💜 Blue Lotus Butterflu Blue Pea Chia bliss medicinal dessert 💙 … video tutorial available for students of The Sacred Wild in our Jan lesson … a version of this recipe is also in my book (link in bio) for anyone who wants to make delicious yum yum & isn’t taking the apprenticeship. … organic Blue Lotus & Blue Pea now available on my website 🦋💜🌹🦋🍫🥥🦋🍓💫🦋🫐💜 Something I learned a few years ago is that according to my Vedic Birth Chart, I was born under the star Ashwini. ✨ I am no vedic astrologer, but what I was told is that in ancient times, only those born under this star were allowed to prepare & touch water, foods & sacraments. 💗 . . Sometimes, when I start to fly on the wings of plants spirits alchemized in an intoxicating elixir I just intuitively blended, I smile & remember my star Ashwini. 🌟 I feel her winking down at me. 💫 . . The beautiful truth is that regardless of our astrology, the plants 💜 WELCOME US ALL 💜 & pour their generous love, teachings, and whispers into hearts and ears that are open, humble and in devotion. 🙏🏽 . . All of my favorite recipes & formulas I have ever created came from the plants guiding my hands & heart- through the senses, through my cosmic womb & heart, through the channels of ✨ delight ✨. . . 🦋💫We ALL have channels of delight, we are all made of the same stuff as the earth, the plants, the stars, the moans of Gods...💫🦋 . .

✨ Create deep safety for yourself & feed the flame daily ✨ … these are the messages coming in around portals for healing this month. The newborn sun, just barely growing in strength & daylight reminds us to give ourselves the quality of deep presence, self-care & gentleness that would come from the most loving mother. This month practice being your own best friend, create boundaries, practices, rituals & time for yourself from the guidance of your own inner healer. The body heart & soul need to feel fully held, listened to & nourished within a safe container. Only you can truly create that deep safety for yourself that is needed in order to access deep portals of healing, rest, repair & renewal in these last months of winter. So close your eyes, take some time, connect to your animal body. Feel your feelings, let them flow, give yourself space, support, safety & time. There is no guru, teacher, healer that knows the depth of what your being is asking for in order to create the truest safety. You know your language & truest needs better than anyone else. You get to listen, create, call in support. Some ways of creating safety may be: ✨ not pushing yourself past your inner resistance ✨ surrounding yourself with only the safest, most intimate & relaxing relationships. ✨ alone time curated by you to feed your soul with journaling, self care, stretching, whatever would nourish you most. ✨ doing nothing. Daydreaming & resting is so important for our soul’s wholeness & our heart health & nervous system repair. ✨ Asking yourself often: „What am I feeling right now?” Going to the root. ✨ staying warm, eating healthy soups & fatty elixirs, wearing cozy clothes. ✨ reading, meditating, yoga, therapy, writing a love letter to yourself. ✨ affirmations, self love, self care. We create safety without falling into stagnation by devotionally tending to the flame daily, ex: 🔥 daily movement 🔥 body oiling, joint massage, self massage, sauna, baths 🔥 self pleasure, making love 🔥 literally tending a fire 🔥 candles, candle magick, fire rituals 🔥laughter, passion projects, creative play. 🔥 warm broths, herbs that promote circulation & lymphatic draining. -MM

What a 🦋MAGICKAL JANUARY OPENING CEREMONY 🦋 with the School of the Sacred Wild! 🙏🏽 This month is bringing our coven into deep replenishment and restorative energies of healing, renewal, rest and creative waters. A message that has been coming through for us Apprentices is to spend the month creating deep safety for ourselves + tending the flame within. In this final month of winter, we will swim with the whales in the dreamscape of the cosmic mothers womb. Primordial songs of creation humming in our secret places. There is no guru, no savior, no healer who can guide you into creating the truest safety your unique body-soul-heart need. Learning the language of our truest selves is the path, courting the energies of life and love within us and in all of creation is our birthright and our gift as humans. Take this month to go deeper still. To release the patriarchal push that is driving all of life into madness, into destruction. Creativity is the antidote to destruction. But for the creative expression to come from Truth, release of the mind and deep rest is needed. The laying down of expectations of how it should look. Dissolving into trust. Merging with the One. And within the oneness we must tend the flame of our individuality - that is the great joke, the trick to balance, the thread that will not be lost. And so we rest & dream. We dissolve, meditate, commune, listen. We feel and move from intuition and the songs of our depths. And we tend the flame. With blissipline and practice. We remain human with human needs - earthly tasks we cannot transcend. There is magick in the mundane. And there is mundane in magick. And so it is. Blessed be. ~MM #schoolofthesacredwild #plantmeditation #herbalism #plantmagick #magick #earth #gaia #newyear #cosmic #plantmedicine #healing #nourish #nourishyourbody #thewitchsherbalapothecary #bluepea #butterflybluepea

School of the Sacred Wild herbs for January have spoken… & created this collage through my hands… I am feeling them flowing into our coven, ready to bloom into each of our hearts on our Jan monthly live ceremony & class. The theme of Jan for regenerative healing journey is … ✨ REST & DREAM🦋 Oooo I am feeling the medicine and spirits strongly arriving for us 🙏🏽 Can you see the plants in the collage I created? There are four beloveds we will be journeying with, learning from, welcoming in… They agree with Ram Dass.. “The most important aspect of love is not in giving or the receiving: it's in the being. When I need love from others, or need to give love to others, I'm caught in an unstable situation. Being in love, rather than giving or taking love, is the only thing that provides stability. Being in love means seeing the Beloved all around me.” -Ram Dass Art by me🦋 ✨ Cant wait to circle with you all beloveds in a couple days & again next week ✨♥️✨ #schoolofthesacredwild #art #collage #bluelotus #plantmagick #earthhealing #herbalism #witchsherbalapothecary #magick #consciousness #ramdass #love #goddess #thedivinemother

FARMER JACK 🙏🏽 RIP. 12.23.22 Dearest Farmer Jack, Mentor, teacher, grandfather of biodynamics, sparkly eyed friend, voice of the spiral cosmic soils, bringer of wisdom… This morning you transitioned. As the doors of dark solstice have been open, you slid in and through. I smile sadly & knowingly — good timing, dear one. I want to honor you as a teacher of mine. A friend of the soil and Earth. A wisdom keeper & mentor, a compost magician. It is such an honor to have living teachers and to be one to others. Thanks to you, Farmer Jack, my experience and knowledge of Biodynamics deepened, was practiced, embodied. So many folks have to learn from books. But I feel so lucky to have made compost alongside you, buried cow horns under your watchful eye, stirred preps with vortex spirals and an understanding that I have been able to practice for so long now and pass on to others. You opened a door for me, Jack. Translated Steiner’s cryptic words into grandfather precise mentoring. I learned so much from you. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I pray you see from the heavens this beautiful blue earth you loved so much. The ocean you lived by that fed your blue eyes and the green of lands nourished by the ways you taught, the compost you alchemized. Here are some photos for you that I think would make you happy. Know that you impacted my life and my touch in turn has brought more life to lands and humans that were hungry. You live on in the green and blue, in the light and dark. I love you.

Tis the season ✨🍄🎄💫🙏🏽🌹 In the holy portal of the fertile dark & the tending of the flame reborn, here are some of my personal rituals & practices that have been flowing through me this solstice… ✨ Celebrating the last full moon of the year. ✨Following her energetic waning release in my energy & practices to enter the Winter Solstice ✨Getting outside each day. To drink in the moonlight, to be under the stars, to walk & create heat from the fire in my body for the cold all around. ✨Talking to the sun. ✨Bidding the sun goodnight from a mountain top on the eve of the solstice, giving gratitude & praise for the life it gives us, asking sweetly for it to return & for light to gain strength over dark. ✨Celebrating the Winter Solstice as the New Year. ✨Honoring the 12 days after the solstice as the first days of the new wheels waxing face - a time traditionally no work was allowed - a time to feed the forces of light, joy & flame with feasts, prayers, celebrations & rituals. ✨Drawing one card each day for 12 days to represent the 12 months to come. ✨Minimizing electronics & communications with the outer world. ✨ resting deeply. ✨Divination, prayer, journaling, reflections, processing alone & with trusted companions. ✨Reviewing & digesting the medicine, challenges, lessons & gifts of 2021z ✨Rituals of closure, integration & release. ✨Candle magick. ✨keeping my connections close, intimate & cozy ✨cooking whole foods from a local farm ✨dropping into my roots, getting into the body, moving energy every day. ✨ Praising the Holy Mother. ✨ Swimming in the non linear ✨ Cuddling ✨ Making traditional foods ✨ Being present with the land & people around me. ✨ Being present with the feelings within. How are you feeling in this holy portal? Take these 12 days as sacred. Make a little offering to the Sacred Wild each day - a song, a food, a prayer. Tend to the flames of wonder, joy & insight within you. We are slipping through the dark, spinning threads of light to come. Blessed be!

Last of the winter solstice sunlight… Prayers spoken in, offerings prepared for the dark night receiving. Come back tomorrow, radiant Sun, life giver! As you rise and stretch the days longer, light stronger, burn away the darkness inside human hearts, the ignorance inside human minds, the old lies that keep us prisoners chained to systems and patterns of harm. Burn it away and let it become dark. Still. Quiet for a moment Pause. A void pregnant with possibility. May the light inside of each of us illuminate and heal the dark within & around. May the forces of light be strongly fed tonight! And may we become catalysts for miracles, Join me in seeing & feeling miracles birthed through us, through others around us, upon this Holy Earth. Blessed be! #wintersolstice #schoolofthesacredwild #pray #miraclesindarkness #wheeloftheyear #renewal

Blessings beautiful world full of light and dark ✨ Winter Solstice blessings to all of you near and far ♥️ May we feed the forces of light in our bodies, hearts, families, communities and upon the blessed body of the Earth Mother. ✨ May we slow down, get quiet enough to listen to the voice of the Earth and of our hearts ♥️ May we feed the forces of good. Lets turn the great wheel, magickal ones. Towards life, hope, renewal, a brighter, lighter way… Love & All blessings from my heart!

Winter magick… “Life is being drawn into the earth, painlessly descending down into the very heart of herself. And we as natural human animals are being called to do the same, the pull to descend into our bodies, into sleep, darkness & the depths of our own inner caves continually tugging at our marrow. But many find the descent into their own body a scary thing indeed, fearing the unmet emotions & past events that they have stored in the dark caves inside themselves, not wanting to face what they have so carefully & unkindly avoided. This winter solstice time is no longer celebrated as it once was, with the understanding that this period of descent into our own darkness was so necessary in order to find our light. That true freedom comes from accepting with forgiveness & love what we have been through & vanquishing the hold it has on us, bringing the golden treasure back from the cave of our darker depths. This is a time of rest & deep reflection, a time to wipe the slate clean as it were & clear out the old so you can walk into spring feeling ready to grow & skip without a dusty mountain on your back & chains around your ankles tied to the caves in your soul. A time for the medicine of story, of fire, of nourishment and love. A period of reconnecting, relearning & reclaiming of what this time means brings winter back to a time of kindness, love, rebirth, peace & unburdening instead of a time of dread, fear, depression & avoidance. This modern culture teaches avoidance at a max at this time; alcohol, lights, shopping, overworking, over spending, bad food & consumerism. And yet the natural tug to go inwards as nearly all creatures are doing is strong & people are left feeling as if there is something wrong with them, that winter is cruel & leaves them feeling abandoned and afraid. Whereas in actual fact winter is so kind, yes she points us in her quiet soft way towards our inner self, towards the darkness & potential death of what we were, but this journey if held with care is essential.
