Soul Retrieval for Sin Eaters
Soul Retrieval for Sin Eaters: updating a powerful Druid ceremony for modern societal concerns In historical times, when oral tradition was valued more than the written observations of conquering empires, Druid shamans worked within multiple Celtic tribes to bring healing, understanding of shared ethics, and community support.

Death, grief, and psychopomp work
A little over a decade ago, I deeply mourned the loss of a psychiatric client on Yule (2013). I worked at a psychiatric facility, and she was assigned to my caseload.
