In Australian Aboriginal culture, so the story goes, the burial of the placenta is the first feminine initiation. When the placenta is buried mother-side down in the earth, then the Earth Mother feels when the young girl is approaching her first period and can begin to spiritually guide her into womanhood.
Our placenta is our first friend, our closest womb companion, and reclaiming your placenta and this rite of passage that so many of us miss out on can bring great healing and awareness on your motherhood journey.
