Amantha Murphy at Wise Woman Weekend |
Amantha Murphy will
facilitate a workshop at the Wise Woman Weekend in Dromahair Co. Leitrim, May
25th -27th 2012.
“We are at a pivotal time in
our story, as a people and as women,” Amantha says. “This is our opportunity to
create anew what, and how, we want the world to continue and grow. What stories
will our daughters and nieces tell of us? How do we want to be remembered? We
will look to take on our mantle of Grace, Passion and Power through movement,
song and silence, to be in our Power as women, Sisters to each other, to hold
space and to live in our truth and authenticity. We are the Ones and theTime is
NOW.”
Amantha’s main area of
interest is in all things Ancestral - Celtic - Goddess and “womyn” focused -
living in the now in passion, power, grace, beauty and creativity. She first got involved with the Wise Woman
Weekend when she was asked to give a shamanic workshop. “What I love about the Wise Woman Weekend is
women empowering each other and remembering the essence of sisterhood. I hope that it will grow and continue to evolve.
That, also, it would be based in a different Province each year.”
When asked what one gem of
wisdom she would share with other women, Amantha said: “Remember you ARE all
you are meant to be, you just need to live in the fullness of your wondrous and
unique nature..”
According to Amantha, the
greatest difficulty facing women today is “non-appreciation of our grace and
ability to multitask and hold what is necessary to bring growth. We are a
personification of the great Feminine, in whatever form you see/feel Her to be.
As women, we have been programmed not to make noise, not to 'rock the boat',
not to be seen as equals in the world. We are awaking from the great enforced
sleep and taking our power fully again. As women, as sisters, as mothers, wives
and daughters we need to be aware of the gifts we leave to our future
generations of women. We were free and equal in every manner and we need our
young ones to remember this again. Rites of Passage bring this back into our
awareness - they allow us to honour our paths, obstacles and joys.”
“I have to say that I admire
all the women who stand to be counted as ones who hold the flame and the
chalice for other women to rekindle theirs. Each woman I have met, offering
their gifts, at the Wise Woman Weekend is, for me, a great gift and I feel
honoured to be a part of their weave in this.
