Mother's Blessingway
Co-create a unique and bespoke event to celebrate and honour the Mother.
Service Description
The first meeting is an initial meet up with the Mother to be and any other friends and family to discuss what is to be included in the blessing way. Often we talk about the families roots, connections, things they like, flowers, colours, symbols, important stories come up about the family's history and so on, it is a deeply personal ritual. This is all important in the weaving together of a coherent ceremony that is unique to the birthing person. I then go off and write a unique opening, blessing and closing that speaks to that particular birthing person. I also include ritual magics such as red thread meditation, spiral goddess clay crafting, hair brushing, belly painting, feet washing or bathing of the birthing person. Secondly I also gather together magical items to construct our blessing way altar. The mother to be can then purchase the entire altar or pick and choose from it so they have lots of memories and keepsakes from the event. The altar includes items like crystals, ornaments, tarot cards, a foundational throw, candles, shells, incense, dried plants, herbs, jewellery - it's all very unique and intuitive deeply dependant on the particular birthing persons ancestry and personality. The altar items are available to purchase separately to the ceremony costing. The ceremony includes, words, set up of altar, cleansing of space, cleansing of the participants, opening words, blessing, closing words, facilitation of two chosen rituals, e.g. one cleansing, one craft, inclusion of breathwork, mantra chanting and or yoga, dance movement if desired. Incense, tea lights and smudging materials included. I also bring one gift item, I healing drink and 1 food item. Then if the birthing person desires the other altar items can be purchased these are things like a blanket, ornaments, shells, dishes, beads, crystals, icons, carvings all carefully selected to resonate with the birthing person. It is important to me that we bring magic and ritual to the mothering experience so constructing these blessing way altars and passing them onto another has such power to it. Do get in touch to start co-creating and weaving together your perfect ceremony.
