Integrating with Seasonal Shifts

Oct 08, 2025

 

That state of the world feels hot, loud, and fast right now. 

Seasons shift unpredictably.
Machines roar at every turn.
Urgency chases us endlessly.

What if this is the season people sighed with relief?
All together now inhale . . . and sigh it outloud . . . ahhhhh….

This could be the season to rest and dream and move slower.
A season of spacious calendar schedules in order to recalibrate to darkness and cold living. 
A deep sigh of rest. 


The season of slower pace is for dreaming, creating, divining, and stitching stories in silence. 
We get to tuck away the gardens and outdoor activities to focus within. 

In the darkness there is a potent remembering, rewilding and reclaiming to surrender to. 

What if we gathered ourselves together to support each other through seasonal shifts?

An invitation

I’m collaborating with Emily of Wise Women Witchery as we guide you through The Descent —
a sanctuary of ceremony and embodiment, created to guide you gently into the fertile dark through four live ceremonies.

Together, we’ll greet the darkness with grounded clarity, deep rest, and ancestral support.


🕯️ Ceremonies:
 November 1, 8, 15, 22
 9:00 AM Pacific | 11:00 AM Central

💫 Sliding Scale: $77 • $127 • $177

Registration is here ⬅️ 

The Descent Ceremonies

Each gathering guides you deeper into the heart of the dark season — a journey of remembrance, rest, and renewal.


🌑 Threshold of Descent - Opening the doorway, crossing into the season of night.
🌙 Meeting the Shadow and the Darkness with Courage -  Walking into the unknown with grounding, clarity, and support.
🌕 Ancestral Threads that Run Through Us - Remembering ancestral presence, wisdom, and guidance in the unseen. The vein of story that runs through the land and our bodies.
🌘 Finding Your Medicine in the Dark -  Resting in the womb of stillness to discover the potency of this place inside yourself.

Participants will also receive: 
A printable Ritual Oracle Deck - a set of 41 printable cards
These cards can be printed, cut, and used daily to weave small acts of ritual and intention into your Descent.

SPECIAL GIFT
Register before October 19 to receive an exclusive invitation to a live "Dark Moon Ancestor Ceremony" on October 19th.

A cozy sweater, herbal jars, and a Winter Circle we can gather in together
I’m writing this wrapped in an oversized white-and-black thrifted wool-like sweater, listening to a  YouTube playlist titled “Ethereal Yule ~ Medieval Celtic Music”.   My cat is sitting right in front of me, taunting our new dog to interact (dare I say ‘play’?). I feel so cozy in this moment while drinking a chia tea latte.  This morning, the sun shone long enough for me to take a photo of my...
Meeting the Redwoods & The Descent
I finally met the redwood trees! I know. . .  many people are astonished that Erin, the Plant Priestess and Green Witch lady hasn’t met them yet. How could someone who is devoted to plants have missed a meeting with these gigantic Beings?!  Living in Wisconsin and taking a trip to California takes some planning. And, so, I finally did it. I met them at The Grove of Old Trees in Sonoma County, C...
