Elana Auerbach is a heart centered and gifted spiritual guide. Her own journey of remembrance and embodiment informs her work with others. Having spent her young adulthood getting a degree in Mathematics, as a management consultant, and as a banker on Wall Street, Elana knows intimately what it is to be in a place of soul disconnection (or as she puts it, “on the conveyor belt of life”) and then, to wake up and discover a path of ecstatic and embodied service.
Elana has been leading circles for over 14 years and has been mentoring with Ariel Spilsbury for more than 12 years. Elana is a Hebrew Priestess, practicing earth based Judaism, as well as a dedicated student of Zen. Elana weaves these three spiritual traditions into a beautiful tapestry that illuminates her work and guides her moment by moment awakening.
As a 13 Moon focalizer, Elana wields the sword of truth with compassion and clarity. Elana brings body based practices to the expanded awareness experience in circle, to support initiates in truly embodying, in their own unique way, the 13 Moon Archetypes. She also brings a strong focus on cultivating lineage gifts and engaging in daily practices so the awareness and insight you have in circle, permeate the rest of your life.
The services Elana provides as an Ordained Priestess include:
1) Life Transition Ceremonies including Officiating Weddings (including the Inner Marriage), Rites of Passage ~ Menarche, Pre~Birth Ceremony (for a Child or another Creation), Baby Blessing, etc.
2) Mediation Initiation ~ Elana creates a sacred container where conflict and separation become an occasion for awakening and intimacy.
