“One day sleep will be a haven, not a heartbreak.”

Three books by Lorna Smithers now in print again!

Mugwort grows here in the summer months, ragwort and wild rose too, the bare skeletons of the latter reach up from the winter grass, the hips bright red like oxgenated blood. The scent of fox urine fills my nose as I enter into the dog foxes territory. It feels like I’ve come home.

The music and spirit of Rúnahild

The sixth edition of the Pagan Music List.

The last entity to have this much control over human meaning was the Catholic Church

In the Norse myths the great ash, Yggdrasil, is the World Tree. Its image is one of ecological integrity. Ash dieback, a disease of the European ash, has both profound ecological and mythological implications.

“After a year in which the whole world was called to action and solidarity due to environmental urgencies, racial conflicts and one great health crisis, the new chapters of Kropotkin’s Mutual Aid could start to be written.”
