I would go into the synchronicities that occurred to get me to the station on time to meet up with Chris. But those go without saying these days. Suffice to say that even a seasoned veteran like me was taken by surprise. Up until today the weather had been unsettled. A mix of sun, rain, sleet, … Read More “New beginnings and New things at Dinas Bran” »

Bran the Blessed, Quests

One of the best feelings in the world is the onset of Spring and Summer. Of course the world is awakening, but what is almost as important is that the evenings are getting lighter. Woo Hoo! Because of this and for no other purpose that I could divine. Gwas and I ventured forth to a … Read More “An evening with Bran 2014” »

In the final part of my Winter Solstice story for 2013 I talk about one of my favourite places – Dinas Bran. It’s one of the most beautiful, impressive, magickal and mythical places in my area. Having spent time getting to know its spirit of place – the mighty Bran the Blessed – it has … Read More “Winter Solstice 2013 p2 – The secret of constellation alignment” »

July continued to be sunny, hot and dry. We were back from our Summer Solstice 2013 outing and among the familiar landscapes either side of Cheshire. In particular Kal and I felt drawn to the Dinas Bran site. Both of us had questions that we hoped to find the answers to, and the walk was … Read More “The Initiation of the Yew Staff 2013” »

It was the Spring Equinox, as the title suggests. Contrary to expectation it was freezing cold, and my idea about visiting at least three elevated sacred sites seemed even more foolhardy than it had done when it had first been “suggested” to me through a vision received at Dinas Bran in Llangollen. Would I prove … Read More “Spring Equinox 2013 – Day of the Crow Part 1” »

I love going out in the week. Everyone else is asleep in front of their televisions and our lands becomes the playground of this hedge druid. At least, that’s how it feels. On this rare dry evening I called Kal to come and share the wonders of Dinas Bran. It’s probably our closest amazing place. I … Read More “LLangollen 2013 – Bran, Corvus and taking possession” »
