Old Blood

Old Blood

Harnessing the power of our menstruation is our birthright, yet as a society we have lost this connection to this monthly rebirth cycle. In this "Red Tent" episode, Katherine and Melissa touch on the history of our blood mysteries and explore how our very nature has been stifled.

What would it mean to you to be held and celebrated for life codes within your womb? How can we come back into reverence for our bleed time?

Tune in as we explore:

  • The power of connecting with the history of menstruation
  • Why its important to transmute the shame we hold around our bleed time as modern women
  • The Yoni Code that is uncovered through this powerful conversation

This is our second episode of our Red Tent series. Tune into Episode 5, "The Blood of the Maiden" for an exploration of menarche.
