Past Imbolc ceremonies

A beautiful heartfelt ceremony at Sacred for Imbolc and I had the pleasure of meeting up with Cheryl Staffron who told me she has just ordered my book!  What a delight, I still have Cheryl's book 'Pagan Cornwall' which I bought from her in the early nineties!  We honoured the goddess Brigit at this reverent place and sang to the well spirits and to the serpents breath beneath. Last year I joined with Elayne Bines to conduct ceremony at Madron, alas Elayne wasn't well enough to join us ...

Some of our rescue and rewilded Corvids

Meggie was found behind a bin in Totnes High Street and rescued by three teenagers, one of who was my oldest son Taran.  We immediately came to her rescue, she had hairs, sodden newspapering gum wrapped around her tiny claws and it took a fair while to gently remove them. Meggie was a very young chick so we had to administer food to her through a special veterinary syringe and when she was weaned and strong enough to fly she spent a few weeks in our outdoor aviary.  When we deemed she ...

Surprise Faerie Picnic with a very special guest - Read on...

Come to a surprise faerie picnic in honour of the Willow fan club said my friends Karen and Emily, and so not fully knowing much about it I expected it to be a lovely day with old and new friends who like me love the film 'Willow'.  Well you can imagine my absolute joy when the media turns up and so does Warwick Davis and his family! My son was a tad star struck as he had watched Willow and knew exactly who Warrick was.  We were all to be part of his television series and I even had th...

Whore Moans

I dedicate this poem to all women who may have felt like this during any prolonged severe hormonal surges, I wrote this poem after I realised the very deep depression and anxiety attacks that had caused me to become so upset, wanting to runaway and then feeling utterly reclusive aged 44 were a result of the onset of very severe peri-menopausal hormones.  It was only when I slapped an HRT patch on my arm to see if it was my hormones causing me to feel like this, and then three days I was com...

My Poem - The Witchling

The WitchlingI remember the day the witchling arrived, Autumn had painted the moor, and a whispering breeze sang a song through the trees, as the mist drifted down from the tor. None but I saw the witchling run wild in the wood, and chant under starry lit sky, none but I heard her croak with the ravens above, and her magic entranced none but I. Dragonflies landed so soft on her palm, the corvids fed straight from her hand, and the starlings’ display seemed to mimic her moves, as she circl...

My Shining Spirit Guides - The Shining Ones

What an epic witches retreat this was! Back in October 2021 I organised a witches retreat in Boscastle to coincide with the potent energies of this October Blood/Hunters Moon, and 19 glorious women who felt drawn to attend joined me. During our Saturday evening Blood Moon ceremony in the woods  I found myself communing with my star spirit clan who have been interacting with me since birth and before, I always know when they are with me as I get the cosmic shivers, as I call them.  Nor...

Meeting Fern Britton and hearing her story about seeing real Cornish Piskies! Read on...

I was asked by Channel 5 to meet up with Fern Britton as part of her new series My Cornwall.  The location was absolutely stunning and being the early bird I am I arrived with time to chat to the local farmer who owned the land we were to walk through.  He was a very interesting chap whose family had been custodians of the Padstow Osses for many years, and he asked me to bless one of the cornfields that we would be walking through as it had quite a dark spirit history.  When the p...

My Shamanic Death and Rebirth at St Nectan's Kieve, Autumn Equinox 2020

There are not many witches I know, in fact none as yet, who have experienced what I and my close sisters experienced on the Autumn Equinox 2020, it was truly a proper shamanic death and rebirth at our watery temple in the woods.  I and six other sistas are priestesses and care givers to this very ancient waterfall situated in North Cornwall.  I have been visiting this awe inspiring sacred site since the early nineties and the first words I uttered when I initially arrived here and gaze...

A REAL Faerie Tale Wedding

Truly, magic was in the air on the day of our handfasting at 3 wishes fairy festival in Cornwall! We were absolutely blessed to have had Selkie Shell (Michelle Mari Elliott) perform the Handfasting Ceremony, who completely outdid any expectations either of us had. From the first phone call, I knew she was a truly Wyse Woman, her calm instructive voice made me feel completely at ease and assured me a wonder-filled day was in store. She asked loads of questions about us she wanted to truly tailor ...
