Learn the meditative craft of stained glass construction. Stained glass is a physical reminder of the divine light that illuminates our lives, and can be a window into the spiritual realm. Glass forms in a continuous network of atoms which alludes to our entangled connection to all things. Stained glass allows us to experience color and light in an ethereal manner opening us to the sacred dimensions of our lives through visual art. It is my hope that you will find this a meditative act of intentional creation. This course will use the elements and compounds of glass, copper, heat, and intention to create a beautiful take home triple goddess, or triple crescent moon symbol, which represents the waxing, full, and waning moons, and is associated...

What becomes available when physically exploring the metaphors of adornment and transformation with our hands? This is an opportunity to reflect, connect, share as our hands find the rhythm while making a necklace to adorn ourselves or give as a gift.. We will use worn fabrics to learn this ancient technique and create beauty from that which would otherwise be discarded. Folks will come...

I created an Ancestor Essence at my Dad's grave once with a bowl of spring water, roses and infused it with song. We'll be gathering in a circle and practice embodiment, sing a bit and then each create a 2oz tincture bottle infused with the memory & love of a chosen ancestor.We'll share stories of the ancestor and sing their memory into the water. I'll bring some flowers/herbs that we can add as well. Then we'll all fill up our bottles. This essence/potion can be carried with them at all times, a small way to ritualize 'closeness' with the one they are longing for. The essence is also an energetic medicine for grief; filling their hearts with the memory of storytelling and singing the ancestor's praises...
