AN ALTAR HONOURING THE THRESHOLD INTO MOTHERHOOD
As I stand upon the threshold of the biggest initiation of my life so far—giving birth and becoming a mother—I look at the photos I took of my Birth Altar before leaving for Oslo with tears in my eyes.
An Altar which fills me with strength, calm and wonder. It carries with it the forces and magic of the unseen🌀
~ the blessing & protection of the Land which is so dear to me
~ my loved ones and ancestors who have passed
~ the circle of dear sisters, friends and family holding me through this portal
~ the primordial spirit of the Mother
~ the souls essence of the little boy I carry
~ the essence of me — my primal force|my urkraft and all the the layers of my becoming
AN HONOURING & CELEBRATION OF BECOMING, OF LIFE, GROWTH AND BEAUTY
Knowing that this Altar is holding me from afar, in the cocoon of our home brings me such comfort and joy. And reminds me of the great importance of creating sacred spaces of intention, ritual & ceremony to honour and hold life’s precious thresholds and moments — big and small🐚🔮
