The one on the left was printed before the one on the right. My publisher, Moon Books, always sends a few samples to authors months before the official publication date. When I got my copies I spotted something I wanted changed, and the editor was absolutely lovely about doing that. I later got sent another complementary author copy, printed the way I wanted. </p><p>Have you spotted the difference yet? </p><p>If you want me to tell you now, read on...</p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Here's the answer...</span></b></p><p>The photograph of flowers throughout the seasons is one way up on the first book, but the other way up on the second. I took the picture and submitted it to the designer with the honeysuckle at the top and the ivy leaves at the bottom because that was how I wanted it to appear on the cover. The designer presumably felt it was better reversed. </p><p>I can understand why they might have thought that. Pagan Wheel of the Year charts usually show Yule at the top and Summer Solstice at the bottom. I don't know, but I suspect this way of thinking might be influenced by analogue clocks with round faces that have 12 at the top indicating midnight and the start of a new day (or a new revolution of the hour hand at noon). It would be a bit like Winter Solstice representing the final festival of the old year before the start of the new one. </p><p>However, if you look at the Wheel of Fortune on a tarot card it has the happiest, lightest spot at the top. That was my inspiration when I took the photo for the book cover. Personally, I don't believe a wheel has to have a set position of top and bottom as it's round, so either cover design works perfectly well in that respect. My book is about "rounding" the Wheel of the Year, after all. It's more that I prefer the look of the second design.</p><p>I thought I'd share this little puzzle as we are currently approaching the spring equinox, when day and night are equal length and it's a time of balance. I think they both look OK - but that first small printing is now the rare version!</p><p>Which do you prefer? </p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvUwOV4U86aiFQ69T1BW2TZZB_27HSZk0adysCJSNK0nY40kfRGUeoAd0pd3WQWHTtVJiWvnVVPnptv__mjHTTPbXxP9kBhiSrA8jBbeJGLfZrbmEGrPIl99RA1v1XT6i9r1C5VsH6N_rKujFYTFHaWZU6tnKnZSebL1AYYlpttQWkuOLBZEgvPAyX-JmV/s650/visualisations%20candle%20magic%20popppets%20scrying%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20book%20covers.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="355" data-original-width="650" height="109" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvUwOV4U86aiFQ69T1BW2TZZB_27HSZk0adysCJSNK0nY40kfRGUeoAd0pd3WQWHTtVJiWvnVVPnptv__mjHTTPbXxP9kBhiSrA8jBbeJGLfZrbmEGrPIl99RA1v1XT6i9r1C5VsH6N_rKujFYTFHaWZU6tnKnZSebL1AYYlpttQWkuOLBZEgvPAyX-JmV/w200-h109/visualisations%20candle%20magic%20popppets%20scrying%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20book%20covers.jpg" width="200" /></a></span></b></div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Find copies of my books</span></b><p></p><p>You can view <i>Pagan Portals - Rounding the Wheel of the Year </i>on <a href="https://amzn.to/3Vk7uBb" target="_blank">Amazon</a> and also search for any of my Pagan Portals titles as well as my Gothic novel <i>Erosion </i>on Moon Book's website: <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/">https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/</a> </p><p><i>Note: I earn commission from some links.

I photographed this patch of nettles and cleavers on an overgrown bank beside my local DIY store, and might pop back to pick some. You can make nettle soup and nettle pesto or use the young tips as a subsitute for spinach in quite a few recipes. I like nettle and mint tea sometimes too. Magically, nettles can be used in protection and banishing spells. Do wear gloves when you handle them though!<div><br /></div><div>Cleavers can also be put in soups and stews. A friend recently told me the shoots are nice boiled as a veg on their own, but apparently they taste best with butter on them. My doctor recently ordered me to cut down on butter, so I might not be trying that. Cleavers have long sticky stems, so magically they are great for bindings.</div><div><br /></div><div>Both of these plants are normally considered weeds. To be honest, they can both grow profusely and tend to take over a flowerbed if left completely unchecked. However, insects and caterpillers love them, so it can be good to leave a patch in your garden for wildlife as well as for harvesting.</div><div><br /></div><div>If you go foraging, make sure you've identified plants correctly, only take what you need, and leave plenty for insects to enjoy.<br /><p></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Share your seasonal photos!</span></b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRimcqkbPZdaB3yTE4LnmUFvR5sJKC_cHWvUgijXj6fpaxbtLuOE0seX2TCPkpvLh897lWaM9Z-0bdd1FxkQoVvgER_iKy4_bZcJ7rjTnITkI42ecBswjhYcS0azd1n4QZFrCMGDREHu6mK4DO7WgghqfZw4PnsPyxtlmK96fEiH5OEqVfXJUGh8BxMRU/s612/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20new%20cover%20with%20right%20photo.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="397" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRimcqkbPZdaB3yTE4LnmUFvR5sJKC_cHWvUgijXj6fpaxbtLuOE0seX2TCPkpvLh897lWaM9Z-0bdd1FxkQoVvgER_iKy4_bZcJ7rjTnITkI42ecBswjhYcS0azd1n4QZFrCMGDREHu6mK4DO7WgghqfZw4PnsPyxtlmK96fEiH5OEqVfXJUGh8BxMRU/w130-h200/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20new%20cover%20with%20right%20photo.jpg" width="130" /></a></div><p>I recently started prompts to share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and other creativity.

My publisher, <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/">Moon Books</a>, has told me that <i>Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls</i> has reached another big sales milestone, having sold more than 4,000 copies. A big thanks to everyone who has bought a copy, left a review, and told me they've enjoyed reading it. <div><br /></div><div>Here's the description from the back cover: <br /><blockquote><i>
Poppets are dolls used for sympathetic magic, and are designed in the likeness of individuals in order to represent them in spells to help, heal or harm. Pagan Portals – Poppets and Magical Dolls explores the history of poppets and offers a practical guide to making and using them in modern witchcraft. It also covers seasonal dolls, from Brigid dolls, used in celebrations for the first stirrings of spring, to fairy dolls enjoyed in tree-dressing at Yuletide.</i></blockquote><div>On Saturday 16 March I'm teaching a workshop on poppet magic at Treadwell's Bookshop, 33 Store Street, Bloomsbury London, WC1E 7BS. The class starts at 1pm and tickets are £22 per person.

Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to the book and bought copies since it was published. It contains contains 366 spells, rituals, meditations, Pagan prayers, divinatory techniques, poems to read and recipes and craft projects to try out. Contributors include Geraldine Beskin, Ellen Evert Hopman, Melusine Draco, Harmonia Saille, Rachel Patterson, Caroline Wise and Elen Sentier and other Moon Books writers.</div><p>As well as coming up with the idea for <i>Every Day Magic</i>, I edited and contributed to it - and I'm very proud of it. However, as it is a community book I do not receive royalties - I asked for any money raised from it to be used to help bring more pagan writers' works into publication.<br /><br />You can <a href="https://amzn.to/3hbj8rE">view Every Day Magic on Amazon</a> and via <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/authors/lucya-starza" target="_blank">my author page at Moon Books</a>.

In their personal practice, my friend felt it was essential to make time for dedicated ritualised ceremonies. My personal practice these days is more about finding the magic in everyday things, and in the world around us.<p></p><p>To me, ritual and ceremony are not synonymous. A ceremony is likely to be ritualistic, but not all rituals are ceremonies. Ritual can mean things like having the first cup of tea in the morning (and to me having the first cup of tea in the morning *is* magical). </p><p>I used to think differently. Back when I was a regular member of a Gardnerian Wiccan coven, I felt it was essential to take part in Esbats and Sabbats as they were where important changes in consciousness happened. I still love ceremonies, and agree doing things like casting a circle, calling the quarters, raising energy and invoking deity can be an intense magical and spiritual experience. </p><p>However, many years ago I became a 24/7 carer for my mum. It meant I could no longer do much in the way of grand ceremonies due to time and space and the needs of the person I loved who I was caring for. So, I started to make everyday things ritualistic and magical: doing the washing up, gardening, going to the shops, preparing and enjoying food and drink. I realised I could put magic into those things and draw magic out of them. Mundane chores can be turned into a meditative exercise, I could raise energy with every step I walked, I could connect with the elements and forces of nature in the garden, I could call on the magic of the moon quietly sitting by my window of an evening while my mother slept, but still be there if she needed me (the Goddess of the Moon understands such things, I realised), I could stir enchantmen into food and let it fill me as I ate it. As I said earlier, having tea became an important ritual, and I experimented with many herbal teas for their various properties too. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAtVomzc9VRgF1xItpi9Q91evx9YwkU-rAbtOUML_J_nRm72gEEkTbGsZUMJh7G9PyfzGUjXUH_EKn-9wumEVZ2QQuQQXn0yJ3E7Agh-1WNYXTL8yohedvvTSdxK-92GN1QKyevB5r-0k_TxusYPDIKzpRoNmgtwlgPo7e09b3QS650pTmTS8tZ5jsjn8Y/s378/besom%20broom%20small.JPG" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="378" data-original-width="283" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAtVomzc9VRgF1xItpi9Q91evx9YwkU-rAbtOUML_J_nRm72gEEkTbGsZUMJh7G9PyfzGUjXUH_EKn-9wumEVZ2QQuQQXn0yJ3E7Agh-1WNYXTL8yohedvvTSdxK-92GN1QKyevB5r-0k_TxusYPDIKzpRoNmgtwlgPo7e09b3QS650pTmTS8tZ5jsjn8Y/s320/besom%20broom%20small.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>Magic is everywhere, it isn't separate from the world, in my opinion. Ceremonies can definitely connect with the powers of the earth, sky, heavens, and deities, but that can be done in other ways too. It was a revelation to me that I could turn what might seem mundane to many into magical ritual, although I suspect plenty of women will nod their heads. <p></p><p>Historically it was usually women who took the caring roles and who were more tied up with the home. I think generally women developed more kitchen-based magical practices whereas ceremonial magic was more generally done by men. Of course there were many exceptions to those generalisations and I realise the world is a different place now and gender roles are different too. </p><p>I think I upset my friend with our discussion because he very much disagreed with me. However, it reminded me of the roots of my own personal magical practice. When I had to give up my own home and career to be a full-time carer, I needed to change my entire perspective on what was important to me. I started writing this witchcraft blog to keep my brain engaged and continue my magical development even when I had to be present and available in my role as a carer. I could tap away at my computer while keeping an eye on mum. As I've mentioned, I also developed magical practices around doing the household chores. Without the blog and the personal home-based magical practice I would never have the career I do now as an author of <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/10/where-you-can-find-my-pagan-portals.html" target="_blank">books on practical magic</a> and a teacher of workshops on magic and witchcraft. </p><p>However, I completely understand that some people, including my friend, feel I'm deluding myself over the relative value of kitchen or home-based eclectic witchcraft compared with ceremonial magical practices. We each have our own paths and I am not trying to say that my path is better than any other. They are just different. </p><p>But what do you think? Is ceremonial magic more vibrant or valuable than kitchen-style witchcraft?

Bessie was the first Black American woman and Native American woman to learn to fly. This was during the 1920s, and she was constantly told she would never fulfil her dream. However, she was determined. Enlisting the help of a newspaper, she raised sponsorship to travel to France where she learned to fly, and then went on to become a top stunt pilot. <p></p><p>The message of this card is to find clarity and purpose in your life, and make plans to achieve your goals. It's about intellect, showing the importance of thinking before acting. What would you like to achieve that seems impossible? You might find opportunities if you do research to find them, then form a clear plan to get what you want.</p><p>All the cards in <i>Our Tarot: A Guidebook and Deck Featuring Notable Women in History </i>depict real women rather than goddesses or figures from mythology. The book that comes with the set includes pages of information about them and their importance in the world. </p><p></p><p><i>Our Tarot is by Sarah Shipman and is published by Harper Design.</i></p><p><i>You can <a href="https://amzn.to/48k7XH7" target="_blank">view the deck on Amazon</a>.

I wish I had that power. However, I made this doll to combine a celebration of three very different events happening this week: World Book Day, International Women's Day and Mothering Sunday. <p></p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Celebrating Being an Author</span></b></p><p>Today is World Book Day, which is all about the love of books. I made the doll in the picture to represent myself as the proud author of quite a few titles. I photographed my poppet surrounded by some of them published by <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/" target="_blank">Moon Books</a>. In the Pagan Portals series I've written <i>Candle Magic, Scrying, Guided Visualisations, Rounding the Wheel of the Year</i>, and <i>Poppets and Magical Dolls</i>. </p><p>My first novel, <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/our-books/erosion-novel" target="_blank">Erosion</a>, is due to come out in April and I'm incredibly proud of the achievement. It's a Gothic tale set in 1987 - the year of the Great Storm - on the English coast. I'll be doing a book signing at Treadwell's in London on Saturday 6 April and it would be lovely to see anyone who wants to pop in and say hello.

The doll honours diversity because she can be made in a variety of skin tones, there's an option to add glasses (like I did) and a headscarf as well as other clothing options. The pattern is available to download completely free from the Hobbycraft website here: <a href="https://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/ideas/how-to-sew-a-doll.html?">https://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/ideas/how-to-sew-a-doll.html?</a><p></p><p>Although Hobbycraft includes a long list of materials it suggests you buy, I made my doll entirely from scraps of fabric, wool, thread, and filling that I already had. I also hand-sewed her rather than use a machine. The poppet's trousers are upcycled from one of my old pairs of holey leggings, to link her more closely to me. I made the top from a scrap of fabric in my mother's old sewing box, which leads me on to how my doll also helps me remember my mum.</p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Celebrating Mothering Sunday</span></b></p><p>In England, Mothering Sunday takes place at a different time of year from American Mother's Day. It's a custom dating back to the Middle Ages, and is always on the fourth Sunday of Lent. Back then it was a Christian festival when people were supposed to go to their "Mother Church" as well as visit their real mums and maybe give them some flowers. Nowadays most of us just do the latter unless, like me, our mums have passed on.</p><p>I always do something on this day to remember the happy times I shared with my mother. She taught me to sew and knit, and inspired my love of crafting. She also made dolls, which she sold to raise money for the charity Age UK. This year I honoured her memory when I made this doll myself, partly using materials from her old sewing box. </p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Poppets</span></b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjyCJXPTfnW_3kWgCeR5aqWPFfUBg9qRrT7FyxVUgt0hhzUJackoYogaQFNfbYQdEPPtBpzqPUUXd-Ep00qhh4Jwhy8c_HA_T6xRCsN_zXXnYIy6Ya72xOPiHcBrs_j3qdfuykgBez8NAvDEKzBiOkaRSg5jYSHA3W7Rx3jOqTjek-8V8EOBsgELzW3D_/s2897/poppets%20by%20Lucya%20Starza.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2642" data-original-width="2897" height="292" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjyCJXPTfnW_3kWgCeR5aqWPFfUBg9qRrT7FyxVUgt0hhzUJackoYogaQFNfbYQdEPPtBpzqPUUXd-Ep00qhh4Jwhy8c_HA_T6xRCsN_zXXnYIy6Ya72xOPiHcBrs_j3qdfuykgBez8NAvDEKzBiOkaRSg5jYSHA3W7Rx3jOqTjek-8V8EOBsgELzW3D_/s320/poppets%20by%20Lucya%20Starza.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>My book <i>Pagan Portals - Poppets and Magical Dolls</i> has lots of other suggestions for ways to use dolls for spells, seasonal celebrations and inspiration. Here's the description from the back cover: <p></p><div><blockquote><i>Poppets are dolls used for sympathetic magic, and are designed in the likeness of individuals in order to represent them in spells to help, heal or harm. Pagan Portals – Poppets and Magical Dolls explores the history of poppets and offers a practical guide to making and using them in modern witchcraft. It also covers seasonal dolls, from Brigid dolls, used in celebrations for the first stirrings of spring, to fairy dolls enjoyed in tree-dressing at Yuletide.</i></blockquote><div>On Saturday 16 March I'll be teaching a workshop on poppet magic at Treadwell's Bookshop, 33 Store Street, Bloomsbury London, WC1E 7BS.

Even if you don't have a garden you can grow herbs from seed in pots for your windowsill. <p></p><p>Here’s a spell you can do to manifest your wishes for the year to come as well as grow some lovely herbs. It uses the energy of spring to boost your magic and empower your intentions. I planted basil because it's associated with prosperity, good health, good luck and abundance, and tastes lovely in pasta sauces and tomato dishes, but you can use other seeds if you prefer. </p><p>You will need: </p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Seeds (the photo shows my basil seeds)</li><li>A pot, propogator or seed tray plus something to put it on for drainage</li><li>Lightweight potting mixture or compost</li><li>Clear plastic to cover the pot while the seeds germinate. (You can reuse a clear plastic bag).</li></ul><p></p><p>Put the potting mixture into the pot or seed trays. Sow a few seeds 1inch or 2.5cms apart in big pots or 1 or 2 per tiny pot. </p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Here's the Magic!</span></b></p><p>As you plant your seeds, visualise what you want to manifest in your life. You can say something like: “As I sow these basil seeds, so I plant the seeds of what I wish to manifest in my life.”</p><p>Water the seeds, but don’t overwater them. The compost should be damp, not soggy. Visualise pouring your desire and emotional energy into your wish as you do so.</p><p>Put the plastic cover over the pot or tray and place it all in a warm, sunny window but out of direct sunlight. Visualise the warmth and light of the sun energising the seed and your wish.</p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Seeing Results</span></b></p><p>You should see the seeds sprout in a couple of weeks. You can then transfer them to larger pots, tubs or window boxes. When they’ve grown tall and produced a lot of leaves, harvest a few at a time to use as you desire. Putting them into your cooking or salads adds to the magic, if you grew edible herbs like I have.</p><p>You will hopefully experience the benefits of your spell in the weeks or months to come.</p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Rounding the Year</span></b></p><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRK3zS9YnSEnNJe0m_JTRwzEnxccZ70pQDRHEgk5A0NgG1ZjE6KwEZp1qE0_qK54F1DkLiD8kDUkLhBPFuJ9DtM7fvi5xpLYx9S7ae18CBQ9coE1ImgokmDksQ1QOKSqObu7sTRND8lTsFKm6iZHKjHt5B4cogsQXaF92rjt8DmhybZfRqbEJ9v-mGQ0j/s1896/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20small.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1105" data-original-width="1896" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirRK3zS9YnSEnNJe0m_JTRwzEnxccZ70pQDRHEgk5A0NgG1ZjE6KwEZp1qE0_qK54F1DkLiD8kDUkLhBPFuJ9DtM7fvi5xpLYx9S7ae18CBQ9coE1ImgokmDksQ1QOKSqObu7sTRND8lTsFKm6iZHKjHt5B4cogsQXaF92rjt8DmhybZfRqbEJ9v-mGQ0j/w320-h186/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20small.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>I recently started prompts to share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and other creativity, so please leave a comment or share a photo of what you're doing or what you see out and about as the wheel turns.

There's also some extracts from his latest book: A Path Through the Forest.</i><p></p><p>My latest book is different in nature from anything else I have done. It’s an exercise in looking backwards, although a handful of pieces were written for this collection of essays and interviews. I was going through my website and some of the old articles on my computer, which gave me the idea to collect them into one volume, given the shear number of them. </p><p>Perhaps half of the articles I have written over the past two decades are on Druidism, with the remainder being on horticulture, economics, environmentalism and social issues. Of course, there is some amount of overlap, but I decided to try to stick to what I consider is directly relevant to Druidry/Druidism.</p><p>Looking back, I can see that I am fundamentally the same, but that my perspective and ideas have inevitably changed, just as Druidry has changed since I first became involved in it. Who would have thought 20 years ago that there would have been a massive economic collapse, legal Pagan weddings, legal divorce and legal gay/lesbian weddings, in a country like Ireland? Also we have seen massive political polarisation, environmental protests, terror attacks all over the world, a major pandemic, UFO disclosures, artificial intelligence, and yet more wars that could blow up (hopefully not) into WW3?</p><p>It hasn’t all been bad, some of what has changed has been positive and certainly if ethical considerations in human existence have become more important, then that can only be a good thing, surely?</p><p>So anyway, I am pleased to present a few extracts from <i>A Path Through the Forest. </i>to give you a flavour, which I hope is a stimulating and thought provoking book. This is an important and exciting time be alive, if perhaps sometimes scary and uncertain, but doesn’t that give all of us all something to think about? What are we here for? What can we do to make a difference? That is for each one of us for to decide, but a little prompting to think more deeply about such things does us no harm, I am certain. It certainly did me some good to re-read the things I wrote, over the years, and reflect on how things have changed and on things that I hope will change in the future.<br /><br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcxA_zfXWp_JuL_FdLayECPFeA3IzDTySDRbdM354wABxlv10JEItla45ZeUYTtomCoPmA6em1YFaxz_oTd9z99OJOyH4SvAyhruEod1RuFq5IQ5o27WmPOtQz5CB3aaU3NN9HOxkPOYSen2Hq93h9JJcB0E8_MV-jAnywmwfdUqlvdZ3j16FHmCcioYDz/s2551/APTTF%20front%20cover.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2551" data-original-width="1654" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcxA_zfXWp_JuL_FdLayECPFeA3IzDTySDRbdM354wABxlv10JEItla45ZeUYTtomCoPmA6em1YFaxz_oTd9z99OJOyH4SvAyhruEod1RuFq5IQ5o27WmPOtQz5CB3aaU3NN9HOxkPOYSen2Hq93h9JJcB0E8_MV-jAnywmwfdUqlvdZ3j16FHmCcioYDz/s320/APTTF%20front%20cover.jpg" width="207" /></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>From <i>What Does It Mean to be a Druid Today?</i> (2006)</b></span><p></p><p>“Druidry should be a serious business and if we wish to be taken seriously as a religious community it is necessary to maintain genuine continuity between the past and the present. I think that the extremist view of both the ‘Reconstructionist’ and the ‘Revivalist’ as I have described is flawed and those who take either path cannot be reconciled with those of the opposite path. I believe that the way forward is the combination of an experiential approach with continued exploration of the ancient roots of Druidry, only through sensitive application of both approaches can we maintain a spiritual path that is progressive and alive whilst remaining true to the traditions and culture of the ancient Celtic peoples.”<br /><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>From ‘Growing Sacred Food a Small Space’ (<i>Weathering The Storm</i>, 2020)</b></span></p><p>“As Pagans we are supposed to care about the Earth, to respect nature and the gods of the Earth, perhaps the Earth Goddesses most of all – Gaia, Danu or whoever you choose. In reality many Pagans fall short in practical application of their good intentions – I have visited the abodes of many Pagans and found both house/apartment and garden sadly bereft of plants, and any sign of a living connection with nature. Perhaps the current COVID-19 crisis is not only a wake up call, but an opportunity to get closer to nature and become more self-sufficent? Getting into a natural space, especially a wild space, is the easiest and most obvious way to connect physically with the elements and the natural world, but this is not always practical for those in cities and large towns.</p><p>The other alternative, in this situation, is to bring nature to your home, with an abundance of plant life, that will oxygenate your home, provide food and also provide a direct and practical means to connect with the natural world. Of course we are already part of the natural world, but in our technological age, it is very easy to forget that fact, and for many, the connection to nature is weak or almost non-existent.”<br /><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>From ‘Rebirth of the Druidic Path’ (<i>MePagan,</i> 2021)</b></span></p><p>“One should beware of anyone who makes grandiose claims with regard to Druidic knowledge, lineages or other such unlikely connections with the original Druids of western Europe. In almost all cases, such claims are fraudulent and are based in ego and self-promotion, rather than any genuine desire to pass on proven ancient Druidic wisdom. At the end of the day, we all have to follow our own path and our own judgment. For me this is a very Gnostic path, informed by my understanding of both the ancient Druidic tradition and the Neo-Druidic tradition of the last three centuries. If following the Druidic path helps one to achieve genuine wisdom and be of service to humanity and the world then whether it is ancient or modern becomes largely irrelevant.”</p>

Julia creates wonderful embroidered versions of flowers, leaves, butterflies, and mushrooms. This gorgeous hardback shows her creations as full-page colourful pictures that I've really enjoyed examining. It also offers oodles of information on the folklore and magic of plants, together with recipes and suggestions for ways to use them. <p>This is how publisher <a href="https://www.unicornpublishing.org/" target="_blank">Unicorn</a> describes <i>Seasons for the Soul:</i></p><p></p><blockquote>"The beauty and magic of nature seen through the eye of a needle. Colours of flowers and shapes of plants; bleached grass and golden cornfields at harvest time; spiders webs on the structures of decayed seedheads; a metallic green chafer beetle landing on a deep crimson rose; a shooting star. Beguiling discoveries that are part of the world full of secrets, minute details and the sumptuous colours and textures of nature lend themselves to their translation into rich embroidery. This embroidered path of the seasons uses hand embroidery in its traditional role of storytelling to share nature’s gifts. Each stitch holds the emotion of the moment and keeps a record. The book tells the story of the companionship and healing offered by the seasons during the enforced isolation of the pandemic, and how it enabled the artist to find beauty in solitude."</blockquote><p></p><p>The book follows the seasons from spring through summer and autumn into winter, showing the yearly cycle in all its glory, but focussing on the small things such as petals and insects. Julia includes crystals in her embroidery, and a chapter on what they mean. There's also a section on the history of embroidery, explaining how people from all times and cultures have depicted nature through stitchcraft.</p><p>On my blog and in my own book, <i><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2023/12/resolving-resolutions-rounding-wheel-of.html" target="_blank">Rounding the Wheel of the Year</a></i>, I encourage people to spend time outdoors, and use art and craft as well as photography to record what they see. Like Julia, I believe creating beautiful things inspired by plants and animals is a way of tapping in to their magical energy. Julia comes from a part of England I'm familiar with and love: Kent, which is an added reason I love her delightful book. </p><p>You can <a href="https://amzn.to/3wzwMB7" target="_blank">view <i>Seasons for the Soul - Spells of Nature</i> on Amazon</a>. </p><p><i>(Note: I earn commission from some links.

I photographed this colourful wizard on the blinds of a shop the other day. He brought a little magic to a grey February day. <div><br /></div><div>My husband told me the wizard is a character from He-Man.<br /><p></p><p>I consider myself really lucky to live in the area because every time I go for a wander around the streets I see a gallery of amazing art for free. What's more the art changes regularly as more pieces are painted, and old pictures replaced with new ones. All of the art is legal and done with permission of the people who own the properties that get beautified.</p><p>There's even a book that celebrates the art of SE20: <i>SprayExhibition20 - The Street Art of Penge and Anerley</i>. It's a catalogue of colour pictures showing some of the murals on walls, gates, shop window shutters and other urban spaces as well as offering a history of the group of artists responsible for turning the area into an open-air gallery. </p><p>The group originally launched a blog called London Calling, about street art in the capital. They then decided that as well as documenting things in places like Shoreditch, Camden and Hackney, they would bring that creativity closer to where they were based. You can find out more about the street art in Penge here: <a href="https://londoncallingblog.net/2017/05/01/a-street-art-guide-to-penge/">https://londoncallingblog.net/2017/05/01/a-street-art-guide-to-penge/</a> </p><p>Previous related posts<br /><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2022/01/review-sprayexhibition20-street-art-of.html">http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2022/01/review-sprayexhibition20-street-art-of.html</a><br /><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/07/street-art-empowering-women-on-south.html">http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/07/street-art-empowering-women-on-south.html</a><br /><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2022/02/pagan-eye-candle-in-street-art-for.html">http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2022/02/pagan-eye-candle-in-street-art-for.html</a></p></div>Badwitchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10548605170878666546noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152532055090335650.post-50264587777135099612024-02-28T08:00:00.011+00:002024-03-03T07:46:47.923+00:00Magical Online & London Events in the Next Weeks<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWiuAtAON__L5e8jDGZa5z9uTAab8rH-tTepSt4-NN0irDPCtHzW1Mj0CqmC7gFJVxgky-CiafVbpAr6oCVYPyCbanIRQd5JlJJi5KnBuKjfdN7GX8_HbtgwBjCIp9hdTCqMwnTFSYUQO2c5qlW1JuUzq3PuioUeSbohjj-dFiJE115q2YstZvNTdVpXQB/s482/magnolia%20blossom%20small2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="314" data-original-width="482" height="260" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWiuAtAON__L5e8jDGZa5z9uTAab8rH-tTepSt4-NN0irDPCtHzW1Mj0CqmC7gFJVxgky-CiafVbpAr6oCVYPyCbanIRQd5JlJJi5KnBuKjfdN7GX8_HbtgwBjCIp9hdTCqMwnTFSYUQO2c5qlW1JuUzq3PuioUeSbohjj-dFiJE115q2YstZvNTdVpXQB/w400-h260/magnolia%20blossom%20small2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p><i>Here's a list of events for pagans, witches and those with similar interests.

It reminds me of my mum, who planted it there many years ago. It also shows me that things don't always turn out as badly as I fear they might. Back in 2016 I was told the forsythia would have to be removed so a crack in my garden wall could be fixed. I blogged about how sad I was about that, and you can <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2016/04/pagan-eye-forsythia-flowers-and-crack.html" target="_blank">read that post here</a>. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCl8BJu7Qh5cIrFORdm8M_D2FVNBtVOBQIBVtuKhTUc3bRWkJEjfpd1SXza9TG1dKPzaeMS4_brRZL72_ps04-tQeoRIlLHPbuR8zcUWeFWBbbbZ9NC399jmxah_ivHhDwM0c4ljXjS0sXry3xaNMfSG73PWYBjr3-aXKF0UmQwX7jbSVqIv2jE04X8QLq/s762/camelia%20small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="762" data-original-width="650" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCl8BJu7Qh5cIrFORdm8M_D2FVNBtVOBQIBVtuKhTUc3bRWkJEjfpd1SXza9TG1dKPzaeMS4_brRZL72_ps04-tQeoRIlLHPbuR8zcUWeFWBbbbZ9NC399jmxah_ivHhDwM0c4ljXjS0sXry3xaNMfSG73PWYBjr3-aXKF0UmQwX7jbSVqIv2jE04X8QLq/w274-h320/camelia%20small.jpg" width="274" /></a></div>In the end, the wall got mended and the forsythia was spared. The bricks are starting to crack again, but I think I can live with a crack in the garden wall if the alternative is losing my lovely hedge that blossoms so cheerfully.<p></p><p><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2020/03/pagan-eye-red-camellia-blooming-in-my.html" target="_blank">Camelias</a> are also starting to bloom in my garden - early this year. They bring back memories of my mum too, as we planted that bush together. I always remember my mum when I see the forsythia and camelias in bloom, more than I do on Mothering Sunday, which is generally a few weeks later. </p><p>English Mother's Day is on Sunday, 10 March in the UK this year, and has a different origin from American Mother's Day. We call it Mothering Sunday, and it takes place three weeks before Easter Sunday as part of traditional Lent customs.</p><p>You can see photos of my forsythia and camelia on this post. </p><p><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Join me for an online talk on spring folklore tonight</span></b></p><p>I'm giving an online talk called The Magic and Folklore of Springtime this evening, Tuesday 27 February, via the College of Psychic Studies.

I think its more accurately a greater periwinkle, or Vinca major. <div><br /></div><div>I've blogged in the past about Madagascan periwinkle being used in herbal medicine. You can <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2016/09/healing-herbs-periwinkle-flowers-at-kew.html" target="_blank">find that post here</a>. Greater periwinkle has been used by herbalists to treat skin conditions, but the purple flower that blooms in early spring is also used in European folk magic. According to the website <a href="https://www.botanical.com/botanical/mgmh/p/periwi27.htm" target="_blank">Botanical</a> an old name for the plant was "Sorcerer's Violet" and it was used for making love potions as well as for getting rid of "evil spirits"<br /><div><br /></div><div>The flower grows on long vines which can be used to make really pretty spring garlands or wreaths. However, don't let your pets eat the plant as it is poisonous to cats and dogs. </div><div><br /></div><div><div>I recently started prompts to share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and other creativity, so please leave a comment or share a photo of what you're doing or what you see out and about as the wheel turns.

I took the photo above when I went to see the exhibition last weekend. </p><p>It explains that each Century of Roman troops had it's own standard, which was carried into battle. The standards were poles with emblems on top that often depicted birds or animals. The eagle was probably the most prestigious symbol in Rome, but by 100AD dragon standards were highly important too. They had been adopted from Rome's Sarmation (Iranian) enemies. The metal dragon head was attached to a wind sock. As it was carried along it made a roaring whistle designed to scare opponents. All Roman standards were considered sacred and carefully guarded.</p><p>The Legion exhibition runs until 23 June 2024 and is at the The Sainsbury Exhibitions Gallery, British Museum, Great Russell St, London WC1B 3DG. Standard tickets are £22 but you must book in advance. Members get in free and don't have to book.</p><p>My Pagan Eye posts show photos that I find interesting - seasonal images, pagan sites, events, or just pretty pictures. If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to <a href="mailto:badwitch1234@gmail.com">badwitch1234@gmail.com</a> Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you've taken yourself. </p><p><i>(Note: I earn commission from some links.

Here I talk to medicinal plant specialist Angela Paine about her fascinating look at the uses of herbs in Renaissance Italy:<p></p><p><b>Q: What book have you got coming out next in 2024?</b></p><p>A: My book due out in 2024 is <i>Healing Plants of Renaissance Florence</i>. </p><p><b>Q: What’s it about?</b></p><p>A: It focuses on the Medici family, who promoted herbal medicine, set up a herbal medical faculty in Pisa University and created the first large botanical gardens. They also promoted botanical art and alchemy.</p><p><b>Q: What event or events are you planning around the launch?</b><br /><br />A: I will give illustrated talks around the launch and may run week-long medicinal plant courses in Tuscany. (There will be more information later in the year.)</p><p><b>Q: What are you currently working on?</b></p><p>I’m currently working, together with a friend, on a book about edible plants of Crete.</p><p><b>Q: Please tell me more about yourself.</b></p><p>A: My botanist father taught me to recognise the plants that grew in Kent, where I grew up on a farm. I have a PhD in the medicinal plant chemistry of tropical plants used to treat tropical diseases, from London University. I’m the author of <i>The Healing Power of Celtic Plants, </i><i>Healing Plants of the Celtic Druids, </i><i>Healing Plants of Greek Myth.</i></p><p><i>Healing Plants of Renaissance Florence </i>is due to be published in December 2024<i>. Y</i>ou can find Angela Paine's author page at publisher Moon Books: <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/authors/angela-paine">https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/authors/angela-paine</a><br /><br />The book can be <a href="https://amzn.to/49haouA" target="_blank">viewed on Amazon</a>.

Anyone who has tarot cards will know that the boxes get tatty, especially if you carry them around. The cards themselves often also need extra protection to stop the edges scuffing. What's more, tarot bags look nice. <p></p><p>Tarot bags can be expensive to buy, so here's how to make one. </p><p><b>Pick your Fabric</b><br />The cheapest way is to upcycle something you already own and love, but which has worn out. You can upcycle old clothes or, like I did, even household furnishings. The fabric for my tarot bag once adorned a much-loved sofa that collapsed. Yes, really. I'd already turned some of it into a drum bag, but still had bits in my crafting box.</p><p><b>Also Needed</b><br />You will also need thread and a sewing needle (or a sewing machine). If you've done other sewing then you're likely to have these already. The other essential is a cord to go through the channel at the top. I reused a cord that had once been part of a gift bag, but you could plait a cord from leftover wool as an alternative. </p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAAoOTQVIiamFOZUw5Yhe1eAnqGnAQ4bAmQKfUS3qjuKD5kSAMX68C6dDgAJaaO6orsARPt9yf1ZUPD0IpZGr7VsaKcCG_Yx9geOy4uaWHF28M2CCD2eb3KPao3P-V_MuZ3LInkd5McZmUTWknY1ilSHCg4TIb55NsrRBYz2jPx_aK2S-Sde3Z7fFuWYL-/s769/tarot%20bag%20sewing%20small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="769" data-original-width="650" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAAoOTQVIiamFOZUw5Yhe1eAnqGnAQ4bAmQKfUS3qjuKD5kSAMX68C6dDgAJaaO6orsARPt9yf1ZUPD0IpZGr7VsaKcCG_Yx9geOy4uaWHF28M2CCD2eb3KPao3P-V_MuZ3LInkd5McZmUTWknY1ilSHCg4TIb55NsrRBYz2jPx_aK2S-Sde3Z7fFuWYL-/w169-h200/tarot%20bag%20sewing%20small.jpg" width="169" /></a><b></b></div><b>Cut an Oblong</b><br />You need an oblong piece that's about 3 times as long as your tarot cards, and at least 1.5 times as wide. I used pinking shears to stop the edges fraying, but that's optional.<p></p><p><b>To Sew</b><br />Fold the fabric in half with the right sides together. Sew seams from the fold up each side of the bag to just above the height of the tarot cards. Turn the seams inwards and iron flat. Then turn down the top of the fabric at each side, with the folded side edges inwards. Sew the turned flaps across the top to secure them while leaving an open channel to thread a cord through. I hand-stitched my bag, as you can see from the photos.</p><p><b>Finishing Touches</b><br />Turn the bag right sides out then thread your cord through the channel at the top and tie the ends. </p><p><b>Optional Flourishes</b><br />If you want your bag to look smooth and lovely inside as well as out then you can use thinner fabric to make a lining for the bag. You could also embroider the outside. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGvpVNX5KUJ4kMkfBnsF0bOtdyYMWPKRP-bhRSHaNa-1_F83r7O-jcarGFGR2LerUR4S5-D8puaMDs7iRKo0yP6Dsl2KdhgjDYNVJgu4m1-hrtwC0WZ_HJBUPqox_4_ySnZ6jH0zk53QavKRY-kVLdG35WCyYHQzE-DLvkCAoAwtH6jzt5Py6eEZu7wylc/s400/drum%20bag%20landscape%20small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="327" data-original-width="400" height="164" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGvpVNX5KUJ4kMkfBnsF0bOtdyYMWPKRP-bhRSHaNa-1_F83r7O-jcarGFGR2LerUR4S5-D8puaMDs7iRKo0yP6Dsl2KdhgjDYNVJgu4m1-hrtwC0WZ_HJBUPqox_4_ySnZ6jH0zk53QavKRY-kVLdG35WCyYHQzE-DLvkCAoAwtH6jzt5Py6eEZu7wylc/w200-h164/drum%20bag%20landscape%20small.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>Here are some other ideas for crafting, upcycling and witchcraft on a shoestring:<br /><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/03/spellcraft-magical-charm-bracelet-from.html" target="_blank">Magical Charm Bracelet</a> from Upcycled Paper</li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/06/witchcraft-on-shoestring-journals-books.html" target="_blank">Using Witchy Greeting Cards</a> in Journals and Books of Shadows</li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2020/09/witchcraft-on-shoestring-ramekin.html" target="_blank">Ramekin Candleholders</a></li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2021/11/witchcraft-on-shoestring-upcycled.html" target="_blank">Upcycled Storage Boxes</a></li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2020/05/witchcraft-on-shoestring-useful-jars-to.html" target="_blank">Useful Jars to Put Things In</a></li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2019/10/rattle-upcycled-from-crisps-tube.html" target="_blank">Rattle</a> Upcycled From a Crisps Tube and Pumpkin Seeds</li><li>Fabric Upcycled into a <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2018/05/craft-i-upcycled-my-sofa-into-drum-bag.html" target="_blank">Drum Bag</a> (pictured)</li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2013/04/my-home-made-staff-from-beachcombed.html" target="_blank">Staff</a> from Beachcombed Flotsam</li><li>Turning a Pen into a <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2011/08/recycling-turning-pen-into-wand.html" target="_blank">Wand</a></li><li>Recycling <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2015/01/candle-magic-recycling-candles-for.html" target="_blank">Candles</a></li><li><a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2023/01/witchy-crafts-mini-broomstick-jewellery.html" target="_blank">A Mini Broomstick Jewellery Hanger</a><br /><br /></li></ul>My book <i>Pagan Portals - Rounding the Wheel of the Year </i>contains lots of ideas for seasonal and witchy crafting.<i> </i>You can <a href="https://amzn.to/3I38QbO">view the book on Amazon</a> or at my publisher - <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/our-books/pagan-portals-rounding-wheel-year" target="_blank">Moon Books</a>.

Copies will soon be sent to distributors' warehouses to make sure they reach shops before the publication date. It is already available to pre-order.</p><p><i>Erosion </i>is a contemporary gothic novel filled with magical weirdness, set in a run-down English seaside town in the year of the Great Storm. The subtitle is: 'Of Friendship, Dreams and the Edge of a Cliff'. Here's a little more detail from the synopsis:</p><p></p><p></p><blockquote>"'It all began when we found the bones…' This is the start of Erosion, a gothic novel set on the English coast, in 1987, the year of the Great Storm. Violent weather is but one of the problems a group of friends face when they discover an ancient grave inside a crumbling cliff and decide to unearth a skull. Supernatural mystery intertwines with the problems of human relationships, of earning money, of following dreams." </blockquote><p></p><p>I'm very grateful to Ben Aaronovitch, author of the Rivers of London series, for writing the endorsement that appears at the top of my novel: </p><p></p><blockquote>"An elegiac tale of memory, growth and regret set along the crumbling coast of 1980s Kent." </blockquote><p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi88VXKLgCwH9g0K0uGZuvO-xfmE71D5nJvCbh3Z0ilaP0njZxTH66gvQ4CbT68xRFx_rueLqFMaRJsN10ynX6DxKSs3nzGEghuLI6GYqvYSAb3kNcxJfIEyKKDPmyvOj50DcUprcQbVl2_-WPb4Rn-OTwxmLDLfJZfbpECF-PhlMXAuVs9RADal-T0Ppfg/s2551/erosion%20cover%20low%20res%20proof.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2551" data-original-width="1654" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi88VXKLgCwH9g0K0uGZuvO-xfmE71D5nJvCbh3Z0ilaP0njZxTH66gvQ4CbT68xRFx_rueLqFMaRJsN10ynX6DxKSs3nzGEghuLI6GYqvYSAb3kNcxJfIEyKKDPmyvOj50DcUprcQbVl2_-WPb4Rn-OTwxmLDLfJZfbpECF-PhlMXAuVs9RADal-T0Ppfg/s320/erosion%20cover%20low%20res%20proof.jpg" width="207" /></a></div>The painting on the cover is by Su Jolly, a Kent artist who specialises in beach lansdscape pictures. I feel the image very much reflects the fiction.<p></p><p>At the same time as being informed about the paperback being printed, I was told: "Your ebook for "Erosion" is now ready!" That's very exciting, as it means I can send ebooks out to reviewers. If you write about books for a magazine, newspaper, pagan website or site dedicated to reviewing fiction, and you want to have a look at a copy of my novel before the official release date, please let me know.</p><p>My publisher is Moon Books, an imprint of Collective Ink.

It's described as an inspirational guide to embodying your inner wolf. It's due to reach shops in August, but can already be pre-ordered and I had a chance to read it early. This is the endorsement I wrotre about it:<p></p><p></p><blockquote><i>Wolf</i>, by Rachel Roberts, is a book for anyone who wants to learn about the lives, myths, legends, and stories of these enigmatic and inspiring creatures, then use that knowledge for personal development and spiritual empowerment. She offers an in-depth look at how wolves behave in their natural habitat, how humans have interacted with them over millennia, how they have been woven into mythology, and how they have come to symbolise things we fear but also our own wild nature. Wolves in packs demonstrate the importance of teamwork and close family bonds, while the concept of the lone wolf represents the importance of following one’s own path and gaining self-knowledge. Rachel Roberts offers practical ways we can use those archetypes both psychologically and magically, using such things as journalling, visualisation, affirmations, and invocations.</blockquote><p><i>Wolf: Untamed, Courageous, Empowered </i>is published by <a href="https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/moon-books/" target="_blank">Moon Books</a>. </p><p><i>Note: I earn commission from advertisers for some links.</i></p>Badwitchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10548605170878666546noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152532055090335650.post-12456841151243149682024-02-14T08:00:00.012+00:002024-02-16T15:31:26.697+00:00Magical Online & London Events in the Next Weeks<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4gjwgkibYYeCKR4arviSpvyDuVRg3WmxoBLtRk9SWEB4-KtgROw4h-nQhFCcfITmRUVTNG_4zxjH7n9p8mumXZx9k6Kt-nV3GXPwZfQ8hcFUi9nz6PkQRzxDvq6mwscFqse0OnHu1-Qrdrv_HTd-Dx0ucIVEfdNKWKy9dgdVg1BeNN37BqokJ18D1BvNF/s1429/hearts%20and%20rose%20petals%20for%20love%20magic%20(2).jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="767" data-original-width="1429" height="215" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4gjwgkibYYeCKR4arviSpvyDuVRg3WmxoBLtRk9SWEB4-KtgROw4h-nQhFCcfITmRUVTNG_4zxjH7n9p8mumXZx9k6Kt-nV3GXPwZfQ8hcFUi9nz6PkQRzxDvq6mwscFqse0OnHu1-Qrdrv_HTd-Dx0ucIVEfdNKWKy9dgdVg1BeNN37BqokJ18D1BvNF/w400-h215/hearts%20and%20rose%20petals%20for%20love%20magic%20(2).jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><i>Here is a list of magical online and London-based in-person events over Valentine's Day, Lupercalia and the week ahead</i><i>. </i><p></p><div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5JYhNw02iRwLSmhQSCw4gOYNiM1zmXEZ-NlYUPRT4dO5Bg9xd8KR9z1XwXXgannkbzHT87vqEBwQM6j4J9E5lvRpHv0X0qS44zlVgpFXI7Qraaxp9UEtonX1J2OWmf0ohWoD-YhwJXaSX9MEzbBBpTu99TbROeN7b5Pm3KzU04YgwzlCzkutCFY0MgCY/s650/cabinets%20of%20death%20exhibition%20landscape2%20small.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="425" data-original-width="650" height="131" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK5JYhNw02iRwLSmhQSCw4gOYNiM1zmXEZ-NlYUPRT4dO5Bg9xd8KR9z1XwXXgannkbzHT87vqEBwQM6j4J9E5lvRpHv0X0qS44zlVgpFXI7Qraaxp9UEtonX1J2OWmf0ohWoD-YhwJXaSX9MEzbBBpTu99TbROeN7b5Pm3KzU04YgwzlCzkutCFY0MgCY/w200-h131/cabinets%20of%20death%20exhibition%20landscape2%20small.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>Now - 18 February; Cabinets of Death: Death Museum and Cocktelarium.

Those events might not be pagan but, as I mention in my book <i><a href="https://amzn.to/47SKoEg" target="_blank">Pagan Portals - Rounding the Wheel of the Year</a>, </i>I'm happy to enjoy most seasonal customs. However, what's really making my heart sing is the sight of more first buds and blossoms as spring flowers return. <p></p><p>Over the past two weeks I've shared photos of <a href="http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2024/02/rounding-year-snowdrops-finally.html" target="_blank">snowdrops</a> just beginning to bud, and now there are little white flowers all over my garden. On Friday I saw daffodils in my local park (pictured left). At the weekend I spotted pink and white blossom appearing on several trees, and today the first primroses flowered in my front garden. You can see a photo of them further down this post. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikttekii9MZOXNdD4R5Pi9kb-Roj-NsZLW4eFBVjFmHTkO0xsCv7haq_SET50i1V7KSMDGdYeXlOnge0ygzYnMwPiT8NfCce42in2Jn4JyqvxaJgYVYi-VrKfJ7N1xR0ZYb1Tp2RN9TZDYhkC-HkMHb-_fTM_1X3EyVmuW9SJ_CrzL0fAlZ2sThOE7oMsW/s3000/20240211_140334.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2087" data-original-width="3000" height="139" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikttekii9MZOXNdD4R5Pi9kb-Roj-NsZLW4eFBVjFmHTkO0xsCv7haq_SET50i1V7KSMDGdYeXlOnge0ygzYnMwPiT8NfCce42in2Jn4JyqvxaJgYVYi-VrKfJ7N1xR0ZYb1Tp2RN9TZDYhkC-HkMHb-_fTM_1X3EyVmuW9SJ_CrzL0fAlZ2sThOE7oMsW/w200-h139/20240211_140334.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>I've also been noticing birds nest-building. A pair of great-tits have been gathering twigs in my front garden. I've been watching them from my study window when I should probably be working. At the weekend, I went away to the coast where I saw a pair of gulls. I took a photo, but they were quite far away so it's not great. According to folklore, birds choose their mates at around the time of Valentine's Day.<p></p><p>I recently started prompts to share seasonal pictures, art, crafts, words and other creativity. I'll continue this over the months ahead. I'd love to encourage readers to record what's happening in nature in various ways including photographs, journalling, drawing or painting and crafting.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRimcqkbPZdaB3yTE4LnmUFvR5sJKC_cHWvUgijXj6fpaxbtLuOE0seX2TCPkpvLh897lWaM9Z-0bdd1FxkQoVvgER_iKy4_bZcJ7rjTnITkI42ecBswjhYcS0azd1n4QZFrCMGDREHu6mK4DO7WgghqfZw4PnsPyxtlmK96fEiH5OEqVfXJUGh8BxMRU/s612/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20new%20cover%20with%20right%20photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="612" data-original-width="397" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHRimcqkbPZdaB3yTE4LnmUFvR5sJKC_cHWvUgijXj6fpaxbtLuOE0seX2TCPkpvLh897lWaM9Z-0bdd1FxkQoVvgER_iKy4_bZcJ7rjTnITkI42ecBswjhYcS0azd1n4QZFrCMGDREHu6mK4DO7WgghqfZw4PnsPyxtlmK96fEiH5OEqVfXJUGh8BxMRU/w130-h200/rounding%20the%20wheel%20of%20the%20year%20new%20cover%20with%20right%20photo.jpg" width="130" /></a></div>Here are ways to share the things you're doing or what you see out and about as the wheel turns:<p></p><p></p><p></p><ul><li>Leave a comment on this post about what you're up to</li><li>Find my prompts to share on my Facebook Page: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/paganportalscandlemagic" target="_blank">Lucya Starza Pagan Portals Author</a></li><li>Share on Instagram or X (formerly Twitter) with the tag #RoundingtheYear</li></ul><p></p><p>My book offers more ways to acknowledge the Wheel of the Year and celebrate the seasons in ritual, magic, folklore and nature.
