This week I was honoured to hold sacred space for Karen with a truly beautiful memorial ceremony 🌿✨
Held at 🪷 Lotus Pavilion, Macquarie Park — a serene outdoor space surrounded by the beauty of nature — it was the perfect setting to reflect her deep connection to the earth.
In keeping with her love of nature, we gently wove pagan ritual throughout the service, creating a space that felt peaceful, grounded, and deeply sacred. Her altar was adorned with all her favourite things — each piece telling a story of who she was and what she loved. 🕷️ 🕯️ 💐🪴🦉🍃
Her voice was present through heartfelt readings from her own notebook, a beautiful photo slideshow tribute alongside the music that meant so much to her. 📕 🎥 🎶 💫
And in true Karen style, she didn’t want the day to feel heavy. Her final song request — (when translated to English) “Shake Your Bacon” — brought lightness, smiles, and a sense of joy for her farewell ✨ 🧙🏼♀️✨
Guests were invited to place their herbal offerings for Karen and share a fond goodbye, each step honouring her deep love of nature. Everyone was gifted a lovely keepsake bookmark in honour of Karen’s love of books 📚 🌿
Her final wish… if you see a beautiful, big tree — take a moment, give it a hug, and think of her 🌳💚💜
