A call for Grief Tending

In my previous posts I wrote about a journey work I did pertaining to the Goddess Nephthys. I walked a volcanic setting with ashes and smoke rising. I saw stuck fragments or soul parts. The energies needed to be seen, lifted and sent up and out. Those dark dense energies needed movement. Hawk/Kite, scorpion and snake are my allies in this.

This morning I felt the loss of the massive fire still burning just a few towns over. I got the native seeds from Great Basin seed company in the mail a few days ago. Large packets of seeds. I sat in meditation this morning and that image popped into my mind. The mountain of fire and smoke and ash. The seeds. Grief tending. The calling to show up with bravery to facilitate a space for mourners.

I am mourning the insects, spiders, butterflies, the birds nests, the plants, the animals, the places and spaces for our communities that connected us to Mother Earth and one another.

I am reaching out now to friends in my community to help guide, facilitate and participate. I know I was asked to show up in this way.

I will show up with my courageous loving heart. I have my drum and my voice.
