(Trigger Warning - S5 Ep #182)

Today we are stepping into a topic that I think (at some point) every single one of us wonders about. We’re talking about death and sitting in the mystery a little bit.  We are going to walk through some of the ways people have understood death and what comes after it. Not to decide which one is right but just talk about the options and notice what resonates. Because as witches, we don’t always need a single answer.  Right? We work with energy and cycles and transformation and death is a part of that.

Death is a sensitive topic for most people. It’s heavy and it usually brings up some kind of feeling. Whether that’s grief, memory, fear, curiosity… or just that painful ache that sits in the background when we think about the people and animals and things we’ve lost.  So please know I really appreciate you tuning into this episode and choosing to share this space with me today to talk about it. I promise I am going to be very mindful today.

I do have a trigger warning on this episode. I think most of my episodes are family friendly (kinda ... or for the most part).  I don’t edit specifically for kids or children to listen to, but I think generally most all of my episodes can be heard by a pretty wide age range.  And I am assuming if you do share any of these episodes with younger ages, you are listening first to see if it’s appropriate.  Please do the same thing today.  The trigger is not just for kids ... but for everyone. There is a personal sensitive section to this episode with a story of something I experienced. I have decided not to talk about it in depth today, just the overview. But, I will have a post on Patreon over at the person platform of Hearth & Hen with more information about the experience I went through IF (big if) it is something you want to read. So please, accept this as a trigger warning … for you and for any ears listening.

What happens when we die?  Across cultures, for many, many generations… people have held very different ideas about what happens after our bodies die. Some of those beliefs are rooted in religion, some in tradition, some in personal experience and some in that deep human need to understand what we can’t fully see. Today we are going to open the door to some of those perspectives. We are going to talk about the veil (that space between worlds) and what could come next. We are going to sit with the mystery a little bit!

We've got this!
