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” »

Lammas is a bitter sweet time for me now. I remember well last year’s visit to Kilmartin in Scotland. This was the last proper outing that Kal and I had together. This celebration is therefore tinged with a knowing that it not only marks the end of the Summer, but it also is a reminder … Read More “Lammas 2016 – Druid’s Circle and The Ring of Kinship” »

In the second (and slightly shorter) of the Beltane stories I am following a different ‘ripple’ from the initial ‘splash’ that was recounted previously. In this second part I am concentrating on the nature of a new quest that will run from Beltane to Summer Solstice. I already knew that the previous quest – Become The Giant … Read More “Beltane 2015 p2 – The Heart of the Merlin Staff” »

This tale occurs just before my quest to “Kill Gwas” – something which I have almost fulfilled. I was invited to go to the Llangernyw Yew in the middle of August. Kal needed some urgent answers about his future direction, and I am always looking to go out and meet ancient yew trees. We always seem … Read More “St Digain’s Church 2014 – The Portal Prison” »

Death Eating, Hedge Druidry

This post is out of sync with the other posts. It should have been posted before Imbolc, but our experiences on that day took precedence. So, here it is at the start of March, over a month since it happened! Hey – that’s the way it goes. Sometimes we don’t have enough stuff to post, … Read More “Death Eating at Llangernyw” »

Finally I have got around to writing up my Samhain 2012 experiences. It’s only the back end of November, and this occurred at the beginning of October! One aspect of this year’s work has been the incredible amount of material we have had to deal with. Only a fraction of it appears on this blog. … Read More “Samhain 2012 – The Hawk and The Dove” »

Oh blimey! We’re so far behind with our posts. Here’s one from the early part of June that I’ve just got around to.
