SACRED FEMININE COMMUNITY
While it’s true that humans are more globally connected than ever, in many ways we’ve never been more isolated. We’ve also become detached from our natural world and its inherent rhythms. These losses have left us longing for meaningful connection— to ourselves, to each other, to our Earth, and to what lies beyond.
We can look to The Moon as a dependable presence that inspires reverence and, as we dive deeper into the ways humans have related to her throughout civilization, the invitation to remember how her cycle is mirrored in our bodies feels like cosmic validation.
Historically, the full moon was a time for women to gather in sacred circles to honor and embody the potent peak of lunar energy. This wisdom lives in us, and it’s time to illuminate it.
YOUR HOST, LISA PICCIRILLO
Long before I was conscious of her ancient allure, my relationship with The Moon began in childhood as I gazed up from the back seat of my parents’ car, comforted by how she seemed to follow along on our route. I have watched in wonder ever since, and welcomed her as a poetic presence in my life and in my artistic pursuits.
After losing my creative identity in early motherhood, I ached for a personal (r)evolution. Through my devotion to daily songwriting and sacred feminine spiritual practices, I remembered and reclaimed the parts of myself that I longed for and wove them into my latest body of work, with lunar wisdom at the center of my emotional tapestry.
The more I tended to my own creativity, the more I understood its miraculous effects as life force energy. And as I began to share this story of loss and reclamation with others, I became aware of its universality.
RADIATE FULL MOON CIRCLES
I believe RADIATE is more than a record. The concept came to me as a vision and dared me to step into my authentic expression so I could invite you to do the same, allowing the power of our collective creativity to ripple outward.
In 2026, I will be offering Full Moon Circles that center around the key themes of RADIATE, encouraging you to explore your unique experience of universal threads such as longing, identity, grief, anger, and desire. Each ceremonial event will be inspired by a particular song on the record, and aligned with the astrology of each month.
As your host, I will draw on my background in the fields of education and the arts, as well as my personal experience in sacred feminine community, and together we will cultivate a safe and welcoming space for self-expression, inner reflection, personal growth, and cooperative care.
IN-PERSON GATHERINGS in the heart of Vermont…
Our circles will be held at the STRONG HOUSE SPA in picturesque Quechee, VT. This women-owned business has been a staple of health and wellness in the Upper Valley for over 30 years and is home to a gorgeous barn, complete with radiant floors, beautiful acoustics, and ample space for group gatherings.

YOUR GUIDE TO OUR RADIATE FULL MOON CIRCLES
☆ WHO ARE THESE MOON CIRCLES FOR?
This safe and welcoming space, intended for adults, is open to cis and trans women, as well as non-binary folks who feel called to work with sacred feminine energy.
☆ WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?
After you arrive, you can stow your shoes and belongings in the coat area before proceeding upstairs to our sacred space and finding a seat around our central, candle-lit altar. At this time, we will keep conversation to a minimum as we begin to set our intentional collective energy with reverence. Our gathering will feel ceremonial and will include an alchemy of relaxing and restorative practices to help us connect with our breath, our inner worlds, and each other through music, guided visualization, and journaling. You may be invited to share what comes up for you during these practices, or bring in some gentle movement. Please dress expressively but comfortably, and be prepared to sit on the floor (if this is not accessible to you, a few chairs will be available). Your self-authority will be honored and you can choose how to participate based on your comfort level.
☆ WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
Please bring a pillow or cushion suitable for sitting on the floor, as well as your favorite journal/pen, and a water bottle. Your full presence will be encouraged and our sacred space will be a phone-free zone. We will also be collecting donations for The Haven which, though not mandatory, will be much appreciated if you are able to contribute; check the RSVP form for suggested items each month.
☆ HOW DO I GET THERE?
Take Exit 1 off of Interstate-89. Make a left at the stop sign onto Route 4 West and continue for approximately 1.5 miles. Make a right at Fat Hat Clothing Co. onto Quechee Main Street. Go to bottom of hill to the fork in the road where Dewey’s Mills Road intersects Quechee Main Street, and find the entrance to the parking lot on your left.
The Barn is located at the far end of the lot, with a covered walkway to the entrance. A restroom and coat area are available on the first floor, and we will gather in the studio on the second floor.
☆ IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?
You don’t need any previous experience in sacred feminine circles. Just come with an open heart…ready to listen, learn, and lean in to the magic of intentional gathering. If you have questions not answered here, please send a message to lisa [at] lisapiccirillo [dot] com
