For the woman who has done the inner work. Feels the larger call, and who knows she can no longer stay at the edges of what she is here for

Something is shifting. Not just personally. Collectively. And many women can feel it

The women who feel this most deeply are those who have already spent years developing awareness, untangling old patterns, refining their gifts and walking a conscious path.

 

And yet many now find themselves standing at a threshold that feels different from the ones that came before.

 

Not another layer of self-improvement. Not another identity to step into.

 

But something quieter.

 

Older.

 

More real.

 

Perhaps the longing so many women feel now isn't for another version of themselves, but for more of who they've always been.

As I've been sitting with this gathering, one image has kept returning to me.

 

It's the image of a shattered mirror. Not broken. Shattered.

 

A mirror that once reflected the fullness of who we are. Each fragment gradually forgetting it belonged to something greater. And perhaps that's why so many women feel a longing they can't quite name.

 

Not because something is missing, but because something - our wholnesss before the fragmentation-  is beginning to be remembered.

Why Now?

For thousands of years, Gaia has held what humanity could not.

The grief, the fear, the separation, the emotional weight of forgetting who we truly are.

In order for what’s next to take place, that needs to change.

What if part of becoming whole is learning to stand beside the Mother, rather than asking her to carry what belongs to us? What if gathering our fragments is not only for our own freedom, but also for hers?

Perhaps the next stage of our evolution isn’t simply personal. It’s relational.

Instead of asking the Mother to hold everything for us, we stand beside her, holding her hand as a companion in her birth process.

 

Not trying to birth what comes next for her, but becoming whole enough to walk alongside her as she does.

 

Perhaps, just perhaps, that is what is being asked of us now.

If this resonates please join us below.

What becomes possible when a woman remembers her wholeness

This gathering is for women who...

Have walked a conscious path for years and feel a threshold emerging that is unlike the ones before it

 

Know they are here to change something, and are ready to stop standing at the edges of that knowing

 

Have moved beyond spiritual identity and self-improvement, and feel something older, quieter and more real calling them forward

 

Carry a love for the Earth that goes beyond reverence, a sense that their wholeness and hers are connected

 

Feel the collective shift and know their full presence is part of what is needed now

Why Avebury,
Why November ... 

November is a threshold time.

The land turns inward. The noise softens.
 

What is unnecessary begins to fall away.

And in places like Avebury, something becomes easier to hear.

Avebury is not simply a sacred site.

 

For many women it feels alive. Ancient. Listening.

​​​​

A place that reminds us that we belong to 

something much larger than ourselves.

As I've sat with this work, what keeps returning is a simple image.

 

A daughter reaching for the hand of her mother.

 

Not because she is lost or needs rescuing

 

But because she is finally ready to walk beside her.

 

For thousands of years Gaia has held what humanity could not.

Every fragment of the mirror that returns to wholeness relieves a little of what she has carried on our behalf. Together, they create more space for both humanity and Gaia to evolve.

We are not coming here to escape life. We are coming here to remember who we are, so that we can help create what comes next.

 

To walk with the Mother as new possibilities begin to take form through us, around us and between us.

If you feel the call, trust it.

Accommodation & Travel in and around Avebury 

Where to Stay

​Accommodation within Avebury itself is limited but there are a small number of places to stay in and around the village, including nearby Avebury Trusloe and Winterbourne Monkton.

You can find some information below to help with finding accomodation and transport connections if the area is new to you. 

** There is also the opportunity to reserve a room at a B&B in Trusloe Avebury which is in walking distance to the venue. The B&B isn't being advertised online for the weekend we are in Avebury but will open if a number of women are interested.  You can find out more by contacting Vicky on 07857 248848

​​

Marlborough

 

Approximately 15 minutes from Avebury.

A beautiful historic market town with independent shops, cafés, restaurants and a warm, lively atmosphere. Marlborough is often a popular choice for women attending gatherings in the area as it offers a lovely balance between comfort and countryside.

Devizes

 

Approximately 20–25 minutes from Avebury.

A quieter and more traditional Wiltshire market town surrounded by countryside and canals, with a slower and more relaxed feel.

The surrounding countryside

The villages and countryside around Avebury are scattered with cottages, farm stays and smaller countryside accommodation options. Areas such as Lockeridge, Broad Hinton and the villages surrounding Marlborough can offer a quieter retreat-like experience while still remaining close to the gathering.

 

Travel Connections

By train

The nearest mainline station is Swindon, with direct trains from London Paddington and other major routes. From Swindon, Avebury can be reached by taxi or local bus services.

 

By bus

There are local bus connections between Swindon, Marlborough, Devizes and Avebury, although services can be limited, particularly in the evenings and on weekends, so we recommend checking timetables carefully in advance. If you are staying outside Avebury and need a lift do mention it to Stella and we will do our best to arrange for one of the other women to give you a lift.

By car

Avebury is easily accessible by road, with parking available within the village area at the National Trust carpark. Many women choose to drive or car share, particularly if staying in nearby towns or countryside locations.

 

I would​ recommend arranging accommodation and travel soon after registering, as autumn weekends in this area can become busy.
