I adore Autumn, it's one of my favourite seasons. Of course, I say that every season, I love the turning circle of our year.
Autumn is a time of fruitfulness, of enjoying and collecting the bounty of our labours. It can teach us of delayed gratification ...

'Whatever we hold as our own, we consecrate with our very life. This alone should give us pause before we invite anything or anyone new into our already crowded and hurried lives. How much can we hold? How much can we take in, and still have room ...

"Find a spot and sit there....
Climb to the top
Of a pine and drink
The wind's green breathe.
Wake to the silence
Of your own scattered bones.
Watch them whiten in the sun.
When they have fallen to powder
And blown away,
The land will...

So it could be mercury retrograde….or it could be our new internet suppliers but the result is I have been forcibly offline for a week and missing you all!
At least we got lots of Yule crafting created and four welsh heritage fruit trees planted.

I adored Alexandra's An(other) Open Invitation to Percolation. From this I indulged in the beautiful and creatively rejuvenating digital sabbatical. Taking this time, not just personally but in sangha with so many other beautiful souls globally was an ama...

My only excuse is...Dyana Valentine made me do it!
No, don't blame her! She is creatrix extraordinaire and an instigator of world-changing work and deep magics. Sometimes learning curves like this appear ...

There are still dragons in Wales, living in the hills. Their strong backs make the mountains, their tails curve around, protecting the villages in the valleys.
We remember our history and the old magics. I pray as my ancestors prayed, we have a line, ben...

I know, I know. You are wondering what to ask for, what to get for your festive winter celebration? It is a challenge.
Never fear. I have the answer and it is books! Unless, of course, the person doesn't like books. ...

We had to flip it.
I mean we had to. I was angry and crying and Linus in his wisdom said, "flip it, trail blazer it, go deeper into it. If that's what's there then just flow with it."
I suppose you want the whole story...or an explantation at least....

It was one of those drab and dismal Autumn days. Squally rain and cold with no light, depression in an afternoon. Grandma was still in her wheelchair (as she'd been hit by a car and her knee had broken). I was in mine. Fun.
We needed to brighten up, so...

Pausing. Wonder doesn't wait for us to notice it. It doesn't need an audiance to occur. It doesn't ask if you are ready and comfortable now.
Wonder is happening around us all the time. It's up to us to stop the whirlygig of our minds, of our pushing-stri...

In the car, driving the 10 miles to Abergavenny along a ribbony road through the fields.
Took this shot from the window as we drove.
"Linus, slow down I want to take a photo!"
"I can't there are cars behind me."
"They won't mind, just a sec."

Have you ever read Plato or Socrates?
I used to read them in the school library when I was thirteen. Rushing up there in my lunch hour. Pulling down old, old books and sneaking my food onto my lap so I could eat it in hidden bites and stay in the lib...

"We can make our minds so like still water that beings gather about us, that they may see their own images, and so live for a moment with a clearer, perhaps even a fiercer life because of our quiet." - Yeats.

Now isn't that sky just worthy of Turner?
When I went to the Tate with Linus for the first time I fell in love with the paintings of J.M.W Turner.
I sat in front of "Snow Storm - Steam Boat off a Harbour's Mouth Making Signals in Shallow Water and G...

It is hard to explain exactly how important post (mail) is until you have lain in bed with that post being your only contact with the outside world.
Until the coming of the postman and the bounty of cards, treats, support and succor he brings are your ...
