The Norse Völva was a seeress, a revered practitioner of magic within her community, and her lineage lives on even if many of her specific practices have not. What the Völva continues to teach us is how to build a foundation of integrity to be in right relationship within ourselves, our community, and the land.
As a living legacy of the Völva, my role is to support our remembering; to orient us back into our inner waters holding the memory of our blood ancestry. Although the explicit practices of our wisdom traditions may have been silenced long ago, and the longing for reconnection might be strong, we already contain the wisdom of our ancestors and we are already living them out. The Völva reminds us to stand in full responsibility for our role, embody our power, and walk in reverence for our interconnected nature.
As we descend into the dark months the liminal space invites us closer. Here our dreaming and the land’s dreaming seem to merge.
What if this time we become deeply familiar with this dreamweaving, sharpen our fluency in the language this relationship speaks, and soften into the season of slowness?
From November through March we restore our natural rhythm and relationship with the land, community, and ourselves through myth, storytelling, seasonal rituals, dreamweaving, kinship, wise council, and artistry.
Over these five months we’ll be held by the foundational wisdom of the Norse Völva and dreamweave with the land.
five months of bi-monthly online gatherings of wintering rituals and practical mysticism informed by the Norse Völva lineage.
five 90-minute live ceremonies sitting with the ancestral wisdom of the Norse Völva taking us into deeper contact within our natural rhythms, our artistry, and our kinships.
five 90-minute wise council online gatherings to make space to share what has been on our hearts with an opportunity for collaborative support. (these gatherings are much like how we interact within private sessions, but within a group setting.)
bonus gathering on 24 Jan.
Inside Wintering with the Norse Völva:
guidance in the art of Dreamweaving for coherent, embodied relationality within all aspects of life.
support within our artistry to create in kinship (bring a project along if you have one or start a new one if feeling inspired)
seasonal rituals and medicine making for deepening our relationship with the plant kingdom related to where we are.
each gathering is led by Norse myths to call us into the liminal and inspire listening to the land’s long-held stories.
private sessions available with Kelly for an added investment.
Elements of Wintering
-
dreamweaving
as the nights grow longer, the land’s dreaming and our dreaming begin to merge.
in the descent into the dark months, we intentionally weave our dreaming in mystical collaboration with the land where we are.
-
myth & storytelling
our relationship with where we are and the spirits that exist within the land offers a space for listening to the stories and myths that land has carried. dragon currents draw us into stores of deep memory.
our ancestral tradition of storytelling has room to reemerge and be shared around the warming fire.
-
seasonal ritual
the dark months naturally give us space to slow down and tune into the bounty of wintery medicines, rituals, and journeys to bring us together providing warming nourishment.
-
artistry
as we soften into a wintry pace our hands find their way to making.
closer to the pulse of the earth, we move with a steady and unrushed rhythm, creating in holistic resonance with the gentle movement of the landscape.
-
wise council
we gather as kin to celebrate all that was harvested, sharing in the richness of connection to land, ancestors, and one another. in wise council there is opportunity for holistic support for what arises during this time.
-
kinship
dreamweaving with the land attunes us to the various relationships we have been tending to, consciously and unconsciously.
with a greater degree of attunement, we listen to our plant kin and any creative collaboration they might be available for this season.
Origins of Wintering with the Norse Völva:
Dreamweaving into the Dark Months
This gathering is inspired by the lived experience of being reconnected to my ancestral lineage of the Norse Völva and the resonant impact of reconnection and remembering that has come from calling others in to sit with this lineage.
The galvanizing path into junior elderhood included a mystical initiation through the Dark Night of the Soul. The hallmark of this life-altering passage is a feeling of being forsaken by God and an absolute groundlessness that leaves nothing left to cling to. This journey is one that ushers us into deep trust drawn from within. As I began to ascend from the Underworld and my eyes adjusted to the world around me, there were two things I knew I could rely on— the pulse of the earth and my ability to navigate a life filled with uncertainty.
From this place I could see how the lineage of the Völva was living through me and how the practice of Dreamweaving was my oldest memory and medicine that I had taken for granted. This reconnection also strengthened a sense of responsibility for upholding the web of interconnection with respect and care.
I offer this five-month gathering for us all to remember our interconnected nature, attune to the myths & stories that arise from the where we live, return to our natural rhythm and dreamweave with the land, create in kinship, and be supported in connection through this journey of re-membering through the dark months.

Dismemberment Journey
Dismemberment Journeys can happen spontaneously or we can intentionally use this journey experience to support us when we wish to dismantle an old identity. This journey is a way for us to allow a death of an old way of being that is no longer serving us to become reborn with new gifts and awareness.
Some reasons for choosing a dismemberment journey include:
moving into a new role in life
wishing to shift to a higher vibration
feeling stuck in some way
Visionary Journey experience is recommended. This is a big journey to begin with if you aren’t familiar with the practice.
Remember to choose your time zone when registering.
You’ll receive a recording within 24 hours after the event.

visionary journeys for connecting with animal spirits

Journey Into The Heart of Sacred Union
During this visionary journey exploration we’ll:
journey into the heart of the inner Masculine and Feminine
journey into the heart of inner Sacred Union
share our experiences in recognition of our interconnectedness
offer ceremony to radiate Sacred Union
When the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine within come into harmony, the heart expands, vision is clearer, and there's a greater level of acceptance, compassion, forgiveness, and love. With an open heart, grounded in the physical world, we are able to transmit the frequency of love into action.
During these visionary journeys, we’ll honor the conversation between the polarity energies within and acknowledge the wholeness inherent in our existence.
No drum journey experience necessary!

Visionary Journey Circle to the Foundation of Your Soul
A visionary journey to tend to your foundation might not sound super sexy, but this practice gives you the ability to participate in consciously creating a sustainable place for your power to harness your creative potential.
If you've felt destabilized, confused, or hyper-sensitive, especially over the past 2 years, this practice will assist in cultivating a deeper connection with your spiritual center and purpose.
This circle is open to anyone, whether you’re very familiar with the visionary journey process or completely new to it. Instructions will be given along with the recording so that this practice can be returned to again.
We’ll have the opportunity to share insights that have surfaced and allow for integration; an invaluable process which is such a gift to bear witness to within community.
During this visionary journey circle we’ll:
learn how to tend to our foundation
learn what the state of our foundation reveals about our waking life
share the insight gained from exploring our foundation.
This offering will be recorded and available for you to download within 24 hours after meeting.
