We are very excited to invite you to another Earth Listening through Storytelling event. Join us as Anja Byg guides us on a journey of listening to the Earth by exploring the myths and stories passed on through our ancestors. This month, Anja will guide our journey into the story of “The woman who became a fox”, an Aleutian tale about finding your destiny even when it doesn’t look like what you were expecting.

Anja Byg invites us to another storytelling event for Earth Listeners Saturday, February 24th, at 7pm UTC. See the time in your zone here https://everytimezone.com/s/07535892. She will tell the story of “King Valemon the Bear”, a story about a woman who sets out to marry the wild.
This is in addition to the regularly scheduled weekly Earth Listening on Friday, which will also be held as usual this Friday. Those of you who were able to attend last month's storytelling know how enjoyable and rich it was.
More details on this month's event
Listening to the Earth can take many different forms, from meditations, sit spots, medicine walks and nature initiation to day- and night-time dreaming. Another way in which the Earth speaks to us, if we are willing to listen, is in the form of myths; those old stories and images that our ancestors heard and saw in the whisper of the wind and the crackling of the hearth fire.
In these monthly sessions, we will allow myths to speak to us again to listen to what they can tell us about the earth and our own place in the wider community of human and more-than-human kin.The sessions will last around 90 minutes. We will start with a brief check-in, followed by the telling of a myth, and wrap up with sharing the images from the story that spoke to us. The sessions and stories are hosted by Anja Byg.
Sessions will take place once a month, usually on the first Saturday of the month.
