Solstice of the Moon: Circles Out of Time

Posted on November 8, 2020 by Sue Vincent

It looked, for a while, as if we might escape being rained on at our second site of the morning, but no… that would have been too much to ask The ritual cleansing would continue. We were heading for another … Continue reading →

Solstice of the Moon: Sacred Earth

Posted on November 7, 2020 by Sue Vincent

The weather was looking none too promising for the final day of the workshop, but at least it wasn’t really raining. It seemed incredible, under the heavy grey of the sky, that we’d had the clear weather-window the night before, … Continue reading →

Posted on November 3, 2020 by Sue Vincent

Solstice of the Moon: The High Way of the Fairies

Posted on October 30, 2020 by Sue Vincent

We…well, okay, I… decided to take a shortcut from our stopover to our destination. ‘Shortcut’ may not be entirely accurate. Taking the main roads would be nine miles shorter in distance, the roads would undoubtedly be faster and with less … Continue reading →

Posted on October 27, 2020 by Sue Vincent
