A LIVE Story Council: The Handless Maiden
Healing the Wounded Wild
Let’s gather in the silvain woods of an old fairy tale to find what medicine might await us there!
A Story Council with The Handless Maiden, Healing the Wounded Wild
LIVE, in Vancouver, Sept 20th, 6:30-9:30pm, we still have spots!
The Handless Maiden, sometimes called “Silver Hands” (a European fairy tale related to “The Armless Maiden,” “The Girl With No Hands,” and similar stories found in cultures all around the world) is a story of dismembering and re–membering, of calamity, loss, and healing.
Fairy and Folk tales are said to carry clues, like stones laid out in a path, to help us find our way in troubled times. Story Council is a way to tune into the medicine hidden in this imaginal realm.
They say the gift is found behind the wound...and stories, like dreams can help us make sense of our losses and pains. Furthermore, “We’re not meant to remain in the circle of enchantment deep in the fairy tale forest — we’re meant to come back out again, bringing our hard-won knowledge and fortune with us...in service to the family (old or new), the realm, the community; to children and the future.” Terri Windling
Join us on this journey into and back out of the story woods!
