We must learn from those who came before us, and share our stories with those who come after.

First Moon Ceremony

12/1/2021

 
"I'm so grateful for the support you've given my daughter and the ways you've modeled for her ways of being.  Thank you for the way you walk in the world!" - Rites of Passage Mama

It was an honor to support a recent First Moon Ceremony for one of our blossoming teens. We gathered by the waters (of course!) to witness her journey. Three generations of women, and a diverse circle of female-identified humans circled round for a powerful welcome to this stunning teen into the world of womanhood.

What a privilege to be asked to hold space in this way. The teen herself asked for this! What a gift, to feel the village circle up to create a culturally responsive and relevant ceremony. From little sisters to wise crones, these are the moments that mark our lives. These are the forever memories that shape us, the ones we can feel right as they are happening... we are all changed by these moments.

With holy reverence to the female body and the ancient circles rippling around us all ~ We are blessed! May all young women have this opportunity. May all mothers be held in their ever transforming task of holding. May all female bodies be respected and kept safe.

May we all be guided towards supporting teens and their families in receiving the helping hands they need along the way.
