Women express their appreciation of Ishara's work...

Blessings Beloveds,

Below, is notice from Ishara (Catherine de Garis) on the next Womens’ Mystery Ceremony. I’m very sad that I can’t make this one, but I went along last time and was profoundly moved by the loving and sacred space Ishara creates for these ceremonies to take place. It was full of beauty and grace and allowed me to fall into a gentle space that was much needed at the time.

We are moving more and more towards unity consciousness but there are still many women who have not fully explored the deeper mysteries of the Divine Feminine that we embody. This is one way in which you may do so...

In Love & Oneness

Recommendation from a satisfied client re. Naming Ceremony

Ishara recently performed a naming ceremony for my two young children, Samson and Matilda. The ceremony was beautiful and heartfelt, and Ishara spoke with resonance and composure.

The ceremony was put together in such a way that involved all who attended. A friend remarked she had attended other naming ceremonies that were just “someone at the front talking.” Ishara surpassed this by including not just myself and Andy, (my partner): but also grandparents, great grandparents, aunties, uncles and friends.

We met with Ishara on two occasions before the ceremony. She took great care in finding out how we wanted the ceremony to proceed, by providing various prayers, quotes and suggestions. Her manner was professional and warm.

Everyone who attended remarked on how unique and moving the ceremony was. My sister in law also commented that Ishara “let everyone have their space.”

Thank you Ishara for providing this service for us, it is an occasion that we will remember and cherish.

Sincerely,

Elissa M.
