Sacred Feminine Rites of Passage | The Red Tent
Remembering the wisdom of the womb.
The womb was once honoured by ancient civilisations (and still honoured in some cultures) as a sacred centre of creation and intuition, yet has been forgotten by our modern patriarchal-dominant world that has lost its reverence for the feminine.
The Red Tent is a return to the celebration of our creation power as women.
Women are cyclical beings, connected to the Earth, the seasons, and the moon.
Our blood is sacred; it carries the power to birth life, to renew, to cleanse, and to create. From the phases of Maiden to Motherhood, we bleed with the moon, thirteen times a year, just as the Earth turns through her own rhythms. In the phases after—Maga & Wise Elder— we cycle with the moon in other ways, carrying the wisdom of the wise woman in our voice, in our blood and in our bones.
Yet, in modern society, the feminine and her miraculous power have not been honoured or revered. Instead, she has been silenced and shamed. Many of us, myself included, hold or have held deep grief, shame and trauma in our wombs, spending so many years hiding our blood, silencing our pain, and passing through our rites of passage without ceremony.
Who was there to honour our first blood? Who was there to initiate us into motherhood? To celebrate our transition into menopause and wise elder?
These rites of passage have been forgotten, and instead, we wander this world isolated and not held in our sacredness.
It is time for the return of the sacred. It is time to reconnect with your power, no matter what phase of womanhood you are in.
It is through ceremony that we will reclaim reverence for the feminine and reconnect with our womb wisdom, so that we can remember the power that lives within us.
These are ceremonies of tenderness, connection, sisterhood, wisdom, truth, and remembrance.
Join us in the resurrection of Her-story.

Sacred Ceremonies for Women ✨
It is my intention to hold women in sacred spaces to honour the thresholds every woman journeys through — from menarche to maidenhood, from maiden to mother, from love to loss, from identity to rebirth. These are my offerings 💖

Grief was never meant to be carried alone. This powerful shared human experience—which we will all face in some way, shape or form—weighs heavily on our hearts.
However, when we come together to express this grief in a shared space, it can feel like less of a heavy weight to carry.
I hold monthly grief circles where women can connect, share, cry and hold one another through their grief.
We gather with one another in a sacred circle to alchemise our grief through storytelling and connection.

Through the alchemy of ceremonial cacao and mindfulness practice, I hold cacao ceremonies online and in Brisbane, Australia, that encourage introspection, inner healing, and spiritual connection.

In this sacred ceremony women are invited to evoke the parts of themselves that may have been silenced, shamed, and contained, waiting for a time it was safe enough to express them.
Together in a group, we will witness ourselves as both the the dark feminine and the light — the embodiment of Sekhmet, Hecate, Lilith, Kali, Mary Magdalene, Quan Yin — all who mirror the ever-transforming nature of the sacred feminine.
Coming Soon

The History of The Red Tent
Long before religious institutions and modern medical practices, women held sacred spaces for all matters of the womb. They bled together in dedicated gatherings, they birthed with other women, they mourned in ritual, and, together, celebrated each cycle of life, just like the moon, just like the earth.
Red Tents, sometimes called Moon Lodges, were places where women withdrew from daily life to rest, connect with the ancestral spirits, channel dream visions, and receive wisdom from the womb.
I first learned about this ancient practice in Anita Diamant’s book, The Red Tent - a first-person narrative that tells the story of Dinah, a character in the Christian Bible, and her perspective of life in that time through the lens of a woman. I then learned that these practices of womb-reverence appear across many civilisations throughout time, and have been suppressed by the modern-day patriarchy.
The book moved me deeply and ignited an ancient remembrance in me that relates to the inherent way of the feminine.
I now intend to be one among the many who will revive this sacred tradition so that women have safe, nourishing spaces where we can honour our bodies, the earth, and the unseen threads that connect us to our ancestors.
About your Guide ☥💫
I am a multidisciplinary mystic, initiated in sacred energy activation, meditation, and ceremonial healing. As a keeper of threshold spaces, I hold ceremonies as portals of remembrance and initiation, guiding others through the sacred work of healing, transformation, and returning to their soul truth.
What to expect in Ceremony?
Each ceremony is held with reverence and attuned to the needs of the group. It may include:
Opening cacao or herbal tea ritual
Womb meditation and energy clearing
Cycle awareness or first-blood storytelling
Blessing rituals (e.g., rose water, anointing, song)
Channelled Divine Mother energetic activation
Journaling, sharing, and integration
Sacred space setup (altar, symbols, candles, red fabrics)
My intention is that all souls remember their divinity and come home to who they truly are, without fear, hesitation or uncertainty. I believe freedom is our birthright, yet from a young age, we are made to feel limited in our sacredness. You are sacred. And I intend to help you remember.
A little more about why I do this…
When I bled for the first time, there was no one to hold me. No one to initiate me into my sacred role as life-giver. No one to honour me as a woman. I looked at my blood and felt fear and shame, and subsequently ignored that part of me—my sacred feminine essence—for the next three decades. I went on birth control, saw my blood as a burden and masculated myself to fit into a society that asks women to act like men; hustle, work, and strive. I did this for so long I became completely disconnected from my womb; the cosmic portal between my thighs. Then, about three years ago, I moved through some intense somatic womb healing brought about through the combination of meditation, sister circles and a healing relationship with a man who created the space for me to transmute sexual trauma - all of which existed because of the shame (both ancestral and current) held in my womb space.
I wish no woman would relate to my story, but I know you all will in some way, shape or form.
I am devoted to changing the narrative. Women are sacred and deserve to be treated as so. It is through my deepest devotion that I create a ceremony for you, wherever you are on this feminine journey, so that you feel how deeply sacred you are.
During my ceremonies,
you can expect:
A dedicated central alter space honouring the four directions; Water, Air, Earth, Fire
An Acknowledgement of Land and Country
An infusion of cacao with other herbal medicines like Blue Lotus or Mugwort
An honouring and welcoming of ancestors, dieties and people from the spiritual realm
A guided meditation or visualisation practice to help participants relax, feel grounded, and open their minds and hearts to the experiences that may unfold during the ceremony
The facilitation of a sharing opportunity where participants can express their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in a supportive and non-judgmental environment
I take a non-dogmatic approach to all my ceremonies and do not follow any one particular faith. Instead, I bring in my beliefs around the interconnectedness of all beings, past and present, as well as my clairsentient ability to feel the energies around us. All of my intentions come from a place of love and compassion, wanting people to feel safe, heard and connected.
