I once called myself an Urban Pagan. I even spoke I once called myself an Urban Pagan. I even spoke on Triple J radio about it.A burning misunderstanding of soul memory, ancestral roots and a pathway home to the Divine She had awoken in my twenty-something heart.It led me to my ancestral lands to encounters with adult stags in the forest by moonlight (the ones with antlers, not brides), pick up fragmented soul parts and dance between standing stones in the snow.Later when my Apprenticeship was over and my Journeywoman time had begun, I’d swim naked in the waters north of the Daintree, where She was wild, untouched and untamed. Where the language of the Sacred Feminine was unshackled from my soul.For years, decades, this time, the Autumnal Equinox has been my siren call to go home.
To go within.“Leave your worldly things”, Her voice would call, “Remember who you are.”And my soul would sigh and then jump with delight and run and run like the wind couldn’t catch me. Until safe, home, deep in my inner life, my gnowing cave, I would remember who I am.Last year, whilst en route to my well-practised returning. Spirit snagged my foot. “Wait”, She said. So I did.I didn’t return. But I didn’t stay.
I spent the year in a strange half-light midway between worlds.Deep enough to pull my daughter’s incarnational threads out of her personal hell realm. The astral shards from her Fatherline that weren’t mine to touch or heal needed to be burnt off by herself to create her own wisdom making.I stayed halfway between the light and dark to catch her and guide her home.
I also stayed in the twilight to weave a new kind of magic.Last year, from the March Equinox to the Summer Solstice, I birthed the Guardians Initiation.For nine months, symbols and glyphs were gouged from my arms and legs, ancient marks speaking a language of Embodied Elderhood. Gateways returning the Divine Feminine to Sacred Masculinity was carved from my bones.To my troop of truly courageous men, I returned what ... continued in comments ... or //www.ministryofshe.com/autumnal-equinox-time-to-go-within/
Don't miss out on this chance to bond with your da Don't miss out on this chance to bond with your daughter - there's one spot left in our Mother-Daughter Circle! #RaisingSacredGirlsHonestly, I didn't think I would run this work again. But the persistent few who have been asking for this (for years) have won over.So here it is ~ Wise Mother's online training starts tomorrow night and our Raising Sacred Girls circle starts on Friday.My intention is to share
E V E R Y T H I N G I know.

I can show you how to trust yourself. Completely!Join us!With love, Lhamo x ❤ xwww.ministryofshe.com/wise-mama-raising-sacred-girls/
Question : How many women have I worked with who h Question : How many women have I worked with who have had to go back to their very early childhood to reprogram their relationship with their sensuality and body connection?Answer : Too many.Probably thousands. Most like all.Conditioning and oppression stick. But the way to unravel it is always available.As mothers, we heal ourselves, over and over, as we grow the awareness to see our children as they are, not through the lens of who we think they should be.Our daughter's emerging womanhood is permanently wrapped in her relationship with her body and her sense of safety in her embodied self.Is her body, her joy, and the sensuality of being alive safe or is it wronged or made scary?This second stage of becoming a woman starts with becoming her whole and true self. You can support her by evaluating what version of being a girl or a woman you were asked to adopt and if it's the same value system that you want her raised in.If she doesn't belong to her own body and emerging self, then who do they belong to?We dive right into these questions and unpack your own answers in the second week of Wise Mothers. This can be both painful and confronting work. But it's worth it.When you know where you end and your daughter's autonomy begins, you will have sacred and powerfully loving edges when her hormones and desires push her out into the world.You will know how to maintain the fiercest and most lovingly kind boundaries. You will know how to keep her safe.Wise Mothers : Raising Sacred Girls begins March 7th. Details in Bio.With love Lhamo| Ministry of She
Empowering mothers to create a stronger bond with Empowering mothers to create a stronger bond with their daughters as they grow! 💕 #WiseMothers #RaisingSacredGirlsIn Wise Mothers, I will share the Seven Sacred Stages of raising a girl from birth to adolescence to consciously emerge into her embodied womanhood.Its more about allowing than guiding.
Its more about healing ourselves than teaching.The first stage is PROVIDENCE ~
the life energy, epigenetics, DNA and attachment you provide her with.Heads up : The Is No Such Thing As Perfect.Providence means two things ~
What you are given by God / Divine and
A timely preparation for things coming in the future ...When a soul is born female, she has EVERYTHING she need to unfurl into her own expression of womanhood.She does not need drugs, social conditioning, surgery, oppression, or control to become a woman.
However, she does need love, guidance, nurturing and protection. To unfurl the woman, she is becoming.This first stage 'sets the scene' for her emergence. How safe the world is, how safe it is to be her, how pleasurable her body is, how safe love is - is all defined before she is seven.This is the time in her life that you as her mother, does the most groundwork. She is learning everything by watching and being.Show her how safe it is to be in a body by allowing her to explore life through it. use your birth experience. If it was dodgy, learn from it and heal it.Get honest about your own conditioning. Respect her body autonomy.And most importantly, heal your own mother-daughter grit. The karma hurts and conflict that stop you and your mother from being at peace.She is the next evolution of your maternal lineage. She carries YOUR matrilineal DNA. Clear out your epigenetics.Heal your own birth trauma, then heal hers and set you both free.I'll sho you how, plus rituals and process and resources to get you there in Wise Mothers : Raising Sacred Girls.More info in Bio. We start online worldwide next week.We'll explore Stage Two tomorrow.love Lhamo x#Comingofage #motheranddaughter #sacredfeminine #mother #wisemother #goldcoastwomenscircle #RitesofPassage #motherhood #motherhoodjourney #tweens #menarche
This has taken a while. At least sixteen years. It This has taken a while. At least sixteen years. It feels like a lifetime ... but here you are:
WISE MOTHERS : RAISING SACRED GIRLS
~ my contribution to the many and wonderful mother-daughter teachings and Coming of Age / Rites of passage movement.
I almost didn't finish this (if it wasn't for the pestering 😍) ... but its time to give this wisdom away and make sure it's safe, kept whole and _embodied_ in other families ~ so it can stay safe for generations.
Raising your girl from 0 - 16 by modelling and teaching her :
- body autonomy
- self-confidence
- healthy boundaries
- sovereignty
- self-connection
- cyclic connection
- shamelessness
- innocence & pleasure
and how to depart her mother's (your) world, navigate her estrogen-fueled storms, avoid the (social media) sharks, mental health whirlpools and mean girl traps to arrive congruent, authentic and whole in her full-bodied womanhood.Coming-of-age circles HAVE TO BE more than teaching about menstruation, body changes and cyclic awareness.We are living in a time where there is a real agenda for women's body erasure.
In this crazy time of world wide gender dysmorphia, there is a call for the one thing that can always save us ~ the sanity of sacredness.That women's embodiment is sacred
That our capacity to birth is sacred
That our - her - innocence and wild, emerging and fully expressed sexuality - ARE SACRED!We are the mothers that can raise our girls to be the living embodied flame that will set fire to an old and dying world and also be the phoenix that rises in rebirth from it.lol. If we survive their tweenage firestormIm calling the mothers of the mystic daughters who are already wiser or more spiritual than they are.Im calling the mothers of those passion wielding, headstrong fire maidens.I have raised one of both.
I have a map of their wild and uncharted territories.Let me support you to support them, these amazing wild girls, to guide them wisely and safely into their embodied womanhood.
Together we can liberate and nourish generations. Link in Bio.

STARTING YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE ...Your spiritu STARTING YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE ...Your spiritual life is like a magnificent castle, says medieval mystic Teresa of Avila. This palace is our birthright. It's the home of our soul.Most people never enter, or if they do, they get stuck on the surface, either hanging out having a smoke with the guards or dawdling in the first room where the lizards and creepy things are (yes, that's what she called them).The gateway to the castle is prayer and meditation, and to get there, like to do the type of prayer that isn't a desperate shopping list of unfulfilled needs, you need two specific things ~Humility and giving up comparison.There is no perfect way of doing your spiritual practice, Teresa tells us, except following the love that is in your heart. And not caring about what you appear like, either to yourself or anyone else❤️ A humble heart is how you start. ❤️Isn't that beautiful?
Doesn't it take the pressure off?All you need to enable you to commit to a juicy, daily, life-enhancing, sustainable spiritual practice is ~ a humble heart. And when you have a humble heart, what you awaken is your tender, mystical and deeply embodied soul ...
You come home to your soul.In 2020 just before another lockdown, I felt the buzz and crackle of another body of work about to drop through my system (I was on my bike at the time; it was a little disconcerting).I'd been reading Teresa's Interior Castle, and I had just enough time to call a group of women together when the star dropped and the seven-day vigil (consistent practice) of HomeComing to Soul burst into our world.A morning, a mid-day and an evening practice, a gentle, deep, succulent heart-opening butt kick to rocket your spiritual practice back into the effortless centre of your busy, messy, mothering life.Homecoming is starting again online this Sunday, 5th Feb and I have space for 33 humble hearts to join our online sanctuary and virtual hermitage.It's only $55 until tomorrow night (31st). I would love you to join me. ❤️ Link in bio.With love and rapture,Lhamo x ❤️ x#homecomingtosoul #spiritualawakening
