Spin Mother

In circle we are held,
The spindle guides our way.
As the hearth illuminates earths magic,
And the Spin-Mothers rest,
Tales of wild power are sung
As threads of crimson red
Are spun…

We invite you to share in a day of spinning, cacao, sisterhood and story.

Nestled in a yurt near to Totnes on Saturday the 15th of February 2025 we Mothers will gather in gentle ritual to craft, rest, share, replenish, celebrate and listen.

We will be weaving together the ancient craft of making thread from naturally dyed wool, with the powerful medicine of cacao, supporting us to receive the wisdom and magic of a very old Celtic story, told by myself and Isla-Rose.
We will then close with a sharing circle, to land our journey of spinning together as mothers.

We will be welcoming the beloved spirit of Mother Cacao to our day of ritual and craft. We will invite in her powerful, heart-healing medicine to support us in softening, opening and receiving the nutrients of our time together.

Isla-Rose will hold a cacao ritual and guided meditation, to create a space for you to connect deeper to the wisdom of your heart and womb.

Our intention is that this day, for Mothers of all ages and stages, will allow time to dream, reflect and replenish their inner wells of nurture, magic and inspiration.
