Lorraine Simone, M.S. Ed. in Environmental Science, is a visionary and belovedteacher who effectively bridges the gap between living a spiritual life and the nitty-gritty of Western culture’s “world of things.” In 1990, Ms. Simone founded Moonfire Meeting House on Eastern Long Islandand dedicated it to creating community and living in harmony with Earth.Lorraine established a Women’s Ways Empowerment Circle that year and openedThe Women’s Ways Mystery School in 1995 to offer Rites of Passage and otherSpiritual Initiations to girls and women of all ages and backgrounds. With humorand devotion, she designs and offers programs, such as Shamanic Visioning in theNew Year, Compassion-in-Communication, A Goddess for All Seasons andImpeccable Warrior Training for men only. She also teaches workshops that bringto life her expertise in Deep Ecology, Healing Arts, Women's Mysteries, CreationSpirituality, and Shamanic Practices. Lorraine's search for personal and planetary balance through communion withEarth and the ways of the sacred feminine has led her to Native elders and teachersfrom many traditions. When she opened her New York City retail store, PlanetEarth, in 1985, she met Oh Shinnáh Fast Wolf, a renowned Apache-Mohawkteacher, with whom she maintained an apprenticeship for more than 40 years. OhShinnáh dreamed the Spirit name Deep Arrow Woman for Ms. Simone, as is thetradition of her people, and performed a naming ceremony for her. Today, DeepArrow Woman initiates her own apprentices who form the lifeline of MoonfireMeeting House and the Women’s Ways Mystery School. Lorraine is committed to keeping alive and making available to her community thesacred ways and ceremonies that many Earth-honoring teachers have given her,including the Sacred Sojourn into the Land of Changing Woman. This is a 10-dayancient medicine journey and initiation ceremony into sacred waters of theAmerican Southwest that was passed on to Lorraine from her teacher, OhShinnah. Lorraine recently created a deck of cards to introduce, inspire, validate, transformand guide people through the mysteries of the Universe called “Affirming CosmicLaws of Creation.” She packaged it with a power pouch that contains all the itemsnecessary to conduct a Welcome Ritual to deepen their connection with thewisdom of these Laws.
