SOVEREIGN
TRANSFORMATIONAL PARNTERSHIP
ENROLLMENT CLOSED
SOVEREIGN 2025 is an experimental program for those ready to explore deeper intimacy with themselves by expanding their view of 1:1 relationships beyond romance to include close friendships and business partnerships. Given the material's intensive nature, there is an application process, as the strength of the container determines its potency, and I take my responsibility as its steward seriously.
Transformation happens through weekly wisdom drops with exploratory exercises, and Sunday Circle meet-ups via Zoom, in which you’ll participate in group rituals, embodiment practices, and have opportunities to share your lived experience.
Together, we’ll map the subtle realm of our internal experiences and discover its impact on our real-world relationships. Each week builds upon the next as we traverse the seasons of Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, and Capricorn.
Build a new partnership paradigm.
SOVEREIGN is not group therapy or a program for healing deep relational wounds, but a space for breakthroughs and experimentation through sacred play, which honors the wisdom of your most important relationship, yourself. This is not an astrology course either, but we’ll use the zodiacal seasons as a natural rhythm to align with during our time together.
SOVEREIGN is a container for praxis, undoing, and unlearning unhelpful conditioning of the past by choosing differently and becoming on your terms. It is about acceptance, change, and transforming your sacred partnerships of the past, present, and future.
Between September 1st and 27th, my collaborator Leah and I will welcome five people who are ready to explore their belief systems, mental processes, and behavior patterns to conduct intuitive experiments and deepen their alignment with the truth of who they are alongside us. This is a potent partnership portal comprised of a SOVEREIGN SEVEN.
While esoteric expertise is not required, we recommend that applicants for the SOVEREIGN SEVEN have:
Desire to explore the often paradoxical structures of the mind and the nuance of belief
Commitment to the self, and the container, acknowledging what’s present and available
Reverence for the HOLY FOOL archetype, by embracing new experiences and embodying curiosity
Courage to dance with your dragons rather than slay them, and confront just how powerful you are
You are the one you’ve been waiting for.
“SOVEREIGN gave me practical concepts and tools to connect more deeply with myself and trust my own knowing. Being self-ruling means understanding where I stand, understanding my resources, and who I am.
I feel more in integrity with my truth and can feel clearer yeses and noes. I feel my interpersonal relationships have deepened because I am more authentic and actually don’t (low key) need their validation. This creates a deeper intimacy. This has been my journey this year, and SOVEREIGN was the perfect container and companion for it!
— Leah, 2025
What is sovereignty?
Sovereignty is a state of being, and SOVEREIGN is an offering to the Anima Mundi, or world soul.
Becoming SOVEREIGN means being whole unto yourself. You are not an island or lone wolf, but rather claiming your birthright to manage your thoughts, beliefs, energy, and actions independently.
Maintaining sovereignty skillfully in partnership with another takes practice, and our relationships provide us with endless opportunities for personal growth.
SOVEREIGN means not forming your self-concept around what someone else wants you to be, thereby nurturing the authentic self within—ultimately being available to partner, interdependently with the world around you as it is in this moment.
We lay the groundwork for our future relationships here and now.
“Slow Magick's SOVEREIGN container was the exact medicine I needed to help me traverse the intense junctures we are facing as sentient (and otherwise) beings. Erin's ability to meet folks where they are, challenge your mode of thinking in a non-combative and/also supportive manner is beyond palpable from the moment you encounter her aura.”
— Lily, 2024
THE CIRCLE OF SEVEN
The format creates space for an individual experience with the support of a community, as no two experiences will be identical. This container, in its second iteration, consists of the following:
SOVEREIGN SUNDAYS
Hail, Bright Ones and Shining Stars!
The CIRCLE OF SEVEN awaits!
Join us as we meet most Sundays at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET via Zoom from September 28 through December 14, 2025, except the last Sunday in October (10/26) and November (11/30) to create space for integration. Commitment to the weekly Circle meetings is essential, as our curated coterie will weave a web of mutual support to raise and multiply our collective magick. We remain SOVEREIGN, though, so while we create space for and witness each other, we are not here to ‘fix’ or offer unsolicited advice. Our Sunday Circle programming will vary between group ritual, embodiment practices, and shared reflection.
Attendance at the Circle meet-ups is a requirement, and if you cannot make at least 9 out of the 11 live meetups, it is likely not the time for you.
WEEKLY WISDOM
Each week, I share the practices, lessons, and material I’ve developed throughout my SOVEREIGN journey. This is my personal gnosis, offered as a starting place for exploring and getting to know your own. Scroll down for the course outline if you want to learn more. I will reveal the Weekly Wisdom between Circle meet-ups, which will likely be on Mondays, but this is a grace I am offering myself as a creative.
PERSONAL PRACTICE
This is how we do it: one foot in front of the other. There is so much magick in the mundane. In addition to the observation framework shared in the Libra Season module, you’ll be given options for integration into your everyday life for the time in between the Circle Meet-Ups. This is an experimental space, so your personal practice may transform along with you.
My need for certainty, sameness, and control impacted my ability to receive what was readily available in all of my 1:1 partnerships.
I sometimes struggled in my close relationships as an adult. They often felt one-sided and unsatisfying.
Turns out, I was unknowingly blocking reciprocity and intimacy.
My path to sovereign interdependence began to materialize after I spent time finding out what I actually wanted and needed based on what my values actually were, not what I thought they should be.
Next came a slow but steady process of communicating and pursuing those desires, rather than choosing the route that would ‘protect’ me from facing the possibility of being disliked. Over time, I worked through my fears of abandonment and rejection.
Self-Commitment is HOT AF.
Showing up for myself in this way radically changed me. I found a portal to the life and relationships I wanted. I made many mistakes, but I slowly grew in strength and confidence, step by step. I discovered the slow and exquisite magick of blooming late.
Check out 2025’s program outline below.
Virgo Season
-
Access opens September 21st at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET.
This portion contains recommended pre-work consisting of course logistics, preparatory self-exploration work on setting up your personal energetic container within this one, and a recommended altar build to prepare you for SOVEREIGN in the week before the program starts.
Libra Season
-
During the opening ceremony, we’ll introduce ourselves, formally set intentions, and share a group ritual to consecrate your holy book of personal gnosis for this program.
Weekly Wisdom I involves exploring your sacred desire as part of the generative impulse of creation and understanding its relationship to the macrocosm and microcosm.
A SOVEREIGN knows their desire is holy, and while your desire may shift and transform by the end of this program, this is my favorite place to start.
-
Weekly Wisdom II explores your past and begins to craft your Origin Story.
This is where we go back to the beginning and make meaning or redefine the catalyzing events of our lives. Season One of the TNIT podcast has focused on these themes, and Erin has refined a framework for exploration.
We all have wounds and are all made up of stories, and a SOVEREIGN tells one that breaks through limits to become the lore of legends and inspire the next generation.
-
Weekly Wisdom III delves into the realm of belief.
Both conscious and unconscious beliefs drive our thoughts, emotions, and behavior to manifest reality and aid or prevent our ability to change our lives. If you’ve moved through some or all of your midlife transits, you’ve likely had some experience with it already. Here, we take a deeper dive, and Erin shares her framework for observation.
A SOVEREIGN recognizes when they are out of alignment with their truth.
-
Weekly Wisdom IV involves experimenting with your strategy to choose differently in your daily life by creating space in the present moment and changing how you respond to themes of urgency and either/or thinking. This practice is a powerful portal.
Folks who are SOVEREIGN are open to the secret third thing that emerges from creating space for exploration. The entire program is a liminal space.
Scorpio Season
-
Weekly Wisdom V begins exploring the relationship between your material resources, skills, and talents and those that are shared in your 1:1 partnerships. We’ll utilize the 1st, 2nd, 7th, and 8th astrological houses in this exercise. While familiarity with astrology and tarot will be helpful, it is not a requirement.
This is one of the most potent activations of this program and will continue to unfold in your life long after this program is finished.
When you are SOVEREIGN, you know that life and death are inextricably linked and are two sides of the same coin.
-
Weekly Wisdom VI deepens our connection and relationships with the more-than-human world around us and a contemplation of what it means to be in relationship with another sentient being.
We'll explore different ways to craft rituals and a devotional practice to nurture these sacred connections.
A SOVEREIGN knows they are never truly alone.
This Sunday, we take a break from our weekly meet-up.
-
Weekly Wisdom VII explores your sphere of influence and what it means to wield your sword with skill from a strong foundation. From buidling boundaries to enforcing them, we’ll look at all of the places in between.
SOVEREIGNS are in a healthy relationship with their personal power and engage it when needed.
-
Weekly Wisdom VIII invites your demons to tea through an exploration of the Shadow Self; you may be surprised to learn what treasure they’ve patiently held for you.
A SOVEREIGN is courageous.
Sagittarius Season
-
After a significant loss, Erin spent a season working for a funeral home where she learned a lot about death and dying but so much about grief.
Weekly Wisdom IX explores and meditates on seasons of grief in many forms, going beyond the death of a loved one.
We'll also explore thematic cycles of rebirth and renewal, composting, and transformation.
A SOVEREIGN understands that grief is a wise teacher.
-
Weekly Wisdom X will help us prepare to successfully crystallize a desired partnership in our material world by initiating a cycle of deep listening.
Listening through our bones to the Great Lady Under Earth from which we came, to know if it is the right time to begin, and that we are in the right place to start.
But where do we listen? In this contemplation, we'll experiment with ways to hear the melody of our heart’s desire encoded within our bones.
This involves exploring your connection to the you of the future—the wise one who already knows what to do.
SOVEREIGNS understand the power of naming and claiming who they are.
This week, we’ll take a break from our council meet-up.
-
Contemplation XI offers a look at your personal seasonal cycles contained in the sacred dance of the Sun and Moon.
A SOVEREIGN understands their seasons of life.
-
The Circle’s last official meet-up will consist of a group offering, ritual, and celebration as we close the container.
A SOVEREIGN celebrates all that they are, all that they were, and all they ever will be.
Capricorn Season
-
This final wisdom contains Erin's personalized message, reflection, and benediction to carry you beyond this container.
May it be a beacon of truth for you to return to as you take what you've learned into the world.
