Witches, Bitches, Mothers and Saints

Join us for an interactive event where we will explore the identities contained within the feminine. We will discuss how some labels have been used to suppress, simplify and control, while others are accepted and praised by society. We will consider how to reclaim all faces of the feminine power, and why this is necessary to combat historical and ongoing oppression and the challenges in our world today.

Together, we will reclaim the magic, spirituality, and power that have long been denied and misrepresented, and turn it into a force for transformation and liberation.

The schedule will include:

• Panel discussion on reclaiming feminine power with leaders and activists
• Premiere of “You Set me on Fire’ music video and discussion with award winning music artist Tess Posner (US) and acclaimed Director Coco Jackie (UK)
• Understanding the Cosmic Context with archetypal astrologer Rebecca Farrar
• Giveaways and opportunities for further connection and collaboration

25% of the proceeds will be donated to Not Our Native Daughters, a nonprofit working To end the trafficking, exploitation, and murder of Indigenous Persons through education, policy change, coalition-building.
