“With a grateful heart I thank Sasha, the lead team, and every participant for the love and friendship we now share. I went in need of receiving and Goddess delivered with all the learning, dancing, chanting, bonding, sharing, moving, laughing, crying, and HEALING that happened at this 1st SSGG weekend"

“Has anyone else noticed a change in the way people are responding to you since last weekend? I have. I am not worried about being perfect - I just connect with people on a more pure level and have real conversations. I hope this sticks! It's kinda great! Thank you to all the goddesses that opened their hearts and souls to me this weekend and shared my joy and pain and allowed me to share theirs. -Stacey Tester

“I witnessed a gathering of Angels, raising their voices to the heavens in beautiful song.
A song for healing and courage and love and acceptance.
A song calling for those who have lost their way, to return to the light, to the healing love of Sisterhood.Hands joined, voices raised.
A vortex of healing energy, bursting forth into the cosmos.
Divine Feminine energy, scattered to the four directions.
A calling for all who will hear, to come join us and raise the planetary vibration and to remember........ We are One"

Person: Maya Perez
Place: Southern Sierra Goddess Gathering 2017
Thing: Me being super (overwhelmed?) in awe of today.
Why: Today was transformational for every single person in that room. Connection was made on such a level that to me the only curiosity was why this is seen (generally) as abnormal or uncomfortable. I left the mediation room today more comforted than I have been in literally years.
These past hours I have laughed so hard I cried and slapped the floor. I have cried for reasons that were not my own and learned that I am me and you are you and it's okay for everyone to be having an entirely different experience simultaneously. I learned that the person having the experience is okay, and if they aren't that is also okay. Today I learned that the beliefs I carry are valued because I look into every single one of these women's eyes and I know they feel the same way about how we need to inspire the change in others as well.
Today has been so transcending of all the days before it. Not in a superior fashion but more in a way that calls for more of these type of experiences and support me becoming the human I want to be instead of the human "expected of me". I am writing this sitting on the floor because a chair or couch or anything just didn't sound as appealing as the variety of options that a floor allows. I have bare feet that can walk on the earth and help me return to mother earth what she had given me. I learned about safe spaces and about how to honor them in times of need.
I was shown the gift of being able to transform myself with simply a set of assorted markers and colored pencils. I gained so much from some the insight of entering the wound. I learned that the phrase sweet dreams and asking to give someone a hug can be considered trivial in daily life but at this gathering actually meant something. I love that Sasha talked about race relations in an environment that people have the opportunity to sit down and listen, or share their personal tests that they have been given. I sit here and think of how much love I have for every one of these people and I am astonished at myself, I am astonished by all of us frankly. We have been and will continue to be opening up ourselves to such a level which I know would be virtually impossible in 99% of environments. I learned that the skills I have literally spent my entire life crafting and selecting and practicing, are worthwhile and that people appreciate each other when given the opportunity. I learned more about how angel cards work (trust me I will be getting myself some) and that it doesn't previous knowledge of a person to make them weep in relief. I learned about some of the inspirational gifts we all have. I learned about crystal energy as a specimen jumped from Morgan's hands onto the floor. Also, Sasha's talk on the lie we have all been told about our imaginations was beyond profound for me. I can't say I woke up expecting all of this, I would be lying. I expected to take pictures and participate when I could. That however did not happen it was more like I was being fed by a light rail of knowledge, like I had found something, or if I had not, like I didn't need to be endlessly searching. Searching for what is next. For what is and isn't. Searching for purpose and for why I am here. It does not matter. IT DOESN'T. What is real and relevant is how you treat, relate and connect to your loved ones. How when you are here on this planet you are a physical bridge. You are not a fucked up version of whatever model Barbie is on the shelves. You are beyond the ability to be described in words and you are complete without anything from anyone else; you should love yourself as much as we love our mother. Most importantly, today I learned I am not alone. I love you, sincerely a girl about to go shut down the California hot springs with a fleet of mermaids. This cannot be described as average and I love that.
