Walking the Ancient Path in a Modern World
Throughout this Spring Equinox I had been through Air, Water and Earth elemental experiences. Ancient wisdom and a good deal of expectation suggested that Fire was on the cards. If initiate is the lowest level of induction then what do you call someone just below that?

Since Imbolc 2014 I have been reading up on yew trees. The aim is to assimilate as much knowledge as possible about this incredible species so that when Spring Equinox comes around I will be able to begin the process of understanding my yew staff’s potential powers. At the moment it is merely a piece … Read More “The Yew, the Tree of Life and the Golden Bough” »

Our experience on literally every outing is that the day’s experience and visits will not conform to … Read More “Derwentwater and the Water Element – Spring Equinox 2014 – 2 of 5” »
A really early start to the Spring Equinox of 2014 had us at a sacred site called Castlerigg around 10a.m. It was a fresh and breezy start to the days pilgrimage, but as ever I was hopeful of calling the sun out to play at some point, even as ominous clouds were gathering around us. … Read More “CastleRigg and the Genius Loci – Spring Equinox 2014 – 1 of 5” »
