To a large extent, I use this space to reconnect to Source, to plants and to the natural world and honour the divinity within it. By connecting to the natural elements, I walk along the path of my ancestors acknowledging the monumental shift that has pulled us away from nature and humanity’s slow and humble crawl back to it. These journeys connect us back to the spiral of life, back to the energetic centre of balance where we can draw on new technologies to become allies in the resistance against the great slumber (the great death).

Plant knowledge is revolutionary in the Caribbean and to indigenous peoples around the world. It is the connection to Source. Plants carry medicine, ease, cure, swift death, memory and the customs of a people wrapped up in magick and ritual. We are trapped in the great forgetting. This journaling is a way to come into alignment with their transmissions, to redefine my creative energy and to remember.

Corilla or carila - tie it around your neck to ward of stiffness. Macerate or pound the leaves in a bush bath to sap away stagnant energy. Revitalizing and cooling.
