MW Rx. 50 - You Are Not Alone

What this episode covers

This week, as the moon begins to return from behind its monthly shadow rest, we're feeling into our creaky, leaky, magical old bodies. Do you struggle to be in your body? To feel it all? Us too, but from within our individual experiences of pain and pleasure we can root into deeper empathy and weave stronger circles of care. So here we go. Risa brings the rain on the lake, the image of each drop sending out its circle to resonate and concatenate with all the others. She's calling up the reminder of all the beings who exist within us and threaded through us, and the prescription comes from our coven mate Reed: a song that calls out to each of us, remember: You're Not Alone. In the cradle of the circle All the ones that came before you Well, their strength is yours now You're not alone Inspired by the plum trees she planted years ago finally flowering for the first time, and in honour of our annual Reparations season, Amy comes with Sacred Flowers by the Blue Mountain Tribe and an invitation to think about flowers, their holiness, and their haunting. The video for the song Sacred Flowers is a collage of stories about missing and murdered Indigenous women, dedications to specific stolen sisters. And while you're listening to it, while you're making your donation of $10 or more to your local Indigenous support org, we invite you this Spring to think about flowers. As long as we are rooted, we can bloom. As long as we are rooted — rooted in community, rooted in ethics, rooted in a sense of right and wrong, rooted in a love for the flowers, the land, the universe — then we have the opportunity to bloom. With hope and care, first come the flowers, then come the fruits. Flowers need rain and sun. So, tend to yourself as if you were a flower and be amazed by the beauty of the world. And check out Blue Mountain Tribe and join our Reparations Fundraiser.
