Rituals & Rebellion
The Wild Hearth Gatheri
Standing together in a collapsing empire. Seasonal wisdom, simple rituals.Ancient ways for modern overwhelm: gather, ground, remember.
A monthly new‑moon council for clarity, courage, and practical magic.
Each new moon, we meet at the hearth—an online circle to remember what is real. We tune to the season, listen for the month’s medicine, journey together, and craft a simple plan you can actually live. This is a commons for clarity and courage: grounded ritual, nervous-system care, community counsel, and the small acts that change our days. We laugh, we grieve, we aim our prayers. Then we carry the ember into our homes, our work, our lives. Rituals & rebellion—gently, consistently, together.
Who It’s For
People who feel the world fraying and want steadiness without denial.
Animists, healers, and seekers who crave both mystery and practicality.
Sensitive leaders and creatives carrying too much, ready to right-size.
Anyone overwhelmed by noise who wants a clear monthly rhythm with friends.

Why “Rituals & Rebellion”
Because tending a small flame of meaning in an extractive culture is already a refusal. Because nervous-system steadiness is a political act. Because prayer changes posture, and posture changes choices.

Tiny Vows
Three bite-sized commitments you’ll keep this month—one for clarity, one for capacity, one for care.
