Seeding Legacy

WEAVING YOUR SOUL’S WORK,
MIDWIFING YOUR CONTRIBUTION

a 4-month, one-to-one practical alchemy container

FOR SEASONED PRACTITIONERS, CREATIVES & FACILITATORS OF TRANSFORMATION, READY TO HEED THEIR SOUL’S CALLING AND CRAFT A UNIQUE BODY OF WORK IN SERVICE TO THE WORLD

“A calling may be postponed, avoided, intermittently missed. It may also possess you completely. Whatever; eventually it will out. It makes its claim. The daimon does not go away.”

—James Hillman

The Pathway

Our Journey follows the alchemical operations of the Yellowing, woven through the stages of the Dragonfly’s Metamorphosis, to mirror the universal arc of descent and emergence at the heart of initiation.

Each month, we focus on specific aspects of your SoulWork creation, starting from the (under)ground up.

Throughout our process, your astrological natal chart serves as our compass and anchor. In communion with the archetypal energies in your Soul map, carrying your psyche’s potential, you will be guided toward weaving a Work ecosystem that is both aligned with your essential nature and attuned to what the Work itself is asking of you.

MONTH I

SUBMERSION;
PUTREFACTIO & DISTILLATIO

We will begin by shedding what no longer holds Life; we will descend into your Depths, to compost outgrown versions of yourself and your Work, and gather the threads of your unique Contribution —woven through your life journey, professional experience, and natal chart.

We will work intimately with your personal Story, your Myth of transformation, to identify the ‘bones’ of your Legacy.

ASTRO-ARCHETYPAL GUIDES:
IC (Nadir), Pluto, Chiron, Hecate, South Node

MONTH II

INCUBATION;
FERMENTATIO

In our second month together, we will engage in embodied imaginal work; we will commune with your personal unconscious, the Essence or Soul of your Work, and your Daimon (Soul Guide/Inner Genius) through dreamwork and active imagination, to receive your guiding Vision, core Mythic Message and symbolic Language, and begin weaving the archetypal expression of your Contribution. 

ASTRO-ARCHETYPAL GUIDES:
MC (Midheaven), Neptune, Uranus & North Node

MONTH III

EMERGENCE;
COAGULATIO

We will then synthesise the elements, threads and allies we have unearthed into coherent form.

We will begin cultivating the right structures (from a ‘signature’ framework/body of work to a ‘business’ ecosystem) that will hold and nurture your Work.

Drawing from Jungian and post-Jungian maps of the psyche, your personal natal chart and the chart of your Work, we will focus on grounding your Vision into reality.

ASTRO-ARCHETYPAL GUIDES:
Sun/Moon, Venus/Mars & Saturn

MONTH IV

EXPANSION;
MULTIPLICATIO & PROIECTIO

In our final month together, we will explore the experience of creating from your Ekstatic Edge;

birthing the offerings that hold the charge of your aliveness and meet the longing and hearts of your people.

Our work will focus on transmitting the potency of your creations to the world and those who would most benefit from them.

We will ritualise your stepping over the Threshold of a deeper Embodiment.

ASTRO-ARCHETYPAL GUIDES:
Dionysus/Hathor, Lilith, Hermes & Jupiter

The above pathway will serve as our compass, but there is always space for adjustment to honour your unique journey and intentions.

the axis of Legacy

OUR LIFE’S WORK IS THE BRIDGE BETWEEN THE PERSONAL AND THE TRANSPERSONAL, BETWEEN OUR INDIVIDUAL PSYCHE AND THE SOUL OF THE WORLD; THE ANIMA MUNDI.

It emerges from the alchemising of our inner depths, our life story and experience, our traumas and wounding, our healing and longings, as well as those of our ancestors, into a Contribution that transcends us, that becomes an offering to the World, that serves a greater purpose in the Collective Psyche (which does not mean grand or outwardly impressive by conventional standards).

This bridge lives at the very heart of the astrological chart
, along the axis of the IC (our foundations, origins and ancestry) - MC (our vocation, legacy and contribution), and it will form the backbone of our work together —amplified and supported by all your major archetypal placements and psychic energies, as they relate to your Calling.

This is about you activating your Soul map as a whole, and channeling its energy into the creation of your Work.

This is about you embodying the archetypal Tree of Life, with your roots deep in the Soil of your Depths, and your branches carrying the harvest of your Life Apprenticeship as Medicine for One, and for All.

“Vocation at its deepest level is, "This is something I can't not do, for reasons I'm unable to explain to anyone else and don't fully understand myself but that are nonetheless compelling.””

—Parker J. Palmer

SEEDING LEGACY IS FOR YOU IF…

⪢ You are a skilled, seasoned, depth-oriented practitioner, facilitator, healer, therapist, artist, creative, and/or space-holder, who has reached a place of culmination, transition and maturation in your Work —a new chapter is calling you

⪢ You are approaching or journeying through Midlife, and feeling the unequivocal, visceral summons of your Soul toward a truer, deeper, bolder Path, in both your Life and your Practice/Art —one that brings you (back) to life

You hold many diverse threads of wisdom in the form of trainings, certifications, traditional and experiential education, and/or embodied, life and professional experience. You are now ready to extract their essence and weave them together into a body of work that is unique to you, potent and clear —a tapestry of your distilled Contribution

⪢ You desire to approach your Work in a soul-oriented, astrologically-informed, imaginal and embodied way that is also grounded and practical —to offer it both the Depth and the Rootedness it needs in order to thrive

⪢ You are in alignment with the idea of your Work having its own Soul, Essence or Consciousness, and desire to cultivate a devotional, reciprocal, living and loving relationship with it —to tune out of extraction and into Eros

Step with me into an alchemical crucible where…

…THE MYTHOPOETICS OF (RE)IMAGINING YOUR CONTRIBUTION MEET THE CONCRETE OF BIRTHING IT INTO THE WORLD…

…ANCIENT WISDOM AND PATHWAYS BECOME PORTALS OF REMEMBRANCE OF YOUR MOST CURRENT, VISIONARY PRAXIS…

…YOUR EKSTATIC EXPRESSION MEETS THE DEEPEST LONGINGS IN THE HEARTS OF YOUR PEOPLE AND THE UNFINISHED BUSINESS IN THE SOUL OF THE WORK…

…YOU GET TO LEAN INTO THE EROTIC EDGE OF BEING CLAIMED BY THE WORK, AND SURRENDER TO THE DANCE OF CO-CREATION IN DEEP COMMUNION…

kind words from the beautiful people I’ve had the honour to support…

I have worked with several coaches and guides over the years, but have never experienced all the different parts of my life and practice coming together into a whole the way I do in our work. It’s a real weaving.

— R.T.

Thank you for seeing me and my work so fully and wholly.

— J.P.

There is a sense of belonging that I’m discovering…like, I belong with my work and it belongs with me. My work feels both sacred and real, and I had been longing for this for such a long time.

— V.C.

You have a unique gift at this, and I’m forever grateful.

— N.S.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Seeding Legacy is more ceremonial, intentional and hands-on than regular practitioner mentoring. We work together in a much more intimate and immersive way on your contribution, as the culmination of your (ongoing) Life Journey, both within and between sessions.
    Seeding Legacy is more structured and focused; a ‘tighter’ container, a layered programme created to facilitate the deeper embodiment and crystallisation of your Vocation.
    Mentoring on the other hand is open-ended and more fluid, responding to what emerges from the client’s process and practice in each session.

  • Absolutely! Following our initial 4-month journey, there is the possibility of extending our work together to 8 or 12 months, through additional four-month cycles.
    Alternatively, you may transition to regular practitioner mentoring on a fortnightly or monthly basis, if you find yourself in more of an integration, ‘maintenance’ phase.
    In the final month of the programme, we will discuss what is most aligned for you and make appropriate arrangements for moving forward.

  • You register by making your payment for the first month of the programme. The link will allow you to select and book your first session only, and we will then schedule the following ones together.
    The remaining three payments will be charged to the same card you have used to make your original payment, on the same day of the month, through a Stripe subscription.

  • At this time, all of my ongoing work begins with an Orient session, which serves a dual purpose:
    1. This deep-dive, 2-hour session sets a powerful foundation and provides the original material for our deeper work together. It offers the threads and the map that we then get to bring to life and actualise in an ongoing container.
    2. It gives us the opportunity to meet each other and get an initial taste of working together, which is essential before you commit to a longer programme.
    And beyond that, based on my clients’ feedback, an Orient session is an experience you don’t want to miss! ;)

  • I hear you! It felt big to me to be speaking about it too. The key is in the verb —and in the definition of legacy.

    I’ve intentionally named this programme Seeding Legacy to signify the beginning or the more intentional engagement with the greater, life-long process of cultivating our Contribution. The purpose of this programme is to guide you into receiving and then planting the seeds of your Legacy, with the help of alchemy, astrology and depth psychology, which you will continue to nurture and be in relationship with for the rest of your life.

    The definition of Legacy I have embraced has been inspired by James Hollis’ description of the ultimate purpose of the second half of life: [to offer] the gift of our uniqueness to the great mosaic of the world. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Legacy-weaving, as a process of maturation, distillation and transmission, naturally begins in Midlife, as it requires an amount of life and work experience that we get to draw from and integrate. Having said that, the Middle Passage is a psychological rather than chronological experience, so it may manifest at a different time for each of us. Generally speaking, this programme would be relevant for you if you are in your mid/late-30s and beyond.

    If, after reading through this page, you have a sense of recognition and resonance; if you feel ‘claimed’ by or strongly pulled toward a direction in your work that requires you to both dig deep within yourself, and expand your limits and reach to midwife it; if you simply know that this would support you…

    I fully trust your knowing, and cannot wait to deepen with you <3
