There is something about Spring light on a carpet of bluebells, often dappled through the canopy of the trees around them, yet bright and life affirming.

Bluebells are often referred to in British folklore as: Witch's thimble, Fairy flower, Dead Man's bells and Wood bell. A flower of the Otherworld - where the Fae hang their spells. Tread carefully among the woodland sea of bells!

I share some connections in my Substack post I have had this week with bluebells and a little of the folklore and associations with them. They are one of my favourite allies of mid Spring, leading up to Beltaine. They sing out a shift in the journey of the Green Fire.

They teach me about patience with adversity and melting hardship into creativity.
And so much more! There is such a thing as a Bluebell Trance, people stop and stare at carpets of bluebells, softly shifting into the Other, letting go of the human hard gaze, open to enchantment. There is something very inspiring about this....

The post is free. So do hop on over to the Antlered Path substack if you feel moved to. Many bluebell blessings.

Deer Spirit is calling!

I have created three distinctly different short, mindful practices linked with deer spirit and shared them with audio recordings on my Substack today!

Three Sacred Pauses - to support you through a day, or to use in ritual or with the phases of the moon. They can be connected to in so many ways really.

The first sacred pause for example is linked to 'new perspective, refreshing one's spirit, opening to change, looking to the sacred light and dawn'.

In each connection or practice, you invite or connect with an aspect of deer spirit wisdom, this supports your spirit to attune, to trust your intuitive senses, to notice what feels important or key.

Deer spirit has such a strong ability to notice the liminal, the thin places between worlds where it is easier to sense and notice the sacred domain.

So if you feel drawn to the antlered ways, deer spirit and mindful practice, you may find this supportive and inspiring. That is always my aim, along with creating a bit of a safe and gentle sanctuary for people to relax into.

Sending much love and light across the deer trods, deer ones.

Hello Deer Ones.
Blessed Sun Day.

Honouring Hearth and Hedge today in my substack post - linked to our home. Come on a gentle wander through some connections to our hearth and wild edged space outside. I share photos from last Summer and also two videos from this morning!

I share the impact of wild water on our lives here and a blessing to wild water.

The 2nd part will be in May when the Hawthorn blossoms (we grew her from a small cutting!).

The new episode of the Antlered Path is now available to stream.

'The Gifts of Mystery'.

It has been a long time since the previous episode! I had planned to share this ep in late October. But here we are now and it feels good to be back.

The Gifts of Mystery is my take on a few insights linked to the notion of mystery in the spiritual context.

Mystery can be a motivating force for us to seek more from life, from Nature and act as a creative muse too. I share about the connections between curiosity and mystery - because in order to explore aspects of something that feels mysterious one needs curiosity! And an open mind/heart.

Sometimes we will not find resolution or answers, the mystery can remain such for eternity. But when we activate ourselves to embark on a quest, however small, it is a wonderful thing and can lead to such inspiration and feelings of accomplishment.

A sense of mystery is something that helps us to manage our mundane lives.

The motivation for this episode came from a little quest I was on last Autumn, when I was researching the Dorset Ooser, a mysterious horned man mask that used to ‘reside’ in a nearby village. What happened to it, is a mystery. It is this mysterious element to it’s story that absolutely compels me and sets me off on some walks and explorations around the area, making connections and looking beyond the here and now.

I wrote about this on my Substack here. https://antleredpath.substack.com/p/the-dorset-ooser-mask-mystery-and?r=1k4u52

Antlered Foraging - what is this?! Well, it is not the seeking out of actual antlers or the bringing in of physical plant (or other matter) to the home.

This new series of offerings over on Substack is around the idea of how we can forage spiritually and energetically out in natural spaces. How we can grow and heal from the spiritually transmitted plant or animal wisdom we meet on our journeys across the trods. Together with direct and mindful relating with the ecosystem as a whole.

In this early spring post together with the writing, I also offer an audio, video clips and photos that I hope will bring through my recent antlered foraging experiences. With the intention of inspiring, creating sanctuary, providing hope and simply honouring the Nature allies I am so grateful to share space with.

There are some profound insights gained working in this way.

My next post linked to spiritual or energetic foraging will be in mid Spring after the equinox. Each post will include audio and video too. If you feel moved to join me over on Substack I would love to have you as part of the growing community there. If you become a paid subscriber, you will have access to all the extensive and longer posts and short courses too.

Ever grateful for your support. Have a blessed Sunday - be kind to yourself.

"Upon an hille of floures,
Was set this noble goddesse Nature".

In this weekend's substack post I explore aspects of a medieval poem (from which the two lines above are from), the first to reference St Valentine's Day as a day linked to romantic love. The reasons for this I share in the post, but mainly because of the strong references to Nature as Goddess and the many birds that are depicted. Birds are often used in literature and art as symbols for love and for 'relating' or communication between people.

So which poem is it?!

I do also comment on the not so ethical aspects of this day, seeking instead to find the essence of compassionate love - to dig beneath the surface and find a steady and rooted sense of Nature's love. Which is not always an easy one, but then what love is?

Imbolc Blessings.

May your waters be clean, bright and true,
May your hearth be a comfort to you,
May your creativity flow and spiral anew,
May Brigid’s light
gently lift the winter’s brew.
(by H Campbell).

I share a blessing on this week's Antlered Path substack inspired and guided by the White Hind spirit. It is for healing of the land. So that you may speak it, adapt it, share it through the ways.

Why the White Hind spirit? I touch on this in the post and am ever grateful for antlered allies weaving in their light, their strength and vitality to this path.

Blessed Be. )0(.

Sharing insights and experiences linked to pain, illness and the harder parts of a path is not always easy. However pain is universal, it rises and falls - it is part of LIFE. It has a wisdom to it too.

In my Substack post this week I share some creative insights gained from recent illness (still ongoing) in a 9 verse format, which takes the reader through a landscape arising from a deep, damp, hidden hollow.

Inspired by my connections in local hollow ways and hollow spaces. Those eroded channels or sink holes that take the wild pilgrim into the underlying, 'below the surface' energies away from the usual perspectives of horizontal or 'middle world' living.

I find using aspects of outer and inner landscapes (such as trees, rocks and creatures or elements) helpful in conveying emotions and growth. More than metaphors, these natural aspects provide a space between the immediacy of one's lived experience and the wider ecosystem.

Often with health challenges there is a period of deep waiting, sometimes there are no quick fixes. We might wrestle with all sorts of shadows, grief may rise up and out, it is so important to somehow find ways to love oneself through this even more than usual.

I have found it useful to speak to the anxiety, the inflammation, the pounding, whatever it might be, to say 'I see you, what do you need?' We may not have clarity for a while, but we can find ways to make space for compassion, to let go, to move with and through the waves. We are all different and it is so important to follow your intuitive wisdom and reach out, ask for the help you need, even when it may not be clear as to what that is.

Healing requires inward connection, inward listening and attending. It doesn't have to happen alone.

This is a post for those with a paid sub, though the intro is free. My sacred, antlered explorations through writing is part of my work, I am grateful for support - always.

Good morning deer ones.

I have shared the first draft of part 1 of an 'Antlered Myth'. The Ice Flower bone cave.

This is a new style for me, I have written short stories before but this is different.
In it you will find the key to renewal, seers, People with a capital P who are aware of the sacred, who have animist core values and others who are not so kind.

What is the purpose of the Ice Flower? What is the landscape of the bone cave like?

You will need to read the first draft to find out more.

I welcome comments and feedback on the substack post. Take a look and let me know! Part of the post is open to all and part of it requires a paid sub to Antlered Path as this is content that is in addition to my core, free posts. I value all the support I receive.

I do feel we need more stories of ancient earth, of sacred ways, of Antlered Goddess light along the Ways.

Antlered Path - sacred, supportive and nature connected

Life is anything but a straight line from A to B. We spiral in and out of experiences and through cycles. The more we pay attention to Nature, our instincts and spiritual guidance, the more we feel the dance of the spiral. The flexibility of shifting and letting go, starting afresh, opening up to our potential.

Healing can happen in so many different places and sometimes we are not even aware of it. I seek to connect you to your authentic self with Nature very close by. I offer Nature based therapy in natural settings and also guided nature meditations for those who cannot meet me out in the landscape. A session will focus on the client’s needs and will always involve a consultation prior to any nature connected work. Mindful meditation, spiritual coaching, walking, attuning, ritual and sacred work are just some of the skills I bring to a session.

Find a stronger clarity, sense of direction or find guidance to a specific issue. Take the issue to the session, work with it in Nature, you will find answers start to come. Instincts will flow easier and your energy will lighten and improve. Your vitality will be enhanced and your sense of motivation will be more attuned to your true rhythm.

I offer Tarot and Oracle consultations with a Nature focus. Helping you to connect to your path with a spiritual awareness. I offer these from a distance (via email mostly and also Skype). I also offer consultations at a local healing garden near Yeovil, the Potting Shed. Please ask for more information.
