Working with the Four Directions
Do you wish to deepen your dialogue with the living world through guidance from a grounded, earth-based perspective?
In this 4 week series, we will work with the four cardinal directions and explore them as a way of encountering and collaborating with land and the more-than-human in our creative practice.
We will listen to the logic of another kind of information, and the ways of inviting that information in through the body and wisdom of the land.
Through embodied practices, creative writing, drawing, small ritual constellations and play with found objects, we will deepen our sense of the directions individually and as a collective.
I’ll introduce the four directions as I know them as a tool for cultural regeneration, self and collective accountability and healing, and listening tool for working with the land.
It will be a container to lead us into Samhain, the most potent time of the year for transformation, endings and ancestral ceremony. You can bring any medium, ongoing project, creative work to this context, or just dive in and see where it takes you.
