Stone Circle and the safety to change ⚪


Before I make a flower essence, I create a container.

I call the directions, connect with spirit and the plant, and begin the work within a space that feels intentionally held.

I’m bringing that same practice into Sovereign Ground.

We’ll be looking at difficult history, inherited patterns, and the possibility of conscious change. And I don’t want to begin by asking us to push through patterns that may have been trying to protect us.

I want to begin with support.

The first ally I’m calling in is Stone Circle, an environmental essence from Alaskan Essences.

Steve Johnson discovered this essence site within a natural formation of nine major stones in the Talkeetna Mountains of Alaska.

He described it as profoundly protective—a feeling of coming home to a place where all is possible, where we can rest and be nurtured before venturing out again.

I love that image for this work.

A place we can return to while exploring what an old pattern has been trying to protect.

This way of working—beginning with support rather than forcing change—is woven throughout Sovereign Ground.

Stone Circle will be the first of three overlighting allies for the course, helping us establish a container before we move into the history and the Five Pillars of Visibility, Value, Voice, Desire, and Power.

Flowering Reader, Sovereign Ground is now open! And now that we’ve arrived at the beginning of this journey, I want to say a little more directly what I mean by the Witch Wound—and why I chose it as a framework for this course. You don’t need to identify as a witch. You don’t need to practice witchcraft. And you don’t need a witch in your bloodline. For me, the Witch Wound is a lens for looking at patriarchal trauma through the history of “witch” persecutions. A history in which being a...

Flowering Reader, A quick reminder that Early Bird enrollment for Sovereign Ground ends tomorrow, October 16. Over the past few weeks, I’ve shared some of the flower essence allies we’ll be working with—Golden Yarrow for visibility, Stone Circle for creating a protected container, and Buttercup for inherent worth. But before the Early Bird period ends, I also want to name clearly what makes this course different. Sovereign Ground is a flower essence course exploring patriarchal trauma, the...
