Birth the Temple of Sacred Arts in Seattle
Donation protected
Beloved,
Thank you for being here. Together, we are going to co-create "the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible" - in the words of Charles Eisenstein.
To do this, we have been gifted the vision to create a TEMPLE of remembrance.
A Temple of communion.
Of ritual, magick, healing, & embodiment.
Of integration, inclusivity, & honor
A Temple of Beauty, Truth & Love.
A Temple of Sacred Unity.
And we are going to build it together. As a prayer woven from each of our heart strands, infused with our love, our devotion, our incredible gifts & our precious energy. We are all unique and invaluable puzzle pieces. And it is our intention to birth a Temple that helps us put our puzzle pieces together so that we may truly thrive. To make a communal masterpiece of medicine & healing for the body & soul. A place where the magic of each of our souls, can inspire and pollinate eachother's most beautiful becoming!
And we recognize that our world & planet is currently in a severe state of distress & disharmony. We acknowledge that much of this imbalance comes from the feminine-masculine relationship within us, between eachother, and extending into the feminine-masculine aspects of God/dess. We are in a time of a great feminine awakening on this planet - that is occurring within us all regardless of gender or identity. And so, woven into fabric of this Temple, is the intention to uplift & empower the women who are embodying this feminine awakening, who can be wayshowers & vessels for our community healing, as we come back into right relationship. We have a deep prayer in our hearts to bring the feminine & masculine back into loving harmonious co-creation & sacred union.
We imagine a world in which humanity is living in right relationship with the Earth, walking the Beauty Way, in service to Love and the Circle of Life. We believe the best way to realize this reality is to cultivate & nurture a modern priestesshood of embodied feminine leaders, creatrixes & wayshowers, devoted to the Goddess, in shamanic apprenticeship with the Womb Mysteries, studying the codes of creation, practicing the ancient sacred arts & and channeling the wisdom and medicine we need to guide us through the Great Turning.
To house this guild of emerging priestesses we have accepted stewardship of the formerly known “Sacred Embodiment Center” The Sacred Embodiment Center in Capitol Hill has been an important locus of events, workshops, trainings, and a spiritual home for the Sacred Embodiment Community (SEC) over the past several years. We are taking on the stewardship of the Center as the newly formed *Ministry of the Eternal Rose*. Borrowing words from the SEC “We bow to the teachers and teachings and offer infinite gratitude to all those who carry the traditions forward for the benefit of all beings.” We bow to those who have carried them this far.
In this re-birthing portal, at this time we wish to let our prayer be known. It is with a leap of faith and a humble ask that we call upon your generous hearts. We ask into our community to consider the importance of feminine held spaces, for there to be an anchor of nourishment with temple doors open for communal and personal healing and for temple tenders to be empowered in their livelihood so that they may give their gifts fully and offer themselves wholly unto this path.
The goal for our Temple to reach is $25,000.
**Where the Money will Go**
- $2,500 - October 1st Rent Shortage
- $2,400 - PMA Setup Fee
- $5,000 - 1 months overhead in savings (as a buffer for the holiday months & transition)
- $4,500 - Deposit for the Building
- $2,500 - Reimbursement for Shari Garzelli who poured nearly 20,000 dollars of her personal money into keeping the Sacred Embodiment Center alive during the pandemic.
- $10,000 - Renovation, Redesign & Temple Adornment - (visionary artwork & commissioned pieces from community artists, new signage, healing tools for community use, fine fabrics, unique furniture pieces, backjacks, rugs, plants, candles, lighting, artisanal sacred objects, etc.)
- any additional funds will go towards small stipends to bless & nourish those of us who will be contributing hundreds of hours of love & energy into managing the Temple.
We are confident at becoming financially solvent through the offerings and events of the Temple, as we build a robust calendar of events, nest some new practitioners in the space, and build our membership base... We aren't too far away, but we need some support to get there.
As we tend the financial eco-system of our Temple, it is our hearts intent to keep as much money in our practitioners hands by keeping our rates as accessible for practitioners as possible. This means a deep honor of the beautiful gifts that are being offered here and a stable foundation for them to rise upon. And in turn, making our practitioners offerings as financially accessible to our community as well.
We are also asking for donations of adornments - altar cloths, silks, candles, sacred objects, lighting, wood carved statues, beautiful plateware, platters, silverware, and goblets, etc. Check out the vision board on our website to get ideas of what we are looking for.

For the craftspeople, artists, and makers who would love to bless the space with your creations, get in contact with us about donations or exhibiting at the Temple.
Please consider a 1-time donation as well as an ongoing monthly love contribution via our Patreon membership options, to help us create peace of mind & financial flow for the Temple of Sacred Arts ecosystem. $8+ We pray that those invested in this community will find great reward in becoming a monthly Patreon donor.
If you do not feel able to financially or materially donate at this time but believe in the necessity of this work to reach as many hearts as possible, please share, and directly send to people you know connect with this frequency.
For the honoring, healing and liberation of our ancestors from all our lineages. To the remembrance of the feminine power to hold the healing hearts of all beings. For mama Gaia and all her creatures and the return of right relationship of human and nature. To the restoration of the divine union of masculine and feminine embodied in all humans and all our relations. To returning to the highest frequency of love, pleasure, respect and knowing self as divine creator.
We are so grateful to each of you. We cannot do this without you. We do this all for you. We love you, we honor you, we thank you.
