Who

What

Through reading and discussion of Francis Weller's book, The Wild Edge of Sorrow, we will explore personal grief work and ritual as a community.


We will be centering our conversations around how grief shows up in and affects our relationships - all relationship types are equally welcome including friendships, partnerships, and parent/child relationships. We will use the 5 gates of grief as a framework for deeper exploration and understanding.


First Gate: Everything we love we will lose.

● Losing someone or something we love

● Loss of those who depart this Earth before us; our parents, spouse, children, friends

● Loss of home, beloved animals, places you have loved
