Blessing Ways:
Ceremonial circles honoring major life transitions and rites of passages
Marriage | Birth | Death | Divorce | Puberty | Birthdays
Blessing Ways are special ceremonial circles that celebrate, honor, support and help a woman make the transition from one part of her life to another... a birth, a marriage, a big birthday, a divorce, a death, anything that signifies a rites of passage. Blessing Ways, as with all circles are incredibly empowering for a woman.
Too often we move through huge events or periods of life without some kind of honoring in a deeper way of what is transpiring and how it impacts us. Many rituals of past times have been lost which are so vital to assisting people with these passages.
Blessing Ways are based on a traditional Navajo puberty rites ceremony that has been adapted by many different peoples for many occasions. Each Blessing Way Circle is tailored to the individual and their unique circumstances.
Imagine a special gathering of your closest friends, coming together to acknowledge a major transition in your life by honoring and celebrating you in a sacred way, sharing their stories and wisdom, and supporting and validating your experience to help you move and grow through the transition in a positive way.
Blessing Ways are intimate, poignant, fun, funny and incredibly healing.
These circles fulfill our most basic needs:
- Connection to self and others
- Support from loved ones
- Acknowledgment and validation
- Emotional intimacy
- Witnessing
If you or someone you know is undergoing a major life transition, consider a Blessing Way.
