Soulful Women’s Circles: Aligning with the Seasons & Cycles of Nature
Living in harmony with the seasons reminds us that we are deeply connected to the cycles of nature. As we align with spring’s awakening energy, we are invited to emerge, plant new intentions, and nurture the tender beginnings taking root within us. When we attune ourselves to the rhythms of the Earth, we find balance between rest and renewal, vision and action, patience and growth. Each of our circles supports us in recognizing the subtle stirrings of new life within and around us as we step into a season of possibility and expansion.
Each circle centers around a unique theme and a creative craft ritual inspired by the current season or zodiac cycle. These rituals anchor our intentions into the physical realm, creating space for clarity, growth, and inspired action. The craft becomes a meaningful symbol—a talisman of what we are cultivating, and a reminder to tend our dreams with care as the light returns and the days grow longer.
Together, we create a sacred space where sisterhood uplifts and empowers us, guiding us to welcome renewal, nourish what is emerging, and align with the vibrant cycles of transformation that spring so generously offers.
MARCH eARTH RYTHMS WORKSHOP – EARLY SPRING
Cottonwood Salve, Seed Sowing & Blessing
March 6th | Friday | 6–8pm
Early spring is a threshold moment, when the land is still quiet, but the promise of growth is already stirring beneath the surface. In this evening workshop, we’ll gather to work with cottonwood, seeds, and intention as a way to welcome the season ahead with care and presence.
Participants will learn about the medicinal properties of cottonwood buds and create a handcrafted cottonwood salve, traditionally used for skin support, muscle relief, and seasonal transitions. We’ll also craft a simple cottonwood rattle using natural materials, to aide us in awakening the earth.
The workshop continues with seed sowing and blessing, offering time to connect with the plants you’ll grow this season. We’ll explore how to choose seeds intentionally, seed starting soil blends, and take part in a gentle seed-blessing practice to anchor hopes, goals, and care for the garden ahead.
This workshop blends hands-on herbal making with quiet ritual and practical guidance, creating space to slow down, listen, and align with the emerging season.
No prior experience is required—just curiosity and a willingness to engage with the land in a meaningful way. Whether you are new to gardening and herbalism or have an established practice, this workshop offers tools, reflection, and connection to support the season ahead.
This workshop is open to all genders and offers a welcoming, inclusive space to create and learn together. Designed for adults, tweens, and teens; children ages 9–12 are welcome when accompanied by an adult.

Cost: $68 per person.

Through ritual, reflection, and seasonal making, participants will work with cottonwood in a variety of forms, such as herbal preparations, or nature-based objects for the home or garden.
Together, we’ll create space for grounding, renewal, and shared connection as we step into the growing season.

ABOUT WILD ROOTS CIRCLES
Our Moon Circles are held a different times of the moon phase.
Each circle has a theme that is inspired by the current zodiac sun sign, moon cycle or season.
Nature has a beautiful way of showing us how to live with grace. Nature works in cycles. A cycle of a seed, emergence, growth, action, expansion, fulfillment, letting it go and releasing. The amount of light in our days, shifts in seasons and moon cycles remind us that by syncing into our natural rhythms we can feel more alive and in tune. We hope that each circle provides a space to lean into your natural rhythm and celebrate where we are on nature’s every spinning wheel. We can find more balance and joy in life when we consider that there are times for rest and perfect times to bloom.
Clarissa Pinkola Estés (author of Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype) says it so brilliantly in this quote…“The psyches and souls of women also have their own cycles and seasons of doing and solitude, running and staying, being involved and being removed, questing and resting, creating and incubating, being of the world and returning to the soul-place.”
Each circle allows us to pause our busy lives and take an opportunity to assess what our soul is yearning for. It is our intention that each circle helps to raise our vibration and uplift our hearts as we take in the medicine of sisterhood.
CREATIVE RITUAL
In each circle gathering, we explore a theme or energy that relates to the current season or zodiac through crafting a creative ritual. The circle itself, is a community ritual and the creation of the art project or craft become a personal ceremony. The creator is asked to infuse their craft with their intentions using their intuition and inner guidance. The craft then becomes alive in the form of a talisman that serves as a physical reminder of dreams, wishes and healings that were called in during that this moon cycle and beyond.
Renee Beck who wrote the Art of Ritual says so perfectly "The purpose of ritual is to increase balance and connection within ourselves, with each other, with the world, and with the larger rhythms and energies that bring stability and light to our lives." - Renee Beck
“These circles of women around us weave invisible nets of love that carry us when we feel weak and sing with us when we are strong”
