The transition between these 2 archetypal realms for women is distinct and sacred. It is the time of our first moon cycle. This time is technically termed menarche, the onset of our menstrual cycle. This is a huge threshold and in the modern mainstream world is not generally given much attention. It is important that we go back and reclaim this time for our souls. Rites of passage give our elemental bodies developmental anchors to understand their changing relationships to each other and are essential to true and full embodiment of our potential. Our soul runs on sacred time and needs these markers to understand it’s passage through earth life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/b59823f6-b392-4c12-a921-e28d71258e1d/H10.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/f4df9f58-4dca-4177-abf0-613ffd51e5ff/H38+%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/e78b849b-3207-47fb-a8d2-e958527a63ca/H56.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/36717dc8-ddf0-4e40-9762-ad3e37863707/IMG_2624.jpg Menarche Ceremony Content - Journal Your First Blood Story: • When did you start to develop? • How did you feel about it? • What messages did you get from your mother, from your community? • Was your first blood celebrated and honored? • Were you late in bleeding or early? • What was your connection to other girls going through this rite of passage? • We must remember and tend to our past experience with this, as it sets the tone for much of the way we grew into our womanhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/103680af-9828-40a8-b7b1-71372f101c6d/H45+%282%29.jpg Menarche Ceremony Content - The Mystery of Hormones Science really doesn’t know why the pituitary and ovaries start puberty when they do…the functioning of the hormonal system is one that still shrouded in a lot of questions and not a lot of answers. It is important to understand how extraordinary and mysterious our biology actually is. We think we understand puberty but really we don’t! First Blood is an ancient ritual of maturity and initiation and it is imperative that we go back to this time in our lives. One of the things that often happens when we make this transition without the great support and respect given to us as young women, we lose connection to ourselves in the wash of the hormones and the way the modern world shows us what womenhood is. This is the beginning of our sexually creative lives. Now, before this happens, all beings have eros moving through them, so sexuality doesn’t start at puberty, but it does shift, especially for girls as the womb ignites its creative power. This gets lost when we don’t nourish this equal connection. We lose the imaginative powers of the mythic mind, and we relegate the womb to making babies and women to being sexy for men. There has been a diminishment of both of these great portals and their potentials. So, during your menarche ceremony, you will redo this time, and re-weave the connection between head and womb that gets severed because of the misunderstandings, the lack of witnessing and nourishing of this great partnership. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/64b9de6d-38b7-4432-b8c8-6d9c4d258dbc/H4+%282%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/f31c85b2-0cd3-45a4-8df6-d5ce7d0a0f7d/H35+%281%29.jpg https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/hearth daily 1.0 2024-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/1633054075310-J3I3AC4DFIJW3LPZDPGW/H59+%281%29.jpg Hearth https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/location daily 0.75 2021-10-01 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/contact daily 0.75 2021-10-06 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-seductress daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/story daily 0.75 2024-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/1633054465456-OFX8HN2PB3JAEEJ4EDJN/H17.jpg Story - AVALON, the Isle of Apples, Ynys Witrin, the Shining Realm, is a legendary Landscape of Love that exists both within our bodies and in the external world of Gaia. The Holy Isle of Avalon guards the gates of evolutionary destiny for Gaia. Here in the Landscape of Love that is Avalon we find the entrance to Gaia’s secrets, her great beating Dragon Heart of Destiny. Avalon is the eternal Shining Realm of Sovereignty, a stronghold of ancient Magic. As Ynys Witrin, the “Isle of Glass,” Avalon is the mirror, the reflector of your own soul. What you experience in Avalon is who you are – make no mistake – for all of Avalon’s legends of being an eternal paradise, a summer realm of youth, peace and grace, Avalon is also the Isle of the Dead and wants you fully FREE more than anything else. Freedom is a birth-right, but it also needs to be earned to be made real, to be embodied. Avalon will lead you into the deepest, most hidden places In your soul to excavate this indelible Divinity within you. As Avalon Awakens within you, she calibrates you to God, to Truth, to Love. She will strip you of all the ways you are fused with the illusion, with the lies, with the oppression and obscuring falsehoods of modern life. You have been trained to be a prisoner, to be a good girl or boy and to fear that which is your true benevolent majesty. The Isle of Avalon summoned me home three decades ago and what a ride it has been to have this Landscape of Love awakened and pulsing within me every day since. Avalon took me apart and put me together. Morgana pushed me relentlessly to find my dragon heart courage and turn my shadow-self and monsters within into my greatest allies. Merlin descended into my crown on the Starfire of Awen and rearranged my mind and sense of self. The Lady of the Lake drowned me in my/Her emotions and restored the Holy Grail power in my blood. Arthur, Gwyn ap Nudd, Lancelot and Joseph of Arimathea partnered me within and taught me to surrender and trust the King in men. Along the way as I walked my personal path of devotion, in 1999, the Lady of Avalon gave me a vision and a mission - to bring back a Dragon Lineage of Avalon. This lineage is a lineage not of priestesses, but of High Priestesses of Avalon. Ancient Grail-Keepers, these modern women have gathered from around the planet, from many diverse circumstances and backgrounds. We have all been High Priestesses of Avalon in other timelines. But in this one, we have incarnated together, because there is work to do that can only be done as a collective, as a council, as a circle of equals. This past Beltane of 2021, myself and Awakening Avalon Temple quietly celebrated the fulfillment of a landmark 22-year cycle of legacy building. There are now FOUR generations of in-tact Priestesses in our Dragon family! This is a huge accomplishment and I am so proud of both my own work and the radical dedication of the women I journey with. It is no easy thing to walk the Path of Avalon or to pull a Dragon Lineage out of the Mists of Time and anchor it fully across multiple generations. I bow down to the revolutionary commitment and pure devotion of the women who are Awakening Avalon Temple Priestesses. I thank you with all my heart for answering your Call and trusting me. My love for each of you and all of us swells my human heart past its walls and spills out to give my blood power back to the Land. Four Generations of embodied Priestesses of Avalon - linked together through Love, breathing together through our shared devotion. Dancing with Dragons. Restoring the Faerie Accord. Living as Heaven on Earth and creating the thriving future our children deserve. As Within, So Without. As Below, So Above. We have got you, Gaia! The Dragon Priestesses of Avalon are back! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Deepest bows of Gratitude to the Holy Isle and the Pendragons of Avalon for my life. May all that I am continue to serve your Holy Peace and Power, Holly Raphaella Morgana Photography by In Her Image https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/book-a-class daily 0.75 2021-10-01 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-orientation daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/links daily 0.75 2021-10-01 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-battle-raven daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-morgan-le-fey-sorceress daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-dragon-queen daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-shaper-of-all daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/alliance daily 0.75 2024-04-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/88c17aea-6b42-4d44-9b90-055cc75f6cfa/IMG_0612.JPG Alliance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/85f4b72a-324b-4f52-9614-47c4325b67dd/headshot.jpg Alliance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/639e49d2-9226-49ba-8b8b-2f0c58982a28/image003.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/0acd10bb-9664-4418-b7e0-de6169b0a9de/H55+%282%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/0a24e58f-d43c-425e-8017-76342d5f6db3/IMG-0479+%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/39fc5879-3f08-4c07-af16-c4e6f8d3323c/IMG_0256.jpg https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-phantom-queen daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional-washer-ford daily 0.75 2026-01-14 https://www.awakeningavalontemple.org/morgana-devotional daily 0.75 2024-11-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/1634931001327-J72UYAW2FNLI3B1H9NTW/A07ECC42-7B07-4393-A1B6-FAB68A85AE31_1_201_a+%284%29.jpeg Morgana Devotional - “All that is holy and true in the soul of humanity will always triumph.

She is a woman awake in her femininity and the power of the Goddess in her body temple. She is a spiritual activist doing the work of the Divine in the world. A seeker, a mystic, a poetess, a dancer, a lover, a warrior, a mother, a sorceress, a crone, the Priestess allows all of the ways of the Lady to live in her. She is a revolutionary force of kindness and compassion and strength and fortitude. Dancing with the elements, she practices self-love as a devotion to the Goddess. She listens. She responds. She is still and moving at the same time. From her connection to Source, she is a beacon of spirit and soul, radiating blessings around her and enlivening any being who comes into contact with her. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/e209d93a-f27c-4682-8481-baa42df38272/ChaliceWellSamhain+%282%29.jpg Priestess Path of Avalon - Everyone is the artist of their lives, and the Priestess is trained to become a devotional artist of service and healing. She is rooted in her internal relationship with spirit and from there she can do inspired work in the world. When a woman reclaims this archetype, she enters into seriously playful intimacy with the powers that create our lives. She frees herself from the domesticated mind and roams purposefully in the wilds of her heart, letting her authentic nature guide her. One of the names of the Goddess is, “She Who Hears the Cries of the World.” The Priestess does; she hears it, she feels it in her body, indelibly etched in her cells. It is the longing to merge fully with everything, and respond to the need for support. The Priestess has an inborn sense of responsibility - literally the “ability to respond,“ - which motivates her to a life of service. She cultivates her life as a practical mystic, being a leader by her radical choice to fully inhabit her feminine nature. The Priestess is a pillar of support and a chalice of guidance as humanity writes this next chapter of the Great Story. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6154a8357f81b264a7d77604/4158e4ac-5322-477e-9f39-302060e0de35/H36+%281%29.jpg Priestess Path of Avalon - The Priestess Path of Avalon with Awakening Avalon Temple The Priestess Path of Avalon is an incomparable 3-year journey of personal growth and spiritual evolution.
