12 Holy Days with Rosemary - Community Portal

I woke with a shock at 6am feeling I'd just had a bad dream. It wouldnt show itself at first, it was buried deep."My tribe, something happened to my tribe!!" It was a feeling of, a tribe being attacked, land been taken and the tribe having to scatter and relocate separately from eachother 🥺 it was so clear in my body, a memory of fear and grief and not knowing where I come from but knowing something grieves for the memory of it. There was also a vibe that the new place the tribe people went to, all seperate, they werent allowed to practice the ancient ways, had to hide their connection to spirit and not let anyone know they were that way. otherwise people would know they are those type and they wouldnt be safe. therefore the wisdom was lost and connection to lineage, eventually forgotten.

The theme of my journey with her seems to be ancestral grief, indigenous memories, longing for the forest and living simply in nature. Community, connectedness. Togetherness. Tribe. Grief about the earth being taken from, when she is alive. Grief about nature not being revered. At the same time, it's not all gloom and grief!! I'm feeling such deep connection to nature whenever I drink her, I can't describe... its like I can feel the planet breathe, and all life pulse, and flow, like a web, of life, inside me and around me, no seperation. Like a network, alive and vast and full of different beings. Different frequencies of vibration, its alive and moving. It's leaving me in silent awe.

Along side this, little human jess is having lots of old memories of being a child. There was no warmth in my home. So im giving her the nurture she never recieved. Yesterday when I drank, warmth flooded into my heart space and I felt rosemary was supporting me with this love, nurture, saftey, holding that I'd prayed for while brewing. Wow what a journey ! 🌿✨️🏹🤍🐉
