What an honor it was to hold space this weekend for grown Maidens to heal the old stories from their first bleed during a Menarche Blessing.
Welcome to Womanhood, sweet one.
We are so honored to witness this
Sacred Rite of Passage.
Your body, mind & soul are reaching for the newness that only spring can bring.
You will now phase each month, just as Grandmother Moon does.
Let her guide you.
There will be times of darkness and stillness, and they are needed.
There will be times when you shine so bright the world will marvel at your brilliance.
And there will be many in-between times when you are not quite sure who you are or where you fit in. While they can be scary, those times are needed too.
Your body is a temple, sweet Goddess, and while the outside world may try to define its worth, it was woven together by forces beyond what our human minds can understand. A perfect vessel to carry the beauty of your soul.
Love her. Love her. Love her.
She was given to you for a purpose. Embrace her changes. They are reflections of your becoming.
There is no shame in your blood.
It holds power and magic.
It is a reminder to let go of what is done.
It is a compass guiding you back to yourself.
Not everyone will understand you.
That's ok. They were never meant to.
Your voice is meant to be heard.
Your emotions are never too much.
Your fears are valid, and your courage is tremendous.
Please remember that you are not alone.
We see you. We honor you.
We welcome you. We love you.
Welcome to Womanhood,
gorgeous creature.
All of you is welcome here.
Every woman, from first blood to last blood and beyond, deserves to be welcomed into womanhood this way. Imagine how different the world would be if every daughter was celebrated as they bloomed.
If your first blood was never celebrated, honored, or even acknowledged, then my love, this is for you.
Welcome to Womanhood.
All of you is welcome here.
