S3:E3 Ethereal Dream Weaver
Summer is almost over! I hope yours has been full of time in nature.
I spent a very HOT summer day chatting with my friend and apprentice, Ari. I originally met them in Atabey, a BIPOC Herbal Medicine Program, last year. I quickly knew that they were a gifted channel for Spirit, and I was excited to get to know them better. Over the span of this year, she and three other folks have become my Creative Cauldron Apprentices. It feels like an easy and dreamy extension of the magic and medicine that we were steeped in during the previous year. In this episode, Ari (they/she) shares how connecting with their Spiritual Practice took disconnecting from colonialism and patriarchy, the many ways they experience Spirit and live in an constant dreamy realm, and how important laughter and pleasure are to us and our Ancestors.
Ari is a queer, neurodivergent, filipinx, 1st gen Taurus rising from Ohlone lands in the so-called bay area of California. Currently scheming up a life that's balanced between freedom and safety, and deeply rooted in connection with earth. Most of their accomplishments of late have been internal and only people super close to them may have noticed the 12th house journey they've been on for the last 5 years. That looks like finding Filipinx spiritual mentors, rediscovering their closeness with earth, practicing and receiving bodywork, tickling around with plant medicine, listening to their friends and partners and well ancestors better. It also looks like resting and eating treats on the couch accompanied by their two cats and nesting partner. They dream of cocreating cozy spaces with friends to feel beautiful and safe and supported in our bodies as we say byeeeeee to capitalism.
