March is here - Rise from Ash(es)
Published about 2 months ago • 3 min read
"We're all born naked and the rest is drag". - RuPaul
March Tree: Ash
The Ash - mystical, deeply rooted, and ready.
Hey Reader,
There was once upon a time that I would say something along the lines of, "well here we are in March".
But the time for "finding ourselves" almost a quarter of the way through the year is long gone.
The month of March is a time for
ACTION
Yet even as the Earth begins to brighten, we must act with the steadiness and intentionality of the Ash tree.
In the Celtic Ogam (the ancient Irish tree symbology language), Ash tree represents the time of the trickster. Therefore...
Anything is possible; and
Everything is possible. - and -
It was the best of times; and
It was the worst of times.
Last month we S.L.O.W.E.D. to hear the joyful rumblings quickening at the celebration of Imbolc inside of us.
This month, we:
Root down into our ashy roots (FYI the roots of the ash grow very very deep)
Find balance
And continue the work inwardly in order to grow outwardly. To continue to be good stewards of the land, and our bodies, and for our community members.
It's been 2 years since my gender affirming top surgery. YAY!
How do you Belong to the Land?
Our next online event to gather with us, learn some nervous system relaxation and celebrate the next step of your journey is:
Spring into your Earth Body
March 21st, online
In this Equinox gathering, we're also rolling out Abundance World's
Top 4 Tools for Managing Stress in Hard Times ...that Seem to Never End
(The title is long but your stress has been going on for longer, wouldn't you agree?)
SIDE QUEST: Forest Bathing in Newfoundland, Canada
Amidst the hustle and bustle -- I went on a side quest and got certified in forest bathing. Honestly, it was fun.
Although I didn't need it. WHY? Because I already have a naturopathic medical degree, an exercise physiology degree, am a recent graduate of the RISE Women & Non-Binary Entrepreneurship and Mental health program, a Bard in the Order of Bards Ovates and Druids (OBOD), and have lived experience as being a gender-expansive human in a world that wants us to fit in neat little boxes.
LEZBEHONEST I've been bathing in forests of science and spirit since the day I was born. Haven't you?
Please don't let these hefty credentials and the mountainous student debt fool you. I am (still) as foolish as they come and down to Earth, on purpose. Was taken by the fairies once. I'll tell you the story another time, as soon as I get out of this fairy circle...

~ Pronounced "newn" in Gaeilge ~ “Patiently growing down and growing up at the same time. Finding balance in what is.
Ensuring life for everything around you.
Working inward to grow outward.."
Many an ash branch and leaf were found in the pockets of sailors, giving them good luck against the elements; and under the pillows of maidens, giving them divinatory dreams to prophesize.
- Celtic Tree Oracle by Sharlyn Hidalgo
Have an abundant March!
