Winter Threshold Circle
Standing steady at the edge of a changing world
Winter is not a season of answers.
It is a season of reckoning, contraction and truth-telling.
What has been held together by effort begins to crack.
What has been denied, personally and collectively, presses closer to the surface.
with Sheila Bélanger • PCC
Archetypal Astrologer • Transformation Coach
This winter, many are feeling the weight of:
🌀 Collapsing systems
🌀 Intensifying control dynamics
🌀 Rising fear, polarization and un-metabolized shadow
🌀 A deep fatigue with false reassurance
The Winter Threshold Circle offers a place to stay present inside this reality—without hardening, bypassing or losing yourself.
This is not a retreat from the world. It is a way to remain oriented within it.
What This Winter Season Is About
Winter invites us into sobriety and discernment.
Not despair. Not forced hope. Not domination disguised as certainty.
In the Winter Threshold Circle, we work with:
Capricorn — authority, responsibility and the cost of control
Aquarius — collective patterns, freedom and future vision
Pisces — grief, compassion, dissolution and spiritual maturity
Together, these months ask:
What structures are no longer viable?
Where am I carrying authority that is not truly mine?
How do I stay humane when the world feels inhumane?
The Winter Rhythm
Each Threshold Circle season runs for three months, aligned with the zodiac and larger movements of collective time.
In the three months, you'll receive:
💫 Monthly Sky Wisdom Calls (Live + Replay)
One live call each month offering grounded orientation to the current astrological cycle. Winter calls on 4th Thursday of the month • 10 to 11:30 am Pacific (Jan 22 & Feb 26)
These calls focus on:
꩜ Naming collective and personal patterns honestly
꩜ Understanding how power, fear and longing move through us
꩜ Responding with responsibility rather than reactivity
Live attendance is welcome. Replays are included.
💫 Witnessing & Integration
Simple practices to help you locate yourself honestly:
꩜ Where am I tightening or withdrawing?
꩜ Where am I tempted to over-control—or disappear?
꩜ What wants to be met, rather than fixed?
This is not about self-improvement.
It is about self-relationship under pressure.
💫 Light Community Space
Between calls, the Circle gathers in a quiet online space for:
꩜ Brief seasonal check-ins
꩜ Reflection prompts
꩜ Shared threshold language
No oversharing.
No advice-giving.
No pressure to perform.
Companion Practices for the Season
At Village Edges Community (AVEC)
As part of the Winter Threshold Circle, you’ll receive access to Winter companion practices from At Village Edges Community—a seasonal library rooted in:
Earth Wisdom — grounding and steadiness when the ground feels unstable
Sky Wisdom — archetypal orientation to Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces
Everyday Dreamer Wisdom — listening to dreams, imagination, and subtle signals during times of change
These practices are offered as support, not as a program.
There is no required sequence, no expectation to keep up and no pressure to go deeper than is right for you.
Each month, one or two practices are gently highlighted as optional ways to stay with what is already unfolding.
WHO THIS CIRCLE IS FOR
You sense a chapter ending, with the next not yet formed
You want to stay present without bypass or blame
You’re tired of spaces that deny shadow or flatten reality
You value discernment, pacing and relational maturity
Supportive if you are sensitive to collective undercurrents and navigating real transition.
what This Circle Is Not:
Not therapy
Not crisis processing
Not a training or certification
Not transformation without engaged personal work
It is a place for conscious participation in change.
A Note About This Winter Gate
This Winter Threshold Circle opens during a cultural edge.
While the season begins at the Winter Solstice, our first live gathering takes place on January 22, as many of us emerge from the intensity and busyness of late December and the beginning of the calendar year.
To honor this reality:
• Capricorn month is included as a gift of orientation
• You will receive access to the full Winter Circle
• Winter pricing reflects payment for Aquarius and Pisces only
This is a one-time accommodation for this founding Winter season. Future seasons will open cleanly at their natural gateways. It is a way to remain oriented within it.
Is the Winter Threshold Circle Right for You?
This season may be supportive if:
• You feel the weight of collective change and want a place to orient honestly
• You are navigating authority, responsibility or exhaustion with control
• You want to remain humane without numbing or bypassing
• You value depth, pacing, and discernment
This Circle may not be the right fit if:
• You are seeking crisis support or therapy
• You want fast answers or certainty
• You need high-intensity facilitation
• You are not able to engage with complexity at this time
Choosing this Circle is less about readiness and more about willingness—to stay present, listen deeply and move at the speed of integration.
"While Sheila offers poignant paradigms and practices for the journey, the more potent alchemy comes from her own inner mastery and integration which shines through her teaching and guidance."

Your Guide to the journey
I’m Sheila Bélanger. I work at the edges of change—where familiar structures loosen and something new has not yet taken form.
My work weaves archetypal astrology, depth psychology,and earth-rooted wisdom to help people stay oriented, grounded, and inwardly sovereign during times of transition.
I don’t offer quick answers or promised outcomes. I offer a steady presence for those learning how to remain awake, humane and discerning as life reorganizes itself.
