"Through living waters, she will live." I wracked my brains to think of a song for a mikvah ritual for a close friend. There are none. So I came up with this in the car-ride.
inspired Jewish music
We play acoustic folk, rock and Jewish spiritual music.
Story behind the song
People often associate the mikvah with death, in that, for women, it is the way to purify oneself after one's period, which is seen as potential life gone unfulfilled. A friend of mine marked the end of her fertility- menopause- with a beautiful mikvah ritual for which I was to provide the music. I simply could not think of a single appropriate song. Hence this one that I wrote.
