Welcome to the first episode of the Summer 2024 season of A Wild New Work! In this season, we’ll be exploring how to communicate with the Earth. In today’s episode, we’re looking at a pre-Christian Celtic ritual in which the land and the people were brought into intimate partnership. We’ll explore how our own modern lives could change if we were sovereign and in committed relationships with the enspirited lands we inhabit.

When an organism’s needs are met, growth naturally occurs and takes the form of some kind of flower, fruit, spore, or offspring. In the same way, when our needs are met, our blooming is inevitable. In this episode, we explore how that process occurs, how we know when something is blooming in our lives, and how to make more room for it as we head into the Summer season.

In this episode, we’re learning how plants meet their needs and what it can show us about how to be here in a good way. Plants receive sunlight and carbon dioxide freely and then, in turn, offer us an abundance of oxygen, medicines, building materials, and nourishment. Their truest nature is collaborative and generous, and the same is true for us.
