THE Sacred Feminine It is a philosophy that seeks to connect us with our feminine consciousness and nature, accessing the Goddess figure that exists in every woman.
Its knowledge and practice have ancient origins, as it is made up of traditions from different cultures that involve knowledge about female bodies, their natural cycles (such as menstruation, pregnancy) and emotional processes.

Currently, this philosophy has gained strength among girls and women of different generations due to the growing demand for holistic and natural wisdom. Thus, through understanding the Sacred, it is proposed to achieve a better quality of life in all spheres: physical, psychic, emotional and spiritual.
One of the most common pillars of the traditions of this lifestyle are the “women’s circles”.
These are groups that bring together women of different ages to perform circular dances (sacred dances), share learnings and experiences, and perform rituals and spiritual practices. These usually take place once a month, to varying degrees.

Meetings usually have a facilitator who will guide the group. The objective of the meetings is to recover the knowledge of the feminine that exists within us and in the collective, to understand, respect and honor our phases, as well as to connect with nature.
Furthermore, it is very common for figures of “goddesses” within the Sacred.
They are women/images of the feminine in different cultures, such as Aphrodite, Yemanja, Isis, Gaia (Nature), among others, used to awaken the knowledge of the Goddess that exists in every woman and access ancestral feminine wisdom.
Hence the connection between female cycles and nature. Through encounters between women, it is possible to better understand the relationship between nature and our bodies. For example, how the phases of the moon can influence menstruation, mood swings and energy, as well as hair growth.
Through these dialogues it is also possible to question and rethink choices naturalized by society, such as the massive use of contraceptives, often without considering other means of contraception.
The aim of recovering and applying this knowledge with other women is to create a more loving and healthy understanding of our femininity. Such networks enable deep connections and reinterpretations of taboos about the body, sexuality, pain and personal and collective experiences.
