I am a Mother
31 card set and A3 instructions in a calico bag. These altar cards are a shamanic tool to help remind us that in nature all things change. The cards include the Earth’s seasons and sabbats, our life seasons, the lunar phases, and the menstrual cycle.
An educational and interactive children’s book teaching the wisdom of the cycles. Ways to flow with the Lunar Cycle and a glimpse at a woman’s cycle remind us of the ancient wisdom teachings from the Earth’s Song of Life.
A unique guide to pregnancy and birth. Written by a homebirth midwife, mother and grandmother, Jane Hardwicke Collings. This book gives the power back to the woman to be the centre of her birthing universe, returning to her the keys to the long locked gates of the realm of feminine strength and the spiritual essence of birth.
Learn to chart your cycle, become aware of the daily changing influence of the moon phases (the lunation cycle) and the effects of the Earth’s season and where you are in your life seasons. Charting your cycle can reveal so much to you about yourself. You will come to know the patterns in your energy levels, creativity, libido, and moods.
The Spinning Wheels is a wealth of information in one handy card that tells you the characteristics of each phase of each cycle – Earth season, life season, moon phases and menstrual cycle. On any particular day you can be aware of all the energies that are effecting you and you are more likely to understand the way you feel. This information enables women to be familiar with the complex interplay of the cycles that influence their every moment.
Becoming – a Woman, is a booklet written by Jane Hardwicke Collings for girls and their parents who are looking for some easy to understand information about the menstrual cycle.
The Connecting with your Power Animal e-course will take you on a journey into the Shamanic Lower Realm to meet your Power Animal.
Included is a welcome video from Jane, an introduction to the basics of Shamanism, touching on the history, the cosmology, and a guide to Shamanic Journeying. You will learn how to discover your ‘Access Sense’ and what to do if you encounter blocks on a journey. There is an audio drum journey with Jane guiding you in, drumming and guiding you back. And information on how to honour your Power Animal, how and when to invoke your Power Animal and an introduction to Sacred Craft. Also included is a ‘how to’ bring this to children and suggested further reading and resources.
You will be taken to the appletreehouse.com shop to purchase the ecourse.

“Moonsong” was the first workshop I attended with Jane. It was a life changing experience: sitting in a circle of women, surrounded by the many faces of the Goddess, listening to the beautiful truth of feminine mysteries was like facing my real nature, re-membering who I was and the ancestral bloodline I belong to. My life was never the same after attending Moonsong: this new woman emerged from underneath my skin and she led me through two amazing births and towards the mother I am today. It was clearly all part of the path. I only wish all women in the world could enjoy Moonsong and Jane’s wisdom.
This workshop focuses on the shamanic dimensions of pregnancy, in other words: what lies beneath…
With prior preparation, contemplating our life experiences, we will do some shamanic processes to understand the origins of our beliefs, attitudes and fears around birth, seeing the connection between how we were born, our menarche (first period) and the stories about the women in our family, as well as any experiences of pregnancy and giving birth we have had so far.
Then a ‘Letting Go of Fear’ process and fire ritual and a shamanic drum journey to meet the baby, soul baby or Inner Goddess, to seek guidance, clarity, information etc.
As Jane says, what happens in the circle stays in the circle, so it is hard to talk in specifics about what it was that I personally got out of this workshop. Let me just say in a general way that fans of Ten Moons will love this one-day workshop. It is a great way to reconnect with the book’s message: that the births you mother into this world are profoundly shaped by the way you were birthed, and it is up to you to know that story, work with it, and change it where it is no longer working for you. More than just an intellectual message, this workshop offers transformative activities – such as fire and drumming rituals – that allow you to let go of fears and connect with your baby and birthing powers. This is a fantastic experience for women who are expecting, planning a pregnancy or working through past births. And it is not just for birthing mothers: this is a powerful experience for any woman interested in reconnecting with the feminine experience of creativity. Jane’s blend of personal experience, years of activity in natural birth and woman craft, and shamanic perspectives makes her teaching truly unique.
After Mother, before Crone… is the time of the Maga – the Matriarch, the Enchantress, the Harvest Queen…
How do we harvest the richness of our lives in our Autumn life season?
We will explore the treasures of this season – the harvest, the joys and the responsibilities.
We will join together to reclaim this time in our lives for the gift it is for all our relations.
Peri-menopause for me has been a major life changing process through my 40’s. Jane’s Autumn Woman Harvest Queen workshop was a wonderful opportunity to dive deep into my own personal healing and to feel the support from the sharing with other women who are also in this powerful transition.
I love Jane’s grounded and knowledgable facilitation, her beautiful humour, and the deep holding and honouring she provides. I highly recommend all woman attend these workshops so as to heal past traumas and to step into her true power into menopause and beyond.
