Dream work; a poem

Dream work; a poem by Semele Xerri

This poem plays on the idea of dream work as a vocational profession, and the fact that as souls unlimited by time and space we also carry out real and valuable work in dreamtime – literal dream work. For me, both dreams turned out also to be prophetic. The first told me about my calling to spirit release and the second to being a way-shower, empowering others in navigating challenges and creating a more beautiful life and world for themselves and others.

Spiritual guidance for July/August 2023

Here’s my spiritual guidance for July/August 2023, covering the month beginning with the Cancer new moon at 7.32pm on July 17th (in the UK).

Spiritual guidance for July/August 2023 from the Tarot

The element of earth is still very much uppermost this month as the Tarot moves us upwards through the suit to work with the Five of Disks, subtitled Worry. There’s no avoiding it, there are going to be disturbances over the next four weeks in those areas on which you usually depend for your sense of security and stability.

Ariadne’s thread: Negotiating life’s labyrinth

Posted on Jul 6, 2023 in Spiritual living, Uncategorized

Ariadne's thread
Ariadne by Edward Burne-Jones

I’ve loved Greek myth from childhood, but as I’ve embedded myself more in the landscape of my chosen homeland Wales, Celtic myth has taken first place in my heart. Recently, however, the story of Ariadne’s thread began clamouring for my attention. I’d been drawn to the novel about her by Jennifer Saint when it was first published, and just didn’t get round to it. So when I spotted it in my local phone box library I picked it up eagerly, aware that it had found me at the perfect time.

Spiritual guidance for June/July 2023

The element of earth comes to the fore for your focus this month with the Two of Disks; it’s all about your physical resources and how you choose to use them for manifesting the reality you want to experience. The number two suggests you’re in or will be in the early stages of new approaches and methods to managing resources and manifesting with them, as is suggested by the subtitle on the card; “Change”.

Yes, there’s that word again! It can cause fear to rear up in the face of uncertainty and insecurity as what is known and familiar begins to shift and destabilise all around you.

The call of Ceridwen; a poem

Posted on Jun 7, 2023 in Poetry, Spiritual living, Uncategorized

The call of Ceridwen - womb tomb of Pentre y Fan

Recently I spent a wonderful weekend with a group of women storytellers in West Wales, following the call of Ceridwen and her story embedded in the landscape. She’s linked with other areas of Wales too. This poem began to form after an experience at Pentre y Fan (known by some as Ceridwen’s womb tomb) that weekend. I scribbled the bare bones of it in my notebook while sitting on the rocks in Ceibwr Bay, having just returned from The Witch’s Cauldron on the nearby coast.
