Path of Needles, Path of Pins Rewilded
The Path of Needles, The Path of Pins
A Storytelling + Writing Ritual with Stasha Ginsburg
✴︎ Description:
Before Red wore a hood and met the wolf in the woods,
there was a stranger, older tale—
darker, sharper, more cunning.In this wild twin to the well-known fairytale,
The Grandmother’s Tale (an old French version of Red Riding Hood),
a young girl is asked to choose:
the path of pins or the path of needles.This story doesn’t behave.
It slips sideways.
It reveals the edges of girlhood, hunger, shadow, and instinct.Join me for a 90-minute online story ritual where I’ll tell the rewilded tale.
Then we’ll enter the story together—
using guided writing prompts to explore how its images, choices, and hidden questions
live inside your own mythic memory and personal life story.
✴︎ You’ll Experience:
A live oral telling of The Path of Needles, The Path of Pins
Mythic reflection and symbolism of the tale
2–3 evocative writing prompts
Time to write + share (if desired)
A taste of what it means to braid the mythic with the personal
