This Saturday is the Elder Dark Moon. As the Elder Moon slips into darkness, we are invited into the deepest stillness of the year.

This Dark Moon arrives on the threshold of the Winter Solstice on Sunday - the turning point where the year holds its breath and the light begins its slow return. Together, they call us inward, into rest, reflection, and deep listening.

The Elder Moon carries ancient wisdom - a time to lay down what has been carried too long, to honour your weariness, your learning, and the cycles now complete. Nothing needs to be forced or fixed here.

In the hush before rebirth, trust the dark soil. Beneath the stillness, new seeds are already dreaming, quietly preparing for the returning light.

Sit softly.
Breathe deeply.
The wheel is turning - and the light will return, when it is ready.

As the longest night approaches, Yule invites us to slow down.

In a world that asks us to be busy, cheerful and switched on throughout December, the Winter Solstice offers a very different wisdom - rest, reflection, and trust in the returning light.

I’ve just shared a new blog post exploring the deeper meaning of Yule - the sacred pause of midwinter, the gift of darkness, evergreen symbolism, and how we can honour the Solstice in a modern world without losing ourselves to the rush.

If you’re feeling called to soften, to turn inward, or to remember that light always returns - this one is for you.

May your hearth be warm, your nights gentle, and your inner flame quietly rekindled.

Always a great day helping on one of these workshops 🥰

On Sunday we saw 8 wonderful new drums join the Caer Corhrain Herd.

A special drum birthing session was organised for some of this years Advanced Shamanic Pathways group with everyone bringing a gentle 12” Deer on Willow ash into being. It was a day full of reconnection, laughter and family.
