Naming Ceremonies

In Ancient Celtic cultures, welcoming rituals often acknowledged a child's place within both the family and the natural world, calling upon elemental blessings & the wisdom of ancestors to guide and protect the child’s journey through life.

This heartfelt event centers on your bond

with your child, the hopes, dreams, & intentions you, your loved ones, and your wider circle

hold for their future. It also honors the elements—, air, fire, water & earth

& our deep connection to the natural world that nourishes and surrounds us.
 

You may invite people to become mentors,

guide-parents, or fairy godparents, to make promises of love, guidance, & support.

The ceremony can include joyful, symbolic rituals, simple actions that connect us to nature & create lasting memories for all.

Family Blending Ceremony

This ritual is a celebration of togetherness—

a simple yet powerful way to honour the blending of families, stories, and hearts. As each person adds their unique presence, a shared creation takes form, symbolizing unity in diversity.

 

Rooted in nature, the shifting sands remind us that while we each hold our own colour and shape, we are also deeply connected—to the Earth, and to one another. It’s a gentle, joyful way to mark the beauty of becoming one.

Land Acknowledgement – Unama’ki / Cape Breton

With deep respect and gratitude, Sacred Steps acknowledges that the land on which we live, gather,

and hold ceremony is the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People.

This land, known as Unama’ki, is one of the seven traditional districts of Mi’kma’ki,

the homeland of the Mi’kmaq Nation.

We honour the enduring spirit, culture, and teachings of the Mi’kmaq,

and recognize their sovereignty and sacred relationship to this land, water, and sky.

In all that we do, may we walk gently, listen deeply, and act with reverence—

for the ancestors, for the land, and for the generations to come.
