Jewish Plant Traditions for Birth

Description

Learn about the rich array of customs and plant teachings connected with fertility and birth from across the Jewish diaspora. We will explore Jewish folk practices such as birth amulets, plant-based birth ceremonies, and communal care for expecting parents. We also will delve into the Jewish tradition of invoking the power of trees to enhance fertility, and learn about plant preparations associated with fertility and birth in Jewish folk healing traditions - from baking almond cakes to sewing amulets of salt into pockets to burning myrrh, and more. Naomi will lead the class on Jewish herbalism and folk practices, and Sarah will supplement with her knowledge on fertility and birth as a birthkeeper.
