Awakening and Embodying
the Divine Feminine:
The Shamanic Priestess Process™
"How might you life have been different if there had been a place for you? A place for you to go... a place of women, to help you learn the ways of woman... a place where you were nurtured from an ancient flow sustaining you and steadying you as you sought to become yourself. A place of women to help you find and trust the ancient flow already there within yourself... waiting to be released..." -- Judith Duerk
This is a year-long journey of dedicated women who are ready to reclaim and embody the Divine Feminine within. It is a journey into one’s personal and spiritual power in order to walk with confidence and authenticity in the world.
Through the Shamanic Priestess Process™, women are able to discover their gifts and soul’s purpose and become more grounded in who they truly are. As each woman steps more fully into her power, confidence increases, relationships shift, and life becomes more deeply satisfying. As we release our old conditioning, we are able to awaken and embody the “Priestess Within”, mediating the wisdom of heaven and earth and consciously co-creating our lives.
Our Circle will meet for one weekend, every other month from 9:30am - 6:00pm on Saturday and Sunday. The journey unfolds in the following format:
Weekend 1 – Intro Weekend – The New Priestess & Women’s Mysteries
Weekend 2 – The Initiation
Weekend 3 – Enlightening the Shadow Between Women
Weekend 4 – Telling Our Stories
Weekend 5 – Archetypes and Sacred Marriage
Weekend 6 – Conscious Death and Sacred Rebirth
Weekend 7 – Embodiment and Emergence of the Priestess Within
At the end of the year-long process, you will have the opportunity for optional Ordination through Venus Rising Institute for Shamanic Healing Arts.
The Priestess Process™ comes through the lineage of Nicole Christine, author of Temple of the Living Earth and Under Her Wings: The Making of a Magdalene. Her inspiration comes from Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Dark Madonna, previously known as the Goddess Tonantzin. Nicole continued her work by bringing through the Magdalene Mysteries High Priestess Process™ and more recently accessed the third wave of The Process involving work with the Venus Temples energy.
In 2005, Deb participated in the first Twin Cities Shamanic Priestess Process™ circle, called together and apprenticed by Carol Chase and facilitated by Anyaa McAndrew. Anyaa was mentored by Nicole Christine from 1997-1999 and co-created the first Shamanic Priestess circle with StarWolf in 2003. Anyaa also created a Sexual Priestess Process™ that assists women in re-claiming and re-membering and healing our sexual-sensual selves. Anyaa is a Licensed Transpersonal Psychotherapist, Madonna Ministry Bishop and Master Shamanic Astrologer and has pioneered, and apprenticed women in the Shamanic Priestess Process™ in several communities around the country for the past 9 years, including Minneapolis, Kansas City, Atlanta, Portland, Seattle, Cincinnati, and North Carolina.
In 2007, Deb emerged as a Shamanic High Priestess and then began her apprenticeship with Patricia Marie Magdalene McArdle. Patricia is a facilitator of Women’s Circles from her Mystery School called WomanGrace: Honoring and Integrating the Divine Feminine. She is an Ordained Minister and Bishop in the Madonna Ministry with a BS in Education from the University of Minnesota and a Master’s Degree from the College of St. Catherine in Holistic Health.
Deb is honored to continue the lineage sourced through these powerful women. She brings to her circles the wisdom gained from those who've gone before her and adds her own flavor, weaving the threads of the Egyptian Heart Mysteries and the energies of the Blue Star into the existing Shamanic Priestess tapestry.
