Decommodifying women’s gathering.
Reclaiming wisdom sharing as a birthright.
At the Womb Web Ceremony, we are dreaming beyond the transactional systems of capitalism — where everything is bought and sold — and returning to the ancient, living practices of reciprocity and right-relationship.
This gathering is not a product to consume — it is a prayer to co-create.
We are reweaving the web of community, where participation is not something you pay for — it is something you take part in.
Your presence is a thread in the weave.
Your offering — whether in time, energy, skill, care, or money — is what nourishes the whole.
We are shifting from an individualist, capitalist system to an ecosystem —
a living, breathing village where we support each other according to capacity, need, and natural law.
Where we are not only held by the web, but contribute to it.
Where we circulate, rather than accumulate.
Where worth is not measured in dollars, but in connection, care, and contribution.
As we decolonise our approach to value, we honour that financial wealth is only one form of abundance.
We invite you to tune into what you have to give, and trust that it is enough.
In the spirit of Napaji Napaji (reciprocity in Bundjalung language), we invite you to consider:
What do I have access to that could support the whole?
How can I weave myself into this web through action, service, or offering?
How can I honour the real costs of this gathering in a way that is aligned with my current capacity?
This is not a ticketed event in the traditional sense — it is a sacred act of co-creation. To honour the integrity and sustainability of our gathering, we invite each participant to contribute in three interconnected ways, according to your capacity:
Financial Contribution — to help cover shared costs such as cultural acknowledgement, food, elder care, and materials, with transparent tiers that reflect your current means. (From $50 - your own choice)
Service Role — by stepping into a role that helps weave and hold the village, from setup to fire tending, nourishing meals, childcare and more.
Resource Offerings — through the gifting or sourcing of practical items like food, shelter, furnishings, or tools that support the flow and beauty of the space.
This is reciprocity, not charity. Participation in place of Purchase. Community in place of Commodity. You are not a consumer here — you are a thread in the web.

Weaving Our Collective Presence
At the heart of this ceremony is the understanding that we are the wisdom. Each woman carries medicine—through her story, her hands, her gifts.
The Yarning Circles invite us to share and listen as equals, weaving insight across generations. On Marketplace Day, we offer our own creations, tools, and services—creating a living web where synchronicities spark, and the right teachings find the right hands.
Your presence is a contribution. Whether through a service role, a donation, or sharing your gifts—you are helping to weave the whole.
Join the Ceremony
By offering our time, presence, skills, and stories, we activate a field of collective wisdom and remembrance.
Together, we are not just attending a ceremony — we are becoming the ceremony.
We welcome your thread.
