What seems like a long, long time ago Halloween was a very different affair, in South Yorkshire – where I was raised – it largely consisted of a turnip lantern in the window sill and a VERY occasional fancy dress party. Trick or treaters not reaching South Yorkshire for another good 5 years or so! Aged 16 I was just…
So its the 1st of November and (energetically speaking) the first day of a brand new year! Granted the full energy of the new year won’t flood into our world until the 1st of January – when the collective consciousness – accepting that this is the “true” new year will make it so but still … from this date on…
So … we have a general election scheduled for the 12th of December … the 12th of December!!! the 12th of the 12th on a 12 year – 2+0+1+9 = 12!!!! Interesting! This year has been has been a special year – one in which we were guided not to reduce the 12 to a three (1+2=3) as we might…
Our world is in need of healing – this much surely is clear – whether you believe in climate change (and in my opinion who with a brain wouldn’t) or whether your concern lies more with pollution – energetic (Wifi, 5G etc) or pharmaceutical (pesticides and toxic waste) – our world is in need!

In America it is still considered bad luck for a Black Cat to cross your path – a superstition…

It was autumn and the tree’s leaves were starting to tumble to the ground, the tree asked me why human beings had such difficult times letting go of the things they no longer needed. I explained that many humans were…
As we approach Samhein (Halloween to most) the veil between the world of the living and the dead becomes thin – as the energy of the “old year” passes and the energy of the “new year” rushes in. The thinning of the veil is not a sudden thing but a gradual shift – just as the exchange of yearly energy…
All this week I am going to be blogging about my holiday adventures! Don’t get too excited – this year (partly due to finances and partly due to leaving things last minute) we decided on a “staycation” and holidayed at home. Rearranging ones wardrobe and tackling a mountain of ironing looming large in the airing cupboard may not be everyones…
There is no denying it – there is a slight sense of Autumn in the air! An early morning nip of cold, a sudden dimming of the light at the end of the day, a diminishment of green as if the colour were already beginning to drain from the trees and grasses. For those of us who loathe the unrelenting…
