RCG-I Membership

Membership in the Re-formed Congregation of the Goddess, International is open to all women who declare themselves on a positive path of spiritual growth. To become a member all you have to do is type your name; but the simple act of typing your name can be a deeply meaningful decision. Becoming a member of the Congregation is a way of making a personal commitment to focus on the process of discovering yourself as a Goddess woman.

Inscribing your name will not transform you instantly into a different or more spiritual person. Being a member of the Congregation can be accomplished in an instant, but how it shapes your life is part of an ongoing process of exploration, discovery and experience that is up to you. Your name is a symbol of your willingness to investigate your spirituality in positive, life-affirming ways, of seeking to know Goddess and our earth connections from a perspective which is both ancient and contemporary.

The Congregation is dedicated to those who wish to explore a positive path of spiritual development. This philosophy of spiritual development is expressed in the Affirmation of Women's Spirituality. Those wishing to join the Congregation must read and consider the Affirmation. Considering the Affirmation challenges you to define your spiritual beliefs.

The Congregation encourages the independent investigation of truth. If you find, after considering the Affirmation, you are primarily in agreement with it, or are willing to explore your areas of uncertainty, we will welcome you into the Congregation.

Women's religion is gathering strength as each woman who shares this religious perspective makes the commitment to become a member and find her own ways to celebrate and serve the Goddess. By becoming a member of the Congregation, you affirm the importance of a religious organization for women. Working together we can create a vehicle for the embodiment of the thoughts and ideals of Goddess women.

You are invited to add your name to the thousands of other women who have joined the Congregation and assist in creating religious community. By typing your name, you stand in solidarity with women through the ages who have observed and invoked Goddess. By typing your name, you join a group where Goddess women come together to explore and celebrate women's spiritual experience. By typing your name, you become part of a group that is working to bring Goddess consciousness back into the world.

Membership Form


After you join....

We are hoping you would like get more involved in the activities of the Congregation. Here are you some of the ways you can become more connected.
  • Come to an RCG-I Gathering. RCG-I sponsors two Gatherings a year. The Priestess Gathering, the in May and the Hallows Gathering, in October. You can find information about the Gatherings on the RCG-I website

  • Wear a triple crescent. Show others you belong to the Congregation by wearing a triple crescent. The triple crescent is the symbol of the Congregation. It represents the three phases of the Goddess; Maiden, Mother and Crone bonded together in a circle as a reminder that they/we are all one. Wearing the triple crescent is a good way to proclaim your association and it is one of the ways Congregation members recognize each other. Look in the Goddess Goods section of the RCG-I website for triple crescents.

  • Check the RCG-I website. Some things on the site change regularly. Lunar Link is a monthly ritual in which women of the Congregation can participate. New Book reviews appear often and you can order many of these books through the Congregation. Goddess Goods has continuing updates and specials.

  • Participate in the RCG-I elist. If you like lively discussion with women all over the world about women's issues, and the Congregation’s activities from a Goddess centered perspective you might enjoy being a part of the RCG-I e-list. Let us know about your interest by emailing rcgiorg@aol.com. Be sure to include your name, your e-mail address and if you have it your membership number.

  • Show your support by sending donations. The Congregations members make the activities and services of the Congregation possible. Your financial support whether on-going or one time can make a difference to the future of the Congregation and for women everywhere. Your donation is tax- deductible. You can make donations also from the RCG-I website.

The Goddess is alive and magic is afoot.
