The Winter Solstice is here to cover the land in a blanket of darkness. For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, it is the longest night of the year. To celebrate the occasion, I made this talk for you.
In it we will discuss:
🕯️ Winter Solstice & Winter’s beginnings
🕯️ The Creative Cycle
🕯️ The Womb of Winter, the Void
🕯️ Mary Oliver’s Poem Starlings in Winter
🕯️ A Lesson for the Season

Chris Maddox is the founder of The Wild Woman Project where she teaches women how to utilize the gifts of the Wild Woman Archetype in their everyday lives & how to lead women’s circles in their local communities. She is the organizer & facilitator of the beloved annual WILD WOMAN FEST, a women’s retreat-festival hybrid which fosters a deep connection to nature, a direct experience of the divine feminine & profound spiritual sisterhood among the women in attendance.
An ever student of the great mysteries of existence and nature itself, Chris believes women are holding innate gifts & tools that society at large needs – now more than ever. She is committed to helping women remember their special magic and to bring it forward into every corner of their lives, for the greater good of the planet.
