With Scooter Cascadia

As we turn towards the season of winter, let us uplift the Holy Hag in myth and matriarchy. What can reclaiming and re-sourcing the pre-patriarchal roots of Baba Yaga (Old Europe), Hekate (Pre-Hellenistic), and the Calleiach (Scotland), as well as lifting up the contemporary resurgence of the Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers, open us to our own wise ways? How can this time and season in the wheel of the year serve as a portal to crone insights and sacred mystery? Whatever our gender identities or ages, the wise crone within offers insight about how we might reclaim our powers and response-abilities as elders, grandparents, culture mothers, wisdom-sharers, pattern-weavers, legacy-makers, transgenerational oracles, and more. Join us for this thoughtful romp across the sociological, anthropological, and mythopoetic. The gifts of unspelling, creating, guardianship, retreating, rewilding, and circling in council can nurture and heal our crone within, in a time increasingly calling for Her sacred wisdom.
