Elen of the Ways – the return of the hunter-gatherer

Posted by on May 2, 2014 in Book reviews, Spiritual living | Comments Off on Elen of the Ways – the return of the hunter-gatherer

I love synchronicity, and it’s often been mentioned in previous articles I’ve written. The more you open to it, the more and magically it occurs and I always welcome the universe’s message. In recent weeks, it’s been the presence of deer that has caught my attention. I love the woodlands, and so we often choose to camp where the trees are plentiful, but in all my life I’ve never seen so many!The first appearance branded on my memory was in Devon, when out for a morning walk we saw a whole herd of fallow deer...

The canine art of joy

Posted by on Apr 18, 2014 in Spiritual living | Comments Off on The canine art of joy

The joy of tennis balls While we’ve been travelling, my dog Finn has naturally developed his own magical interchange and relationship with the places we visit. His particular connection seems to involve tennis balls, which are one of his great passions. Bear with me…… What has been happening over the months is that he keeps finding tennis balls wherever we go. They stay with us for a few days, get played with rapturously and transported to new pastures with us, and then he loses them again. It’s as if we’re only...

The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Aeon

Posted by on Mar 27, 2014 in Tarot | Comments Off on The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Aeon

Continuing my journey through the spiritual development meaning of Tarot cards, specifically the major arcana of the Thoth deck, we reach number 20….. The Aeon Tarot card With the Sun, you reached a point of being able to express every aspect of your soul. The next step is to go further, and to align with spirit consciousness. When you reach the Aeon, you’re really ready to step outside of time and space and tap into the realms of divine knowing. You’re able to see everything through Spirit’s eyes and every event as...

Standing in your power

Posted by on Mar 20, 2014 in Spiritual living | Comments Off on Standing in your power

My spiritual journey has taken me into many disciplines and paths, but essentially I believe the underlying message in all of them is the same, and very simple. We and every other living thing in the universe are part of each other and God/Goddess, and to fully embrace this understanding we must embody three qualities in particular – love, wisdom and power. For women, this is illustrated beautifully in the image of the three-aspected goddesses that are present in all world cultures. I resonate particularly with Brighid, the Celtic...

The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Sun

Posted by on Feb 24, 2014 in Tarot | Comments Off on The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Sun

Continuing my journey through the spiritual development meaning of Tarot cards, specifically the major arcana of the Thoth deck, we reach number 19….. The Sun Tarot card After the dream-like and mysterious moonlight, the sun shines bright and clear. You have passed an important test and new-found courage brings with it the freedom to express joyfully every aspect of the soul without fear. As a being of light you’re blazing strongly now in your own right from your inner source, not just as a reflector, and you’ll draw to you...

Channelled Faerie Songs

Posted by on Feb 6, 2014 in Spiritual living | Comments Off on Channelled Faerie Songs

I’ve been singing channelled faerie songs for a few months now, so I thought it might be useful to give an introduction to this unusual aspect of my work. For the last couple of years I’ve been drawn to spend more and more time on the land. This has led to me offering sacred site transmissions as an offshoot of my current personal pilgrimage to sacred sites of the UK and Europe. When I started to work intentionally at sacred sites, I found I could hear tunes playing in my mind as I walked on the land. At first I would hum them...

The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Moon

Posted by on Jan 23, 2014 in Tarot | Comments Off on The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Moon

Continuing my journey through the spiritual development meaning of Tarot cards, specifically the major arcana of the Thoth deck, we reach number 18….. The Moon Tarot card The brightest light of the preceding Star casts the darkest shadow, and it’s into the shadows we must venture when we get to the Moon card. But a shadow is merely the absence of light, it indicates that something is preventing the light from getting through, and so now it’s time to delve deep into the Underworld where you’re not permitting the light...

Tidal, a poem

Posted by on Jan 9, 2014 in Poetry | Comments Off on Tidal, a poem

I was watching the sea in meditation at Widemouth Bay near Bude, when most of this poem just popped into my head pretty much fully formed. It was almost as if someone else wrote it through me. I then revisited it, years and more experience later, to add the last lines: The waves race to embrace the shore,Stretching themselves out,Pulling themselves thin,Like reaching ghosts.As if they know.As if they knowThat the same desire driving themTo individuate upon the sandWill draw them back inexorablyTo the swallowing sea,The overwhelming ocean.And...

Being the change – reading for 2014

Posted by on Jan 3, 2014 in Spiritual living, Tarot | Comments Off on Being the change – reading for 2014

For this year, one that already feels very special to me, the card that I drew to guide us is The Emperor. Ah, now I can see why because this is the card of Aries, my birth sign, so I’m very at home with its energy! It’s going to be an exciting year, a year of innovation and new ideas, a time of original creation and most of all getting things done. The Emperor is a ruler, and on a world scale I believe this card indicates the tension that will be highlighted between the old and new paradigms; the old based on authoritarian,...

The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Star

Posted by on Dec 23, 2013 in Tarot | Comments Off on The soul journey through the Thoth tarot cards: The Star

Continuing my journey through the spiritual development meaning of Tarot cards, specifically the major arcana of the Thoth deck, we reach number 17….. The Star Tarot card Most people see this as the “best” spiritual card, and it is very beautiful. After the crisis of the Tower comes the healing balm and influx of the highest light, only made possible by the preceding disintegration. The cracks are how the light gets in. So at this point you’re able to hold more light in your energy bodies, you’re more aligned...
