Bells, Whistles & Bling
Wax Pouring Ceremonies
Anyone who has studied, practiced or worked with me knows I’m not “into” bells, whistles & bling. Culturally-centred healing knowledge and practices are not about “show”. They are about how we live and show-up in our day-to-day lives. Integration…
So, having said that, if you have found this page, I chose the tongue-in-cheek title Bells, Whistles & Bling because this “hidden” page is how I promote one of my by-donation services. This page is not for people wanting to partake in spiritual-trends, nor those who are interested in window-shopping “wohoo”, nor those who are looking for surface-witchy-entertainment.
❋ Who This is For
Anyone willing to work with a guided process,
who understand that there are ways that energy reflects, aligns and “speaks” symbollically (or literally) through the physical world around us,
and who is willing to do the work required to integrate the insights and material that the ceremony reveals.
❋ The Olde Wax Pouring Tradition
Wax-pouring is a Ukrainian healing ritual or ceremony that works with the elementals. Called “vylvaty visk” — to pour forth wax — this ritual is usually performed by grandmother-healers and wyse wombyn, and (traditionally) addressed states of fright, trauma, & anxiety that led to discomfort, general unwellness, illness, misfortune, and other challenges.
❋ Why I Pour Wax
I have been apprenticing with the elementals for many years, and specializing in studying & making oberih (ritual objects) and associated seasonal- and life-rites since I was in my early 40’s. Wax is a very special substance that I have grown great reverence for, both in what it means as part of the oberih traditions, as well as in vylyvaty visk. These practices are part of how I connect across the realms and communicate with Greater Spirit.
