How I adore The Bard...He was beyond Time...

We had a good first Core rehearsal for Season 4 last night... brought some new chicas into the Core...it was chaos and order , visceral and raw....hopefully getting us off on the strongest footing in learning some new music that is a step up in complexity.

I am very excited for that potential....it means growth in so many ways for many of the wyld womyn

I am always in awe of how so many of them are willing to risk and take on things that scare them...like reading music, or learning by aural process.

so..yay them...and looking forward to more work to be done.

Jera: Change & Transformation...Season 4 has launched!

Hello hello!

The Idisi are excited to have launched their first rehearsal of the Season 4 last night ...can it really be 4 years already?

wow..

We happily inducted several new wyld womyn into the circle and sadly, but happily blessed the parting of a handful of womyn who are off on other adventures.

This renewal in the time of the Bone Mother...it is always bittersweet for me in The Idisi process..why you ask?

 I am a person who is invigorated by Fall..it is a time of beginnings for me and my cycle..even tho the nature of the season is about coming to endings and rest...but then..Life is an ever evolving/revolving circle so...it can be perceived subjectively..lol!

When Goddess called me to this vision...I had birthed, or co- birthed many a musical venture in the 20+ years as a professional musician. There is a formula no matter the genre of musical style that is pretty constant...

Not so in Idisi Land..lol...it is quite the NON norm.....so each season's beginning is a surprise, and I have to engage heavily in the Act of Detachment in regards to assumed outcomes. Womyn come and go as the Universe moves them, such is the nature of the work we do...and it is all good.

So blessings to those we part ways with, thank you for your gifts as you traveled with us, and welcome to the chicas who join the circle and take up the mantle of becoming an Idisi.

I look forward to sharing all the good with you and those who would be open to our work.
