HAVE YOU HEARD THEM?

The Ancient Weavers of Word Have Been

Drumming Us Awake Through Time!

Calling forth those with Eagle Eye and Dragon Wing to take The Poet’s Gift seriously.

they are:

pointing to the center fire that never dies.

pointing to the dusty loom ready for hands.

raising eyebrow at inverted structures.

whispering wiser ways through the roots.

We can move a lot with the right Rite words,” one, toothless, chuckles.

“Despite the absence of many Elders, the way is not lost,” another assures.

There are many seats within this Circle Way

each one, immeasurably valuable

but not every woman is called to take the seat of Leader.

Her seat is often the heaviest, hard-earned by way of blood, and not simple to maintain.

Yet, for those who are called to be Vessels of Beauty and Truth in a thirsty, polluted world;

who trust their feet on shifting terrain;

and believe in their bones that Poetry can help heal the world…

a Path Less Traveled Appears.

For most of us, the path to the Well of Living Word was not lined with roses.

Our Initiations into Seership, Oracular Gifts, and Channeling have come through the Warrior Way of profound sacrifice and hardship.

We have known exile, severance, traps, despair. Some of us, Death.

We tend the wounds of a broken world daily, and insist upon the liberation of our lineages from the technocratic, colonial, cannibalistic machine.

Our Collective Grief moves us to create change through Tender Compassion and Fierce Action.

Our devotion to remaining soft in love orients us to Serve Life with our intimate presence, received wisdom, and highest intelligence.

Growing into the role of Word Weaver and Sacred Writing Circle Facilitator brings honor to your journey, practicality to your passion, artistry to your every breath, and collaborative, sustainable healing impact to the world.

THE VALUE & IMPACT OF WRITING CIRCLES

Sacred Writing Circles are a uniquely powerful and sustainable

method for Personal Healing & Cultural Repair.

The only thing with a higher frequency than Love is Understanding.

Our ability to Communicate is what enables or prevents understanding.

One major reason our world is in crisis is because we lost the ability to hear and understand one another on a Soul level.

The Art of the Sacred Writing Circle goes far beyond women’s emotion sharing circles and invites women into specific methods of restoring their ability to Understand and Communicate their true Soul voice, the language of their bodies, their beliefs, boundaries, and choices.

The impact of this Arrival is life-changing and community-shaping.

Lead Guide - Noël Ruth, Founder of SAGA

My Journey of Leadership & Facilitating weaves a decade of self-study, communications industry education, and Grief Initiation with learning and mentorship from teachers, therapists, midwives, and elders.

  • 10+ years in Writing and Editorial positions for global and local non-profits, videographers, coaches, and women’s leaders - in both “conscious” and “unconscious” environments

  • 8+ years of leading Women’s Writing Circles and supporting women Authors

  • Effective Communications Training

  • Trauma-Aware Facilitator Training

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) Mentorship

  • Akashic Channeling Mentorship

  • Matriarchal Storytelling Mentorship

  • Somatic Embodiment Mentorship

  • Death Doula Mentorship after the death of my first child - my greatest Rite of Passage

  • Womb Mysteries of the Magdalene Path

I live my life in service to Women Poets, Mothers, Grievers, and Culture Makers. I live my life on the verge of tears and the island’s edge.

With one child Earthside and two in the Spirit Realm, I am a devoted Weaver and spiritual warrior who has been called to the raw, bedside altar of Death and the altar of Sustainable Creation through Living Word time and time again. Many times, I have been referred to as a Spiritual Midwife.

The Vision of SAGA came to me with global awareness — Sacred Women’s Circles need to be spread across the world for the liberation of the feminine voice, the reconstitution of matriarchal dignity, and the healing of our world. I cannot see this vision through alone.

For over three years, SAGA has been a growing Temple space, intimately serving over 100 women in nearly every continent to destroy the mythic voice-cage and birth the stories that will shape our Lives, Legacies, and Communities.

SAGA is an old Grandmother Tree Temple - who points back to a time of thriving Temples for Priestess Arts - born again on Earth during this time, and her root network seeks to extend far and wide to spread the Medicine of the Awakened, Embodied Word Weaver on Earth.

Will you join me and stitch our lives together, as women in service to Spirit, Culture, and Living Word?

  • You have created a phenomenon here, in SAGA... You have birthed a culture of sisterhood and love and freedom. You have planted a forest.

    — KAREN

  • The space that you, Noël, create exceeds any picture I had in mind... the rawness, the passion for life, and the unwavering will to grow; to transform obstacles on the path into medicine, into art, so they become fertile soil to walk upon. A space in which I hear the deep vibration of the womb. A space in which I taste the power of the feminine. A space in which I feel deep healing and transformation through words—medicine forged from the darkness that holds the potency of a new world.

    — INKEN

  • Saga is profoundly impactful. Noël is clearly channeling something with humility, power, connection, heart, and trust. Thank you for creating a space where we can fill our cups to the point where they overflow… all over the world.

Across many cultures - Norse, Celtic, Greek, Sumerian, Mesoamerican, Indigenous - there have always been women who served as Word Weavers: women who shaped reality through prayer, chant, lament, and story. These women wove the intangible -

  • recorded the dreams of the tribe

  • crafted laments and dirges for the dead

  • channeled poetry for Earth and Spirit

  • served as a bridge between communities, realms, paradigms

  • wrote prayers that carried families through famine and loss

  • shaped myth to guide communities through upheaval and war

  • spoke the words that no one else could speak

They carried the understanding that the written word, when born from the body, the bones, the wound, the wild, does not just describe experience. It alters it.

Word Weaving stands in a lineage far older than modern writing practices.
It echoes back to the women who wove reality with their breath, with their root network, attuned to culture and the space beyond time.

These women tracked the unseen with sacred sight and transposed into language as both medicine and map.

SAGA is born of this universal lineage of women who write from the sacred, the somatic, and the unseen. In this Lineage, we work with Living Word not just as self-expression, but as invocation. Far beyond journaling, we are devoted to the Art of Living Words as prayer-craft, soul-liberation, shadow-integration, culture-making.

SAGA is held by Spiritual & Physical Councils of Ancient Word Weavers. Together, we carry forth Writing as a ritual act of creative healing, a way of aligning the human with the Divine, the psyche with the primordial, the personal with the mythic.

Our Lineage of Ancient Word Weavers

  • Sitting with Noël at the Mother Altar was an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life. To anyone that has held life and death in their wombs and in their hands, I pray you find your way to Noël and receive the medicine of her holy offerings.

    — MADELINE

  • SAGA is such an important space to nurture the reverence I deeply crave. And the no-fluff / getting straight to the core essence of all of you and this community is a deep well of nourishment.

    — SELENA

  • Overflowing with gratitude for Saga - the container that holds me, awakens me, calls my wild woman forth, and sets my heart aflame weekly. Candles lit, babies at our breasts, hearts wide open, kneeling at the altar of womanhood, we write and through this ceremony we birth culture.
