Mama Ocllo rose from Pachamama and carries the wisdom of how to live on the Earth. She teaches us how to root, how to tend, and how to belong. The red of the soil and the red of our blood are one. Our body is not separate from the Earth. It is where life begins.
When we return to the root, the nervous system softens and the mind becomes quiet. We feel grounded and connected to the heartbeat of the Mother Earth and our own. We begin to trust our body and our medicine path.
From this place, we begin to build our Nusta Mesa, a living relationship with the sacred feminine and the Earth. We create stability, clear direction, and a life that can hold our gifts. Our energy becomes grounded, our path becomes steady, and our medicine has somewhere to land.

Answer the call of the soul… see you Saturday!

I have been building this work for decades through devotion, ceremony, and walking in relationship with the Goddess lineages. This is something I live every day, not something I only teach.

The Peruvian Goddesses (Nusta) are HERE! We are opening a seven-part ceremonial path from the Andean traditions. Each gathering is a sacred space, a rite, and an attunement. You are welcomed into circle to receive and begin building your own relationship with the Nusta’s.

The Nusta’s are not widely offered, and it is rare to be able to sit in this kind of ceremony here in the Pacific Northwest. It calls in those who have been looking for deep spiritual community, a sacred space to gather, to receive, and to be in sacred ceremony together. This series is ongoing monthly and repeats annually, so if your called to the whole series, join us this weekend.

We begin this Saturday with Mama Oqllo, the Mother, opening the path. For those who join, workbooks, online support, and integration are included so you can carry what you receive forward after each ceremony.

Saturday, March 28th – 1pm

This is your invitation to join us in sacred circle this weekend.

Seven Peruvian Goddesses

I want to follow up and personally invite you in. There are only a few spaces left for the Ñusta Initiations, and I would love to have you with us if this work is calling you.

The Ñusta Rites are practices that connect us with the feminine forces of the Andes, known as the Ñustas, the Goddesses and guardians of the sacred lakes and mountains of Peru. These rites come from a living lineage and are received through direct experience, ceremony, and energetic transmission. We are in a time of Pachakuti, a reordering where old structures are breaking down and new ways of being are emerging. This is a time to step into these teachings with intention and presence.

We begin with Mama Oqllo, the Earth Mother. Her medicine is grounded and direct. She teaches stability, nourishment, and how to be in right relationship with the physical world. This first initiation supports you in coming back into your body, creating a sense of safety, and building a strong foundation for the work that follows.

In this series, you will receive the first of seven Ñusta initiations and begin building your personal Ñusta Mesa. This becomes a sacred bundle that holds your relationship with each Goddess and supports your own healing and practice over time.

Upon registration, you will receive two preparation workbooks. One introduces the Ñusta Rites and the lineage of this work. The second is devoted to Mama Oqllo and will guide you in preparing for your first initiation.

We will work in the same ceremonial way this lineage has been shared, with permission to pass this work forward in right relationship.

If you feel the pull, please join us!
This series welcomes people of ALL GENDERS and all levels of experience. Whether you are new to Andean traditions or already walking a spiritual path, you are invited to sit in sacred community and receive these beautiful rites.

Date: Saturday March 28th, 2026
Time: 1:00-4:00pm
Location: Soul Ascension Studio, 300 East 13th Street, #103 Vancouver, WA

As a death doula, I'm interested in this topic deeply. We as humans have too many burdens that get passed on. 💔

As a death doula, I'm interested in this topic deeply. We as humans have too many burdens that get passed on. 💔

Where others saw mere clutter, Margareta Magnusson spotted a moral issue: Who is responsible for what she called “the mountain of crap” most of us accumulate over a lifetime?

Her answer was definite: We should sort out and sell or give away almost all of our trinkets, T-shirts, books and baubles before we die—rather than leaving a dreary chore for friends or families.

Magnusson, a seascape painter and mother of five, was in her mid-80s when she wrote a bestselling book, “The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.” It introduced a concept—cleaning up your own mess before you die—that resonated around the world.

Magnusson practiced what she preached. There was little left to tidy up after she died at the age of 91 on March 12 in Gothenburg, Sweden, where she was living in a retirement home. “The only thing I have to do now is talk to journalists,” said her youngest daughter, Jane Magnusson, a documentary filmmaker, who several years ago made a short film about her mother.

Today is known as St. Patrick’s Day… but the land is holding something much older.

A seasonal turning. A soft awakening.
Water beginning to move, life returning beneath the surface.

In the Celtic lands, this time has long been connected to the living presence of the Earth Mother… known through Goddesses Danu and Brigid.

Not as stories, but as felt relationship. With our land. With our body. With our quiet intelligence of nature.

Different places, different names yet the same current moves through all things.

MamaGaia is still here, and when we slow down enough… we can feel her again. 🍃

The Mother Appears in Many Forms
Across cultures and traditions, the same sacred presence continues to emerge... the Great Mother.

She is known by many names.

Pachamama – Andes
Ancient Mother of the mountains, soil, and all living things.

Danu – Celtic Lands
Primordial river of life, birthing the magic of the world.

World Mother – Universal Archetype
The eternal feminine who holds the Earth and all beings within her care.

Mama Ocllo – Incan Traditions
Sacred Mother who brought wisdom, culture, and the seeds of civilization.

Different names and stories, yet the same living current of nourishment, creation, protection, and life itself.

In the Andean traditions of Energetic Medicine, these goddesses are known as the Nustas. Sacred feminine archetypes that help us reconnect with vitality, emotional balance, intuition, and our deeper spiritual nature.

Over this year I will be teaching all seven Nustas. Through ceremony, teachings, and energetic practices, participants will begin building their own Nusta Mesa — a personal ceremonial healing bundle that deepens their relationship with each archetype.

With each ceremony there is a transmission, attunement, and direct transfer of Nusta medicine into both the participant and their personal mesa. These mesas are created as sacred medicine bundles for your own spiritual practice and relationship with the Nustas.

The Mother is always speaking — through the land, through dreams, and through the ancient wisdom that lives in our bones.

If something in your heart stirs when you hear the call of the goddesses, this may be your invitation to step onto the path.

The first Nusta — Mother Goddess Mama Ocllo — begins March 28, 2026.
