Celtic Herbs, Folklore and Healing Practices for Samhain

Come join me for this online one-day retreat. I’m so excited to present it.

Celtic Herbs, Folklore and Healing Practices
Saturday, October 31, 2020. 9 am to 3 pm. $65. Partial Scholarships available.

Through the lens of Celtic heritage, we’ll honor our Dead within an expression of an intimate conversation woven of community, the land, and the Sacred, and shepherded by the generosity and blessing of the herbs and trees. We’ll touch into Scottish, Irish, and Welsh folk customs, myth, and plantlore not to imitate or appropriate, but to awaken our hearts to celebrating our beloved Dead in spontaneous, deep-felt ways, and to them perhaps celebrating us. Our day will be interspersed with solo time outdoors and in reflection and simple ceremony.
