Binding and Loosing
Energy expands and contracts, ebbs and flows, all the time in the
minute increments of a day, in the great sweep of our lives and choices.
There are two great spiritual powers we
have in working with the flow of energy: to bind and to loose. The
occasion of a wedding is an act of binding, marking a bond with
vow and celebration. Once a vow is made with the invocation of the
Spirit, we set in motion a whole array of other choices and consequences.
It is just as important, then when through the best of our intentions,
we come to another crossroads and determine, we must "loose"
our vows. This moment, too, may require a ritual to release the
power once held by our initial vow so we are free, then to grieve,
having completed the work of a relationship now ending or re-defining
itself.
Rites of Initiation
such as welcoming a child into your family, honoring the occasion
of birth or even marking the launch of new projects and commitments
in ones life is an opportunity; this is an act of binding... proclaiming
beginnings.
Rites of Passing do honor
the passage of a life from this incarnate existence. We provide
a spiritual context, a place where this profound work of loosing
may be anchored and held.
Often we seek these services within the realm
of our own connections and communities. Having begun a relationship
with people through officiating at their marriage, Sacred
Fire Ceremonies is available for the continuance of that
relationship at other key moments in your lives. |
