Dear women,
I am not sure what to think yet about Mamalutions as I think we are so busy in the mamalutions that there is little time to communicate. For me, we raised up the five temples on the land on Aug 7 - 10th and it was really incredible. Our women's council was profound for me this year as women spoke of many issues from race, to sustainability, to unity, to our children, to having the courage to see what we will carry on and conserve.
We had one temple that is raised for women's diversity and healing and we used it as an ongoing council space throughout our gathering. Dale Allen gave an unbelievably inspiring performance at the firecircle with us as she unveiled her beautiful work of In Our Right Minds.
The women drummers, dancers, singers, storytellers delighted us through the night on Saturday. On Sunday the land rang out with our healing cries from breathwork as we collectively grieved, raged, and triumphed over our fears. Every eye glistened.
We are even more committed. I am thinking of actually having applications for Daughters of the Earth next year so that we draw into our gathering women who are truly committed to being women leaders and mentoring our youth. Ah, the youth. Some have been with us for four years now and to see them growing in this community of women is really astonishing. They are so wise and so incredibly grateful to be connected in this way with older women. It is just fantastic.
Then I went on a much needed rest to the mountains and lakes of the Adirondacks because I am a daughter of the earth.
