Moon Medicine Gathering
Expanding the Circle: Moon Medicine with the Red Alchemy Clan
As we navigate global uncertainty, The Trailblazery are hosting a series of curated online experiences for women who need inspiration, encouragement and connection in the times ahead.
Moon Medicine is a circle that keeps on giving and we have hosted incredible women from over the world for our online Moon Medicine gatherings. As women and sisters, as mothers, daughters and granddaughters - this is the time to celebrate our feminine creative life force, awaken our Shakti and midwife a future that serves all beings.
At Moon Medicine we are here to empower and elevate women from all walks of life. Everyone is welcome. We will open space for you to bring whatever is alive for you and together we will explore how we can be of service to ourselves , each other and our world in these challenging times.
You are invited to gather in circle for our final gathering of 2020 with our host Kathy Scott and two of Ireland’s leading female whisperers Kitty Maguire and Dee Mulrooney of The Red Alchemy Clan and a host of inspiring medicine women on November 30.
“A circle of women may just be the most powerful force known to humanity. If you have one, embrace it. If you need one, seek it. If you find one, for the love of all that is good and holy, dive in.”
We look forward to welcoming you to our closing Moon Medicine Live circle of 2020 with the Red Clan. Together, we will gather in circle, share stories, performance and songs and weave our collective experiences of Womb, Moon & Celtic Cyclical Wisdoms. There will also be ritual and practices to support, balance and empower cyclical bodies. We will also be joined by very special guests Growler and Scottish musician and singer songwriter Rachel Sermanni .
“I am over the moon to host my great souls sisters Kitty and Dee to our final Moon Medicine Circle of 2020. It is a total dream to welcome them both and especially fitting as we approach the closing stages of this epic crossing. 2020 has been an intense year for all of us and I am especially delighted to close this year out with a gathering of powerful creatrixes. Kitty is a pioneer who has been blazing a trail supporting and empowering womb holders, women and people who menstruate in Ireland. Founder of Red Alchemy she leads a strong clan of women passionate about supporting and empowering womb holders, women and people who menstruate. Dee is an artist, activist and alchemist who sometimes moonlights as Growler an 80 year old Vulva from the inner city of Dublin. They have both been in my life for a long time now and are the women I am learning to turn to when I need connection, support, reassurance, love and some irreverent belly laughs. We are also thrilled to invite our Scottish sister Rachel Sermanni to the fold.”

About Moon Medicine
Moon Medicine was initiated by The Trailblazery {Census of the Heart, We Need to Talk About Ireland, Rites of Passage} in 2018 in the light of Repeal and the rising momentum of women worldwide speaking out, stepping up and reclaiming their power. Our mission is to help women to remember, embody and reclaim their authentic powerful selves so that together we can rise and lift each other up along the way. In 2019 the Moon Medicine Global Academy was launched - a year-long online training programme for women which expanded our Moon Medicine circle to include women all over the world.
Our live Moon Medicine gatherings weave together a range of feminine teachings blending ancient wisdom with cutting edge developments in the fields of epigenetics, quantum physics and neuroscience. We explore the gifts of the lunar cycle as a map of empowerment for women’s wellbeing. We draw from a deep well to find practices and resources that support women’s self care and the care of this place we call home. To find out more visit TheTrailblazery.com

Testimonials:
Kathy Scott has been traveling the world as a passionate student and brave pioneer of practices that bring people into intimate contact with their creativity and power. As a teacher, she beautifully weaves together all that she has gathered into a rich and generous offering. This is a deeply nourishing and powerful brew, especially for women.
Annie Ryan, Artistic Director Corn Exchange
Kathy Scott creates an utterly transcendent yoga experience. I attended her recent Rising Feminine Medicine Yoga Programme and it exceeded any expectations that I might have had on a mental, emotional, energetic and deeply feminine level. Her classes are packed full of wisdom, kindness, practical yoga asanas and meditative exercises that flowed off the mat with me and seamlessly threaded into my days for the rest of the week. Kathy elegantly weaves a powerful depth and breath of experience into all of her classes. Such a restorative weekly tonic. I couldn't recommend her more highly.
