So ordinary, in fact, that my discovery of this was nothing short of a revelation. The OED describes ‘ordinary’ as: “With no special or distinctive features; normal.” Normal! Quite right, too. Being ordinary is normal. None of us is more special than another person. None of us is more distinctive, nor more worthy, nor more …
As we approach the beginning of the active year which, in the old Celtic calendar, is called Imbolc (pr. Im’olc), our thoughts turn to what we would like to achieve. This is the time to sow the seeds that we will nurture through Spring and Summer in the hope of reaping a harvest come Autumn. …
As the sun set over the hills at the Winter Solstice, I offered up a prayer to Spirit: that when the sun returns to this place again, I will be able to look back upon a year that will have seen an amazing awakening in humankind. I know I am not alone in this prayer …

They provide a good blend of scientific and spiritual thinking. It kicks off with Bruce Lipton who, in my opinion, is always worth a listen. He says, “When the conscious mind is engaged …
It is said that the veil is thin at Samhain. The veil between the living and the dead. I ponder this veil. Of what is it woven? For what reason was it hung? And by whom? Is it for the protection of the living or the dead? And what is the land of the dead? …
I have an abundance of hips and haws; columns of ivy flowers buzzing with bees. I have paper bags marked up with Tagetes, Sweet Pea, Nasturtium, Cosmos; all collected from this year’s crop.
