Seed SistAs

Seed SistAs

We have begun our transformation in the Seed SistAs from the Wild n Wicked Witches, black hats moving to full skirts with many pockets filled with various Seeds…it is very exciting, off to the Radical Herb Gathering -

Working with The Seeds of Inspiration


We are focused on Seed politics and Food sovereignty. This years workshop @ the gathering shall be run as a ritual, using our innate sensory perceptions to connect with 3 seeds used a lot in our herbal practice and meet these individual plants: Oats, Rosehips and Fennel. We shall be looking at how we can use seeds to elicit change and where our individual power lies, within the politics of Food and Medicine today.


Dock
I am Seed
Here in this Moment all around me Dies,
I Stop,
Slow,
In my Heart is the Potential,
All-Consuming Passion for Regeneration.
Contained but Bursting. 
Give me Water,
Fire and Earth,
I will Transform. 
Comfrey
Come down from your lofty heights
Withered ways
Primrose Seed Pods
Nourish me
As I in turn hold the Promise of Nourishment.   
The Axis between the Worlds,
Fulcrum
Holding Court with noone but Me Myself & I. 
I Balance all the Energetic matter from the sands of Time
With the Foresight,
The Promise,
The Potential,
The Future. 
Perfect Preparation
