Why Earth Woman Rising?
You may want to deepen your understanding of feminine wisdom, seeking rhythms and insights to hold you amidst your day-to-day experiences. You may be searching for sisterhood and connection.
Or perhaps you hear a call for something more, an echo of ancient songs, a longing for what we once had.
facilitated by Jane Hardwicke Collings
Revolutionary Agent of the Goddess, Midwife, Grandmother and Founder of the School of Shamanic Womancraft, Jane is bringing this work to Europe for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sit in circle and dive into the art of Knowing Thyself.
Your Birthright, your ancient feminine wisdom is always there, intact and whole within you.
Unravel the negative patterns and stories that have shaped your rites of passage through womanhood, and access the tools and resources you need to navigate your life in a healed and empowered way.
We are excited to journey with you!

Earth Woman Rising offers a deep dive into the modality of Shamanic Womancraft. We take the main elements from our year-long Four Seasons Journey program and weave them together in this 8-day immersion.
Each day begins in circle, learning from ‘circle as shaman’ (attuning to the wisdom we co-create together, rather than any individual ‘shaman’ leader or ‘guru’), before exploring and practicing Shamanic Womancraft techniques and tools, anchoring your experience through craft and embodying your insights through ritual.

FAQs
