I seed a vision:
sisters being in circles globally,
in the frequency of the Priestess Presence Temple.
I see: a crystal light grid ignited by our presence.
We remember our ancient, sacred arts.
We hold space for transformation, healing.
We listen, dream, and catalyze new stories.
We devote ourselves to the nourishment of our soul.
You are invited to join us for a four month Temple Guide Training where you’ll receive practical skills and support so you can confidently create temple circles in your community.
I imagine you’re mission-driven and have a deep heart-desire to bring sacred ceremony and ritual into your life and share it with others.
…Perhaps you haven’t known where to start.
…Maybe the details of finding temple participants and organizing a circle has felt overwhelming.
You’re missing the structure and support to help you from inspiration/idea to magnetizing members, to logistics and organizing, to facilitating the circle, and actualizing the whole process into completion.
…You may even wonder if you’re “qualified” to be a temple guide and hold space in this way.
During the Temple Guide Training, you’ll access 30+ years of Elayne Kalila’s knowledge around facilitating temple circles so that you can confidently offer them in your community in a way that honors your unique spiritual gifts—passed onto you through your blood and archetypal ancestors.
Come Behind the Scenes of the Priestess Presence Temple & Learn the Processes We Use to:
- Lead Circles & Workshops
- Create Sacred Ceremony & Rituals
- Hold Energy
- Guide Transformational Journeys
- Work with Archetypal & Alchemical Story
- Support Transformation
Sister, if you have been looking to combine personal alchemy with hands-on training, distilling powerful sacred technology into bite-sized skill sets that will be immediately applicable to your life, then this training is for you.
CONFIDENTLY CREATE POWERFUL,
ONLINE CEREMONIES
We understand there is a deep need to be with one another,
to receive collective wisdom, and nourish our souls.
When we gather, we remember who we truly are.
Throughout millenia, as women, we have joined together in ceremony.
In our blood, we know that ceremony interconnects us to the web of all life—one another, Source, the land, and our ancestors. This provides the opportunity to receive the wisdom to navigate life—in all its stages.
When we gather, we remember our healing ways.
We witness one another in our grief, mourning, celebration, and ecstasy.
Together, we honor and experience all of life, fully, navigating times of uncertainty and rebirth.
Learn, step-by-step,
exactly how to confidently create temple circles
so you can deeply connect with your sisters & create transformational space:
online or in-person.
Here’s What They Say…
When we are clear about our purpose and gifts—and have training—we can create transformational temple spaces to be in communion with others with confidence.
Here’s What They Say…
“The beauty and richness of this offering helped me create a clearer framework for my creation of temple circles.”
Michele Gagnier
“Thank you for this work; so beautiful. WOW! I am blown away. I just started my first circle, so I am excited to deepen into how to hold it.”
Jacquie Shenton
What I got was:
- Confirmation of many of my ideas, feelings and ways forward.
- Strategies to further develop meaningful rituals that will help connect with GodDESS/Spirit/Universe.
- Strategies to re-conceptualize ‘worship.’
- Strategies to acknowledge, express, and let go of internalization of earth’s crises and the imbalance/lack of justice in the universe.
And certainly not least, I got a sisterhood. And a tribe. And some BFFs. And prayer partners. And muses. These relationships are so powerful and so precious to me.
I appreciate Temple Guide Training for being the ‘focalizer’ of the energies necessary to bring us together.
Dr. Claretta Von Dupree
“I found the Temple Guide Training to be most helpful to me in moving my spiritual offerings from in person venues to the digital world. It confirmed that Spirit moves, wherever it is, even online! The training also provided clear, step-by-step practical information about how to set up an online temple and maintain it. I learned about the power and support that come from being in community with other like-spirited sisters. But most important were the teachings and practices about being a Temple Guide and the inner work and resonance with Spirit that are actually the ‘quintessential’ foundation for doing this work.”
Dr. Linda Lee
WHAT IS THE TEMPLE GUIDE TRAINING?
This is a comprehensive (certificate) training offered by the Priestess Presence School of Priestess Arts & Training that supports you to remember and relearn the ancient skills and sacred technologies of temple circle.
The Temple Guide Training provides practical, step-by-step teachings, tools, and activations to support you to step into the role of “Temple Guide.”
During our 4 months together (year-long, if you choose the certificate level), you’ll be empowered to further activate your unique Priestess role within your family, community, and business.
Along the way, you’ll be given sacred technologies, templates, frameworks, and guidance to help you embrace your soul calling so that you can fully embody the ceremonial leadership gifts inherent to you.
By doing so, you’ll naturally “lead” and hold circles in a way that is most aligned with who you truly are.
Here’s What They Say…
“After completing the Temple Guide Training, I feel really amazed and really powerful … I went from not being able to talk to anyone about this work with, to having a new moon temple every month, deepening with the archetypes. Now, I have ideas for paid programs … so I’m making plans to start expanding my market.”
Robyn Youngjohn
“One thing that I incredibly value, particularly through your guidance, is the integration of all the psychological, trauma awareness, group dynamics, and relational dynamics. This creates a refined attunement that it takes to really create a different experience, offering space for a different experience for a lot of women and people that have often been a place of wounding in relationships and in groups.”

“The whole program has been monumentally impactful in my life, but I want to say that actually deepening into the nine core priestessing skills was a life changer. There was something about being held in a space where I could rewind, listen to that again, write a note about it. It was helpful for me to journal as I watched the videos. Then I was able to test some of my own limiting beliefs around my abilities around those skills—That was profound learning for me. I felt grounded learning and then directly applying the skills.”

LEADING YOU ON THIS JOURNEY:
LETTER FROM ELAYNE KALILA
I am Elayne Kalila, Gatekeeper and Focalizer of the Priestess Presence Temple, a dedicated temple of the 13 Moon Mystery School™. I have the great privilege and challenge to steward and guide this temple.
I have a mission to serve in a more impactful way … you might feel the same. Perhaps you, too, are mission driven, devoted to serve and heal.
…But there is also a way that we are needing to be held in a grounding structure so that we can amplify our vision and be accountable to what we create.
Our Priestess Presence School of Sacred Arts does just that.
Priestess Presence—the essence of this temple and school—is a defined pathway to remember your sacred role of being a changemaker.
When more and more sisters come together to run temple circles, more and more women will awaken their awareness of their purpose, their essence, and walk the path of love.
I believe walking the Priestess Path is about being willing to dedicate ourselves to deepening our practice so that we can be present and serve the world.
I am passionate about opening the ancient mysteries of the Divine Feminine into our modern lives so we can all step more fully into serving from a place of love, presence, and purpose.
Because of the teachings of the Divine Feminine through the 13 Moon Mystery School™ (where I trained … and this temple is part of that lineage), I have been able to priestess in an extremely vast array of environments; from some of the most dangerous and violent areas of the world, like the Congo,
In those places, I have supported women to activate and remember their truth and power. I offer a real path of presence, empowerment, and transformation through awakening the Priestess within you.
That is why I am delighted and honored to invite you to join me to amplify our blessings, be in sacred circle with sisters, and bring the Goddess into the modern-day context of your life.

REPARATIONS
The Priestess Presence Temple & School of Sacred Arts is located on the unceded and traditional territory of the Nisenan Tribe. We honor this ancestral land and its original people. We give thanks for our ability to hold the space for this temple on their sacred land.
The area of Nevada City, California, where the temple resides, was repeatedly taken from the Nisenan people, without compensation or regard for the lives of the original people; and now, they have no land left.
The temple acknowledges it is on the ancestral homelands of the Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan Tribe. The Temple acknowledges we are settlers here—that we live, love, and work on land the Nisenan never ceded.
In order to help amend the tragic legacy, the temple provides a monthly contribution to recognize the sovereignty of the Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan and acknowledge their historic relationship with this land, their ancestral homelands. We give to CHIRP—CALIFORNIA HERITAGE: INDIGENOUS RESEARCH PROJECT. It was created to research, document, preserve, and protect California Indigenous Nisenan culture.
We are committed to translating spiritual concepts into devoted service and walking our talk.
The temple commits to being an anti-racist, inclusive space that honors all diversity. This includes: looking at and dismantling our privilege in all aspects of systemic racism, white supremacy, institutional/cultural imperialism, while alchemizing the truth that we, too, are One (without bypassing). As such, we feel it’s crucial to be informed on the past and ongoing consequences of colonialism.
We encourage everyone to learn about the history of the lands they’re on and support Indigenous resistance here and across Turtle Island. Learn more about the Nisenan peoples here and here.
