Join us in September 2021 at
Unicoi State Park in Helen GA!
The Galactic Gathering of Wise Women
We believe Divine Feminine energy is pouring on to the planet, and that all women’s wisdom is being brought forth as we are the ones we have been seeking. We believe that every voice matters and that the younger generation has much to share. We believe that mature wisdom brought from the grandmothers among us is vital and when many generations gather we are all enlivened and enlightened.
When women gather, amazing unforeseen things happen. We collectively create sacred space and find ways to heal our world and find solutions to our personal and global problems. The Galactic Gathering of Wise Women (formally known as the Global Goddess Gathering) is a 3-4 day experience that will inspire uplift and empower you.
There will be facilitated transformative and interactive presentations, sacred fire ceremonies, informal sky teachings, time in incredible nature, bonding, laughter, dancing and deep conversation with women of incredible heart who are all on a path of personal expansion and impacting their communities through their unique callings. All provided in a beautiful State Park with incredible service, food and surroundings.
Our Days at Unicoi State Park in 2020 were magical…
…. with a small group of women who safely and consciously gathered to understand all the ways we could contribute to solutions in our world. Women left refueled and reinvigorated that despite the challenges of 2020, we can and are creating New Earth. The energy was so profound that the women who came insisted we do it again in 2021, so other women could feel what they felt.
We are meeting again at Unicoi State Park in the North GA mountains September 16-19, 2021. Event times are Thursday, September 16, 2 EDT PM to Sunday, September 19, 1 PM EDT.
Unicoi is a 90-minute car ride from the Atlanta airport (Atlanta, GA is the closest airport to our event)
This prime autumnal season will create an incredible backdrop for an event themed *“She Who InVisions”*
