The Archetypes Session 6
Crafting Ritual
In this session we offer an introduction to the craft of creating rituals to work with these thirteen archetypes. We offer a framework for working with the four elements - water, earth, air and fire - to design solo and group ritual.
We will dive much deeper into this topic in the in-person ritual immersion program Dancing the Wheel which is the second part of the Seasons of Womanhood program.
Reflection Questions
Which Archetype is calling for ritual attention? If more than one, which one is most alive?
What is the intention of the ritual?
Which element best serves this intention?
Design a ritual around this element and intention
Our Deepest Fear
Our Deepest Fear
by Marianne Williamson
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
