She kneels beneath the hush of the forest, her spine a living vine—ivy threading down her back like a whispered psalm. In this sacred dusk, she communes with something older than language. Flowers bloom with an inner glow, their golden light pulsing in rhythm with her breath, as if drawn forth by her presence alone.

Her skin is dappled with soil and spellwork, etched by time and tenderness. Moths hover like forgotten prayers, stirred by the heat of remembrance. Before her, a veiled altar waits—not demanding, but inviting. What she offers is not sacrifice, but selfhood. What she touches does not burn, but blossoms.

This is not a scene of worship—it is a scene of becoming.

“Ritual Bloom: Communion” honors the quiet rituals of reclamation, the feminine body as both altar and offering, and the magic that unfolds when we return to the earth and say: I am still here. I am still holy.
