Bound By Loss: grief reading circle | October

The Smell of Rain on Dust by Martín Prechtel

Theme: Grief as Ceremony, Grief as Praise
📅 Circle Date: October 16

In October, we’ll gather around a mythic and devotional text: The Smell of Rain on Dust by Martín Prechtel. This book is part prayer, part plea — a call to let grief flow freely as an act of beauty, of praise, of love. Prechtel reminds us that grief is a communal language that modern life has forgotten, and it’s time to remember.

If you’ve been longing for a way to make your grief sacred again, this book may feel like a door creaking open.

🌀 Mini Practice: Make an offering to your grief.
Place something on your altar or outside — a flower, a leaf, a handwritten note. Say to yourself: “This is for what I’ve lost. This is for what shaped me.”
