embracing the mirror-self: honoring the FULL MOON IN GEMINI
As we draw closer to the Winter Solstice on December 21st, the murky shadows of our inner landscapes begin to surface with greater majesty against the backdrop of the deepening winter. Here is the time when the stars arise like emanating crystals at the cusp of a new dawn, and when our own deepest truths — perhaps shrouded in the folds of memory or our own purposeful un-knowing — begin to shine forward their own light from within the shadows.
At this full moon in Gemini, the last full moon of 2024, we celebrate both the multifaceted parts of being that enrich our essence from within, and our evolution toward stringing together these lights of self, just as the blazing stars carry their light across the winter skies. In this season, we gather in circle to release the limiting beliefs that hold us back from embracing the deepening web of self, and reach out to our reflections as we draw the “image in the mirror,” the twin of Gemini, into our hearts.
Carefully curated by Rosie and Sephora of The Mystic Rose Studios, this journey will unfold as a voyage through the energetic field of our souls, including an intimate sharing circle centered on the astrological movements of the moment and what they mean for us; an archetypal oracle reading; and an exquisite soundbath coupled with breathing exercises to support release and integration within the nervous system.
This experience will be held in person at The Mystic Rose Apothecary and Spa in Big Bear Lake. To preserve the intimacy of the circle, space is limited. Energy exchange $45 with scholarships available. Save your spot by registering here.
Wheel of Woman Magic: Feminine Archetypes in the Tarot and the seasons of womanhood
The cycles of womanhood mirror the arc of seasons from spring (maiden), to summer (mother), to fall (mage), and finally to winter (crone).
As women, we may already feel this deep, inexplicable attunement with the rhythms of our universal mother, the natural world. Noticing this connection, we are called to wonder…
How is our experience as women reflected in these seasons of nature?
What can we learn, and how might we connect more intentionally, with the wisdom of each stage in the cycle?
In what ways can we understand our wombs as a wellspring of insight as we navigate these changes in our bodies over time?
Helping to guide us along the way will be the wisdom of the Tarot, an ancient instrument of divination possessing rich insight into myriad avenues of esoteric inquiry. Experiencing women’s cycles through the teachings of their archetypes in the Tarot, we will begin to knit together a more profound intimacy with the seasons of our bodies, our wombs, and our magic.
To preserve the intimacy of the group, space is limited to six. Energy exchange $88. Sign up to join our circle.

Working with Eclipse Energies - A Circle Gathering
Eclipses are times of revolution. Times when the usual, natural order of things are invited to shift course and move in a new direction.
You may have already begun to feel this pull toward actualizing a path of greater risk - as well as potential reward - at the lunar eclipse in Pisces on September 17th, which corresponded with a super-full moon that summoned the powers of watery Neptune and Uranus, a force of surprises.
Circling to the solar eclipse of October 4th in Libra, we will build on the prophecies of your soul that may have already begun to reveal themselves. Gathering together, we will seek to bring forward the essence of balance, clarity, and truth in this energetic pendulation.
There is no time like the present to live in your fullest light. There is no day like today to bring intention to the irrefutable beacon of inspiration that calls you toward a new manifestation of yourself.

New Moon in Virgo: Visioning our Well of being
New moons are a season of awakening to our dreams. Calling forth the virbrancy of our visions from the dark places in the sky’s canvas, we similarly draw back the curtain on our desires and entrust them to lead us on a journey of discovery: what we hope for, what we wish for, what we yearn for.
Entering the night of a new moon in the sign of Virgo, the mystical mother of the Zodiac and graceful priestess of enlightened and sacred design, we are being asked to connect with our passion as a cosmically generative map toward fulfillment of what it means to live well. Where can we turn mental clutter into magesterial constellations of insight? What dusty and deadened commitments can be woven into newly fashioned intentions? What are the ways we can reach into the hearts of our deepest, most authentic self to hear the voice of loving reassurance - and reason - in claiming the path to the future that is already ours?
As we gather together in circle, we will work with these new moon energies of Virgo to mutually guide and support one another’s journeys toward crafting a vibrant roadmap toward the life that is already yours: a life lived well.
BY THE LIGHT OF THE SOLSTICE AT THE FULL BUCK MOON IN CAPRICORN
Capricorn, represented by the Seagoat, swiftly shepherds us toward the beaming apex of sun and moon in the Northern Hemisphere as they dance together in the celestial skies above between June 20th and 21st. Cresting the conclusion of Gemini season as well, these twinned energies of the season beckon to the enigmatic sway of light and dark that breathes mysterious life into our souls, and braids our beings together with the Styx and the Stars at the same time.
As we gather together in circle, we will draw upon these complementary energies of sun and moon to mine the depths of their meaning in our lives at this time, calling upon the wisdom of light and dark to surface the potent magick that offers insight and guidance as we step through thresholds of awakening.
This experience will be held in person at The Mystic Rose Studios. To preserve the intimacy of the circle, space is limited. Energy exchange $44. Save your spot by registering here.

Maiden | Mother: AN ONLINE WORKSHOP TO INTEGRATE YOUR WOMB WISDOM ACROSS SEASONS OF WOMANHOOD
Spanning five consecutive weeks in May, our intimate group of new mothers will gather to explore the transformative experience of evolving from "Maiden" to "Mother" in the cycle of womanhood.
Often misunderstood - or unacknowledged entirely - the evolution of our feminine, sensual beings from that of a "maiden," spanning the years from first menses to a womb-space mature in its generative power, to a "mother," following the period of childbearing years, heralds a radical transformation in self-knowing that is frequently left unintegrated.
Five sessions of 90 minutes each on the following Wednesdays from 4-5:30 pm PT / 7-8:30 ET: May 1, May 8, May 15, May 22, May 29th.
To preserve the intimacy of the group, space is limited to five. Energy exchange $333. Sign up to join our circle.

EMERGING BY THE LIGHT OF THE FULL MOON IN SCORPIO
Full moons are generally opportunities to release, allowing yourself to shed what no longer serves or birth what you may have been carrying privately for weeks, months, or perhaps even years.
Falling in the watery sign of Scorpio, typified by the animalistic energies of the shape-shifting asp and fiery flight of the phoenix rising from ash, the April full moon invites a moment of fanning our feathers, exfoliating the winter chill from our bones, and reveling in the bright light of all that is ready to released from shadow.
As we gather together in circle, we will ritualize the blossoming of spring in our spirits, gently release the parts of our persons that are ready to be left behind us on the path of life, and feel into the season of renewal.

Filling our Cups: new Moon in Aquarius (ONLINE)
The new moon is a time to plant new seeds, set new intentions, and revel in the dark night of sky that offers us an open canvas for painting all of our dreams. Stars burn brighter, sailing across the sky of sacred dream time and offering an invitation to take the brush of our vision and manifest it as reality.
Falling in the sign of Aquarius, only one week after the sacred season of Imbolc, we are called to ask how we wish to be of service to the world; the ways in which we hope to connect with those that we love; bring forward the fierce fire of our individuality; and burn brightly with the sacred source of our own knowing.

A Time To Release, Restore, And Regrow - A Special Two-part Circle Ceremony
Nearly two weeks into the onset of 2024, we are greeted with a starlit sky against a velvet black night at the budding of a new moon in Capricorn. Spiritually and energetically, new moons are a time of sowing seeds of intention—literally laying the groundwork for the harvest we aspire to reap in the months to come.
Having released all that no longer serves two weeks earlier at the full moon in Cancer, and having taken time to draw inward at the turning of the moon cycle in Cancer over the dark days of winter, at the new moon dark becomes a fecund canvas of possibility to (re)imagine all that you aspire to create in the coming seasons of 2024.
Capricorn, an Earth sign, supports this energy with a “get shit done” attitude: the sea goat invites you to believe in your vision, lay out your map, and fearlessly embark upon the dream you dare to make a reality.
As we gather together in circle, we will call forth our vision in ceremony and partner with the forces of the fates in carrying into the world our boldest, most beautiful vision of what is yet-to-be.
This Circle Gathering is Part II of a special two-part series. All gatherings will be held in person at The Mystic Rose in Big Bear Lake, California. To preserve the intimacy of the experience, space is limited. Join us by signing up through The Mystic Rose website, here.
$30 for one circle, $50 if pre-registering for two.

A Time To Release, Restore, And Regrow - A Special Two-part Ceremony
As the Gregorian calendar draws to a close for the 2,023rd time in the common era, we are graced with a full moon in Cancer, symbolized by a crab, on December 26th.
Cancer, a sign that basks in the wisdom of our inner knowing, invites us to draw upon the wisdom of our heart’s compass to hear the voice of our deepest truth. Encouraging potent insights that emerge from solitude, at the time of a full moon — typically associated with completion and release — we are guided to ask ourselves: what am I ready to leave behind?
Gathering together in circle on the heels of the Winter Solstice, the darkest day of the year, we summon upon the energies of the full moon to ritualize a profound practice of letting go: surrendering the energies, stories, experiences, expectations, and beliefs of the previous twelve months that we are ready to allow ourselves to let go.
Clearing this path, we prepare to enter “the crab’s cave” of winter rest as we look ahead to the turning of the sun toward another horizon and prepare the ground of our lives for a new cycle of growth in the new year.
This Circle Gathering is Part I of a special two-part series. All gatherings will be held in person at The Mystic Rose in Big Bear Lake, California. To preserve the intimacy of the experience, space is limited. Join us by signing up through The Mystic Rose, here.
$30 for one circle, $50 if pre-registering for two.
Surrendering in Solstice - Divination Drop-In
Welcome the winter solstice by embracing the shortest day of the year, and the longest night, as the broadest canvas on which to paint your dreams for the year ahead.
What do you hope for? What do you keep close but wish to release? What is calling to you as one year comes to a close, and a new one beckons beyond the cusp of December 31st?
Gathering up the energy of the wheel of time as it turns a new corner, The Mystic Rose and Arts of Ixchel invite all seekers to drop-in for an evening of divination, ceremony, and community. 20-minute tarot readings will be on offer to answer your deepest questions or to help you find words to articulate the question that you wish to live.
This event is being held in person at The Mystic Rose in Big Bear Lake, California. RSVP or pre-register for a tarot reading on The Mystic Rose website, here.
Partial lunar eclipse in Taurus
Eclipses are times of revolution. Times when the usual, natural order of things are invited to shift course and move in a new direction.
In the sign of Scorpio, which is often signified by the image of the phoenix - a burning light of resurrection and creative potency - this eclipse could offer a sudden creative awakening that bursts forth from the ashes of intentional channel clearing. What needs to be released in order for a new chapter to sow seeds of your highest ideals and most imaginative dreams?
This eclipse offers strong energetic support to embrace the forces that are inviting you to chance course, take a leap, and make way for visions to become a living dream.

full moon in Aries
Aries is a powerful sign of fire - igniting our spirits with tinder for transformation and sparks of life ready to take flight as a phoenix of light.
Full moons, meanwhile, are full of potentiality through acts of “clearing”: bringing us home to the truth of what must be released in order to make space for what yearns to grow.
As we gather together in circle, we will ritualize harnessing the power of fire to clear space for the seeds we wish to sow.
