We had our first TMHP/Red Tent Temple gathering in Minneapolis, MN on January 16, 2010.
The next one will be on Saturday, February 13. New moon is on the 14th.

Red Tent Temple Movement includes groups in many parts of the world, all coming together on or around the new moon each month to allow for stillness, quiet togetherness, and reverence in women’s lives.
A quote from ALisa’s website:
“The Red Tent Temple Movement is a way for women to take our inner momentum, that feeling like the time is now and come forward with everything we are as women and give us a place to incubate, dream, slow down, and not have an agenda or plan. And simutaneously much is waiting for us in this not knowing place but we need to make time for the empty space. It is also not only empty space but woman space where we can share stories, laughter, songs, food and honor our unique cycles that we experience each month in our bleeding time and in our going through perimenopause and menopause.”
We started in the early evening with soup and unformed social/creative/quiet time and ended with a sharing circle, where each woman had an opportunity to introduce herself and share her thoughts on the Red Tent idea, or not.
Please
contact TMHP if you live in Minnesota and are interested, or if you have ideas, wish to help, or would like information on future gatherings.
Thank you!
