Of Earth & Stars

Áay, Aanii, Hello! Of Earth & Stars is a journal for Earth-keepers & Star-beings, for all folks who wish to remember our Ancestors ways. The intention is to awaken our inherent connection to all of Creation - Rooting us here to the Earth, and expanding our Spirit as we connect with the Stars.

Topics will range, but the common themes are: Healing, Connection to Land, Plant Medicine (herbalism), Earth protection, Gardening (Land Tending), Ancestral Medicine, Decolonization work, Medicine Stories, Naturopathic Medicine, Postpartum & Menstrual health ... all woven together with Love as the guiding energy 

 I'm honoured to share these words with you here ♥

Plant kin for Transformations, and navigating our way through liminal spaces, uncertainty + change

Cosmic shifts :: Plant Medicines for grounding, transitions & finding our way in the in between ♥

We are in a time of much uncertainty. A time of birthing new ways, rooted in Tradition, in Harmony, in Earth based kinship ~ while simultaneously creating space for all that no longer serves to be dismantled, burned, released.

As we navigate these times all that is not meant to stay, not aligned, will fall away. Let it, Kin. That doesn’t mean it is easy. Endings & even new beginnings we have longed for can be painful. We may be asked to rest, to trust, to create space, to integrate. To be comfortable with uncertainty & our lack of “control.” When we let Spirit, Ancestors, Creation guide, we are asked to listen + follow that guidance. Even if we don’t quite understand what it means.

Tending to our Spring Waters & Lymphatic System for overall Vitality + Discernment

The Water calling us to remember how to flow, to be flexible yet powerful

The theme of tending to our Waters keeps arising ~ flowing. Moving stuck, stagnant energy from a long Winter. Making space for all we are creating & calling in, shaking off the heaviness as we slowly emerge. How are you noticing those subtle shifts? Have you been called to more baths? To the Water? What is the closest body of Water to you (besides your own)? Is it frozen? Flowing?Our lymphatic & detoxification systems are a vital aspect of our overall health & Immune system, but often not talked about too much. Our Lymph is a protector, warrior system. It is vital to our immune health & Water balance…

Plant Medicines for Earth Protectors, Land Stewards & Sacred Activism Part 3: Rest Medicines

Hearing the Call of Mama Earth ♥

Many of us are hearing the call of Mama Earth, the Water, the Plants, the Animals, all of the beings here. The call is a beacon home. Home to the Earth, to our Bodies, and to our Ancestor’s ways. Decolonizing all aspects of our life, to return to Harmony with Nature & one another. To honor our Ancestral Roots. This call may look different for each of us, the one common theme is awakening the Protector in each of us - that part of us that is intimately connected with the Earth, with all that is, and who will fight to Protect what is Sacred.

Plant Medicines for Earth Protectors, Land Stewards & Sacred Activism Pt. 2

With this past New Moon in Virgo, I’m feeling a collective sigh, a collective shift. Virgo is sometimes called the Great Cosmic Mother, they are that Earthly energy - Pachamama, Gaia, Mama Earth. This New Moon is bringing a feeling of relief & moving through the heaviness of the last cycle. Asking us to connect with Mama Earth energy, feel into our bodies, touch the soil with our skin…
