Blood of Life Song with Kaitlin at Earthaven Ecovillage

(Transcript from video)

Kaitlin:

I give away my blood of life to all my relations and I open my womb with delight.

I give away my blood of life to all my relations and I open my womb with delight.

I give away, give away, give away, give away I open my womb with delight.

I give away my blood of life to all my relations and I open my womb with delight.

I give away my blood of life to all my relations and I open my womb with delight.

I give away, give away, give away, give away, give away, I open my womb with delight


That’s a song by Brook Medicine Eagle that I learned from Susan Weed.
