Introduction to the 2012 Mystery School, Thursday, February 2, 2012, 6:30pm - 9:00pm, Heritage Room. Dear Women of Earth, The time is now for our spirits to lead the way, for our ancient memories to rise up with truth and wisdom, and for all of us to create the New Earth into being. We know that within our human experience there are challenges which distract us from the purpose of our being here. We know that with quiet commitment to the calling of our spirits, we are able to clearly navigate this world and create the pathways necessary to bring about the world that we long for, dream for, and hope for. It starts with each one of us. It starts with following our own heart song, listening to our deepest voice, developing and nurturing an intimate connection with Divine and with ourselves as aspects of the Divine.
Join us as we experience sacred ceremony, guided meditation, and connection with the Great Mother through ancient ritual as we explore the calling of our souls. Information regarding the 2012 Mystery School will be offered so that you can determine if you would like to dedicate the year to your Spirit.
Cost: $25
For additional information or to register, please email Priestess Kim Macy at PriestessKim@yahoo.com or call (816)510-4391 for a Registration Form.

Temple of the Goddess 2012 Myster School, Initiation: The Circle Gathers, Saturday, Feburary 25, 2012, 1:00pm - 7:00pm, Heritage Room. The Temple of the Goddess Mystery School is an ongoing, personal, spiritual journey embracing the heart of your Soul's Light. This journey is ever-evolving and unique to each participant as you connect to your own Source-Self while consciously balancing the experience of the Earth Walk. Through the shamanic process of identifying Universal patterns woven throughout your life, you are able to make conscious choice to release imprints that no longer reflect your vibration, allowing you to fully embody all that you are and all that you are meant to be. Within the sacred container of the Mystery School, participants venture on the spiral journey to the center of their personal power and expression. Circles gather once a month for Spirit Journeys, teachings, ceremony, and women's wisdom. This is the only open circle in the 2012 Mystery School. Following this event, the circle will be closed and only women who have committed to the year-and-a-day experience will continue.
Preparation and pre-registration for this event is required. If you would like to participate, please contact Priestess Kim Macy at (816)510-4391 or email her at PriestessKim@yahoo.com
