Celestial Earth Priestess Process™

Awakening the Celestial Earth Priestess

"Let the angels sing. Let our hearts open wide. Let the Goddess know that we're on her side. Know that we're together and draw strength from the tribe. The magic and the mystery makes us whole inside…." Wendy Grace &Chris James

As above, so below.
As within, so without.
As the Circle, so the Self.

A six-weekend psycho-spiritual empowerment process for awakening the Divine power of the Feminine

Overview of the Series
This 9 month process comes though the lineage of Nicole Christine, author of Temple of the Living Earth and creatrix of Celestial Earth Center in Tucson, Arizona. Her inspiration comes from the Our Lady of Guadalupe, previously known as the Goddess Tonantzin.

The Celestial Earth Priestess Process™ fully awakens, enlivens and integrates a woman's inner priestess to her own unique Sacred Work. Now, at this time of great change, when the Divine Feminine is returning to the planet, women are called to participate in the healing of ourselves and our planet at the highest levels. Priestess Circles empower women to walk in the underworld of their own fears to gain power, playful passion, magnetism and the ability to manifest their heart's deepest desires. Awakening priestesses learn to walk the feminine path of self-care, inner wisdom, inner beauty and Sacred Sexuality.

Each Woman will align with her own inner spiritual authority to discover the ancient and future wisdom that are relevant to her own soul's calling.

Special Introductory Weekend
The Sacred Circle as Self and The New Priestess

This weekend is designed to allow women to experience the Celestial Earth Priestess Process™ before commitment to the nine month journey. We explore the ancient future roles of the Priestess as Guardian of the Universal Mysteries and encourage this archetype to guide our process. We connect with the Divine Feminine within ourselves and the circle of women, recognizing the spark each woman carries. Through music, movement, journaling, and sharing we dive deeply into personal truths and prepare for the birth of our Priestess Self. This weekend includes:

· An orientation to the overall process and explanation of what it means to be a Priestess in these times, merging Ancient Wisdom with current consciousness.
· An introduction to the Sacred Directions and the Elements of Earth, Fire, Water, and Air.
· A Rites of Passage Ceremony exploring Moon Mysteries of Women.

Journey into the South
The Physical Realm, the Child and the Element of Earth

We retrieve the wisdom our souls carry through a guided meditation and become acquainted with the Priestess knowledge of past, present, and future. We examine the paths of our many lifetimes, entering into an altered state through meditation to honor and celebrate our journey. Each woman will participate in a sacred foot washing ceremony, gently blessing the path each woman has taken to bring her fully into the present.

We will hand-craft intention statements written by our Higher Selves, discovering the vision that will carry us through our deeply transforming work.

We acknowledge and dance with the Shadow Self and how it affects relationships between women. Embracing the Shadow between women, we create relationships of Truth that provide unconditional support for the circle. Bringing the Shadow into Light, we discover how to work with that which we fear most. We name and face our fears with each other within and without the circle.

Journey into the West
The Emotional Realm, the Maiden and the Element of Water

Our Journey into the West brings forth the watery and powerful realm of emotions. Native Americans believe that the West holds the power of the ThunderBeings, indeed, it is the direction that Power comes from. We access this inner strength through our personal stories. Each woman carries within her the story of her spiritual journey. From the beginning of our lives, circumstances and occurrences create the framework for our own spiritual understanding. These circumstances challenge us to stretch and grow beyond what we thought was possible. Diving deeply into our past, we look at the people, places, and experiences that offer us specific wisdom, creating the medicine that we carry. We listen carefully to the child within and tell her story. We embrace the emotion of being female and bring the power of our pain into healing space. Gather support from your sisters and know that you will be heard, held, and honored.

Journey into the North
The Spiritual Realm, the Mother and the Element of Air

The Archetypes and our Sacred Marriage

At the time of Birth, the stars play in the sky in a pattern specific to each individual. This star pattern provides the map of the soul's life purpose and highest intention. In this weekend, we are introduced to Shamanic Astrology and the work of Daniel Giamario & Carolyn Brent to connect with our inner feminine and masculine, uncovering the powerful archetype that supports our soul path. What did we come here to do? What tribe do we align with? What is our lineage? We will find support in the archetypes present in the star signs.

We co-create our Sacred Marriage of the inner feminine and masculine, bringing them into balance and harmony. We find that we carry the power of the female and the male within and discover the wholeness that has always been.

What is Shamanic Astrology?

Journey into the East
The Mental Realm, the Crone and the Element of Fire
Death and Rebirth is that ever changing process that allows us to continually create ourselves anew in order to expand our Sacred Circle of Self. We must be willing to let the old "self" die to allow the birth of the new. We stand at the threshold of Life and Death, consciously choosing to allow that which no longer serves us to die. We enter the Shamanic Death Journey as we Dance into the Fire, releasing old patterns, old belief systems, and old burdens to the power of transformation.Travel between the worlds to say good-by to our old selves and Old Earth. Call forth a vision of the New Priestess and her highest destiny, and co-creatively rebirth in to New Celestial Earth.

We prepare for our Conscious Rebirth, creating powerful ceremony within the circle of women to honor this New Life.

Begin the preparation for Emergence.

Journey into the Center
The Rainbow Realm, Spirit, Integration and Wholeness
We will create a Rainbow Bridge and integrate our 9 month process. We will spend our time remembering, journaling, sharing, and plan our Emergence Ceremony. We celebrate the true birth of the Priestess within each woman during a public Emergence Ceremony. This ceremony is co-created by the circle and allows an opportunity for our supporters and loved ones to share in this celebration.
