Rites of passage in a box
Throughout history and across cultures humans have used rites of passage to mark the times of transition and to transmit the beliefs, attitudes and values of the culture to the individuals participating in the rites.
We pass through different phases in our lives whether we bring awareness to these changes or not. So why not bring awareness to these important changes?
The Rites of Passage kits will help you understand, honour and celebrate your life season with conscious ceremonies
to honour the important transitions in your woman's life. They contain all the materials and simple step by step instructions for each ceremony.
Just like the Earth our women's life cycle is marked by seasons. Spring is the Maiden, Summer the Mother, Autumn the Queen or Matriarch/Maga and Winter is the wise Crone
Each season is heralded by a Rite of Passage
Spring/Maiden is marked by puberty - the Menarche; Summer/Mother is heralded by childbirth. Autumn/Maga is the time of menopause and Winter/Crone can be considered as marked by the relaxation of worldly duties in retirement.
Moonsong has created for you the following three Rites of Passage, each in a colourful box.
SPRING MOON - Welcoming your daughter to Womanhood.
A ceremony to honour the Maiden's menarche.
SUMMER MOON - a Blessingway.
A ceremony to honour the Mother to be.
AUTUMN MOON - Honouring and Celebrating Menopause.
A ceremony to honour a woman's change of life.
The contents of the box are chosen to enable you to create a permanent altar somewhere appropriate to you. Included are: an altar cloth, sage, a candle, incense, a relevant crystal and instructions to perform the ritual.
