NELL BROOKER-CELEBRANT

Baby & Child Naming - blessing the new life and a formal welcome into the family. This rite can creating a sense of belonging for adoption or other reasons. Four 'Elemental Guardians' can be chosen from family or friends who can promise to support the child in relation to their element.

 

Adult Naming - marking a name change by deed poll, spiritual identity or reclaiming an ancestral name.

 

Gender & Sexuality Affirming - celebrating and being honoured in your true identity and hearing your name spoken aloud is a supportive and powerful rite of passage.
 

Celebration of Self - our relationships start with self-Love and there is power in committing to oneself.

 

Unbinding - when a relationship ends it can help our progress to ‘cut the ties that bind’. This doesn’t necessarily mean that our loved one has to leave our lives, but that energetic cords are dissolved which might otherwise hold us back. When we take responsibility for how we close our relationship we can ‘consciously uncouple’ - a positive act of respect and gratitude. The ritual is crafted to suit your wishes - you may want to make a commitment to yourself and receive a healing word and sound bath or to let go in a fire ceremony. The tie cutting process can be part of a ceremony for stepping into our new life in celebration of our next chapter.

​

Coming of Age & Eldering - we have lost our ancient rites of marking significant ages which some other cultures still observe. Whether a child becoming an adult or a person moving into their ‘croning’ years, these are powerful gateways in life which can be supported through ceremony.
