Clark Strand: Now Is the Hour of Her Return

This is a conversation unlike any other on Praying at the Speed of Love. Because the conversation isn’t really with Clark Strand. It’s with Ma Kali herself. And She’s quite the conversationalist! In the gentle hands of her boy, Clark Strand, we meander through some deep and even dark prophetic territory, hearing Kali speak in Her own voice and seeing Her in both her terror and beauty.

The Burning Times ended; the wounds did not

As I researched the 13 witches for The Return of the Witches pilgrimage, I started learning about the witches in Scotland and sensed deep in my body that Scotland had an essential place in the pilgrimage. I began to read about the Burning Times in Scotland and stumbled upon an organization called Witches of Scotland which is seeking an apology, pardon, and memorial for everyone persecuted as a witch. One of the founders introduced me to Sheila Gaul of RAWS, Remembering Accused Witches of Scotland. When I told Sheila about the pilgrimage, she told me to stop what I was doing and contact Cali White in England immediately.

And OH was she right! Cali has done the work: explored the history, found the wounds, led women’s healing circles across the UK and Ireland, and created the Silver Spoons Collective to honor women murdered as witches. In this powerful healing conversation, Cali shares:

how the collective unconscious from the Burning Times emerged in her body
why she was obsessed with the Standing Rock community in South Dakota
what happened at Stonehenge when a voice said, “You have your own ancestors.”
what she discovered in her 13 cycle Full Moon ceremony pilgrimage
how the vestiges of fear, grief, sadness, rage, and terror still show up hundreds of years later
the interconnection between colonialization, Burning Times, and the Land
how the Burning Times shattered our natural feminine sisterhood
how to find and heal the witch wounds in your body
