The Elder Tree and Mother Holda, Goddess of Death Herb At The End Of The World

    • Alternative Health

Join Samwise for a tender and potent telling of their relationship to the elder tree and the elder's connections to death and rebirth. The elder tree is strongly connected to the winter deity Holda / Holle in some germanic lineages. Winter, the epiphany, January 6th, divination, grief, loss and cycles of regeneration are big themes throughout this episode. 

Content warning: this episode talks in depth about losing friends to murder, although no graphic details are shared. 

Much love and gratitude to the friends and family who also carry this grief and the gift of knowing Emilie and Dusty. 

Here's the video of Emilie singing "Trust". Thank you to Paul Stoutenburgh and Minea Herwitz for producing this beautiful video.

Here's the book on Holda that Sam mentions in the episode.  Turns out it's out of print, so let me know if you're curious about it!
