A Ritual is a way of bringing awareness to a special moment in your life and giving this event some extra attention. The ritual shows in the physical world and in a symbolic way what is happening in the spiritual world. So you can honour and celebrate this important moment, help it manifest or empower it. A ritual can be as simple or complicated as you wish. By creating ceremony you open yourself for your intentions and connect with them on a deep level.
Contact me when you are interested in a ritual for your special event and we can talk about your wishes and the possibilities to make them real.
Beautiful moments for ritual are special moments in your personal life and natures festivals (sun and moon celebrations) For natures celebrations we have a special page. On this page we will focus on the celebration and rituals for our personal life events. Here are just some examples. Contact me to talk about the possibilities for the ceremonial celebration or support of an important moment in your life
Handfasting
When two people decide to be connected in love they can choose to do a Handfasting. In the early days a Handfasting was the legal way of getting married. In the Celtic tradition on a Handfasting you can decide to get married for a year and a day, your whole life, in eternity or as long as love flows. A Handfasting is custom made for each couple, so always different and always personal.
Bridal shower ~ Bachelorette Party ~ Sister Circle
In all cultures the Bride to be will spend some special time before her marriage with woman that are important to her. Woman that will shower her with love, yummy food, massage, sweet words and gifts. Secrets about how to have a good marriage and a sweet love-life will be shared. There will be laughter, dance, singing. By doing this in ceremony you will make this special event extra special and sacred. A day to never forget!
First Moontime
The first moontime (menstuation) is a very special moment in a woman’s life. From now on she caries the mystery of life, from now on she may be initiated in the mysteries of womanhood, from now on she may enter the moonlodge. We can honour this sacred moment with a special celebration
Bellyblessing
When you are pregnant, or wish to be, it is very special to share this magical moment with your sisters (including your mum, she is a sister too ;)..) By a Bellyblessing you give your best wishes to this precious new life and the mother to be.
Baby Blessing
When a baby is born, most of the time it stays first in the warm and save arms of the close family. A Babyblessing is a beautiful way to celebrate this small world now may grow and to introduce the newborn child to his/her tribe of family and friends. It is a kind of alternative baptism ceremony and the moment for the tribe to give their best wishes to the little one. During this ritual we welcome the little child and give it our most loving wishes on the exciting journey ahead; Live!
New Beginning
A New Phase deserves to be celebrated! By giving this moment your full attention, you consciously step through the gate of what is gone to what will be. You leave behind what may be left behind and you open yourself for all new possibilities.
Farewell
Many people tent to celebrate a new beginning but forget the farewell. A new begin is full of joy, but a goodbye can be difficult and painful. Still it is just as important to also experience this moment in full awareness. When you don’t give the farewell the attention it needs it can’t be healed and it can keep dragging behind you. When you allow the farewell to be and you give it your full attention you close the circle. And in a circle every end is a new beginning ;) Farewell comes in many shapes and forms. We say goodbye to people, relationships, life stages, places etc. Every farewell is worth to be honoured and celebrated. It is the sacred process of life. This ritual is also completely custom made and personal.
A new Home
When you move houses and your going to make a new place ‘home’, it feels good to celebrate this with a housewarming. By welcoming all your loved ones you warm your new home. Physically, but also spiritually with their love. You can make this event even more special by doing a ceremony. A ceremony in which we bless your home and make it a sacred place.
Cleansing
Physical cleaning we do every day. Showering, hovering, washing, tidying, polishing etc. Energetic cleansing is just as important, because energy also can get dusty, dirty, accumulate and be in need for cleaning. Cleansing can be needed in many different ways. Think about yourself, your home, your stuff, your relationship etc. Depending on what needs cleaning we will find way. Likely we will use: Water: to rinse what may flow away Air: The Native Americans use smoke to energetically cleanse. They call this smudging. Fire: To burn and transform what we let go earth: Earth has the ability to transform our waste into fertile ground for growth, physically and energetically.
