TRADITIONAL SWEAT LODGE AND CIRCLE - BERRILEE SYDNEY NOV
About
We are very blessed with the opportunity to be immersed in 2 days of ceremony.
The weekend will be starting with a mens sweat lodge (Temazcal) on Saturday Morning and then on Sunday moving into the day ceremony for the women. In the morning we will be sitting in circle which also includes cacao and sharing food, then we move into the afternoon Temazcal. It is preferred and recommended to join both the circle and temazcal to get the most out of the experience.
Step into the sacred space of the Temazcal—a powerful ancestral ceremony of purification, renewal, and connection. Rooted in the ancient traditions of the Americas, the Temazcal is not just a sweat lodge; it is a rebirthing process, a place where we come together in prayer, in humility, and in deep respect for the elements that sustain life.
Guided by the Roots of the Earth Family, a global organization carrying these traditions across five continents, this ceremony is an opportunity to realign with your intentions, release what no longer serves you, and step forward with clarity and strength. Through the heat of the stones, the medicine of the songs, and the power of collective prayer, transformation happens—not just in the body, but in the heart and spirit.
This is for those seeking real change, for those ready to show up with sincerity, and for those called to remember the ways of their ancestors.
Alongside the Temazcal the womens circle and ceremony is potent and transformative...
This circle and temazcal is the fourth of a 4 series.
The theme for the fourth meeting:
🌿 SPIRITUAL BODY CIRCLE & TEMAZCAL
Circle and Temazcal - The Spiritual Body
This final gathering of the first edition of 13 Moons Sacred Women’s will focus on the spiritual body - the dimension that reminds us we are consciousness, creative force, and a bridge between the human and the divine.
Together, we will integrate the journey through the four bodies (physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual), honoring the transformation lived in each circle and temazcal. You will learn to connect with spirit as guidance and medicine, to recognize the power of intention and inner language, and to plant new realities from consciousness for the generations to come.
This closing is also a beginning: a sacred space of gratitude, release, and renewal, where life is remembered not as a weight but as a sacred dance
NOTE: Pregnant women can participate in sweat lodge from 4-5 months into pregnancy. Please reach out for support on this matter if you need it :)
