This Offering was inspired by the Winter Solstice which is a celebration of the longest night or the rebirth of the Sun on Dec 21st. This time of year holds the power of rebirth, regeneration, and is a great time for self reflection and self care. In Pagan times the Winter Solstice was referred to as Yule and was a celebration of the Goddess Moon energy. I'm using the Wheel of the Year as a jumping off point for each offering to honor and deepen our relationship with the seasonal cycles in the Northern hemisphere. Each offering will be available for 2-3 weeks and then will end in time for me to make and ship your garment so that it arrives before that Sabbath. I'm so excited to share a more in depth journey into my life's work as an herbalist, clothing designer, yogini, and environmentalist. It is my hope that through these offering we will connect more deeply with Gaia together.

The Garment Design: The garment design for this offering is the Poncho and is made from our Stone Washed Silk. A perfect design for layering this multi functional piece can be worn as a cape, scarf, dress layer, and shawl. This versatile Free Size design and luscious silk fabric make this offering a special treat to oneself or an especially wonderful Gift to another.
