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.ResourcesJoin me for Threshold sessionsExplore the other seasonal ritual episodes— Belonging Episode #92: Winter Rituals & PracticesBelonging Episode #92: Slow Emergence from Winter into Ancestral Rituals for SpringBelonging Episode #106: Autumn is the Season for AncestorsLearn more about rites of passage & transitional times—Episode #90: Rites of Passage for All of UsNorth Sea Medicine Collective
