  • Priestess News: Holy Smokes am I excited!

    Today I am holy mega excited, as this weekend I start the Priestess of Avalon training course in Glastonbury!  I’ve been looking forward to starting this course all year – it has been the the number one source of excitement in 2013, and something I have been dreaming of doing for the last five years, […]

  • Morgen le Fey, Goddess Extraordinaire

    Morgan le Fey has been my favourite goddess for nearly 10 years. In other news – I am old enough to have consistently done something for 10 years. She’s a funny fish. Although she is sometimes considered an aspect of the Morrighan or of the Welsh Goddess Madron, her primary fame comes from her part […]

The focus is stillness, silence and prayer. Mmmm. I am a big prayer person me. Love love love it. In winter, […]

  • Jumping into Avalon

    Well, as I talked about in my Resonance post all those many many moons ago, I did jump into the scary Priestess of Avalon book-program thing, and so far it’s been not so scary. Worked my way from Samhain up to Beltaine prep and, while I will freely admit I am rubbish at keeping a […]

  • To the Bookshelf!

    Having moved back to Cambridgeshire after the end of university, I feel after the hard work and stress of the past half a year, and the procrastination-fuelled underachievement of the last few relaxed lazy weeks it’s time to get back to my roots and start doing something witchy. I was living in the beautiful green […]
