A Mother's Blessing
with
Jen Lighty
Music by Mahina & Kristie
In honor of Mother's Day, storyteller Jen Lighty will share the Russian folk tale, Vasilisa the Fair, and invite all who gather to contemplate their relationship to mothers, however that arises for them in response to the story.
Jen offers these old stories with reverence for the indigenous wisdom they carry, transporting us back through time to the mythic realm where humans could hear and converse with plants, animals, and elementals.
She aims to inspire those of European descent who hear them to reclaim their lost indigenous roots by creating spaces within and without to ground the wisdom they carry in their modern lives, and to encourage people to connect with the land wherever they are in order to plant their souls in storied ground.
Jennifer Lighty is a word dervish—a storyteller, writer, and mentor whose work is a vessel for grounding the mythic dimension in modern life. She is a conduit for helping others rebuild the bridge between imagination, intuition, and logic in order to operate from a sacred and holistic perspective that is in service to all life.
She first came to the Big Island in 1994, and lived in Waipi'o Valley. Parts of that story are revealed in her mythopoetic memoir, Piko: A Return to the Dreaming (Whale Road Press), which she began in 2021, while living in Honaunau living close to the Pu’uhonua, the setting for the 21-day ceremony recounted in the book. She has been living in Honaunau, and now Kealakekua, for the past five years, where she has been hosting Myth Medicine journeys combining storytelling and art. Her latest offering, is The Coracle, an online mythic rites of passage mentorship carried on folktales and Mū Hawaiian magic.
She has been nominated for the Pushcart Prize and Best New American Poets, and writes The Corpus Callosum Chronicles, a Substack newsletter where she shows how myth and story can heal the divided brain hemispheres by rebuilding the the bridge between imagination and logic in order to facilitate a transformation in consciousness that will return humanity to a holistic perspective grounded in tolerance, peace, and wonder.
