2012 – Summary of the Year by Gwas
Ancient Sites, Yearly Update

My summary of the year could easily take up several posts, but I’m not going to do that. Instead, I’m going to highlight the many important distinct elements that have taken place this year, and then provide links to the posts that illustrate these elements. On the whole it has been an amazingly packed, dense, active year. … Read More “2012 – Summary of the Year by Gwas” »

Ancient Sites, Forests and Woods, Gwalchmai or Gawain, Hedge Druidry, Visions

At this time of the year I am on a “wind down” to the Winter Solstice. Visits to ancient sites are rare, but when an opportunity arises like the full moon and a free evening, well what can a jobbing hedge druid do but heed the call. Actually, the call was pulling at my feet … Read More “Luds Church 2012 – Moonlight meeting with Gawain” »

As told in part two, the Green Knight who seemed to be laying out the path I should follow had got me to Luds Church and then vanished (no, not in a puff of smoke). So I was left sitting in the near zero temperature outside the steps that led to Luds Church. How was I to prepare … Read More “Imbolc 2012 Part 3 Lud’s church” »

Ancient Sites

The second part of our Imbolc adventure this year took us deep into the borderlands between Staffordshire and Derbyshire. We were back at Lud’s Church near to the village of Gradbach (the village that SatNav forgot). Actually, it was pointed out to me by Mike that the correct pronunciation of the feature is Ludchurch. I … Read More “Merlin and the Green Man – Imbolc 2012 part 2” »

Remote dreaming at Lud’s Church
Ancient Sites, Hedge Druidry, Natural Magick, Spirits

Often Kal and I time our visits to meet the requirements of whether the ‘sacred date’ (of the Celtic Year) comes closest to a Full Moon or a New Moon. One such visit coincided with a New Moon on July 30th. This coincided with the Lammas (or Lughnasagh) Festival. We decided that a visit to … Read More “Remote dreaming at Lud’s Church” »

Back in the day (early Feb 2011) when I was setting out on my Knight’s Quest. I had learned that an interesting and perhaps conclusions part of the quest would take place at Lud’s Church. A place I have yet to visit. I was at a loss as to how to begin this quest and … Read More “Luds Church – Gwas makes a suggestion” »

This is the first of a three-part tale which was introduced in The Three Stars of Fertility.
