Much has been written on the Druids, those enigmatic and mysterious figures of the Celtic World. Majorly in the Roman accounts, they were seen to play the roles of judge, jury, and philosopher-priest all the while acting as Lorekeepers for Sacred Tradition. Despite their infamy, we have almost no...

You know it's funny... the last time I wrote an article on Lughnasadha and the Harvest was on August 1st last year. It's hard to imagine it's been a year since that article. So much has changed. I've grown, I've lost (honestly way too much for one year but hey, live and learn right?) but most...

We’ve talked about the idea of awareness before, it’s one of those things that’s so complicated and yet so decisively simple that we can’t understand it. In the immortal words of Max Planck, “Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And that is because,...

Hail to Amaterasu! To Demeter!

It is their season, and high in the heavens,

may they...

The Dark Mother awaits in silence profound, now is the...

You know... as I sit here on my back porch looking out at my garden and thinking about the last couple of weeks, it strikes me just how transformative and powerful such a short time has been... I sit in good company, watching while the Dryads gently whisper their want for Milk and Honey and the...

As today is August 1st, we are entering the final season of the annual flow of Energetic Seasonal Tides before we reset the cycle in the Winter. These next couple months are going to be defined by a sense of ripening and maturity where all the seeds and ideas that we sowed earlier in the year...
