celebrations of Release & growth
Circling up with the intention of empowering each other to GROW is a magical thing. I’m honored to facilitate these circles with bundles of Mama Nature’s goodness.
I love sharing the stories I’ve been hearing from Mama with small groups around a fire.
WHAT YOU BRING: Bring your mask and own campfire comforts: a chair, what you’d like to eat/drink, and what will keep you warm. Also bring something to write with and something to write on - like a journal or clipboard.
WHAT WE’LL DO: I’ve created a wreath for the group, and an individual bundle of flowers and set of Intention Cards for each of us to work with during our gathering.
We’ll tune in to the super powers Nature possesses, and set intentions to turn up those powers within ourselves and in turn, the Collective.
The base of our wreath started with things that needed cleared from my garden a couple of weeks back.
The Mint was taking over the raspberry patch. The Narcissus leaves had dried to a crisp. The Honeysuckle was overtaken and stunted by aphids.
The Fig leaf had fallen from it’s plant in my office, after weeks of Pandemic neglect.
This gnarly and twisted foundation serves as a symbol of our current situation. A decaying infrastructure, in need of repair. Or maybe replacement.
The circle began to evolve as I added some FIRE. Nandina leaves were followed by Teasel and Black Eyed Susan to aid in the deep healing and release needed for new beginnings. I added some Lavender to calm the blaze a bit, but kept the fire hot.
Deep red Roses came next to seal in some love and friendship, and Hydrangea adds strength with boundaries and deconstructs karmic patterns.
Last came some freshly dried honeysuckle - in all it’s glory. No pests. No trauma. No stunted growth.
When we release this wreath back to the earth with fire, we’ll watch together as the blossoms dance and the stems twist in the flames. We’ll amplify our personal intentions by setting them ablaze together.
It’s burning. And it’s meant to be. It’s time for something new.
