women's circles

"I embody many faces of wisdom, reflecting back the truths women most need to see."

Circles are a space for women be supported, nurtured and uplifted.

A place to come just as you are. Cross over an invisible threshold leaving behind your daily roles and responsibilities and just BE.

No pretenses or performances.

Rest in a space held just for you - to breathe, to listen, to share stories, to connect, and to align with the wisdom that naturally arises when women come together.

what is a circle?

A Circle is a group of women who come together in person or online for 1 to 2 hours to connect, listen, share stories and be in community.

The Circle is facilitated by Aby Ryan, a certified Women's Circle facilitator trained in a simple format that holds space for inner reflection, meditation, shared stories, silence, and heart connection.

Gently guided, you are invited to cross over an invisible threshold into a space of listening, reflection, authentic sharing.  There is no advice giving, cross talk, no striving for an outcome.  There are no goals or place to arrive, just an invitation to open your heart, be present, and allow the Circle to work it's magic.

an invitation

Come, sit with us.

Quiet your mind.

Sink into your body.

Feel your emotions.

Rest your spirt.

Let us hold space for your stories

and the wisdom that naturally arises

when women gather.

IN HER TRIBE Circle Series

Inspired by Danielle Doby's book, I AM HER TRIBE,  I invite you to join me for an intimate cohort (8 or less) of women for an series online circles facilitated and designed around Danielle's powerful poems.

6 Sundays: January 11, February 1, February 22, March 15, April 19, May 3
75 minute sessions
5pm PST, 8pm EST

Our gatherings will be simple yet profoundly impactful. We'll begin with a grounding meditation, followed by a poem,  a reflective question and journaling. We'll then open the circle for sharing and deep, authentic listening and conversation.

Commit to a season of small changes with profound meaning.  8 women, 6 circles, 5 months. A beautiful new tribe.

 

lessons worth learning and relearning -

none of this was meant to be done all alone.
there is nothing courageous about covering up your pain so no one else sees it.

there is nothing glorified about having it all together.
you do not need to justify choosing your health
over someone's happiness or approval.
and life can be wonderful.
perfect.
even when
and especially when
it's hard.

“Aby had such a wonderful way of not only analyzing but also synthesizing the birth chart in a digestible and intuitive manner. She has a lovely energy and really opens the floor for personal interpretation of her readings. Would absolutely recommend her to any of my friends or family.”

-Skylar

My astrology reading with Aby was incredible! I’ve always identified so much as a Scorpio, but she completely blew my mind when she showed me how much Sagittarius energy I have, too!

I learned so much—she’s such a great teacher and gives you SO much info! In the past, astrology readings have felt overwhelming to me, but Aby has a way of making everything easy to understand.

It was not only super eye-opening and informative but also so much fun, and I already can’t wait for my next reading.

-Jaclyn

I experienced at a recent Women's Retreat very moving and spiritual opening, middle and closing ceremonies. They were Circles of Women led by Aby Ryan, and they created a sacred space from the beginning to the end of the retreat. From the  beginning circle with the use of a sound bowl, sage, many candles and a chant, to the end with the sound bowl, one significant candle and the use of powerful words and affirmations, Aby took us to a place we could focus and create where we needed to be. We all felt both relaxed and powerful to move toward and away from our retreat.

Written in the Stars
 
Working with Aby has been truly life changing! She was able to read my birth chart and communicate in a way that brought great clarity to past life events.  Aby was extremely patient and informative in helping me understand my chart. This experience has given me a deeper understanding of my strengths and challenges along with validation and acceptance that things happen just as they’re meant to. I look forward to continued sessions with Aby to gain further insight and clarity on what was written in the stars for me.
