Hearthaven / Ananda Hrdaya Mata /Progressive Womens Spiritual Council\

Our Shop and womens art , healing and food collective Coming Up Roses in WIllow Springs is going through a transformation. With the presence and help of all of us and new energy of Jasmina and Emily , Anita and Camille , Kathy and other beloved sisters ,we are feeling this years support from Spirit and the divine Mother . We have many new crystals for sale , we started a Dauphin Island display , a native american display and the back room is becoming a sanctuary for the divine Mother as well as an altar for Turtle Woman. Every few months we will explore a new Goddess and her qualities in ourselves. We will have a display. These few months it will be Turtle Woman, reminding us to move in our own rythm, listening to our body and inner guidance.

It's turtle season here in Mid-Missouri! Three-Toed box turtles are coming out and using their homing instincts to return to their nesting grounds. We celebrate this event with a hark back to the first Goddess Gathering at Hearthaven / Ananda Hrdaya Mata /Progressive Womens Spiritual Council\: In 1996, Hearthaven began a Women’s Gathering to reclaim the Goddess as a primary focus for worship and self-exploration. For thousands of years, (75000 years) before patriarchy, Goddes...ses were featured as spiritual and social role models for many cultures worldwide. The balance between masculine and feminine values have been lost. It is the mission of the Progressive Women’s Spiritual Council to teach about these goddesses and their attributes so that she can rise again and resume her place as a prominent figure in culture. Through the season, we will swim with, and explore what it feels like to embody the turtle. #turtle #goddess #divinefeminine #turtlewisdom #quanyin #turtlearchetype #archetypes #goddessarchetypes See more

UPDATE and NEWS: Attached to our meditation building Ananda Jyoti, Shivanii Ma is building a sunroom, (next to her room ) for massages and also for eventual Air...bandb for women. We are exploring the idea of offering airbandb for women at Hearthaven as a source of income for the future. The sunroom looks wonderful and Nate Smith is doing a great job building it. We are very excited about the posibilities. See more
