The wisdom of our ancestors is beating in our hearts.
​
My ancestors and the ancient deities they revered speak through my life. Goddesses of the heavens, earth, and water, the darkness, the light, the ever-flowing cyclical rhythm of life and death, that is never and will never be linear;
they are in the plants, the animals, the air and
in every one of us. We are all connected in energy.
​
The darkness wants to be heard.
It's beckoning us to walk it into the light.​
​
The plants are spiritual beings and guides along our journey. Their medicine is with you even when you're not amongst them, even when you're not taking them in.
I try to channel the spirit and intention of the plants i'm called to work with for the healing of my community, spiritually/physically, to assist in the evolution of consciousness we are all experiencing.
My central goddess is Anahid. She's spoken to me through dreams and messages and she wants to be known once again.
In researching the Indigenous, pagan wisdom held by my ancestors, mainly Armenian, Scottish and Italian, she has come through to me the loudest; who was in fact the central goddess of the Armenian people before 301. She was so adored and beloved, that they just could not give her up, and she slowly transformed from goddess to bird in statues and salt keeps within the home.
She is of the moon and the water, a protector, loving and fierce. She is Anahita, Diana, Artemis, Anahata
...the heart.
my name is kristin kellas belk.
I am a community herbalist, residing on unceded Wabanaki Territory aka Warren, Maine.
I live near what is known today as the St. George river, on land that we are working hard to heal.
The woods are still shaken by the quarrying that once took place here. There is a beautiful pond leftover from that time, through which water flows to the river and out to the sea.
We harvest some of our medicine sustainably from this forest and we're experimenting with permaculture to help heal the soil here and create medicinal gardens.
We believe in supporting organic & sustainable growers,
not only for the health of those who use our goods,
but also for the health of the earth, air and water
where these plants are grown.
