Daughters of the Ground
Did you have a grandmother, or a mother, or even an auntie who showed you how to wrestle and tumble deliciously with the Divine in nature?
Was there anyone who reminded you that your instinctual gratitude and majesty, born of the diligence of your hands and voice, were what inspired the deeply sacred courting of your own individual creative soul?
. . . let us take a soul’s journey to actively call forth and recover some long buried and forgotten bones of intuition, of true cultural seeds, capacity, and instinct.
. . . let us sing and pray to the ancestral DNA that hold the ancient power to re-grow ourselves and our world with more vitality , beauty , and strength .
. . . let us be together in beautiful old ways and re-sprout the faces that we long to see, as we ride toward home on regal horses and magical carpets in the longed-for direction of the true grasslands of our majestic souls!
This experience begins with a 6-session deep dive into female initiation through immersion into myth, sacred handwork and the ancient learning tool of riddles. How we show up to the subtle voices within and without matters. How we walk and talk and move matters – to the ground, to our ancestors and to our own souls. Can we stir the cauldron of curiousity, can we flex the muscles of awe and wonder toward the possibility of the kind of growth that makes us truly and beautifully human? Whatever you think this class is might not actually be the direction we are going to travel, but if you feel the call, the pull toward the mystery that it is… please join me!

I have been participating in a women’s handwork group with Jahanara for several years, meeting monthly or bimonthly. When we gather, Jahanara not only teaches beautiful creative methods of handwork, music, instrument making, metal crafts, painting, and other amazing surprises, she also tells stories of folklore and indigenous ways and holds a sacred space in which to be creative. If you might be curious and decide to work with her, you will be enriched with a depth of understanding about what it means to be human and experience all things in your life with a deeper level of meaning.
