Ancestral Rituals & Practices for Summer

Belonging: Conversations about rites of passage, meaningful community, and seasonal living

Summer feels like a ripe tomato — the peak fullness of the season where so much is revealed as the light of the sun shines down on us all.

In this episode, I complete my series of ancestral rituals for each season, with reflections on summer.

I share why summer is a season of work and rest, how this time teaches us the lessons of the Mother, ways to honor our inner wild creatures, and the power of garden time.

I also offer ideas for summer rituals, including my favorite herbal tinctures, fire practices, and embodiment practices for the season.
