The modern world will tell you that mermaids and fae folk only live in children's story books. Shrunk down to tiny bite-sized beings with glittery wings, a trickster's riddle, or a cautionary tale to warn us off becoming too wild. But what if there is another layer — a layer of this that we have forgotten. A layer of expansion and existence that we have shrunk down along with them.

This is the spot we get to play in. Not for pretend — for real.

The modern world will tell you that mermaids and fae folk only live in children's storybooks. Shrunk down to tiny bite-sized beings with glittery wings, a trickster's riddle, or a cautionary tale to warn us off becoming too wild. But what if there is another layer — a layer of this that we have forgotten. A layer of expansion and existence that we have shrunk down along with them.

That is why the pathways here are offered in audio — because this is an ancient aural tradition. Long before the written word, wisdom moved through sound. Through the voice of the bard, the song of the land, the story carried on breath from one generation to the next. These recordings are made to be taken with you — walked into the landscape, listened to at the edge of the tide, carried into the woods or across the moor. Downloaded and held in your pocket like a charm. The bardic frequency is alive in all of it.

Do not be fooled into thinking this is for the faint-hearted. We so often mistake whimsy for weakness. Here, we explore forgotten paths and ancient ways of living. They are often deep and usually begin in the forgotten darkness, but they are always real. And they are waiting.

There is a flurry of electricity running both within the land and within my mind; seeds are planted as the seasons change. Often, we do not always know the full extent of the portal we are stepping into. But we do always have a title and an overview.

The wheel turns whether we are paying attention or not. The Spindle Year is an invitation to pay attention — to follow the thread of each season with intention, curiosity and your hands in the soil. A full year of myth, medicine and meaning woven around the turning of the wheel. Not a course you complete. A practice you live.

Your own wheel of the year. Spun from the inside out. More details coming soon. Join the web to hear first.

The wild woods are calling again. This time we step off the path entirely — baskets in hand, cloaks pulled close, foraging for what has been forgotten. Another brooch for the cloak. Another layer of the old knowing recovered from the undergrowth. If you have ever felt the pull of the dark trees at the edge of the road, if you have always suspected that Red Riding Hood knew exactly what she was doing — this one is for you.

When the dark comes early and the world draws inward, we gather around the fire. Ember Tales is a winter audio bundle — a small collection of fireside stories to carry you through the longest nights. Stories that crackle. Stories that hold. The kind that have been told in the dark since before anyone thought to write them down. Pour something warm. Pull the blanket close. Let the telling begin.
