Our ancestors knew that when grief touches our hearts, the veil between us
and Spirit thins, drawing us nearer to the sacred, the divine mystery and Soul.
Yet, in modern times, grief and loss, once intertwined with our spirituality, practices, and ancestral wisdom. have become split off from the rest of our lives.
We are taught to transcend, bypass or hurry through grief, rarely taking refuge in its depths or seeing it as an ally on our spiritual journey.
This disconnection has left us lost, scared of grief, feeling isolated and
unworthy when we are hurting...
Especially in the West, where our ancestral grief rituals and death practices have
pretty much faded into obscurity.
✵
Grief is love.
We do not grieve for what we do not love.
✵
Grief is a universal thread that connects us as humans - to each other,
the natural and unseen worlds.
Grief alchemizes our pain as the transmutational force of Eros.
✵
Grief flows in that dark space between loss and the emergence of new life—a space where our ancestors protected the mysteries of alchemy, regeneration and healing.
During times of loss, they tended to grief as if tending to a garden, nurturing seeds of new life, wisdom, and transformation while nourishing broken hearts in the darkness.
Just as there are maps for the cycle of life, when a seed is planted, or for the cycle of death, when someone dies…
There is also a map for the dark phase of grief.
✵
This map is not linear—it is nuanced, layered; guided by the wisdom of the soul.
When we embrace this, grief can become a place of refuge, a source of alchemical magic
and love that invites us to surrender to an organic process we can learn to
trust rather than try to control.
We can harness this dark phase for awakening, liberation and the nourishment of the creative cycles that lie ahead of us just as our ancestors did.
Grief tending is a skill we can cultivate.
It is the bridge between the spiritual and the psychological, between the seen and unseen.
✵
The Alchemy of Grief is a psycho-spiritual process of grief tending, that provides you with tools for contemplation and ritual.
A foundation of spiritual refuge and personal empowerment during times of transition.
This process is appropriate for many kinds of loss, including but not limited to:
~ Death of loved ones
~ Relationship ending
~ Individuation from family and/or unhealthy systems
~ Life changes and internal transitions
~ Processing old, unresolved grief from the past
~ Shame and Negative Beliefs
~ Ecological and collective grief
~ Ancestral grief
~ If you are someone who tends to process the grief of the collective/system you are in.
During this weekend ritual masterclass, you will:
~ Receive guides & teachings with which to craft your own personal grief-tending practice.
~ Feel empowered in your relationship with grief to support your overall well-being.
~ Reconnect with the wisdom of ancestral grief practices.
~ Repair the bridge between loss and the healing energy of your spiritual path.
