Grief Magic: Rituals, Tarot & Creativity for Seasons of Loss

Hey everyone, I'm happy to send a conversation with the wonderful Ravel Rose your way - I really loved talking to her and being reminded how important it is to take my time and listen to my body. Enjoy! 

Here is some of the magic Raven and I talked about for this interview:  

Visionary and medicine woman Raven Rose, was called to her path while in search of natural remedies to overcome her debilitating menstrual pain. On that quest she became a menstrual health herbalist, Kambo practitioner, and revived many of her ancestral medicines. In her practice Moon Medicine, Raven helps others restore balance to their menstrual cycles, through embracing a cyclical lifestyle, traditional healing practices, and restoring ancestral wisdom.moonmedicine.co

Hey everyone, mmmhhh. This is a good one! I've known Meghan for a while and really love her work & approach and hope you will too. This interview ties so beautifully with where I am at at the moment - appreciating that inner and outer seasons can be different and letting myself be where I am. I shared about this a bit in the intro and I hope that if you feel the same you know you are not alone. Here is some of what Meghan and I talked about: 

Meghan Norean (she/her) is a womb witch and cyclical living guide weaving together cycle magic for regeneration of body + earth + community. She creates sacred space for womb-bodied beings to journey into remembrance + reclamation of their power through ritual, bodyfulness, meditation and archetypal energy work. Meghan works within a trauma-informed, healing-centered, somatic-based, anti-capitalistic framework in her online offerings. She can often be seen in the wild dancing, reading, performing spells and hand crafting womb-based embroidery. Meghan’s work is informed by the lands that run through her blood, birth and love. She has Celtic + Germanic ancestral lineage. She was birthed on Turtle Island, the traditional lands of the Susquehannock, now known as Pennsylvania. She has spent the last 10 years living + working in Kolkata, India, the land of the Bengali people, where she met and fell in love with her partner.

Hey everyone, I'm excited to send this conversation with Darcy Leigh your way! I love Darcy's zines and I hope that all the imaginary permissions slips we've handed out to ourselves in this episode will make you feel excited to DIY more things too. Here is what we talked about:  

Darcy Leigh co-runs @easterroadpress, an insurrectionary transfeminist press based in Scotland. She is into DIY everything, from her zines about butch bodies, to her DIY archiving and curation at butcharchive.com. Themes from her work include fatness, transness, tits, ambivalence, Jewishness and psychiatry. She lives half in Edinburgh, half in Brighton (it’s complicated), and appreciates pigeons, innovative zine folds and dark truths. When not in queer zine land, Darcy works in the ivory tower and is also committed to its destruction (aka, is a Lecturer in Law who researches the ongoing history of the British Empire).
