RedSeeds Classes
While each course has a unique focus, these values form the core of RedSeeds curriculum:- Connection with the earth is a human right, and is essential to the well-being of individuals and the planet
- Strengthening women to manifest their authentic wisdom can transform the current power paradigm that no longer serves the vast majority of human beings or the earth
- Sexuality is sacred, and is a potential source of liberation and healing when approached with self-loving and self-worth
- Ritual is a primary tool for creating deep, sustained relationship with spirituality that empowers individuals to care for themselves, their communities and the world

Finding Ceres: Goddess Theology, Food & Power
In Roman mythology Ceres is the Goddess of the Harvest. She represents our relationship with material wealth, food and eating, nurturance, and general abundance. Her astral body moves through the sky as an Asteroid and can be found in each person's natal chart, indicating how we can best tap in to the empowering and radical energy she radiates. In this interactive class we will explore feminist/goddess theology around the politics of food and power and the transformative ways we can care for ourselves and our planet. Co-taught with Holistic Nutrition Counselor Laura Smoot, this class is open to all ages, genders and levels of experience!

Womyn's Mysteries
This class offers an intensive exploration of goddess traditions that honor women's bodies and lives. Rites of passage rituals, meditation, hands-on healing, song and discussion circles will take us from menarche- first blood- into the deep connection between sexuality and spirituality. For women who have been longing for sisterhood, for the ancient circle where we share our secrets and celebrate our survival, this a place to come and open your heart. For women who have found the goddess long ago, who have created circles themselves, this a place to come and reconnect and add your important wisdom. All women welcome.

This class honors the teaching that building connection with the natural environment - even in urban environments like Philadelphia - benefits our own lives, our loved ones, and the planet. A great class for beginners interested in exploring earth-based spirituality!
