Blessings & ceremonies
honoring life | honoring love | honoring the passages of time
As an Ordained Minister, it has been my honor to support people through every stage of the miracle that is life. Ceremonies have been conducted in-person and online and I love to facilitate the creation of beautiful offerings and ritual experiences in partnership with my clients and community, held by the Earth, witnessed by the sky and the stars.
In honor of all that is sacred, may you and all you hold dear be blessed by the wonders of existence.

BIRTH BLESSINGS
The importance of intentionally blessing a space and a place.
The birth of a child, a new venture, a new relationship.
As simple as a poem and as involved as a multi-step familial ritual experience. All blessings are created in reverent partnership with the Earth and any that support the new being, space, or venture.
MENARCHE CEREMONIES
In a society that lacks formal initiatory experiences, the transition from girl to woman can go unnoticed. This ceremony is created to honor the first bleeding and calls in sacred passages, practices, foods, and ritual.
It calls on the elder, and older women of the family to hold sacred space, and to celebrate the progression as a beautiful initiation as the girl crosses the sacred threshold into womanhood.
MARRIAGES & UNION CEREMONIES
A sacred time, an ancient ritual, the union of hearts.
I have officiated weddings for many loving couples and it is my honor to create a beautiful container where the witnessing of love and claiming of commitment can be affirmed with blessed intention.
Pre and post-marriage counsel is also offered to each couple.
ELDER INITIATIONS
Cronehood and the completion of the fertile phase of the physical body usher in a deeply expansive period of a woman’s life.
Elder initiates claim their power as guides and wisdom keepers whose creative fires exist to ground, nourish and expand the consciousness of our cultures and communities.
MEMORIAL SERVICES
The passing of a loved one is a tender and sacred time.
Services are created in accordance with the guidance of the family and the guidance of the deceased are tender, respectful, integrated, and carefully heart-centered.
Grief support is also offered in service of those that remain embodied.
CELESTIAL CEREMONY - TRACKING THE LUNAR CALENDAR
Each phase of the moon offers us a way to track ourselves more closely to the passage of the natural world. A calendar as ancient if not older than those that tracked the sun, the moons, and their seasons have been named and honored around the world. In the Avalonian tradition, there are 13 moons of the year each complimented by traditional herbs and meditations.
