So if you don’t drink whiskey and there’s no vege haggis in the house, (well boat in my case!) how else does one celebrate Burns night. Watch Highlander of course! Love Highlander! Completely forgot Sean Connery was in it! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I do miss Scotland and Vege Haggis. I used to get it at the Co op in Lochgilphead when I was staying in Crinan. Ahh the Crinan Canal 😍 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I’ve always had a unexplainable connection to Scotland. As a babe I used to cry at the sound of bagpipes (still do!) and when I very first visited it felt like home. It nearly was home. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Sadly I can’t get to the Crinan canal on my boat without the aid of a truck, crane and a few thousand pounds. I’ve learned though to never say never... Who knows, one day maybe I’ll get Lily Pearl to Scotland! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Anyways, happy Burns night to all my lovely Scottish friends. All hail the Bard! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #poet #burnsnight #highlander #givemevegehaggis #scotlandimissyou #allhailthebard
Another instrument I’d one day like to learn to play.. Neo Celtic Harp ♥️ Great album by Omnia. Thanks @samaurorastarlacey for the recommendation. Love that there’s a song on there called #thefaeryqueen and another called #jennystits 😆 #omnia #paganfolkmusic #neocelticharp

HAIKU : Naked in the cold Appearing dead to the world Passion burns beneath Will passion again see the light of day? If we follow the example of our Oak friend here, one has to lay oneself completely bare first. A shedding of ones old self, of old ways of being, makes room for new buds, new life and new experiences. 🔥 Imbolc will soon be here. The sap will again start to rise. Where do we still need to lay ourselves bare, to risk exposing ourselves and our feelings to the cold? Have we cleared away the old dead wood to make space for passion, our sap, to rise again? 🔥 Oak is representative of the Divine Masculine. Strong. Steady. Brave. Enduring. Willing. Willing to surrender all, the old, the dead, the outgrown, for the promise of a new life. 🔥 It’s very tiny but you can just about see Whiston church in the distance. 🔥 #haiku #poem #poetry #winter #oak #naked #cold #death #rebirth #passion #sap #divinemasculine #newbuds #newlife #imbolcsooncome #whistonchurch #treespirits #treewisdom #dryad
POEM : Inspired by tonight’s sunset 🌄 Seeking out Sunsets and sunrises Seems to soften The soporific Effects of Sadness That insidiously Seeps into ones Senses as one Sees the Sorrows Of the World 🌅 Blessing all those with sadness today in the reemergence of their Joy. Blessed Be 🙏🏼 #poem #poetry #sadness #senses #sorrow #sad #seasonslaffectivedisorder #sunset #sunrise #nature #naturesremedy #naturallight #colourspectrum
Love these ladies @samaurorastarlacey and @angelic_touch_treatments. We’ve been indulging in a little herbal Magick today. 🌲 Did you know, each cup of tea made with pine needles will contain about five times the vitamin C found in lemon juice, or eight times that found in orange juice? 🌲 Pine tea is a natural antioxidant and it tastes pretty good too. Energetically pine is good for cleansing, generally and also for all that is getting in the way of our Abundance. 🌲 Burnt with sandalwood as an incense it is said to create Magickal nights of passion! Pine is associated with the God’s Poseidon and Thor... As my good friends know I have a little Thor “thing” going on (well I did until they cut off his hair! I mean what were they thinking!🤷🏽‍♀️).. I most certainly wouldn’t say no to a Magickal night of passion with Thor, hehe🔥♥️😜 #naturesremedies #hedgewitchery #wisewomen #pine #tea #herbaltea #herbalremedies #cleansing #vitaminc #antioxidants #abundance #passion #thor #yesplease
One day I’d love to learn to play the veena or sitar. Sometimes there are no rational reasons or connection in this life to things our Hearts are drawn to. I was listening to Sitar music the other day to calm my nervous system in the storm and just had this sense of how healing sitar music is and I’d one day like to learn. On Friday at the Bardic trials I meet a guy who plays Sitar and wants to work with Yoga teachers! I’ll keep you posted on any collaborations. It would be amazing to teach with live sitar playing in the background. I love how the Universe responds so quickly! Then I stumbled across this beauty and I’m like yes! One day l will get the chance to play and hopefully find one like this with a Dragon! 🐲 #oneday #antiqueveena #sitar #musicalaspirations #dragons #dragonhead #yoga
I can report... No cold or wet hands or feet today. Just beautiful sunshine, calm, peace, serenity and lots of sparkles on the water 🌞✨ #standuppaddleboarding #redpaddle #winterpaddling #calm #peace #serenity #sunshine #sparkles #riverlife #boatlife #rivergypsy #rivernene #earlsbarton #northampton
Woke up to my first ever proper frosty boat, sparkling in the sunlight! Love days like this where the water is like a mirror, the sun is shining and the sky a vibrant blue. It’s the perfect day for a paddle! Yes your feet and fingers may get a little chilly, but with the sun on your face and warmth of Joy in your Heart, you barely notice. Besides you can warm your feet and hands up after by the fire with a nice cup of hot chocolate. It’s a win win situation 🔥☕️🍫 #frost #sparkles #swans #rivernene #earlsbarton #standuppaddleboarder #supday #clear #bright #calm #sunny #coldfeet #warmheart #getoutside #connect #enjoynature
