Once Upon a Stitch….
Soulskin spills across my lap and trails down towards the floorboards, the soft shuffle and whisper of my fat bamboo needles dancing through the yarn accompanying its descent. The rhythm lulls me into a state of peace – soothing, settling, calming. Knitting these sacred garments, I feel whole, I feel full and I feel love. I don’t remember learning to knit. In my family it is passed on through mothers & grandmothers. My daughter knits beautifully. My 5 year-old niece can even produce a passable scarf for her dollies. I have a beautiful memory, from when I was very little, of sitting on the back lawn at Grandma and Grandad’s…

Coming Out of the Woo Woo Closet
Last year I signed up to Jamie Ridler’s Circe’s Circle – it was 10 weeks of gentle but deep transformation, at the end of which I climbed out of the woo woo closet and into the open. Now, I’ve done a lot of scary things in my life, and believe me when I tell you, my lovely, but that was right up there with the scariest! What on earth would everyone think of me if I told them I did intuitive readings for friends, offered angel healings to those in need and regularly saw orbs of light dancing around the passengers on the lower decks of LRT buses!? And while…

Flying Lessons
The Swans Something draws me to the window and I stand there, gazing out at the bluegray horizon where the water meets the sky. I am only standing there a few moments when four swans, the wide span of their wings, the long lines of their outstretched necks, fly noiselessly only a few feet from where I stand. My breath catches in wonder, and my skin tingles. They fly on to the smallest of the three lochs on the wasteland in front of my apartment, spiralling in towards the water, before gracefully settling upon its surface. The ripples cast across the calm waters smooths almost instantly, and there they are:…

Looking for Some Goddess Guidance?
Want to extend an invitation to you, my lovely. Last week, as part of my launch of Virgins & Lovers: Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Goddess, I gave free mini goddess readings on my FaceBook page. The response to the readings just blew me away. So I’ve decided to make the readings a regular feature. The way it’s going to work is this… For £6 ($10 approx) per month you will get access to a super special closed group on FaceBook. Here you’ll be able to request mini readings, discuss the results with me and the others in the group, and you’ll get a (big!) discount on more extensive, private…

My Birthday Gift For You
This is the moment that the sun rose up from behind the horizon, and the first rays lit up my 33rd birthday. I can’t really explain why, but today feels really important. More important, perhaps than other birthdays. Almost like it’s loaded with a significance that’s beyond my understanding. That’s why I got up early and watched the sun slip into the day. It’s also why I want to give you a gift. I’ve been sharing all last week excerpts from the 6 goddess stories from my new more-than-just-a-book Virgins & Lovers: Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Goddess. However, another major component of this product is the visualisations. So, I…
