Plant Allies for Courageous Change
The pandemic has brought us the energy of radical shifts and change. Nothing seems the same after living through a global pandemic. You may Dnd yourself being deeply grateful for being alive. Perhaps you survived COVID, and even if you didn’t catch COVID, you may have witnessed or experienced the many losses this pandemic has brought. With losses also come the opportunities for new life and rebirth. Rebirth energy during these times may be showing up as a deep sense of gratefulness for being alive.
You may be feeling that there’s not much time to waste or much to lose, and that you’re ready to welcome courageous changes in your life, community, and the planet as a whole. Our plant allies can support us through life and global changes by bringing clarity, releasing fear and stagnation, and promoting courage, grounding and movement into action. Join me for a moment of virtual ceremonial energy and plant wisdom that will ignite your inner Dre for courageous change and movement.
