When I was a little girl, I would spend hours creating magical worlds in the forest that was our backyard, in the rural interior of so-called British Columbia (Sinixt First Nations territory). I built fairey homes, earth art, and nature altars. At the time I had no framework for the importance of ritual. Rather, it was like an innate force inside me was constantly seeking – and then finding – opportunities to play in liminal ritual time.
I’m so grateful that this young one in me had that spark…and that the adult in me kept this ember of ceremonial love alive. Now ritual, art and connection to a kind of sacred magic….well, it’s essential.
Reclaiming the Heart of Ritual
So many of us have a deep need to reclaim ritual, to reconnect with this creative way of feeling nurtured. For me ritual is an anchor, a space holder, a container for all that comes in life. Ritual can be like a soft place to land, a reliable friend.
Ritual can also take a more ceremonial form, with those larger thresholds in life.
Threshold n. The Point where a new era of experience begins. ~Encarta World English Dictionary
When we curate authentic ritual, we experience a powerful unfolding of our true selves. Ritual brings living, breathing cohesion to life – everything from the simple ways we go about every day life, to the big transitions we are in the midst of.
