Wow! I just had another incredible experience with the mamas and daughters in the Devon community, and I adore them all. This time, I was joined by my beloved sister and apprentice, Jane Devin. She is a powerful force of Mother Earth, stepping in as a younger sister to continue this important work. I am so grateful to have her as my apprentice and for her willingness to immerse herself in everything that has been birthed through the Map of Womanhood School.

As some of you know, I am nearing the end of my time participating in the in-person lodges of mamas and daughters who have followed my programs—there are too many to count now. I am preparing to pass on my legacy to the incredible younger sisters who are at the threshold of their own journeys into the village of mothers of adolescent girls. This transition creates a profound space within me, paving the way for the establishment of the Sanctuary and The Sunheart Temple School in Portugal.

This weekend, Jane and I worked together with the mamas and daughters of one of the girls' lodge, which has been meeting once a month for four years. Our time together was sublime! We held a Rites of Passage ceremony to honor the girls' first blood, and we acknowledged the mothers while letting go into the fire. This allowed us to reimagine the mother-daughter relationship as the girls step into the sense of self they have built over the past four years within the lodge. This sense of self has been the preparation for the teenage years as a spiritual quest and has been informed by all the mothers who committed to the program

The journey of the girls was marked with ceremony, representing a deep dive into the spiritual quest of the teenage years that lies ahead for them. We welcomed them into the Red Tent, alongside their mothers, witnessing this beautiful transition.

Seeing the girls now and how they have changed and grown since I first met them 4 years ago is so beautiful. I am so so proud of them. I am so so proud of the mamas who are so committed to the program, who trust my work and who welcomed Jane into the role of witnessing them all. These mothers are epic and what they have done for their daughters is going to bear fruit as they change. That will change the culture of holding that our daughters need from us all before they hit the teenage years.

Thank you thank you thank you to all mothers and women that have come through the school... I love you

Sisters . Please join Racheal Crow and I for our deepening woman to Elder 9 month journey. It will be so deep and sacred. Eartha and Rachaels experience of working in grass roots communities for over 12 years with women, mothers and their daughters will be woven into this course. Years of building the village and growing our daughters through their rites of passage have brought Eartha and Rachael towards their embodiment. Years of catching up on their own past rites of passage ceremonies, recovery of their past thresholds, movement through present initations and navigating future transitions are all given in this course. So many women have taken this journey and their healings are testimony to this work
in love Eartha and Rachael. Comment SISTERS for more info

I want to speak to incomplete initiations and badly held Rites of passage programs and the egos that try to hold this work and are not qualified. YES I OFFER A CERTIFIED TRAINING!!!! WHY?

I tell you why. If you haven't done the work inside of yourself to catch up on your own adolescence and the rites of passage ceremonies you moved through as a child, young person , mother then you are not qualified.. to hold girls, boys, youth and any rites of passag.

how can you do this work if you haven't experienced moving through a rites of passage fully, if you haven't been initiated and not only that if you where never held , witnessed , honoured and celebrated through the spiritual quest of adolescence.

The reason why I started this work was for my own daughters, I quickly realised that the women's inner girls were getting triggered by the girls they were trying to mentor on their journey to womanhood.

I created this work as a strong container so this would not happen . We cannot have girls and young women being brought into circles of camps, or programs of rites of passage with uninitiated women holding ceremonies and teachings. Those inner teenagers and inner girls that have grief, sorrow, fear , lack of understanding will start kicking off. The inner girls of unintiated women have no idea what it feels like to receive, to be witnessed, to be held, to move through a death consciously, to navigate a dark night and to expand into a resurrection.

They cannot give what they don't have so they kick off. If you hold an incomplete rites of passage ceremony for a girl or young woman from that lack it can be devastating for the girl who needs to be held properly, it can be very traumatic. It can be more traumatic than not ever having a rites of passage ceremony. My training is support to build a strong container to co create rites of passage ceremonies as a village of initiated women.

Clarissa pinkola Estes says it how it is
In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés cautions against starting psychological or soul-deep initiations under guides who are not fully initiated themselves. Incomplete initiators lack deep knowing, omit vital steps, and can unintentionally harm or abuse the initiate because their own understanding is fractured

Dear Dear community.
Maybe some of you remember that I started a podcast a few years ago. It's called voices of the elders. It's a spiritual platform for us and the future generations to hear the elders speak about life, death, this time on earth, rites of passage and more. I really need help to get more followers and subscribers so I can get more elders to speak on it. It's just not visible enough. My vision especially is to have our children, our grandchildren and the next 7 generations and beyond to have a place to hear the elders who have gone before them speaking to this time on earth we are moving through. So they can hear wisdom that is becoming increasingly hard to find... Please subscribe and share so we can get more elders to see it. The link to the you tube channel is in the comments.
love you all
Eartha
