As mentioned before Totem animals can be not only those creatures that we know now upon the Earth but other creatures too. Creatures that we might consider to be nothing more than legend and fantasy but which are in truth creatures of the elemental realm. Pegasus is one such creature – born of the blood of the Gorgon Medusa and…

The Swallow
It has long been known that birds follow an invisible path which only they can see and sense – not just the thermal currents of the air but also the electromagnetic pathways of our world that they use to navigate from place to place. But what if there were other pathways that the birds could see – that the majority…
The Starling
Totem Animals are featured in many different cultures – in many different ways, from the Inuit community to the Native American, Hawaiian and Aborigine. Some focus only on those creatures seen in nature whilst others acknowledge too those “fabulous beasts” long since absent from this plane of existence which we – here in the West – might call the creatures…
The Strong Wee Folk
Ask someone in the street about the Fairy folk and they will talk to you about Tinkerbell and Flower Fairies! Tutu wearing wide eyes girls with dragonfly wings and wands with stars on the end. This is the image we have been sold, a relatively modern day fairy folk, largely disempowered from their origins in the folk law of our…
Fury Dust
In Peter Pan it’s Fairy Dust that makes the Darling children fly (that and a happy thought) but real Fairy Dust – and such thing does indeed exist – doesn’t have quite the same effect but it does do something similar. For the Fairy Folk have the power to lift the spirits of those who have fallen – emotionally –…
All Around Us
Once upon the fairy folk lived all around us, dancing with us side by side under the light of the full moon, sharing their sacred groves. Once upon a time the Fairy Folk aided us in our endeavours, invited into our homes, tending our gardens, milking our cows. Then the Christian folk came – seeing the Fairy Folk as demons…
BEWARE THE TRICKSTER!
The Trickster is a powerful archetypal figure found in many different cultures around the world from the Norse Loki – god of lies and flies made into a bit of an anti hero by recent Marvel Film – to the Native American Coyote – transformed into Wiley Coyote of the Road Runner cartoons – to the Devil of Christian Fables.…
The Wee Folk
It’s an odd thing to think of elementals as being seasonal but in truth – in a way – they are! As the energy of plants and trees recedes into the Earth as the warmth of Summer fades to the harsh coldness of Winter so too do the elementals leave our land en large and return home to the Other…
Bless This House
In these uncertain times our home becomes our sacred space in which we can escape the madness of the outside world and find some well earned peace. However in these crazy times of ours even that is under threat – whether it be from the intrusive news media that attacks us at every turn from radio, tv and mobile phone…
The Power of the Soul
The Soul – our Higher Self – the majority of our spiritual being that remains in the “other world” watching over us and guiding us throughout our incarnations is often massively under estimated and under valued. Many would rather turn to their guides or guardian angel rather than their Soul for guidance or healing – believing that these external sources…
