The Way of the Willow: Healing and Re-imagining Eldership

£445.00
Sold Out

A year long Apprenticeship Pathway course
2026 registration open in September, you can register you interest for future courses here

We gather to listen, as the decaying allows us, deeply to the memories within the bones of Mother Earth.

We explore the pulsing weave, the rich tapestry, of Maiden, Mother, Crone. Through the many layering threads of our personal weave, our ancestral weave and the great Cosmic one.

This is a time to heal our Elder Wounding, beyond that of the Divine Feminine and the Divine Mother.

Here you learn to recognise yourself as The Mother, as the portal, who in each moment births … becoming the Child and the Crone.

“This is a time to revisit your innocence and hold the responsibility of guardianship for that. What wisdom do you now hold to nurtures parts that have been neglected?”

“Eldership isn’t a rigid status - it is fluid - one that moves through all three aspects retrieving innocence and purity, reparenting self with the still, quiet reflection that spins the song thread down into the well of your being, retrieving the balm of wisdom.” Willow Warbler

Suitable for those living in the Northern Hemisphere, as the weather parallels our journey, and open to exploring the feminine aspects of themselves regardless of gender.

  • We will be moving full circle meeting from November to October. A year to observe these patterns of decay and flourishment and the enchanting that weaves through it all - that magical thread of our knowing, remembrance, deepening true self, soul integrity and authenticity.

    Here we are really focusing on our Inner Elder, so they can become a healthy ancestor for our Inner Child.

    We are being invited to allow what no longer serves to fall away and decay. Also what already has done so, so it can be witnessed as the rich nutrient that brings to fruition something more aligned with our true nature, our authenticity.

    So we can become true stewards of the New Paradigm.

    As we step into our power, we step up, taking up the mantle - the responsibility for our work in the world, the knowledge of the imprint it will leave, fostering the Eldership qualities of integrity, discernment and Mastery of Self.

    Whereever we feel we may be on our path we move from abdication to advocation and a knowing that this is never a linear journey.

    • Bring more inner authority to the gifts you have to offer the world?

    Self-acceptance, the knowing that you are more than enough just the way you are, radiates an imperturbability that sets us on the path of Eldership. If this calls to that inner desire then The Way of the Willow is for you.
