
it to different events.
Following are the wishes that were placed in the
globe:
-
True Health, overflowing compassion and complete peace
for all.

I dream of a world where women joyfully inhabit their
female bodies, knowing it is good and right to be a woman,
where women satisfy all their hungers.
I wish for all women to value their intuition softness
and grace as a force of creativity in this world.

Peace with ourselves. My dream is that the nurturing
quality that women possess will find a path from the individual
to each living thing that is touched by that woman. The
sense of being nurtured and loved will spread like wildfire
throughout the land, the sea and the universe. Then we
will surely know peace.

I am Kate, I wish for myself a deeper connection to the
feminine nature, to humble myself to her, I wish to serve
her resurrection on Earth and be shown the way. I wish
for the women of the world safety, honor, and self nurturing.
Pleasure in our bodies, joy in our hearts, and restful,
clear minds. So be it!
My dream is the creation of a retreat space where women
can discover and nourish their conscious femininity in
body and soul.

My wish is that we have made a difference, already, NOW,
in the present moment. And that the ripple of hope we
and our matrilineal ancestors have created will continue
to expand in numbers, strength and wisdom.

you that is us. We give thanks for your courage and listen

My deepest with is that we all realize we are all one.
And that one's vibration is raised to facilitate
the shift we are in. May this bring in and era of prosperity,
health and peace for all.

My Dream for Myself: To become the source of my own abundance
in my life as I become again the healer I have been in
many lifetimes....bringing connection to the earth
thru music, dance, ritual alive to the world once again.
For Women of the World: Union with one another and powerful
reclaiming of our wisdom, intuition and kick ass beauty.

My dream is for all the humans to disconnect from the
electronic nightmare video television mass media disease
machine and remember who we are, to prefer the green dripping
moss-strewn meadow where the gentle eye of the deer watches
us, re-learn the dance of awareness that can enable the
mending of our strand of the web of life.

The night I brought my first born home I was admiring
him in his bassinet- swaddled, warm, fed, safe. I was
suddenly overwhelmed with the thought that there are so
many babies who were not swaddled, warm, fed and safe.
I felt a penetrating pain for them and their mothers.
I was tapping in to a primal connection- to protect all
children, to be sure they are all safe, fed and warm.
It came to that night and will always be with me.

Imagine, as John Lennon said, a world where all being
are supported and encouraged to let our souls shine in
every thought word and deed. No hunger, no thirst, no
violence. This is my wish. Peace!

For myself and the women of the world I wish the courage
to love across borders and differences.
