THE PURPLE CIRCLE
Men and Women talk Sex, Love & Relationships, TOGETHER!
We're changing locations this month to a Private Home in Carlsbad and adding Soul Lift Cacoa to our evening!
It is IMPORTANT that you PRE-REGISTER before 6 pm on the day of the event so we can send you the exact ADDRESS.
****************************************************************
What is the Purple Circle?
The Purple Circle is a Safe and Sacred Space where men and women come together to learn from each other, heal old wounds, and co-create the new dynamic of relationship equality together.
We meet in sacred ceremony, practice authentic sharing, use expressive art, movement, and play therapy tools to enhance our understanding and hold deep and powerful conversations about sex, relationships, gender, love, dating and more.
These 2 hours will be informative, enlightening, empowering, and tranformative!
Blue (for “Boys”) + Pink (for “Girls)
[represents programmed cultural gender biases and creates division, categorization, separation, disempowerment, disembodiment, and competition]
= The Purple Circle
[represents reclaiming our power, reintegrating the qualities of divine masculine and feminine individually and collectively, sharing knowledge, and becoming one]
What happens during a Purple Circle?
We will call in the quarters (4 directions and elements) creating sacred space. We will share a little about with each other and begin to connect. We will move into conversation around a chosen subject from our ever-expanding list (see the running list on the website). And Finally, we will do a group activity which helps to practically apply the discussed topic in a safe, funny, and poignant way.
Let's be open, honest and authentic with each other- so we can understand our similarities and honor our differences, express our truths, ask the hard questions of one another and get real answers.
Women have been gathering in Red Tents all over the world to talk about what it means to be a woman, how we can heal ourselves and the masculine and feminine dynamic. It is time to bring the men into the conversation and have the discussion together.
Open to EVERYONE (18+)
The Safest Sex is Sacred Sex.
BENEFITS:
The Purple Circle is a Sacred Circle, a place to connect through ritual, share our truths, learn from each other and grow together as Men and Women.
This is a Clean Slate, a fresh start, to be the kind of person you want to be!
Let’s start talking together about what it means to be men and women living in their complete Divine Masculine and Feminine essences individually, communally, and in relationship with each other.
WE WILL ALSO INCLUDE EXPRESSIVE ART, CEREMONY, AND MANY COME PLAY™ ACTIVITIES:
Whether or not we have been victims of direct sexual violence ourselves, our society is so saturated with messages of sexual objectification and past beliefs around what each respective gender is supposed to be that we have all undoubtedly been affected by “rape-culture.” We are all victims of it. Yet we are all participants in it. It’s impossible to get away from. The only choice we have is to change the dynamic within ourselves… up-level our own consciousness, and wake ourselves up.
By accepting responsibility for our part, and living in alignment with our own personal truth about love, we free ourselves.
When we witness each other's pain, we feel compassion and empathy. We understand each other more deeply. We see that we are not alone. We are the same. We are one.
We come to value the innate balance we bring to each other. And we create a new path collectively.
This conversation is SO necessary right now. Sharing this conversation increases knowledge, know-how, and breeds intimacy, communication, and the odds to have a FANTASTIC love life.
When I think about the fact that most mainstream porn is the example we have, and that most people learn how to have sex from this influence either directly or indirectly, I shudder with fright. When percentages of foreplay-giving are so imbalanced, when the actual act is shown so violently, when bodies are used as tools for someone else's pleasure, how could the majority of us possibly be having good sex?
The conversation between ourselves and our inner truth and our partner is imperative. When we repair the sexual dynamic between men and women, we prepare for a new horizon of equality in our relationships. When we talk with friends and strangers on the subject, we are confirmed in our truths... "Oh you too? Me too!"
Both Genders have a responsibility to change the cycle in which we find ourselves. When women give men fake No's because we are supposed to be CHASTE, and men not knowing how to navigate the line between the actual Yes/No because they are supposed to CHASE us. When women start saying true Yes's and actual No's, men will easily be able to navigate our boundaries and will no longer have to chase us in the same way... thus freeing us from the cycle of Chaste and Chased.

CODE OF CONDUCT:

Furthermore, we agree to never “Gaslight” each other. (Gaslighting means: to manipulate someone by psychological means into questioning their own feelings, beliefs, or sanity.)
We will not discount each others’ feelings (by saying, “No, you don’t actually feel that way, you feel ___________ instead”).
We will offer each other a clean slate/fresh start at each and every Purple Circle.
We will do our best to resolve any negative feelings between participants during the present moment or as soon as possible. We will do our best to resolve all issues before the close of that Purple Circle. If we cannot, we will create a plan of action to resolve the conflict.
Finally, we agree that though love can happen any time anywhere, the Purple Circle is not intended to be a dating or hookup opportunity. Though sexual chemistry happens often, we agree to keep our energetic tentacles to ourselves (even if we find them wanting to hook into other participants).
We agree to take care of ourselves and maintain clear boundaries during all conversations.
We give ourselves permission to say “No” at anytime. (If we receive a “No,” we can respond by saying, “Thank you for taking care of yourself.”)
We agree to not Friend Request anyone in the private Facebook group whom we have not met in person and asked, face to face, for consent to connect on social media.
If we find ourselves having an issue with one specific participant and we are unable to resolve the situation on our own in the moment, Sasha Zeilig must be notified.
If we do not feel safe because of another participant, Sasha Zeilig must be notified.
With the first complaint, Sasha will address the participant herself for resolution. If Sasha receives 2 complaints about a specific participant, that person will be asked to leave the Purple Circle for the rest of the year.
We will use the Peace Rose System of conflict resolution:
Person A: When you did __________________, I felt __________________.
Or
I didn’t like it when you ___________________________.
