Eulogy Practice

Description

In this workshop, we will practice holding these losses in new ways by speaking poetically about things we are grieving. This workshop is in preparation for the Jupiter Neptune conjunction in Pisces on April 12. This conjunction sextiles Pluto in Capricorn. I'm looking at Jupiter as a planet of expansion and a catalyst for growth. I'm thinking about Neptune as the ruler of water and its associations with dissolvement. The sextile with Pluto lending a shoulder/reminder to witness large structures fall and/or prepare for regeneration. For some, this moment might amplify moments or memories of loss( be it tangible or ambiguous), and I'm hoping each week we can hold this loss in new ways. Eulogies are a great way to sit with what's been lost. During the workshop, I will offer a grounding meditation. Lead you through a listening space. Offer a writing prompt, where you'll prepare your eulogy of the day. Then we'll share the eulogies we've created. I hope that tears shed will act as water and nutrients for the seeds planted for Aries Season. Participants: please bring blankets, pillows or any other items you use to ground; writing materials; picture, trinket etc that reminds of you someone or something that's been lost. Flowers are always welcome! **Disclaimer: This workshop is intended to bring up emotional responses. Per @jasminehearncollaborates grieving is not to be done alone. So I am inviting you to come and grieve with me and the other participants in the space. Given that this is a deeply spiritual practice, the framework is emerging and subject to change should the needs in the space shift. Nalanda 9184
