The course journey beings with the auspicious New Moon on October 14th 2023 - aligned with the energies of the Fall Equinox + Ancestral connections as we deepen into the the Western direction on the Medicine Wheel. An aligned time to begin this journey with these particular Plant allies.
Space is limited as the Medicines are hand crafted & many are grown by me🌱
Exploratory Herbal Mentorship is an online offering that works with traditional ways of learning about Herbal Medicine - through working with the Plants directly. Connecting with the Plants, forming relationship, and learning through shared wisdom & knowledge. Learning through experience & deepening your relationship with self as well.
During the 3.5 months of working together, you will work with 5 different plant medicines (and 1 BONUS Plant Medicine for integration), each in a unique form - tincture, flower essence, oil, tea, etc. You will spend a half moon cycle, or two weeks, with each Medicine. Cultivating a deeper relationship and understanding of the Plant's Spirit and Physical Medicine properties.
This offering is self paced, though we flow together with each half Moon phase. It is adaptable to your rhythms & routines.
During each half Moon phase, you will be guided to work with the Medicines through ritual, shared recipes, plant spirit messages, as well as an in depth Monograph* (typically 14-20 pages, PDF and downloadable).
You will also be invited to join an *optional* virtual Medicine Circle where we will gather to share what Medicine we are receiving from each plant - this may be through dreams, through direct knowing, through physical changes, shifts in perspective, mood, or any number ways of understanding the Plants on a deeper level.
When we share our stories, and how the herbs affect us, we begin gather a broader and deeper picture of the totality of the Plant friend. Similarly when we learn this way through teachings we gather a wider perspective. Understanding the Plants in this way changes how we work with Plant Medicine. We learn which people might benefit from which plants, we learn their energetic & esoteric properties, and we can match them accordingly. When we can discern which plants to use during which situations & with what type of person, we become better practitioners & healers. This includes working with them for personal healing, and relationship as well. It also helps us to learn from one another, truly in Circle vs. learning from one perspective or Teacher (the Plants themselves being our main Teachers in this offering :)).
As we all work with these Plants at the same time, we heighten our ability to understand their Nature as well as weaving shared connection with each other - it isn't uncommon for similar threads of experience to start popping up amongst the Circle as we access each Plant's wisdom. Often we may share similar dreams & synchronicities as this container is held and amplified by each one of us being present to the Plant's Spirit.
We will be journeying with 6 NEW Medicines, different from last Fall. They include: Vervain, Yarrow, Mugwort, Motherwort, Hawthorn & our BONUS herb Burdock
