Welcome
Seeking Ceremony has grown into Be Ceremonial. If you've followed a link from seekingceremony.com, you're in exactly the right place ~ and there's so much more waiting for you here.
Where it all began
Seeking Ceremony began many years ago as a passion project, born from a season of my life that held great love and great loss, side by side. I went looking for ways to mark what was happening to me ~ the beginnings and the endings, the joy and the heartbreak ~ and found that the rituals I'd inherited didn't quite fit. So I started seeking. I gathered stories, tried things, and shared what I was learning, one ceremony at a time.
Many of you found me there. You shared your own thresholds, brought ritual into your own homes and families, and reminded me that none of us are meant to walk through life's big moments alone.
That seeking has led me here, to Be Ceremonial ~ a home where anyone can find, create and share meaningful ritual, and a growing community of people who believe life's moments deserve to be marked. Seeking Ceremony isn't ending so much as coming home. I'm so glad you're here.
