Doomscrolling on Instagram yesterday paid off when I scrolled past this new release! You’d never guess it by my red hair and freckles, but my DNA is largely Irish. Haha. My ancestors came to the US during the famine and it led to generations of trauma. Part of my healing path has been reconnecting with my ancestors and all that generational matrilineal wounding. As I’ve learned more about them, Ive been fascinated by keening, especially since large swaths of my ancestors came from the west of Ireland and areas with ancient ritualistic practices and where the language and traditions weren’t completely wiped out by colonization. Kinda cool that my people come from and have deep history in areas near ancient ritualistic sites. As near as I can tell, my family likely still spoke Irish until about four generations ago. Anywho, I ordered this newly released book to aid me in my grief over so many things right now, but mostly the person I had to be in order to survive. and for my ancestors. There’s been something magical and ethereal about learning about Irish herbal medicine and learning the Irish language as I’ve walked this part of my path. I don’t think it’s an accident that I’ve been reconnecting with my ancestors at this juncture.

September feels different. (All Monthly Offers Can Be Viewed on Our Homepage or in the Calendar) The recent eclipse season has brought revelation for so many of us. Things we have been circling for months are becoming harder to avoid. Relationships. Patterns. Decisions. Truths about ourselves. Places where we stayed quiet, waited, accommodated, reacted, or simply could not yet see what was happening. So this month, we are beginning something new inside the Magdalene Network. Each month, we will choose one of the Powers from the Gospel of Mary as a lens for our circles, practices and conversations. SEPTEMBER POWER: IGNORANCE Not ignorance as stupidity. Ignorance as what we could not yet see. The unconscious pattern. The belief we inherited. The truth we weren't ready to admit. The decision we postponed because some part of us still hoped we wouldn't have to make it. Awakening can be exhilarating, but revelation can also hurt. September is about learning to see clearly without using what we see as another weapon against ourselves. Can we forgive the woman who didn't know yet? Can we love ourselves in the space between revelation and decision? Can we listen deeply enough to know what is true before fear rushes in with an answer? That is the work we are moving through together this month. _________________________________________________________ 🌹 WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 | WRITE RIGHT MEDICINE 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET Magdalene Initiates Our first September circle begins on the page. This month we'll write into the places where something has become impossible to unsee. What do I know now? What am I angry I didn't see sooner? What decision have I been postponing? What would I say to the woman I was before I understood what I understand today? You don't need to be a writer. You simply need to be willing to listen. __________________________________________________________________ 🌹 WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9 | SOUL VOICE ACTIVATION

My morning meditation brought these words to me: “body- you are safe and you are free.” I repeated it out loud over and over “body- you are safe and you are free” and felt such a wave of peace and deep exhaling coming over me. Guess this is my mantra for today and however long it takes for every fiber and cell in me to know it for certain.

Tonight at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET, we gather for our first Write Right Medicine circle. This month we’re working with the Third Power in the Gospel of Mary: Ignorance and the places where new awareness allows us to see what we could not see before. Writing is a somatic practice. When we slow down and move words from the body, through the hand, and onto the page, thoughts and feelings that are difficult to name can finally have somewhere to go. What to expect tonight: 🌹 We’ll arrive and ground together with breath and meditation. 🌹 We’ll invite Mary Magdalene into the circle as witness and guide. 🌹 You’ll receive guided writing prompts connected to Ignorance, inner judgment, safety, truth, and returning to yourself. 🌹 There will be quiet writing time with music. 🌹 You’ll have the opportunity to share what feels ready to be witnessed. No fixing. No advice. Just presence. 🌹 We’ll close by integrating one piece of wisdom, a word, question, or intention to carry forward. You do not need to be a writer. Bring a journal, a pen, and a willingness to listen. You may arrive with a question. You may leave with an answer. Or you may discover a better question. ✨ Write Right Medicine is included for Magdalene Initiates · ($27/month) Upgrade to Magdalene Initiates here: https://www.skool.com/the-magdalene-network/plans 🌹 Free Magdalene Network members may attend tonight for $17.

I realize this is a weird question, but honestly, a year ago I thought a lot of things I do all the time now were weird, so since my idea of weird is skewed anyway, I’m asking. How many women here have RH Negative blood? I’m very curious. Thanks in advance!
