Underworld Journey
In the very first cycle of the lunar year – the Aries New Moon cycle back in April – my heart took a big hit. Something happened where I felt both deeply disappointed in myself, as well as judged and painfully unsupported. This Aries cycle, with all its forward movement and fire energy, plunged me […]
Four Seasons Journey: Gift 3
{Inspired by Women’s Health Week I wanted to share some of the gifts I’ve received from participating in the Four Seasons Journey – one of the best things I’ve ever done in terms of my health and power as a woman!} The first thing we do in the Four Seasons Journey is make a drum, ancient […]
Medicine Drum workshop
It was a privilege for Sarah and I to facilitate this day with women birthing their own medicine drum! Creating sacred, transformative instruments in a context of loving sisterhood.

Dissonant Art
What happens when we create something we don’t like? What can our pieces teach us about the aspects of ourselves that feel “not okay, not worthy, not beautiful”? And is there room to bring these parts of us into the open? Jacqui & I explore these questions through the lens of eco-printing in the context of sacred […]
November Eco-printing
Calling anyone wanting to dive into the sensory delight that is the Seasonal Women’s Eco-printing Circle on Sunday 29th November! We’ll create eco-printed oracle cards (like these!) as a collaborative effort, collectively listening to what the natural world and our creative process wish to teach us! We will engage eco-printing as a self-reflexive art form, […]
Eco-printed Oracles
Beautiful collaboratively-created oracle cards, from yesterday’s eco-printing workshop. We slowed down enough to hear this wisdom coming through the leaves and the process, and it’s rippling out to you!
