[art: The Woman Who Dived Until Finding the End of the World, Welder Wing]
November 11th & 12th on Zoom
Souls make appointments with ours. But just because they reach out and connect to us does not mean they expect us to help them incarnate. As a Sacred Choice, what does it mean to say “no” to a body but “yes” to a soul?
This weekend we will have a very different kind of conversation about abortion—one that honors the choices we have made, the sorrows we have felt, and the mysteries we can now claim from the land of the dead.
We will look at various abortion rituals from around the world and throughout history as we create our own meaningful healing ceremonies together. There will be ample time for storytelling, for claiming our own intuitions about what we have experienced, and for finding new ways to free ourselves from shame and guilt.
Let us together tell new stories about one of women’s oldest and most important decisions. Let us together claim our right to be Mothers and Midwives of the Ancestral Realms. What if our abortion experiences are not mistakes, accidents, or failures—but radical initiations from the land of the dead to the mysteries of our own souls.
