Hi, I'm Dakota.
I've been walking this path since 1992, teaching, journeying, and making the kind of medicine that meets you exactly where you are. Sound journeys, ritual work, and a wheel with room for every direction you're standing in right now.

The Wheel of Your WILD Becoming
Come alive to the life you're living.
You scheduled over the wonder. It's still down there, under the calendar.
One full turn of the Celtic year, October to October. Four arcs, nine weeks each, and work you do outside on whatever ground you're standing on. Asphalt counts.
By next October you'll walk onto ordinary ground and feel it answer. You'll trust what you hear the first time. You'll make noise you weren't raised to make. And you'll have a year of proof, made with your own hands, that none of it was imagined.
Doors open in
The full year is sold for seven days, once a year, starting Saturday, October 17. The list hears first and gets in first.

She's the old one, the winter hag who carries the year in her two hands and knows exactly when to let it go. You'll meet her at whatever threshold you're already standing at. She won't ask you to explain it.
The Wheel turns through 4 seasonal arcs. Each one holds its own weather, its own kind of dark, its own return. You don't have to walk the whole year to begin, join for a single arc, or walk the full turning, whichever door is open to you right now.
This is the deepest work I teach. Ritual. Sisterhood. The slow work of coming back to yourself, one season at a time.

Fresh from the fire, ready when you are.
What this work sounds like
I haven’t watched the video yet but I just wanted to let you know that I am so happy to see this. I haven’t seen you around for a long time, but I truly appreciate your teachings. You were the first person that I learnt about the Medicine wheel from 6-7 years ago. I value them so much. So much love and blessings.
Such a powerful meditation. Dakota is special. Grateful for all her content here. A exquisite combination of straight speak with the wisdom of the ancient spiritual world.
Had my soul going from beginning to end. Feel ALIVE
