bugs me a bit. Were there ever sisterhoods or sororities for the ladies out there? Are there any now? I feel drawn towards something a bit more
feminine, but have no idea where to begin to look. I am familiar with the earthen pagan path, which carries a belief in the feminine/goddess/earth
energies. I also believe in the importance of the masculine/ father sky/ sun, spiritual energies. I quess my question is if anyone is familiar with
any teachings around that carry these sort of beliefs? Any organizations? I feel dramn to being apart of something bigger than myself- I want to
learn, but have not a clue of where to look.
Thanks,

There's many SORORITIES and the like that you could join. Associated to masonry, for example, is the Order of the Eastern Star. Co-masonry is
considered "irregular", but admits both men and women. Amaranth is another women's organization, as are the Daughters of the Nile.
I'm sure there's also other sorority-type organizations that are not related to masonry, but I don't have muich knowledge of those, aside from
college sororities.
