THE FIFTH GATE
Coming home to yourself, through the five elements, at your own pace.
The gates open on the Gemini full moon, 25 November
This was my journey home to myself
For over twenty years I've had the privilege of sitting beside women in very intimate settings, listening to their stories as they move through some of life's greatest challenges.
My work is the space of intimacy, into me I see.
And in that space, the thing I witness most is how rarely women take time for themselves. They don't carve out the space to be quiet and listen, or to connect with Mother Nature and the spirit that lives within them, their own quintessence.
So I created this as a space just for you, somewhere to journey inwards and ask yourself some really interesting questions.
Five gates. Five elements.
The space between the notes creates the music.
Each element holds a different medicine. Stay with each one for at least a week, and longer if she is still speaking to you.
Earth
Where we learn to belong
Water
Where we learn to feel
Air
Where we learn to see clearly
Fire
Where we learn to become
Ether
The fifth gate, where we remember
Which element is asking for my attention?
The one question you carry through every gate, and home again.
I began to simplify my healing
Why the elements
In understanding my connection to myself through nature, I began to witness the elements of earth, water, fire, air and ether. At different times I could connect with one, or one would be out of balance for me. So I started to simplify my healing by connecting with each element, and asking which one I needed to work with to support what I was moving through.
I now have a respect and a love for myself that I never had. I give myself compassion and kindness, and I'm gentle with myself, just as I would be with a complete stranger. And it came from creating space for me.
Now I want to share that space with you.
Inside The Fifth Gate
What's waiting for you
Insights and journeys in my voice
For every gate, audio recordings of my personal insights into that element, and meditative journeys where you receive a symbol from each element to carry home.
Call Yourself Home
The journey you hear as you begin, and again at the very end, when you know the way.
Your Book of Illumination
A printable journal with every question By the Fire, space to write, a place to draw each symbol, and your own medicine cabinet, where you gather the things that support you in your healing and on your journey, so they're there when you need them.
Walks, rituals and your altar
Simple ways to meet each element on your own land, in the shower, by the fire, under the stars, with an altar that grows as you walk.
An oil companion for each gate
Vetiver, Copaiba, Eucalyptus, Ginger and Cinnamon, and Frankincense, with a simple alternative if you don't have them.
My playlists
The music I walk with for each element, for your walks, your altar and the days in between.
This isn't something you speed through in a weekend
Go slowly
There's a lot of treasure here, if you take the time to be with it. Go to the waterway that most calls to you. Sit by fire in the way that really connects you. Feel the breeze and notice how your visions come. And ask yourself whether Spirit is outside of you, or the spirit within you.
Have a little look first to satisfy your curiosity. Then come back to the beginning, and walk slowly and gently through each one.
When you say yes, I'll be there
You won't walk it alone
You'll receive a personal welcome from me the moment you begin, and I'll check in along the way to see how you're going.
And if something opens that you'd like someone to sit beside you while you speak it out, you can come and have a session with me, whenever you feel ready.
What it's like to walk with me
Kind words from women who have sat with me in sessions, mentoring and retreats
"Working with Tracey is like going on an Easter Egg hunt at night in a magical forest with your best friend."
Miyuki
"Tracey, thank you, you have ignited a fire in me that I thought had burnt out long ago."
Rachel
"Every time I go, I recover a part of myself I didn't even know I was searching for."
Barbara
"I am starting to love myself and put me first, which I have never done."
Sara
"I am witnessing myself, and get it now and it's SO beautiful."
Steph
"Her presence is pure soul embodiment, so deeply loving, wise and activating."

Gentle questions
How long does it take?
At least a week for each gate, so five weeks or more. There's no finish line. Stay with an element for as long as she's still speaking to you.
Do I need essential oils, or my own land?
No. Every oil has a simple alternative, and every element can be met wherever you are: in the shower, with a candle, at an open window, under the stars.
What if something big comes up?
Some gates can stir old memories and strong feelings, so the journey asks you to go gently. If something feels too big to hold alone, please reach out to a qualified therapist or counsellor. And if you'd like someone to sit beside you, you can come and have a session with me.
Can I come back to it?
Yes. Once you've walked the gates, you can return to any element whenever you need to, and ask again which one is asking for your attention.
