    In the West, teaches us to open the gateway to the void—the vast, pulsing womb of the sacred feminine where all things dissolve and are reborn. We navigate together the deep tides of Grandmother Ocean, where the emotional field speaks in waves, and true wisdom rises from the dark, salt depths.

    In the North, we become a breath carried on the ancient wind, stirring the bones of the ancestors and awakening the long-held dreams of the soul. Here, in the stillness of dreamtime, we invite sacred listening—to the whisper of lineage, the wisdom of breath, and the quiet strength that lives in the unseen.

    In the East, comes the igniting of the holy spark—fire of first light, breath of the sacred masculine, the calling of creation into form. We greet the dawn within each soul, where vision takes flight and action rises, fierce and radiant, from the heart’s true flame.

    In the South, we are finding our roots into the living earth, where dreams take form through relationship, kinship, and the sacred weave of connection. We remember ourselves as part of the great belonging—where manifestation flows through love, reciprocity, and the bonds that hold the world together. It is here that we are named.

    This tier contributes beyond the base cost, helping to fund the Seed Tier and expand access for others. It’s a gift that ripples outward.

    This tier is for those with limited financial access. It’s supported by the generosity of others and rooted in trust, mutuality, and collective flourishing.

     

    A NOTE ON PAYMENT AND EXCHANGE:

    I’m changing the way I invite support for my work, because the old ways—pricing things like products, locking offerings into rigid fees—don’t reflect the spirit this work comes from. What I offer is relational, alive, and rooted in deep listening. It takes energy, time, preparation, tending. And I know I’m not the only one navigating these shifting times—many are holding resources close, and many are quietly in need. So I’m moving toward a different kind of economy—one based in reciprocity, trust, and enoughness. I’ll be naming the real costs, offering a range of ways to contribute, and trusting the circle to hold itself through mutual care. This is an experiment in right relationship. Thank you for walking it with me.
