Gender Transitioning

 

It is a gift to be able to fully inhabit our physical selves, to feel that our bodies merge with our hearts and our minds. When we become the man or woman we were born to be, that gift is ours. The rituals and blessings here acknowledge the powerful emotions that are part of this journey and remind us of the promise that lies ahead.
