For 4 days and 3 nights
we were together
9 women
in the womb we call
the alter was set
the food prepared
the home ready to receive...
and us
It was almost a year to the day
when we began this journey
to birth our collaboration
and now the time had come...
and we were waiting with
open arms and open hearts.

| one of our many mantras for the weekend |

| hoody created by The Umber Dove |
You just know when you meet one of your tribe
when you recognize yourself in their eyes
when you can see their heart for the first time
and you already know it.
And that is what this gathering
was...
 | ||
| mother goose watched over us from across the river ...showing us what it meant to be patient...sitting in silence...listening and trusting that when the time was right, we too would crack open and rebirth ourselves into this world... |
This was a place to Re-member
and Re-turn
to who we are as women...
part of an active Sacred Sisterhood...
one in which we died together...
cried together...
came back to life together...
reclaiming our Selves
alongside our Sisterhood...
while we buried old pieces of ourselves
and stalked the shadows that long for our love.
It is hard to put into words
these kinds of experiences.
I am still marinating in all the goodness
I bore witness to...
allowing it to sink into my bones...
flow with my blood...
and become one with my cells.
This place...
these women...
reminded me of how it can be
with in a tribe of women...
how it is meant to be
an intimite sistehood
of holding one another
seeing one another
loving one another
right where you are
and supporting one another
to step into our highest potential
to walk along side
while we do the deep soul work
of healing
to hold each other hands
as we touch the tender parts of our hearts
and to bear witness
as we slay the demons
in our lives.

| a Celebration of Goddess' |
We honoured all that stood with us
and around us
as we took this journey
Sacred Mother
Sacred Father
Our guides, teachers and ancestors.
...this is what ReWilding ReBirth looks like...
One day
I hope you will join us
and we too
can be as One...
Love and Light
