Hi Friend,

I admit: I can veer towards under-sharing some of what I’m most looking forward to and with which I’m delighted. As if by keeping them close I can keep them safe. It's a nice theory that only works a little bit.

Some upcoming things I’m excited about right now include the next ReMembering course. Orientation is this Sunday. This course, more than any other, is precious to me: embarking on it is special. We have 2 or so spaces left: email me if you are interested!

For planned travel to England, where I'll be speaking and doing some co-facilitating at a Family Office conference on Origin Stories, and taking more meaningful, relational action around climate solutions in Yorkshire; after which we will be co-hosting a small gathering of people in Europe interested in deeper conversations about governance, decolonization, discernment, and shifting institutions in a magical forest in the South of England.  For rituals: Beltane, couples celebrating their love, and merrymaking.

For meetings with others who are asking the same kind of powerful questions at the intersections of wealth and climate change and shifting embedded colonial structures. For podcasts that are in the editing room. For the chance to create a super amazing Easter gathering with my mom, my partner, and some of our community. For a writing retreat for myself.  For the work being done in the context of my witchy spiritual direction clients.  For the next course, I'm creating this summer - I will on the difficult transition and relative loss of indigenous European systems of practices and beliefs during the transition to the middle ages and the Christianization of Europe. It’s going to richly add to the kaleidoscope of historical remnants, stories, and patterns I’ve been piecing together. 

Which is why I’m adding it for free as a  BONUS for participants in the ReMembering course! (It is tentatively titled, 'Update from the middle ages') that I will be releasing this summer, probably in July, looking at the Christianization of Europe. It shares information that is not normally in the ReMembering Course, but which fits into it really well.  

So many of the cool things, and certainly the flurry of forthcoming gatherings in England, arose from the knowledge and the wisdom and the relationships that have come out of practicing (learning, teaching, returning to) the art of remembering.

Remembering supports us. It supports discernment: collective and individual.

That's partly because it helps you see patterns differently.   

Certainly, for myself, my capacity for discernment has significantly increased since I've been learning and teaching these remembering courses.

I've had times in my life when I've really, really struggled with discernment. In fact, there have been times when my discernment has been so bad I could barely find my way out of some quasi-dangerous situations.  That's a longer story for another time. These histories were part of the larger anchor roots and mycelium that helped change that for me.

It’s all part of working with time and space differently.

This is the work from which wisdom can and does and will arise. 

Perhaps you will join us for one of our upcoming offerings. And I’m always curious how/what you are remembering and reenchanting.

All the best,

Sara Jolena
