Upcoming:

Plant Ally Week: Mugwort

Date: Oct 26- Nov 2, 2020 (Two Zoom meetings, the evenings of Oct 26th and Nov 2nd)

Cost: $40 – $100 sliding scale, plus materials (~$20-30)

Learn more about this mystical plant that has been used for protection, purification, inspiration, dream work and divination during the time of year where the veil between the worlds is thinnest.

Plants offer deep medicine physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually and learning about just one will give you a new tool to lean on in difficult times. Connecting with the plant world is a magical experience. In developing a relationship with a plant, your own intuitive abilities will deepen. You will learn a different way of being in relationship with the world around you, which extends to other relationships in your life.

On the evening of Monday, Oct 26, our small group will meet via Zoom to introduce our herbal ally, talk about the week ahead and ask any questions you may have. You will then spend the week getting to know Mugwort through ingesting the oxymel, meditation and dream work. I will be available for questions all week. At the end of the week we will circle up via Zoom to share what we each received from the experience. I will teach you about Mugwort medicine and lore and how you can incorporate it into your everyday life. You will also receive a document highlighting Mugwort’s medicinal qualities after the final lesson.
