Anki created a haven for us to learn and share

Gathering one was a special experience. For me it started before the gathering itself, with a series of serendipity (of course) on the way. Once at the site, Anki was able to ‘hold’ the group with her medicine, she created a haven for us to learn and share. The rituals and practices provided a space to deepen connection with ourselves, each other and spirit. The land also ‘held' us and offered wisdom, insights and provided loving care for our collective wounds and their various expressions. The river was purifying and rejuvenating. Deep remembering has developed from the processes, which I have been able to continue since the gathering and apply in other relationships with people, spirit and mother. During the earth lodge, Hala and her firewomen lead us through transformations of the feminine and shared blessings from the ancient ones and ancestors, which I’ve been carrying since. Anki and Sara are very powerful women who see and foster the power in those around them, with a clear intention to rise together. Our small group of mighty women share intersecting and complementary medicines. They are inspiring, it is an honour to connect with and learn from each remarkable, courageous and sparkly soul. I’m eagerly awaiting our second gathering, and looking very forward to learning, working and rising together again soon.
