On February 14, eight goddesses gathered to celebrate the energies of St. Valentine (patron saint of lovers), the first day of Chinese New Year (White Metal Tiger), and the New Moon in Aquarius.
Amidst pink candles, rose quartz, flower petals, golden bells, love knots and aphrodisiacs, participants experienced a 30 minute ritual of love goddess blessings, inner child healings and meditations.Emailed one happy participant after the event: "We wanted to thank you so much for such a lovely afternoon ... it was beautiful from the moment we arrived into the beautiful room, the rose petals, candles and the beautiful afternoon tea, and those delightful cupcakes!!! My girlfriend said it was the best Valentines she has ever had!! Same for me... it was definitely enjoyed by all... your friends are amazing it was so nice to see a room filled with so much love and talent!"
