It’s Samhain, or Halloween and I’m travelling to Valle Crucis Abbey in Llangollen in the heart of the night. The idea is that I will meet with Cailleach and Duignan to take advantage of the thin veil between the Middle Earth and The Underworld. If you need a “catch up” on these two “personalities” then … Read More “Samhain 2016 – Valle Crucis and The Thin Veil” »

It was approaching mid-day when … Read More “Learning more about “the dress”” »

This last aspect is … Read More “Samhain 2013 p1 – Tinkinswood and The Blood Ring” »
