Welcome, my name is Tor…
My work here takes the form of ‘Soul Midwife’ and ‘Weaver’, working in reverence of the cyclical nature of Life and Death, holding the first breath of every Be-ing through to the last and beyond as sacred upon this animate and holy Earth.
I work intuitively in collaboration with many guides and allies, from plant kin and their dyes and oils to well- in- spirit Ancestors and their wisdom. Together, we honour each of Life’s initiatory thresholds, each rite of passage. Together, we weave love, protection, and medicine for the times of great transformation in ones life and of this ever changing world. I work with the ancient crafts of Spinning and Weaving and also Pottery, re-membering the sacredness of Life and Death through both clay and cloth.
My role is varied;
I may be weaving a ‘Sacred Shroud’ to lovingly wrap the body of a Soul who has journeyed on,
I may be spinning the yarn of a shawl of medicine to honour a Menopausal journey,
I may be holding 1-1 space as a Mentor for the cycle of Menstruation,
I may be sitting vigil at the bedside of a dying beloved.
But the continuous thread which weaves in each and every part of my role is that I stand as a reverent guide for a souls journey Home.
Through my work as Soul Midwife and Weaver I intend to honour and offer gratitude to Indigenous communities who have long spun and woven and tended to the threads of the great tapestry of life. I intend to inspire the remembrance of all Life belonging to sacred ground. I intend to stand in presence alongside a soul at each initiatory threshold throughout this spiralling life journey, weaving a holding for their unique maturity. I intend to support the remembrance of the sacredness of Death and Dying and the growth of well and wise Elders and Good Ancestors for the future Children who are yet to come. This work is my living prayer.
