🌿🦉Tarot of the Woodland Wardens 🦉🌿

Sunshine & rain over the last few days so Tarot readings have been outside and on board too.

It has been busy and so lovely to meet new people and see old friends again.

This fabulous deck has been popular...

Flowers and creatures of woodland, skies, mountains, deserts and rivers share their wisdom and bring us the history, mythology and folklore required to give deep spiritual meaning to Tarot readings.

This deck is beautifully illustrated with colourful details. Each card is inspired by the Rider-Waite Smith deck, the human figures replaced by woodland creatures.

💕 Happy Anniversary Becky & Pooky! 💕

I conducted this fabulous Festival Handfasting 5 years ago. A brilliant weekend of camping, music, a chip van AND an ice cream van. So much fun and laughter!

Loved it! Have a wonderful anniversary guys. 💕💙💜

A friendly, relaxed wedding with a festival vibe. Everyone had a brilliant weekend. Caravans, tents, dogs, fires, laughter, dancing and wonderful food.

Congratulations and thank you to Becky, Graham and all your friends and family for an awesome day.

Rain!!! Yay! 😊🌧 With a little bit of thunder & lightning thrown in too. ⚡️⛈️

So, my Tarot readings were aboard my narrowboat today, supervised by Piggy 🐷

We need lots and lots of rain. A few of the canal locks have been closed to save water as reservoirs are extremely low. The land desperately needs it too.

More rain please then all the boats can get moving again! 🌧🌧🌧🌧🌧

🧸Happy Naming Day Anniversary Little Bear!🧸

(I can't believe this was 4 years ago.)

This is my Grandson's Naming Ceremony which I conducted in his back garden.

His big brother, my witch's apprentice, was extremely helpful.

🚜 Little Bear saw fit to drive his tractor into the middle of the circle towards the end which was hilarious, it was his day after all! 🧸💛🤍💙

I had the great honour of conducting my Grandson's Naming Ceremony. I was assisted by Bumblebee, Little Bear's big brother, who did a fantastic job. I conducted Bumblebee's Ceremony 5 years ago.

I perform lots of these Naming Ceremonies in the parents' gardens. It makes their occasion relaxed and stress free. Just bring a bottle and cake!

🌕🌾Grain Full Moon🌾🌕

Tomorrow's Full Moon (05.18 in London) is the Grain Moon. Also known as the Corn Moon, Fruit Moon, and Barley Moon, all inspired by various crops that are harvested in August.

It is also called the Lightning moon due to the summer thunderstorms which are badly needed here, bring it on! ⛈️⚡️⛈️

Native Americans call it the Sturgeon Moon because of the great number of this huge freshwater fish that are found in lakes and rivers in North America at this time of year. These fish were essential for Native American tribes and is the oldest and largest native species in the Great Lakes.

My berries cluster black and thick
For rich and poor alike to pick.

I’ll tear your dress, and cling, and tease,
And scratch your hands and arms and knees.

I’ll stain your fingers and your face,
And then I’ll laugh at your disgrace.

But when the bramble-jelly’s made,
You’ll find your trouble well repaid.

🍷Blackberry Vodka, or Gin, or Brandy.....

You will need,

Loads of blackberries
A few tablespoons of sugar
Your booze of choice – vodka, gin, brandy, etc...

Take a clean jar and add a handful of berries. Smash them up with a wooden spoon, and then cover them with a tablespoon of sugar. Repeat until the jar is about half full.

Cover the jar and let it sit for about half an hour.

Cover the smashed up berries with your choice of booze, put the lid on, and shake it until the sugar is dissolved.

Close your jar, label it and put it aside for at least a month. Or a fortnight. Ok, a week. 😁

Use a funnel with a strainer and cheesecloth to strain out the berries and seeds.
