This is the card that’s come every day this week. And it’s felt like a steady presence, the very kind being invoked for this weekend’s immersive dive into coherence…. I left my co-facilitator a long voice note this morning while drinking coffee and looking at the moon out my kitchen window…. About how the call I’ve been hearing from women to gather with other women and to BE in presence, fully alive, without collapse, merging, compulsive mirroring, caretaking or competition requires - in part - a relationship with the inner masculine that is different than many of us are used to. To put down the strive, the guard, the doing, the figuring, and heroics and not merely crash into the bubble bath or the moss and fill up on time-managed formlessness, but be both infinitely turned on and alive in our truth, and fully embodied and moving in and through the world.

It’s a new horizon of embodied power calling us forth… it’s been a long journey here and I can’t wait to finally land at .experience tomorrow and enter this field of Sister Beloved with and .

See you there, sisters ☕️🌹

🌕🐂 The animus is not a man—it’s a mode of energy. The function of psyche that seeks to know, to act, to articulate truth.

When unconscious, it becomes the tyrant voice:
you should, you must, you failed.

It mirrors the patriarchy we’ve internalized—
command without compassion, order without embodiment.

When brought to consciousness, it becomes the bridge.
The word that serves breath, the action that serves love.

This isn’t about masculine versus feminine,
or woman versus man.
It’s about reuniting the polarities that make us whole.

The sacred marriage lives inside us.

Save this as a reminder that your authority is sacred,
and it begins in the body.

Halloween, or Samhain, has always been more than a night of masks. It’s the turning of the year when the psyche thins its own veils — when the repressed, the ancestral, and the wild rise to speak again.

James Hillman wrote in Pan and the Nightmare that panic is not a disorder but a visitation: the god entering through the body. When fear moves through us, it’s not the dark we’re meeting — it’s the living world reminding us that psyche and nature have never been separate.

The witch remembers this.
She listens to what trembles beneath fear and follows it down to where instinct, eros, and imagination still speak the same language.

As the world trembles — politically, ecologically, psychically — this remembrance is medicine.
The trembling is participation, not pathology.

🕯 Blessed Samhain.

Every threshold in a woman’s life asks the same question:
Can you stay in relationship with your desire while standing in the unknown?

That’s where coherence begins — not in certainty,
but in the body’s ability to hold paradox without shutting down.

This week, the vessel of Sister Beloved stands open.
If you’ve been circling the doorway, this is your invitation to cross consciously.

🜂 The door closes Friday, Halloween, at 9pm ET.

Ten years ago I turned a key in the door of a Queen Anne house in Hudson and named it Aletis House — after the wandering heroine of mythologist Jody Bower’s ‘Jane Eyre’s Sisters’ who searches for a place where her true self can live and be seen.

I consecrated it as a vessel — a space where women could come as they are, where the sacred feminine could be lived in body and breath.

Over this decade it has held women through years of monthly councils, deep soulwork retreats, and one-to-one journeys that became rituals of remembrance.

And if I’ve learned anything, it’s this:
Transformation doesn’t come from effort.
It comes from being better held.

When the body is received by safety instead of demand, the soul begins to rise.
That’s coherence — the heartbeat of the feminine.

Today I’m celebrating ten years of this work in this place that has held so many including myself, and the vessel that continues to evolve through…

Sister Beloved — is a celebration, a living field where the feminine is fed, not managed; remembered, not performed. Sister Beloved is happening soon, not here at Aletis, but across the river at Akera as this work’s evolution travels beyond its origins, rising further and wider into the world.

If you’ve ever been part of this vessel — thank you 🙏🏼❤️

If you’re hearing the call to return to the well — the doors to Sister Beloved are open, though not for much longer!

We gather soon. Nov 7-10 at .experience
Join me and who will be guiding us into embodied bliss and dancing us back into the timeless spiral that is our own being and becoming.

Eros is life-force. It’s how the soul touches the body.
How creative fire moves through matter.
When we lose touch with Eros, we go numb — beautiful on the outside, deep hunger inside.

Come to the hearth to tend the embers of your flame this Imbolc - the midway point between winter and spring, as the earth begins to thaw, so can you 🖤🌱

So moved to be returning to this particular group tending offering. Truly the most potent workshop experience of them all here in the world of embodyperiod - for our sexual shadows are as deep and rich as our greatest expression out in the daylight world.

with love, Roxanne

🌚 Embody what it’s like to be held in coherence. Sisters, this experience is the deep nourishment that hydrates the next aligned blooming of all the work you’ve done to come back to yourself. Yes, you get to reclaim AND dance and expand in the pleasure and resonance of the bodysoul you’ve recovered from your descent(s). Come, be fed on the rich top soil of being interconnected and in collective power of sacred sisterhood.

Join me, and at the private retreat grounds of Akera for a weekend of amplified bliss, dance, and embodied sovereignty through resonance and pleasure. You get to be this, do this, too.

All the luscious details can be found through the link in my bio.
Join us, sis 🌹

Clarissa Pinkola Estés says the wild woman doesn’t blend to belong — she sings across the canyon.
Her song is difference, and it calls the rest of us home.

Sisterhood isn’t safety through sameness.
It’s the courage to stay in our own rhythm while listening for another’s.

When we do, something ancient rises between us — what Martin Buber called the I–Thou field: a current of divine relation, felt through the body, made real through presence.

This is what we practice in Sister Beloved:
Edges as prayer.
Voices as medicine.
Difference as devotion.

Come into deep alignment and amplify your resonance. Join me, , and for a bodysoul nourishing weekend on the ceremonial grounds of Akera nestled in the Catskills foothills this November.
