“I read in a book once that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet, but I've never been able to believe it. I don't believe a rose would be as nice if it was called a thistle or a skunk cabbage.”
L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

“…human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them… life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.”
Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera
NAMING CEREMONY ~ REBIRTH
Namegiving ceremonies aren’t exclusively for children. If it’s time for you to change your name to align with your new identity, how about celebrating with a naming ceremony? Whether you’re confirming gender or changing back to your old name after divorce, I can help you design a personalised eco-friendly, heart-centred ceremony that honours your transition.
