To my daughter on her birthday

Seven years ago today I birthed my beautiful daughter into the world. A baby girl whose spirit I carried on my shoulder, a soul whose weight of desire to exist made it's presence known daily, who defied the odds of creation and made me truly understand that conception begins in the heart of the womb which only knows love and truth.

She never ceases to amaze me with her understanding of the spiritual and the physical, her astonishing memory and curiosity. Her ability to be both ancient and child. Her vital force that infuses everything she does with passion and purpose.

My freebirth baby who encoded in me the original blueprint for birth so I would never forget the rawness of the wild and holy design.

I hope I will have the honour of being your mother again, although as you say, next time you can be the mummy and I'll be the little girl.

I hope to continue to show you that your pockets are overflowing with ancestors and angels and guides, then next time you can share this wisdom with me and help me to remember.

Signs you've been on the womb path for more than one lifetime...

Have you ever wondered if the womb path is for you? I have worked with women for many years, and common themes emerge in those women who are destined for the womb path and have been walking it for many lifetimes....

1. Born into a family with womb trauma in the maternal line

Women on the womb path often incarnate into families where the most healing is needed. They have come as healers and cycle breakers for this particular line and change makers for future daughters.

2. Experience of domestic and sexual abuse

Women on the womb path are often taken advantage of in relationships as their womb power is seen as a resource to be exploited by others, while in relationship with you abusers do not want to let you go as they are able to achieve their dreams quicker and access states of consciousness they previously could not.

3. Deep fear of speaking up and expressing yourself

Women on the womb path may have been persecuted in past lives for how they expressed themselves, even to death. This may have continued into childhood in this lifetime where they have a fear of being perceived, or feel persecuted for how they express themselves.

4. Womb initiations of pleasure and pain

Women on the womb path experience each initiation as powerful, this can be either deeply painful or deeply pleasurable. It can be unbearable symptoms that lead them back to the womb, or an ecstatic childbirth, or trauma.

5. Difficulties with mental health

Women on the womb path are often highly gifted oracles and sensitive channels, if this power is not grounded in the root of the womb it can express itself as difficulties with mental health. Women notice that these symptoms often start around menarche and continue until the womb is brought into conscious awareness.

Queen Anne's Lace

Last year one of my doula clients had a dream about me and her and queen Anne's lace... what could it mean, she asked?

This was around the same time I took a decisive step on my plant path, when I asked my husband to choose a pendant for me from Flower and Fable to be my ally going forward... He chose the Queen.

I've long believed this plant to be a witch herb, one of it's folk names being "mother die", as the story goes your mother will die if you bring it into the house. Folklorists suggest that this is because it sheds all over the house and will make your mother cross. Perhaps they don't know that women used to eat the seeds to prevent an embryo implanting when they did not wish to become pregnant. What if your mother had been caught with this plant in her home hundreds of years ago? The Queen has long had women's best interests at heart...

As a flower essence she balances the sexual centres. Like the Moon card in the Tarot, we have our animal impulses and our connection to something higher and sacred, the sweet spot is when we realise the wild and holy intersection. Queen Anne's Lace brings us into sacred union with that which is animal and angel.

Last week my doula client came to visit and we took my doula baby for a walk for his nap, we walked around my village and took a route I've never gone before. We found ourselves in this magical field of Queen Anne's Lace. Her dream had come true.

The plant had drawn us to her.

We had known her in this life and many others.

Time folded on itself as it has done many times before.
