In the modern time, people don’t ask the guardians and spirits of the land for their blessings to build homes and other structures. Blessings and offerings aren’t made to the land when people come to live upon it. At best, these leaves us disconnected from the magic and protection of the land guardians. At worst, we live on land that is actively annoyed with the presence of people.

 

Happily, these kind of relationships can usually be improved and repaired. Learn about how you can come into right relationship with your land guardian and sustain and nurture that flow. For our ancestors, being in right relationship and grace with the land was one of their deepest and most central concerns. While the gifts of the modern era lessen our vulnerability in the natural world, I would argue that the health and well-being of our soul is still deeply affected by right relationship to the land we live upon.
