The
time is now...
...and Gather
the Women is your opportunity to join in a global movement to harness
the power and wisdom of women for the benefit of all life.
Gather the Women Is...
...much more than a single event or a single day to focus on women -- it is a
global movement and a structure that can support and connect women worldwide.
One aspect of Gather the Women is our focus on March 8 --
International Women's Day as declared by the United Nations. Many countries in
the world have a rich tradition of celebrating this day with a variety of events
to recognize and honor women. Gather the Women is a grassroots movement to build
more recognition and participation so this can truly be a global women's event,
to link the women participating through a unique interactive Internet website www.gatherthewomen.org
and to establish a unifying goal of creating purposeful action through each
event which can help to address the real problems facing our planet.
During the week of March 3-9, 2003 women around the
world (including Mystic Goddess) were invited to create thousands
of local, regional and national women's gatherings. Thousands of women heard the
call to participate in this global women's retreat by creating unique events
around the world. These events enabled women to
participate in a global conversation and to support one another in creating
positive change through collaborative action.
In 2004 our Gather the Women week will begin on Monday, March 8 and
culminate on Saturday and Sunday, March 13-14.
We encourage you to begin
planning to participate NOW.
One of the greatest gifts women bring to the world is their creativity, and we
encourage you to use this gift in producing a gathering that is right for you
and your community.
Some women will gather in quiet prayer in the context of
their faith; others will gather in large rallies to hear speeches and music.
Some will express their concern in public forums.
Some will gather for silent
vigils, quiet contemplation or conversation.
Some will include experiential
activities like music, movement, ritual or poetry. Some gatherings will be as
small as three women meeting in a home; others will be large and organized in
stadiums.
Each gathering will be unique and will reflect the values, skills and
interests of the women involved.
International Women's Day has been celebrated for almost 90 years.
The U.N. began sponsoring IWD in 1975.
At the very pivotal time in our history, women of the earth are being called to
bring balance to our leadership and peace to our world. We are experiencing this
call individually and collectively.
Here at Mystic Goddess and Temple of Mystic Light we
are gathering to
honor women and the Divine Feminine within.
We are welcoming
and encouraging men to come and support us as well as connect with their own
"feminine side".
We will have speakers, a labyrinth, live entertainment, author booksigning,
meditation, sacred fire, ceremony, and a "Wise Women Network" of
professionals offering services and information in our community.
"If ever the world sees a time when women shall come together purely and
simply for the benefit of mankind, it will be a power such as the world has
never known." Matthew Arnold, British Poet, 1822-1888.
And in the spirit of the Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya sisterhood
we invite
you to please wear Your YA-YA HAT!

Labyrinth:
Compliments of Denise Mueller of Inner Healings & Associates in Brandon
Walking the Sacred Path: Walking
the Labyrinth has reemerged today as a metaphor for the spiritual journey and a
powerful tool for transformation. This walking meditation is an archetype, a
mystical ritual found in all religious traditions. It quiets the mind and opens
the soul, evoking a feeling of wholeness.
Denise is a graduate of SunCoast
Center for Natural Health. She is certified in Swedish Massage and CoreMassage.
She is trained in NeuroMuscular Therapy, Dr. Chikly's Lymph Drainage, Dr
Vodder's Manual Lymph Drainage, Active Isolated Stretching: The Mattes Method.
Denise is also a certified Reiki Master/Teacher.
