They say at the end of a rainbow, in the mystical land of JD Sports, lies a pot of Gold. But in actual fact, its not a pot gold...its a pigeon 😂🐦 Just goes to show pigeons are magical as f#%k 😆 #witchsky #pagansky #birdsky #rainbow #pigeon

Today marks the feast of Mary Magdalene, a woman who is the embodiment of hope, devotion, love & empowerment. Her Church⛪️, built upon the site of the 1403 battle of Shrewsbury, stands as a place of silent, melancholic commemoration for the 1,600 people buried there💀. #folkloresky #historysky

It was wonderful to be able to visit Bees: a story of survival exhibition in Liverpool🐝. Such an eye opening experience to the phenomenal lives of these tiny miracle workers, their vital importance within the ecosystem and their reminder of both the transcience and Interconnectedness of all life🍯

My home sickness is strong today🥺. I crave the feeling of the sun beaming down on me as I frolick amongst castle ruins, tracing stories & echoes of bygone times wedged between every crack & crevice. Hopefully I'll be able to answer the call of home soon❤️ #castlesky #medievalsky

It was so wonderful to speak with seeking numina all about sacred landscapes 😍 we covered so many fascinating topics including the river Severn and the presiding Goddess. Queerness as well as Welsh and Geeek mythology 🩵 youtu.be/Z7SWPlSU1DQ?... #witchsky #pagansky ##folkloresky #goddesssky

Visiting Kernow(Cornwall) i got the chance to learn about the regions folk magic 😍, with my favourite being the Kolon Vor / Sea heart 🩵. Though they drift ashore from places like the Caribbean and South Africa, these are used as good luck charms and to help ease childbirth 👶 #witchsky #folkloresky

Officially 27 today 🥳🎊🎂🎈 farewell to my years of being a twink 😂😂

Billy Hobbys well in Chester is reputed to be the home of a local Hobgoblin🧚‍♀️ & was famously used by single women to wish for a husband. It is still used today for those hoping to have their wishes granted. Last year people wished for tickets for Taylor Swift & ....um ....😺😂 #witchsky #folkloresky

Say it with me: "Everyone deserves a little sweet treat" 💅☕️

Shropshire is filled with apparitions who, from time to time, reside amongst the living👻. On Selattyn hill folks have spotted tall human figures adorned in white hoods. They are believed to guard the speculated tomb of Gwen, a 6th century Welsh Prince & son of Llywarch Hen🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. #witchsky #paranormalsky

So amazing to be in the presence of a white deer today🦌. Across Celtic Myth & Arthurian legend they are seen as messengers from the Otherworld; signifying great physical or spiritual change whilst captivating the hearts of all as a symbol of sovereignty. #witchsky #pagansky #folkloresky #celticsky

A handy way to protect your house from malevolent forces is to use threshold patterns. In the Welsh Marches a poultice was created with Oak, Dock & sometimes Elder leaves🍃 which would then be used to draw interlacing circles or crosses upon the threshold🚪.This would then act as a barrier #witchsky

Ive always been a fan of @cottontailandwhiskers.com patterns; after reading up on Owl folklore I had to make this shawl for myself 🦉. Im so happy i managed to get it ready for the Summer Solstice ritual at Bryn Celli Ddu. Wearing it whilst invoking Blodeuwedd was such a fab experience☀️🌳 #witchsky

Bendithion Alban Hefin i chi bawb / A blessed Summer solstice to you all ☀️🌻🌄 This morning I had the honour of participating in the Urdd Derwyddon Môn - Anglesey Druid Order solstice ritual, invoking the realm of land & its Deities as well as Mabon, one of the three Lords of light, all in Cymraeg🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.

Midsummer/ Gwyl Ifan Ganol Haf is approaching 🌻☀️✨️. One of my favourite things to do is watch Chesters Midsummer parade, a festival that has stood the test of time for well over 500 years & celebrates the beautiful traditions, mythical characters & history of the place. #witchsky #pagansky #folklore

Pure happiness is having a bee land on your hand and appreciating the possibility that she might have mistaken you for a flower 😍😭🐝🌸 I could watch them for hours #beesky #bee

Happy Friday 13th everyone😍. Today is considered to be one of misfortune & superstition in Welsh Marches belief due to the combination of beliefs surrounding Friday & 13. ⬇️ #folklore #witchsky #pagansky

The Welsh Marches are filled with stories of dragons including the mighty dragon of Mordiford 🐲 No one dared fight it until a criminal hid in a cider barrel by the river Lugg & shot it in the heart with an arrow. But in its short time the dragon never forgot Mauds affection 💚 #witchsky #folklore

More photos from North Wales Paganfest where I gave a talk on River Dragons & their mystical legacy within Britains waterscapes 🐲🌊. Usually i would have a fancy bowl to store any water i use for workshops but I ran out of time & Improvised with a Pyrex jug ...where there's a witch there's a way 😂
