Listen to the wise kind ancestors! So glad to be offering these 3 day Ancestral Lineage Healing intensives in Co. Clare 25-27 Sept with Catherine Dunne and in Bristol in April 2027 with Elsa Rueff. More info: www.kamalamani.co.uk/events Feel free to get in touch with any questions!

I know it’s over commercialised couple nonsense, but I’m still secretly glad there’s today. Happy day of love - lovers of kindness, sky, truth, rescued pets, sunsets on a hot day, sunrise after freezing nights, chocolate, cease fires, knitting - as well as beloveds. Have a lover-y day - year even 😘

Terrible photo, atmospheric moment. What a rare joy it’s been to be in blue skies, making it possibly to see this pearly beauty waxing and filling 🙏🏼 #wolfmoon

Sid meet sea, sea meet sid. A whole lot calmer than last night’s roaring waves.

A bit of Tudoring in the rain. Thanks very much Little Moreton Hall folk, this treasure of a place is as warm, welcoming and fabulously wonky as 30 years ago ♥️👍🏼

Journalists will host a vigil in #Bristol this Friday for all our comrades killed by Israel since October 2023. All our welcome to join us: 📍5:15pm @ Cascade Steps, Broad Quay, Bristol #StopKillingJournalists

Thanks @Bristolcathedral fab, unique, dancing in my favourite sacred Bristol spots. Wondered a few times what my 8x great granddad, memorialised there made of it all. Peak moment was indie-ing to the Stone Roses, surrounded by folk belting out Wham! 😂

A (rare) bit of blogging and mandala-making, celebrating Ancestral Lineage Healing and its fruitfulness. Belated Happy Lammas all northern hemisphere folk! www.kamalamani.co.uk/post/celebra...

Edging into mellow fruitfulness season here 🙏🏼

Garden flowers for the beloved wise ancestors 🙏🏼 These are also for everyone in the world today and tomorrow who can’t bury their dead, can’t take them flowers, cos they’re in the midst of famine, genocide or they’re en route to a better life. May the ancestors surround them with love and strength.

Absolutely dystopian juxtaposition from the Guardian front page. Difficult to understand how anyone of decency and conscience can defend this government at this point. Just sheer moral degeneracy to arm a state that does this and arrest people for objecting. Wtf are we doing as a country?

Joanna Macy 1929 - 2025. Hats off to you and your might life - thanks 🙏🏼 Stepped outside and a newly popped hibiscus flower, all rain-bejewelled and gorgeous, was swaying in the breeze. Reminds me of your life. May we all keep on keeping on, practising with and for all that lives ❤️🌍💪🏼

Stunning buck moon, all salmon pink and huge against the deep lilac (still very warm) Bristol sky. Everything’s miraculous for a minute.

Sunflower watching the waxing buck moon rise 🌻🙏🏼

Early morning surprise visitor. Cat meet Buddha, Buddha meet cat.

Wonderful fox & flower art from @mariastrutz.bsky.social it looks like it’s going to be a very good foxglove year

Sunday kitchen sink (non) drama. The kitchen homes the Buddha, the Buddha homes the Malabar spinach, the Malabar spinach homes the aphids 🙏🏼

Portcullis panic. Hoping and praying the gatekeepers a) can tell we’re local plebs, rather than rebel noblesses b) have run out of hot oil 🙃

First light garden-pottering (miraculously, the mollusc kin, partying in last night’s welcome rain, didn’t eat all the plant babies 😅)

Please don't forget to vote today. And #Bristol : we cannot let Arron Banks get any power and become our West of England Mayor. Vote and remind all your friends and everyone you speak to. Before the polls opened, results were predicted to be close.

This book baby is (unbelievably) 9 today. Thx to all of you who’ve had a read. Thx to those of you who’ve taken time to let me know it’s been helpful - which has (to my inclusive gladness), included parents and those who are childless through circumstance, loss and happenstance rather than choice.

Seeing Arron Banks (standing as the Reform mayor) in Bristol with a bazooka (complete with US flag) “trained on the Labour, Green and Lib Dem goons that have wrecked Bristol," sharpens the mind.

The horrors of war are on our screens daily, yet "war readiness" remains the #1 "industry" on the planet, with the US not only the major producer of weapons but also the major exporter. "At 43%, its share of global arms exports is more than four times as much as the next-largest exporter, France.”

The pink moon arrived with colourful aplomb 🤩

A twilight ancestral walkabout last night in Bristol, retracing the steps of my great granddad, working as a wood carving apprentice (on the far right of this photo.) The love of wood crafting carried on through my Nana and Dad… Thanks for your life on your b’day Harry, 109 years ago today 🙏🏼 🥰

For all the Mums - past, present, future 🙏🏼 thank you

‘Eldering in a Time of Collapse’, Sat 29 March 2025, 8pm GMT (Free, live & recorded). Looking forward to this conversation very much this Saturday - thx for inviting me back @gatewaywomen.bsky.social More info and registration below: gateway-women.com/collapse/

Happy 2nd b’day to ‘Holding the Hope,’ in which I wrote ‘Hoping Hope, Letting Go’. The dedication is more relevant then ever:

Blossom Fox spring has arrived #FoxFriday 🤍🐾🦊

I love the NHS too. Hats off to awesome heath care workers 🙏🏼 Received calming news after two nail biting weeks. All love to the folk I met today who didn’t get calm-making results - the fragility and beauty and sorrow of it all. (And thx to Penfolds cafe for the lush cuppa after days of weird food)

As we wake up to the news of another 200 Palestinians (minimum) killed by Israeli air strikes in a clear end to the ceasefire… Take note of this statement via The Guardian:

Lots of opinion here. No evidence offered. Alarming blindness on bats, other wildlife, science, environment. And it is contradictory, saying they want to reduce regulation/red tape but then saying they want to delegate it in more ways, so industry marks its own homework 😳 www.gov.uk/government/p...

Labour say slashing £5-6B from disabled people is ‘tough but necessary.’ It’s not. It’s a choice. The choice to protect corporations over disabled people. The choice to sacrifice lives instead of raising taxes on the wealthy. They want to do this in our name. Not in my name.

Morning beautiful river Avon and magnificent gorge ☀️

The vividness before yesterday’s worm moon rise

"It wasn’t morbidity that drew me to that dangerous place but rather the pleasure of abandoning myself to something vastly beyond my control. I was pulled to the Ouse as a magnet is pulled to metal," #animism #NewAni

25 years ago today - meeting this little Bobby Dazzler for the first time and becoming an auntie. One of the best things 🤩

A spot of daffodil worship 💛

Celebrating international womens’ day remembering the ancestral grandmothers. Remembering the creativity of their earthly lives through creating 🙏🏼

Goat willow exuberance on the ancient allotment track ☀️💛☀️

Moonlit catkins, springy night

May this be way more than a useful photo opportunity and the chance to get some diplomatic brownie points. May it be in memory of the thousands of civilians who’ve died, the pets, animals, land, desecrated by war. Please, really 🤔
