A gentle place to belong, moon after moon

Women’s Circles

A live circle at every full moon and new moon, about every fortnight, in English or in French. Not another course to finish, but a place to keep coming home to. Come to one circle, or come back moon after moon.

Live only: circles are not recorded, to protect the intimacy of the space. What is shared in the room stays in the room.

You never have to speak. Arriving, listening and leaving again is a full way to be in a circle.

The English Circle

For women who feel most themselves in English. Every full moon and new moon, 7pm UK time: a live 60-minute circle, opening with a short guided meditation, then space to speak and be heard.

The French Circle

For women who feel most themselves in French. Every full moon and new moon, 7pm Paris time: a live 60-minute circle in French, opening with a short guided meditation, then space to speak and be heard.

The rhythm of the moon

Two moons, two kinds of circle

We meet twice in each cycle, and each circle has its own feel. Tima opens with a few words about the moon we are in, and what it can mean for the season you are in.

You do not need to know anything about the moon, or believe anything in particular, to feel at home here. It is simply a steady rhythm to come back to, twice a month.

What a circle holds

  • A live 60-minute circle, held by Tima, opening with a short guided meditation
  • Space to speak and be heard, or simply to listen
  • A small room: circles are capped, so you will never be one of hundreds

£15 a circle, or £11 for Sanctuary members at the full moon (their new moon circle is included). Live only, never recorded.

Who this is for

A circle is for you if...

  • You want to be among women who understand, without having to perform.
  • You are looking for a steady, gentle rhythm rather than another course to finish.
  • You want to belong to a circle of women, at your own pace.
  • You value a regular live ritual to keep coming back to.
  • You would like a home in English or in French.
  • You want to try one circle before you decide anything.
No pressure

Gentle to join, gentle to stay

Come to one circle and see how it feels. Sanctuary members come to the new moon circle as part of their membership, and pay £11 instead of £15 at the full moon.

If you are new to Women Align & Shine, a workshop is a lovely first hour before you join a circle.
