More people are discovering nature-centered Judaism spirituality and are looking for new ways to celebrate the important times in their lives. As people from different faith traditions and cultures create families through marriage, having children, or living together in intentional communities, they may find that the traditions of modern society and traditional Judaism do not fit their needs or may be non-existent. I provide a full compliment of Kohenet (Hebrew Priestess) services to those in need - Jewish or Gentile.
My mission requires that I collaborate with clients to create a personal ceremony that celebrates their life journey and gives voice to their worldview and spirituality. I specialize in earth-based Judaism, interfaith, and Judeo-pagan rites of passage – from baby blessings to coming of age, marriages to funerals. I also am blessed to have wonderful collaborators and teachers to work with in developing rituals such as Angela Raincatcher, Holly Taya Shere, Rabbi Jill Hammer, and D’vorah Kelilah.
