The Birth of the Stag Drum
Drum, Power Objects

Summer 2017 saw me in Formby  for an event organised by my wife M. It was hosted by Heron Drums and run by Jonathan Weakes. Its purpose? It was a whole day course on making a sacred drum from animal hide and wood. My choice was to use stag hide, and the hoop was of … Read More “The Birth of the Stag Drum” »

Druids visiting churches? Well, it’s more a case of visiting a site which contains something interesting. In this case M and I were at the end of our Winter Solstice day. As the light began to fade we headed to our final destination – St Tysilio & St Mary church in Meifod, The attraction? A … Read More “Winter Solstice 2016 p4 – The Mad Sculptor of Meifod” »

I cannot now tell you what prompted me to choose this destination. I think I was looking for a dolmen that I had not been to before, and which was within 2 hours drive of home. I think I narrowed the search down to the county of Powys in Wales, but as this is a … Read More “The Wye Connection 2016” »

Crosses for the Bride
Belief Systems, Power Objects, Ritual, Saints, Trees

In preparation for Imbolc I wanted to construct something similar to what I had seen at other sacred sites related to the goddess Brigid – a wooden cross. I decided to make two crosses – one for me and one for my friend Julia, who would be accompanying me for my Imbolc outing. My concept was … Read More “Crosses for the Bride” »

We were early, by a long chalk. Having rested and supped for the evening we had set out to continue our pilgrimage within the Vale of Kilmartin. Our goal was the sacred site known as the Moon Temple.

I noticed today that I check the energies (and do some work if needed) more often than I clean my rooms. Not that my abode isn’t clean, you understand. Anyway, I was up bright and earlier than normal and had one of them urges to check the energies of my rooms. I grabbed the rods and … Read More “Power object created” »

I was at the rather fabulous Om Yoga event the other week ostensibly as a Hug Ambassador but also to take in the energy and atmosphere of the place.
