This means they’re credentialed to offer sacred circles online or in-person in a way that’s aligned with the frequency of Priestess Presence School of Sacred Arts & Temple.
These incredible women have completed intensive study and mentorship to create and hold sacred, long-lasting transformational space.
They’re permitted to use temple flows/templates that offer an introduction to the 13 Divine Feminine archetypes transmitted in the 13 Moon Mystery School lineage; however, unless they’re also focalizers of the 13 Moon Mystery School lineages, they will not initiate, ordain, or teach the works of the 13 Moon Mystery School.
Becoming a certified temple guide (and practicing the 13 Moon Mysteries each day) has changed my life in that it ignited the very gift I came here to share with other women just like me = showing them the way beyond the fire.
Just like I explore the raw truth and beauty of others, it is because I was invited to get real and get right with that within myself, that has allowed me to now extend it to other powerful women ready to rediscover and redefine their roles as leaders, empty nesters, artists, and caregivers.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide has changed my life
by living in mystical ceremonies in all areas of my life and how I guide others in sacred Temple offerings with empowerment, love, and beauty.
As a certified temple guide
I have more confidence in my ability to hold sacred space for others and to usher them through their own spiritual journey and empower them.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide, has supported me to step into more confidence as a facilitator and Priestess of my Temple spaces.
It has offered to me a formula for sacred space, that is translatable across many of my own offerings. Stepping into a visible leadership role is not something I ever though I would do as a chronically shy individual. However, I find that showing up in Temple space is where I naturally thrive in my leadership.
Becoming a certified temple guide
provided me with bonafide training that has helped me to consciously and confidently hold powerful alchemical containers and transformative ceremonial space.
I signed up for the Temple Guide Training 30 days after my early retirement, not knowing anything about what the Goddess represented or what the temple experience was.
I only knew it felt like home and my soul was calling me there. It has transformed my life as I learned to shed the ego mind that made me successful, and learn to feel into the heart consciousness that help me to open up to love, surrender control and practice inward focus.
The experience of becoming a Temple Guide transformed and empowered me on many levels. I was “holding” the circle and being the “expert with all the answers.”
Now, I co-create the container with the Divine and the other sisters so the circle holds all of us, myself included. Now, I confidently rest in knowing that I don’t have to have all the answers; I have to know how to create and maintain a safe and potent alchemical container and support the participants in accessing their own inner wisdom.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide gave me a deep inner confidence to continue to grow and evolve in my spiritual path.
The training helped me first discover and tend my own inner temple and this continues to be a practice I turn to again and again. It also helped me hold space to guide others to this deep resource of wisdom as I became a Mentor in this program. Being part of the original team was a great joy, not only because I loved the experience of co-creating this, but because it gave me one of my first experiences of creation in synarchy.
Becoming a Temple Guide has given me a deep mastery of how to hold circle spaces and temples that anchor in the sacred.
There is such a defined difference in the circles I hold having been trained as a Temple Guide – such a safety in the space, such a resonance and cohesion of the energy. Temple Guide Training has enabled me to fully trust my intuition and know exactly what is needed from tending the energy of the temple to knowing exactly what symbolic ritual would bust through a certain block!
Becoming a certified temple guide expanded my skills in priestessing, group facilitation, teaching, and self-awareness.
This training encouraged me to transition my business to a more intuitive and heart-centered approach. It provided structure for developing skills I hadn’t previously focused on, helping me refine my intuition in practical ways. This journey allowed me to sharpen my intuitive abilities and better serve others.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide boosted my skills and confidence immeasurably.
It was an extraordinary training program that elevated my awareness and leadership techniques to new heights. Not only did I learn so much, I’m now connected to a community of Priestesses that continues to support and inspire me. I’m eternally grateful to Elayne Kalila and Priestess Presence for providing the guidance and mentorship I needed to thrive in this sacred vocation.
I took a leap of faith and stepped into Temple Guide Training in what would become the embodied remembrance of being a Priestess in service to the sacred feminine.
Becoming a certified temple guide opened the pathway for me to step into my fullest expression as a channel of Her love. As a certified temple guide, I was able to confidently step into offering sacred feminine temple circles where I was no longer caught in the shadow of perfection.
I remembered my ancient lineages, and gifts and stepped into the power I didn’t know I possessed and shared the medicine that lay deep in my bones that I was afraid of sharing.
I have gone from being a victim, feeling powerless, ungrounded, and unworthy to stepping into my power, being sovereign, and able to boldly create my dreams into being fully embodied, alive, and magical. Freedom, liberation from the past, and reclaiming my divine magical child.
Becoming a Temple Guide has changed my life at every level, it was a deep process of remembrance, which I danced with, and at some levels, at some points held resistance to!
Following certification, being able to hold sacred space, and support others in their re-connection to their divinity, at this uniquely transitional period, is not only deep honour, but has impacted me on a cellular level. Priestessing has gifted me the rediscovery of every moment and soul as sacred, and precious.
Becoming Certified as a Temple Guide expanded me deeply in my confidence to lead others and my power to create potent spaces for transformation.
It gave me a blank template and structure to pour my magic into and the backing of the thousands of women who have come before me as a net of love and grace to lean into. I’m deeply empowered and honored to have received this training and to be shining my beacon as a member of this temple, which is my home.
As a sister who moves in the realms of the Mystic, I am often in the role of hearth-keeper, tending the fires of another’s soul journey.
Becoming certified as a Temple Guide, throughout the training, and now beyond, it is as though I now have a clear view of how to tend the fires of my soul’s journey with the perspective of what my offerings are in the world. This has been a life changing ‘new view’ of my own potential, and how to tap into it readily, with crystal clear clarity.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide has allowed me to deepen into the capacity of creating sacred space amplifying the coherence of a particular quality
such that it is the resonance of a quality of Essence that grounds the alchemical work done in this space. It has increased the potency of the work I do with individuals and groups exponentially.
Becoming a Certified Temple Guide gave me the tools and skills I needed to begin sharing my gifts in the way my soul longed for.
It showed me the deep transformative spaces we can create for each other and provided a channel for my love that felt authentic, empowering and life-affirming for myself and those I serve.
We believe that before you can effectively create & hold sacred space for others, you must experience the alchemy that comes from personal initiation and shadow work.
We believe that after personal shadow work & becoming skilled at holding space for yourself & others, you can enter a commitment to devotional service.
We believe that after a sufficient amount of inner alchemy/shadow work so that you can hold yourself through challenges, you can begin to hold space for others in a resonant & coherent way.

Having joined TGT this year, I have had the most wonderful experiences of permission to live a bigger life in my devotion to the divine feminine, I literally have come out of the attic of my house into my world as a living, breathing, walking temple, I trusted Priestess Presence with a very intimate part of my interior life that held my deepest devotion; they have held, nurtured, and witnessed me with such holding at times it’s taken my breath away.

I chose the certificate level because I wanted credibility. I was ready to take that step. I gained a very clear structure on how to plan and guide temples. I now have the skills to create coherent curriculums, and to actually bring those into my sacred business.
