Seven Sisters: a project of global solidarity for expanding the vibe and tribe of sisterhood and empowering collective action 

 

The Seven Sisters project is inspired by the celebration of Shakti Bandhan initiated by ALL to connect women worldwide in a spirit of sisters beyond borders. 

 

The Seven Sisters project further aims to empower the spirit and strength of our togetherness - by leading as a group of seven and acting in togetherness, we energise our endeavours with the power of the collective. 

 

With a spiritual sanctity as well, the number seven is seen across cultures as one that elevates and ennobles our consciousness: seven chakras, seven musical notes, seven colors of the rainbow…

 

In a way, 7 becomes the new 1 wherein we are supported by the collective strength and guided by the greater wisdom of our harmonious oneness. 

  

Every year the Seven Sisters nominate the next Seven for the next year.
