RITUAL - to mark life’s milestones

A ritual is poetry in action. Rituals offer a frame or a structure for decisive moments in our lives. They create a safe space to express emotions such as love or grief at times of transition. Rituals can express a clear comittment, a final letting go, or simply gratitude and celebration. In ritual we become aware of the cycle of life and creation and of our own place in the journey through our lives.

Apart from the celebrations associated with the major thresholds in life - naming ceremonies, weddings or handfastings, funerals and memorial services, there are many other moments that we can mark with a ritual: the beginning of a new chapter in life, the renewal of vows, coming of age, leaving home, moving house, the transition into the autumn years, retirement, the death of a dear pet, the beginning of menopause, the „empty nest“, starting your own business, separation and divorce - any life changing decision or achievement you want to affirm through testimonials.

My aim is to conduct a ritual in a way that is meaningful to you, your relatives and friends. I offer a draft which you can modify to include your own ideas, symbols and readings. The ceremony can be outdoors or at any location you choose. I will listen to your needs and wishes and I will work with you.
