MONTHLY HERBAL COUNCILS
at ElderMoon School of Herbs & Earth Medicine
Come join the Herbal Council Meetings each month at EMS for one hour/month as we do what herbalists do and 'speak plant' while turning our attention towards the plants, our own needs, the needs of our people, the nature of healing, and the healing of Earth by becoming good medicine.
If you've ever turned to a plant for healing then there's an herbalist within and definitely a seat for you in this council. Learning the language and walk is easier than you think. Come and absorb.
All currently enrolled EMS Birthing an Herbalist in 13 Moons herbal students receive access to these councils for FREE as part of your study time to expand on topics touched upon lightly during course time. This allows us to go deeper into pertinent topics you desire to know more about.
Topics are announced 2-3 weeks prior and are often prompted by our current EMS herbal students as we deepen our walk as 'Herbalists'. We've opened these to beginners and seasoned herbal folk looking to connect in council on behalf of Nature and the deepening of our connection as people walking this land together. Our stories are rich and need to be told, together. Should you be completely new, this is great. Come anyway. Allow the language to wash over you and you'll see how quickly you pick it all up. You may even start your first home apothecary a few months in (wink wink). Much Love, Jen

WHEN: WEDNESDAY 11/21/2021 12PM EST NOON - 1 hr-ish. Always Recorded & Archived. 2 OPTIONS TO JOIN: You can drop in for the session for a one-time fee or join the monthly BEE BALM level in Patreon. |
Becoming Autumn - The Aligning Medicine of THE WEST
We turn through the Medicine Wheel of the year and face West fully now while the pull of the NORTH and Winter is upon us, here in the Northern Hemisphere. It's as if these two medicines dance together for a little while before one gives way to the other as the lead in this cyclic ceremony that celebrates life.
Our bodies never ignore this orientation to things.
We are Nature.
Yes, we can be less mindful or more mindful of this great dance, but we're always, always CONNECTED.
Original Council - Sunday 11/21/2021We explored the often-intense medicine of the WEST and the watery nature of the work offered in the WEST that while not easy, brings ease.
There are some stages to this medicine we explored and aligned with that will bring understanding about why we need things shook up in this place that serves a larger process happening.
We focused on "WATER Purification" techniques for our bodies as The WEST carries the medicine of WATER. We shared what we know about how to continue to clear and cleanse the internal waters of the body that are always in flow with the external larger waters.
Great council. Thank you all. xo-Jen
