Now more than ever we need women to rise up and carry us forward. Evolution begins in the womb, and every single womb holder has a part to play in our collective growth.

Join Clare and Brenda in this Red Temple Podcast conversation about our seasonal womb archetypes and how they will lead us toward through the r-evolution.

It’s time to reclaim our hysteria - to reclaim our wild and feminine rage born from the sanctity of our life-giving wombs. Together, we can transmute this sacred rage into fuel for changing the world. Let’s get hysterical, sisters!

From crossover days to coronation days – celebrating the shifts in the phases of our menstrual cycle as sacred thresholds for transformation.

In the wake of the Solstices, amid the depths, we unpack the hierarchical system of dominance, control, oppression and conquest we term Patriarchy, and explore how we, as women, can help churn it back into the soil of our Mother to use as fertilizer for a New Earth, by reclaiming our power of menstruation and the living-giving sanctity of our wombs.

In this episode we explore how reclaiming our menstruation as a gateway to the dark, births roots of sovereignty, authority and power in our lives.
