Ayahuasca
( and ' t r a n s g e n d e r ' ceremonies )
should there be gender segregation in the Santo Daime church?
where do I lie in this? and other 'trans'/non-binary persons?
can I please join an all female ceremony?
a Women's healing ayahuasca retreat ?
IF not... why not? That kind of rejection hurts me to my core.
Lets talk about this please :)

There is a Woodland Realm Portal here....
S ~ the woodland realm portals are unique, as they exist only in the woodlands
of the Uzjlo Lands. ~ they connect via magical travel throughout the forests; Dryads & Slyvan & forestTreeDruids created the portals;
they use natural magic, leaves, light,
life; to portal between dimensions
in the forest-worlds;
the Northern Forests, the fбrlժrռ
forests, theForested swamps, of the outer-lands
the PaganWorld, the enchanted
realms;.....
You are in: ~the night~~forest~~ ~domain ~~
You, came this far.. Hey you. would you mind? talk to me for a minute.this is our sanctuary. Its not quite
what you think. perhaps? This is a Sanctuary. a medical home. a dream-house where we look after the sick. Its better than you think. We let them sleep and feed them here. We are on the edge of the Dark Forest for a reason, you know.
spring is here. the air feels warmer.
This patient... they need some specific plants from the forest...
there is a Temple inthe forest, an old lonely Shrine.
I need you to place a prayer there for me, for them. to please the spirits, in high regard!

Harvest'sseason is among us.
Through the Celestine Gate: -lit up in two colours, yellow & white;
This is the Night-World.
this is Domain of the Night-Mother, and nobody else;
in its deep groves
hence, the mystery seen again;
- for her tilled, to practise her wills -
- This sanctuary is known as 'the BlueStoneCave.'
whilst here you may experience things like a dream,
time and space may converge & confuse.
many, silent forest-sisters may come and go in the night,
~ to tend, to provide,
and to replenish water, medicine,
to pray; fir nirtak health
Adrift... on the Twig-Reef
the Lower-Dream Woods bend & echo
their shrieks upon the Night Winds below...
"Come, little one, we must go"
"We must make Haste to be
above the flower-swamp
by NightFall."
you Hear voices on the wind....
We must keep moving, somebody is on Tail...
The Cold Valley echoes:
Frogs & bird wildlife chime their songs , A Dense Glen beckons ~- . As if life, a shrouded darkness of spirit, this voice of the forest, voice of the imagination. voice of mother Uzlozah!Of the ancient snow;
It is the dark beckoning.
It is the shadow reckoning, reuinited...
. this A, behemoth of the darkness, returned -.
behold it -- as it is here again...
the spirit voice guides you to venture deeper into the misty dark forest.
Here, the Upper forest village of the Night Mother's Domain is
Shacks, huts, treehouses, not much - beyond lies the vastness of the woods, the mysterious beckoning trepid primeval forest of old, a twisted Bark yields ... A fallow backwood. Entepid with Moss.
It is far off.
the seismic Rumbles of the Mountains can be felt. not faroff.
Down in the dark enclosure of a dark Hollows. the Land stirs, in the stench-fog of it's own Night. Tendrils wrap around previously fallen Stones and Logs.
A Lark Cry, of a Loon Strays through the Dusky Evening Mid-Horizon. The fallen forest Rots and swells in it's own Pools of Bog-Ponds. Bracken & Fronds stretch out; covering the Swamp with foliage. the Humid atmosphere pulsates. As the fetid swamp murmurs, groans
The Ever-Cool Night Forest: chicadas chirp throughout the Night.
There is a Jaguar on the prowl.
Better be very cautious, and watch our steps.
There are Primary Trunk Branches to climb along.
Very skilled climbers of skill +17 or more may descend (only) amongst the Foliage >>>>
But to Ascend these tree trunks will need +20 or more climbing skill.
There are strange Crystal Shards here. the mystical fprest ,sparkles;
and is bewildering.
It is still a long way down,
mayhap - - these crystal spires are that of a Wizard's?
... And in this forest hides-away a Howl.
A hollow-tree-stump world.
A Fine Mist clings to the land. Morning seems ever-distant.
Besides the Howl, there is a white-cap faerie ring, of mysterious origin.
A wondera of unusual plants grow in the Deep forest all-around.
the Cave belongs to a solitary Hermit. Who may return.
