Heron stands between worlds, waiting to welome you. She is a threshold keeper, serving as a bridge between land, water, and sky. Here, she operates beyond ordinary time - travelling between this world and the mystery, and invites us to gaze upon the waters of our inner worlds with presence of heart and grace.
Heron moves with Heart at the centre of all things and calls us into intimacy with the present moment, where we too can meet that place within us that expands beyond time and space.
Heart and Heron are not separate from one another. It is through embodying the sensitive nature of Heron that we can begin to listen to our Heart's wisdom and open our inner-eyes to the beauty that exists even in grief, pain, and despair.
This ceremonial container is an exploration into intimacy with our Hearts, through relating to Heron, to experience our hearts as a pulsing, alive doorway through which we can make contact with our soul and the sapience of existence in challenging times.

"...one of the warmest circles I've ever been part of...I was seen in my entirety and deeply held and supported in a way I didn't know was possible. I felt safe and could meet the depth of my own being. It was a flame giving me light to walk in the darkness. Willow is a graceful ritualist and beautiful space holder and I'm so grateful for her work in this world." - M
