Dear Sisters and Mothers of Creation!


We Invite you to take Your sit within a Circle of Women. We are opening a space of honouring, nurturing and inspiration. We will share two amazing days in Ceremonies  dedicated to our SACRED TEMPLE – WOMB.  

We will enter through the Sacred Gateway, YONI, the Seat of the absolute Divine Presence and Power. We will invoke Her transformation, restoring, awakening and empowerment.

It is time that all Women regain Divinity and inner strength by returning the Womb to its original nature.

We will share stories, sing holy mantras and worship the Divine Goddess - which lives within all of us, for the Highest good of all Creation.
During those days you'll be invited to explore Your Goddess Nature and how can You help remodel the World we live in. It is Feminine energy that Invites and Restores the cosmic balance. It is Your Energy that restores cosmic balance.


It is time for all of Us to regain our true nature for the benefit of Mother Earth and All Creation.

WOMB PUJA
'Embodiment of The Divine'  
              
1Puja: is the act of showing reverence to a god, a spirit, or another aspect of the divine through invocations, prayers, songs, and rituals. An essential part of puja for the Hindu devotee is making a spiritual connection with the Divine.

DAY TWO; Today we dive deeper into our Sacred Temple – WOMB. Womb is a Temple of Life. From Here we give Birth to Ourselves. From here we give Birth to Projects. From here we give Birth to Children. We will perform Womb Puja that will restore and awaken our Feminine energies.

Womb is the light generator of the body and the creator of Joy. When she is clear and activated we connect with the full unbounded expression of life, that embraces male and female consciousness.

Within our Wombs are memories of Seven Generations of Ancestors, within our Wombs are the possibilities of The Future Generations. Here lies our responsibility  and power.

What World do we want to Give Birth to?

When we have a Womb that is clear of any past trauma, when she becomes a Golden Chalice we have a Womb that responsibly Births next Generations. When Women regain divinity and inner strength Mother Earth heals and rises Her Vibration. For we are Her extention…

Those are exciting times of Evolution. And We are co-creating this with Men. It takes our full commitment. We will explore our relations and how can they be remodeled.

Sacred Temple

Within the Living Goddess Tradition, Women are the embodiment of Adthi-Para-Shakti on Earth. Women are born in the image of the Great Goddess of creation, as She continues the act of creation on Earth.


For a Woman to return to her natural self  the Womb has to be purified and inner harmony has to be restored.


CEREMONY:  We will use mantras and sounds that connects us with our Inner Guru. Those mantras and sounds invoke the energy that cleanses past karma and negativity from our Womb. They also balance and activate both sides of the body.
We will journey with sound, prayers and visualizations that will restore Yoni energy and Her Wisdom. We will have a burning Fire inside of the Earth - this will be our Altar – a place of transformation, power and love.

WHAT TO BRING:  Bring your personal object of Beauty and Strenght (crystals, cards, drum,..) Bring anything you want to offer to the Fire. Also bring some flowers for The Altar decoration.

There will be a time after the Ceremony for SISTER UNION and CELEBRATION. Please bring some nutritious vegetarian / vegan food to share in The Circle. ©

Duration of the Ceremony, approx. 4 hours.

Your Contribution for this Ceremony is based on a DONATION.  Contribute according to your ability. Thank You.



This Ceremony will be guided by two beautiful Women, whose Paths connected on the wings of Love and Service to Life.

DIVINE FEMME BLOOMING 'Slavic Women Inspiring'

'Divine Femme Blooming Sisters, Spring Gathering, 2015' by Nataša Horvat

Divine Femme Blooming was born out of a Vision of an incredible Woman - Taja Albolena. 


Initially 13 Slavic Women from Slovenia gathered for an Online Series 'RAZCVET ŽENSKE'. We came from All Walks of Life to share Stories, Journeys, Inspiration, Wisdom and Grace from Our Basket of Life. We Gathered to Inspire Women of This Land to Blossom - to Shine like Stars!

Circle of Women sharing our curiosity, wisdom, love, strength, tenderness, dreams and Visions. Opening The Path to Co-Creation...


Women Co-creation! 



The series launched in August 2014 and it was beautifuly received. Women wrote letters of Gratitude - how they Inspired and Moved them...


It felt natural to expand and offer a WOMEN's GATHERING. 


The very first Slovene Woman's Gathering was held in the idyllic location of Bled on 8th of November 2014. This Circle was jointly created by a group of women behind the Razcvet Ženske / Divine Femme Blooming Community and was further enriched by those Women who Entered The Door as Participants only to merge into the Circle and became its Co-creators!

Divine Femme Blooming Community

Andreja Cepus, Manca RazborÅ¡ek, Gaia Asta, Vesna Hostnik, Andrejka Harej, 
Ksenija Malia Leban, Suzana GrauMartina Vrhovnik and Taja Albolena.


We are Growing and Supporting each other on the Way. Learning with each Gathering what it means to co-create, to see, to hear each other. We are dancing through challenges with humor and respect and celebrating victories as they come....  


Queens Uniting for the Benefit of ALL!

On a personal note…                                                                                                        
I was born in Slovenia and I journeyed as an actress in theatre and films before embarking on a transformative Journey to The Southern Hemisphere in 2012. Those 13 Moons re<birthed my Fire and reset my Inner Compass. I devoted this time to Listening my heart Songs and genuinely following where The Spirit called me. This Way Path Unfolded with many blessings and gifts that are big part of the tapestry I live and share now. Everything started falling in its place and my Dreaming Unveiled with Grace.

Inspired by many Walks of life I dreamt of Aluna Temple for several years before birthing it to life. A temple where you recognise and birth your Dream Seeds, re-connect with your Fire and embrace your Birth Song.

My deep passion for this midwife journey led me to create several workshops that embody depths of my love for storytelling, singing, dancing, shamanism, circles, women's mysteries, womb wisdom, rites of passages, re-connection with Earth and care for All Life! 

While I lived in Australia I received an honorary acknowledgement 'European Ambassadress for Culture and Healing' by TRIBAL ROYAL SOCIETY INTERNATIONAL at Global Elders Gathering, QLD that created a Bridge between my Healing and Creative flows. 

This is unfolding journey that takes me to places I have never been. There is so much we can share and learn from each other. I believe in INSPIRATION in creative spark of life. From this Grace we expand our consciousness, expand the way we relate to each other and Mother Earth, expand the way we Live...

On my Journeys I met so many amazing people who Serve diligently for the Benefit of All Life. Many profound conversations have been shared and they inspired me to create an online magazine 'Aluna Temple Magazine' - a collection of Articles from both Hemispheres, a Bridge of Inspiration, Hope, Wisdom, Consciousness with Invitation to meaningful Actions that cares for All Life.

Since I came back to Europe I've been offering Circles that revives Spirit of Community, Women Circles and Red Tents, Womb Alchemy, Individual Ceremonies, Stories of Wisdom and Inspiration that remind you of Who you are and that your talents are Medicine for the Times we Live in.

I hope that my Journey INSPIRES YOUR BIRTH SONG and that maybe somewhere on the Way we 
Sit, Dance and Sing in The Circle!

Much love, grace and inspiration Your Way! - Suzana

 Keep the Fire Burning and Keep Singing your Birth Song

WOMEN CIRCLES & RED TENTS WITH SUZANA GRAU

RED TENTS OF THE WORLD
'Weaving Women Stories, Wisdom, Songs and Mysteries '

In Native American culture, if you wanted to destroy a village, you simply destroyed the Moon Lodge, the place of Wisdom. So the fastest way to rebuild our global village is to reclaim our Wisdom by reinstating the tradition of the Moon Lodge. ~ Tanishka (www.starofishtar.com)



Inspiration to hold Women Circles and Red Tents came as an echo of my attendance at the 13 Moon WildSong Camp in England. My first circle of Women. Carolyn Hillyer opened her space and 120 women from Seven countries gathered in Dartmoor Mists to unite in Celebration of our weaving voices, our drumming hands and our dancing feet. We dived into Songs for Ancestral Mothers, Earth blessing & sacred lands, Songs for integrity and change, Songs from islands and forest, mountains and tundra, Ancient Chants for weaving and walking, laments for our tears, musical ditties for our laughter... all infused with the rhythms of our hearts and sacred drums. 


Our Sacred Journey started with 'Blessed Be The Blood' song.


Blessed Be the blood on your skirt
Blessed Be the blood on your thighs

Blessed Be the blood ....
Blessed Be the blood ....

~ Carolyn Hillyer, Old Silverhead


As Carolyn Sang and Drummed tears rolled my eyes. I didn't even know I missed being held in a Woman Circle, I didn't even know they existed, I didn't even know it was so nurturing, I didn't even know why I cried, but something released that night and opened my Heart to All Women in that Tent and to The Women in me. 

As days passed I heard Giggles of the youngest one - a 3 month Girl, as days passed I heard Women Stories of loss, abandonment and death, as days passed I heard Women Stories of vulnerability, as days passed I heard Women Stories of power, strenght and wisdom, as days passed I heard Women Stories of Grace and Determination.  

I listened deeply to those songs and stories of Girls, Mothers, Aunties, Grandmothers and Great-gran-mothers. They all felt my Stories. They all felt my Sisters. As they say in The Lakota's Way:

There's only one Woman and SHE is all Women
There's only one Man and HE is all Man. 
~ Lakota proverb

♥ Women Circle, International Gathering of Circles, Poland (2014) ♥ 

Having experienced the power of Women Circle I longed to share this experience with other women... and soon after the Gathering I held a Circle for Women who were part of my Life's Journey. A Gathering dedicated to the stories of GRATITUDE & HUMOUR.

From there it naturally expanded and I am holding Circles ever since. 

In 2012 I Journeyed to The Southern Hemisphere, for 13 Moons. I walked the Land and listened to Her songs and stories, listened to  Ancestral wisdom of Australia and New Zeland.

Inspired by them I organised ONE BILLION RISING in New Zealand and started RED TENTS OF THE WORLD, a project dedicated to Bring Women Circles and Women Mysteries to the Communities I come across on The Way. 

My Intention is to Inspire Women to connect to their Womb Power, to their Cycle and Spirit. To revive Ancient knowledge of Women Mysteries and to hold Sacred Space for WOMEN to BE SEEN and HEARD.

There is so much we can share by simply being ourselves - BEING A WOMEN.
