Painting with Plant Spirits

March 2025 - February 2026

Join me as we deepen our relationship with the native herbs and plant healers in a very special opportunity to connect with them on a multitude of levels ~

We will journey, paint and receive a wealth of whole plant healing from these precious teachers

Learn about native herbs and work with them in the holistic realms of whole plant healing. Meeting the plants as whole beings in the relational field. These wise healers and master teachers create healing of our inner ecology so that it may ripple out into the outer landscape. They are calling to support us and enhance our wild medicine cabinets as we work to reweave the threads of our human ecosystems.

What is your unique Sacred Heartistry?

How can we focus & fuel that which wishes to ignite as a powerful source of heart work in the world?

In our convenings we will sit with this enquiry and support ourselves to establish how best we can serve our communities with this work that comes from our souls longing

Meeting within each astrological season provides a compass for self process. The seasonal gateways supporting our creative processes with their sacred offerings

The online portion of the offering will serve to support the journey keeping - maintaining our connection and providing integration of the in person circles. This slow and rhythmical container sustaining out hearth fire, creativity, connection and healing

We are Soul Gardeners. As soul gardeners we tread a path of honouring each season. We honour the spark of life, the root; the bud; the blossom; the bloom; the fruit; its ripening; the release, the rot and the rebirth

For the in person circles we will be gathering in a medicine garden which is gardened by the moon on sacred earth lines surrounded by deer kin and springs. I feel that it is really important that we convene in a space where we can sit and relate to the growing plants that we work with

DAUGHTERS OF LILITH

Hosted by Katie-Rose Whiting and Laura Hart Swann

22nd July 2025

10am-1pm

Mary Magdalene’s Feast Day

A sacred online gathering for an intimate coven of women called to the threshold where old stories shed their skin, and ancient power rises.

Together, we will descend into the forgotten chambers of the Wounded Maiden, reclaiming her not as fragile, but as fiercely feeling. We will walk the untamed path of Lilith, mapping her presence in our charts, our bones, our choices. Through ritual, shadow-work, and the wisdom of earth-based witchcraft, we will alchemise grief, rage, and longing into embodied power.

This is a remembrance.

A reclamation.

A return.

Come to reweave your story.

Come to reclaim your voice, your rhythm, your fire.

Come to stand among sisters as seer, as witch, as Woman wholly your own.

£45

Once you have secured your place a Zoom link will be sent out closer to the time
