Grief Magic: Rituals, Tarot & Creativity for Seasons of Loss

This week I’m joined by Georgia Wall, a ceremonial teacher and artist based in New York City, who weaves grief, creativity and ceremony together with such care. We begin with a reading from her book, The Circle Room: a book in ceremony. I really loved her October letter! We talk about how grief threads through everything we love, what it means to turn 40, and what her five-year-old twins are teaching her about impermanence.
Georgia also shares how art school, a decade as a teaching artist and years of spiritual seeking led her into ceremony work, and how she made her book from a residency to a small fabric-bound print run. We also talk about Sacred Bridge, her six-week online group experience for anyone moving through a transition, with its next cohort starting in January. You can sign up for her monthly Love Letters newsletter, and if you’re in Brooklyn on 22 November, she’s hosting a live grief circle with writing, altar work and space to hold whatever is showing up for you.

I feel re-energized around my tarot practice and I know many people return to their decks this time of year, so I wanted to record a little episode on approaches that can help us deepen our relationships to our decks and read in a way that feels more meaningful without adding a whole lot of faff that no one needs.
Here is the invite for the free winter solstice tarot workshop: https://wonderful-term-81242.myflodesk.com/s4b5ao1vu9

You know, just a casual question on a chill Friday. Of course, I don't have any clear answers, but I wanted to take you along on my mental exploration.
What I am hoping is that we can manage to embrace imperfection in ourselves and others, that we utilize new technologies when they are genuinely helpful and improve access and inclusion and that we come to an embodied orientation towards beauty, pleasure and the spirit of things.
No small feat, but so worthwhile.

...I am not trying to be dramatic, but these things really have made such a big difference and I really wish I had embraced them earlier in my life, it would have made things so much easier.
