IMMORTAL: The Yew Tree Constellation

Constellate ancient England’s spiritual legacy and tradition with 2000 year old wisdom-keeper, Yew. Artful in their effortless immortality, they support us in seeing, accepting and integrating the old, so that we may hone our vision and craft to better lead and serve.

*****

For creative leaders, visionaries and people deftly committed to doing things differently, this is an opportunity to reconnect with ancient England’s ancestral and spiritual wisdom teachings through the unfathomable pool of knowledge that is the Yew Tree.

Yew, symbol of death, rebirth and timeless wisdom, supports us in allowing the old to be seen, held and integrated, in order to more confidently step forward, honing the blade of our vision and establishing ourselves in our craft so that we may more effectively and efficiently lead and serve.

An immersive constellation that unfolds throughout the day, offers guided rituals, visionary practices and representative roles to connect into the Field of who and what came before us - as well as a wealth of personal insights and skill developments to add to your toolbox.

Designed to unlock new perspectives and fuel the birth of fresh ideas, as well as to loop Nature into your lived enquiry on a deeper level, through the established roots of our heritage.

Having grown up in a circle of ancient Yew Trees, just adjacent to this workshop site, Harriet brings a wealth of lived and embodied experience of her communion with Yew; in both physical, energetic and Shamanic form.

At this event, she both shares some of her experiences and understanding of the part Yew willingly offers to play in the journey of human evolution, how Yew ties into the Hermetic teachings, as well as inviting you in - through the Unified or Morphogenetic Field - to experience for yourself what Yew has to offer.

Expect to spend the day outside in the woodlands of the Surrey Hills AONB, with the majestic, ancient Yew Trees. Atop a chalk and sand-ribbed landscape, peppered with Flint (varying colours of chalcedony quartz), this area is both beautiful and historic. Bisected by the 132 degree leyline (Dragon Line), it is a powerful vortex both for plant life and fauna, as well as for seekers willing to look under the hood of creation.

Please bring a packed lunch, water/ thermos, snacks and something to sit on if necessary. Residential options available, please enquire.

Places limited. Directions given upon reservation.

Feedback from previous workshops:

‘I found a renewed energy and sense of hope that came through starting to experience the energy and guidance of the yew trees. I have found them daunting in the past, but Harriet brought about a much deeper understanding of their wisdom and power, in me.I feel like I have a lot more to learn about them and would love to do more.’

‘Such a special day. It was so interesting and I thought Harriet guided and structured the day perfectly. The workshop flowed and was paced just right. Some anxieties and fear left me by the end of the day, and a few days later I am still feeling calmer and more grounded. I am still thinking through the insights and understanding I gained which is so valuable.’

Who is it for?

People of all ages, genders and associations are drawn to Shamanic practices and the Path of the Shaman. We are blessed in the British Isles with an abundant coverage of ancient woodlands and such deep heritage of being at one with the Earth, Nature, her flora and fauna. This training invites you to go deeper in your connection with some of the wisest and most potent spirits of the forest, through direct, in-person, guided communion with them in one of the most beautiful natural woodlands in the UK.

Humble and Majestic Yew is an evergreen part of the deciduous landscape of many of the older-growth forests in Northern Europe, oft on well-draining soils. Its fine, waxy needles resemble Pine, but upon closer inspection, not only do we miss the signature scent of the Pine, but also the branches are woven more densely, more intricately, less conforming to a predetermined, or predictable pattern of replication...

Yew, up close, looks like chaos itself...

Bark flaking off in flat layers, like some sort of reptilian skin, curves and twists in the slow growth of the trunk not unlike swirls of ink on the surface of water...

Overall, a masterpiece of organic creation - shaped, not only by the elements themselves, but by some preconceived intelligence that - upon aging some thousand years - actually physically turns them inside out...

As metaphorical advice to our own existence, they map out the Hero's wanderings, succumbing to chaos in his early days - and then a seeing through of perseverance, a definite and solid anchoring and taking up of space - and then a clearing out of one's channel, to run Divinity from head to root and back again...

Some say that the Yews are holders of Souls... certainly, without this clarity of channel, in my experience they can and do pick up the energy of whomever projects upon them - but as soon as they are clear-centred, there is an ethereal lightness of consciousness, when, combined with the ancient wisdom of thousands of years bears fruit for whomever opens themselves to this level of communion.

What to expect?

Journeywork with Yew Tree spirit is profoundly visual, profoundly somatic and incredibly instructive. Rather than necessarily showing up in personified form, although She/ He may well do, He holds a wider container for the deeper work to take place.
