Greetings women warriors.
I write from Massachusetts on a chilly October night.
I wrote this summer about my unexplainable work of inner predator and prey and how we do that annihilation, judgment, criticism of ourselves on the inside, sometimes outside, however accidental. That was my warrior work. Now it is the autumn and my work focuses in November on organizing the 8th annual Women's Belly and Womb Conference. 100 women come dressed in red to honor that we have at some point or other as women bled together.
We raise up the Red Tent literally and enter sacred space together. There is drumming, singing, connection, community and truth telling. There is bellydancing, bellypainting, belly breathing, belly herbs, bellyaching and sharing our guts. From workshops, to our entire conference having a healing session, to celebration, to surprises, to a wisewomen's council and finally a women's dance we spend the day together in a way that often changes women in their core for the rest of the year. Our pre-conference class is with Sheri Winston, Maps of the Clitoris, the Truth about Female Anatomy!
This is my original vision of this~ and this is the way that I am a woman warrior.
Our world is calling women to be in our power, our gut-knowing, our truth right now. Women are aching for changes internally and externally. We are facing terrible destruction and disease and growing hardships. Many of us have already lived through inner and outer wars long before now. In spite of this we still long to be in our bodies, know our ecstasy, share our gifts and be present with life as life is occurring. In an unprecedented container, the Women's Belly and Womb Conference deliberately makes space for collective healing. It is not just a learning and informational day. It is a day to make new choices, to come out of denial, to recommit to our visions, our lives through loving our bodies and who we are in this world. It is an unforgettable moment in the life of a woman when she recognizes more of who she is and what is possible in her life. It is fertile ground for transformation. We make space for what needs healing in hearts, bellies, wombs and lives as women.
Just thought you'd like to know of such things to keep the visions swirling. I decided to do this from a vision that I received after my first firewalk many years ago. If you want to know more of this you can go to the website and I also posted something in our tribe under events. members.aol.com/alisastar/BellyConf.html
I am doing well. A little tired as all this women's work keeps me busy. I realize that 22 years of such a life has blessed me beyond measure. And I deserve to be tired! Blessings my sisters. For sure.

all look good
Mon, November 6, 2006 - 4:16 PMAll of the workshops, etc. listed on the site look wonderful. I need to start saving up sick days.
I volunteer at a couple of Women's events locally each year, so your stamina is an absolute marvel to me.
