I wonder at the resonance of snow.

We have been adorned with a heavy dusting of the peaceful substance here in Suffolk, and this morning as I trudged the frosted landscapes, I felt the snow connect me with those who have walked these lands before me in a way that felt so very real. Snow is, after all, a transient reweaving and re-patterning of water, itself a substance of memory, of crystalline intelligence. Frost, snow, and ice draw us back to a time when others moved through their lives across these same lands, when these very structures of water held the lives of other beings.

And here, in the whitened silence, I wonder, at the physical form of this substance, at its angles and intricacies, at its paradoxical ability to be both reflective and absorbing. How it so beautifully muffles the low buzz-hum of technology, allowing us to feel back to a time when there was far more silence, and far less buzzing. Perhaps that temporal connection held within this transient landscape takes us back to a time of less electromagnetic noise in the air. Perhaps that is why we feel such peace and silence in the snow, the rare and magical substance which envelops us all in a timeless sense and sound of silence.

There’s a softness in not knowing; a softness in the mystery; a softness and a surrender in submitting to the swirling, whirling wonder of a place of uncertainty. The lofty questions do not keen for answers. They keen for deeper questions, sinking into the sense of mysteries, knowing paradox. The best questions are answered by an understanding that world-shifting wonder is found within the not knowing.

It is reflected in this soft sunrise of snow. The softened skies holding the hardened land as it stops, but still the life within is in rapturous living slowness.

The land seeks no answer. The land simply is, in the still-living swirling coldness of wonder.

On spaces and transformations. On wishes.

It was a strange year, 2025. A year of rupture and renewal, of new beginnings, letting go of old dreams and allowing space for even older ones to surface and flourish in the new light of transformation.

I have been taking a break from the online world this winter, and it has been such a welcome relief from the burdens of the modern world. Burdens which we were never built to carry the weight of. Burdens which cloud our senses and dull our instincts. The more time I spend away the clearer I become. The more time I spend with the beings of the real, natural world, the more attuned I become.

The fire has been a faithful and constant companion in these dark months, and as the temperature dropped further in the last few days, she has unfurled herself, along with the log pile, into the central being of reverence in my heart(h). It is no coincidence that heart and hearth are so close to each other, warming, fire-filled, central, uplifting, capable of both destruction and transformation in all ways.

And so I honour the fire, my fire, my heart, and my hearth, and I give thanks and send wishes up in smoke. Wishes for a future of more resonance for all beings. Wishes for more community and more connection. Wishes for the reweaving of the way we, as a human people, live upon this sacred Earth.

Known as the herb of dreams and visions, Mugwort invites us to remember and reconnect with the land, our ancestors, and the wild uncolonised depths of ourselves.

For much of human history she has opened pathways between worlds, guiding seekers into that mystical in-between where land, body, and spirit intertwine.

Mugwort’s voice calls to those ready to walk the old paths of freedom.

This journey invites you to reclaim forgotten wisdom, connect with land and ancestors, and embody a new way of being rooted in the Earth.

I am extending the Mugwort course offer until the Yuletide season is over. So the discount will be active until January 1st.

Some questions I have been asked;

The course is entirely self-paced and you will have lifetime access to all course materials.

Everything is pre-recorded so you do not need to be anywhere at any particular time.

You do not need physical mugwort to take part (unless you want to).

If you have any questions I am here for support.

Light a fire today.

Claim your sovereign space, fill up the world with your resonant inner self, stand with the forces of good.

Cleanse your house, sweep, burn herbs, let the air flow through.

Align with nature, offer your allegiance.

Sink into the germination of the rich darkness.

The Earth is in her dreaming time.

We can dream a new-old dream with her.

Blessed solstice.

The misty sunrise this morning.
Winter solstice eve.

A time to honour the darkness which is the beginning of all things. We are deep in the womb of the Earth now. If you need me, I’ll be inside the dark Earth dreaming.

May the midwinter darkness be rich and fertile with all that we will become, with nature, as nature. The seeds of the new ways are held within this darkness. We can hold them close as we love the world as it is, so it can be cradled as it transforms into something far more resonant than we can even imagine. Our visions of connection are fecund and filled with potential. The forces of nature are far more powerful than any systems which sit atop false thrones.

Remember.

A blessed solstice eve.

Mugwort has long been known as a bridge between worlds, a sacred plant being of hedgerow and meadow who carries the power of dream, vision, and the resonance of freedom. She is an opener of doors, a guardian of thresholds, a holder of ancient wisdom, and a key to unlocking who we truly are beyond the confines of our conditioning.

If you are ready to step into the old ways, to remember the language of the earth, I invite you to join me for Mugwort Moon Matriarch, a 12-week self-paced online journey into plant-spirit communication.

Between now and the solstice, I’m offering a 25% discount on this course. It is the perfect companion to this time of resonance and reflection. See links, comment Mugwort, or send me a DM and I will send you the details.

This is the season of palpable magic.

The time when the wonder-filled knowings of children carry us into a place of twinkling starlight and the veil of a dead culture slips away for just a moment.

Magic as naturally understood by children (and some adults) is not a belief, but an understanding, a way of being and seeing in the multidimensional realms of consciousness and existence.

May the magic of the season of light and darkness infuse your celebrations as we approach midwinter. Remembering always that the darkness gives birth to the light, and without it we are not whole.

The Apothecary is open for Yuletide gifts until the 16th, all orders need to be in by then. Until midnight tomorrow you can take 25% off using code ‘YULE’

If you would like to dive deep into the darkness, I have two courses (one free, one not) which will accompany you as you descend into the Earth.

14/12/2025

Your body is the Earth, your foundation, your support, the vessel of your vibrant soul.

You are the Earth walking around in human form.

Your body is sacred, just as the Earth is sacred.

You are nature.

You are sacred.

You are magic.

Sink into that knowing.

Remember.

Remember.

Remember.

The season of palpable magic is upon us. Let us fall into arms of that magic, the lights, the darkness, the celebration. Let us remember who we are away from the culture of excess and extraction.

Blessings of the season.

The apothecary is open until the 16th. All gift orders need to be in by then at the absolute latest.

Remember that I have two courses to help you bide the long darkness, comment, DM, or see links for details.

The land taught us our rituals and practices once before, and it can and will teach us again.

Often those of us in these lands, and I speak of specifically of Britain here, of the land of England, often we feel disconnected from our roots, from our ancient practices, from our indigenous ways of being.

And we can see this as the great loss that it is, and we can grieve that loss. But it is also an opportunity to return to the rituals and practices that bubble straight up from the earth, to return to the land, and ask her to guide us. To return to the spirits of land, sea, sky, of rock, of plant, of animal, and to give offerings and ask for guidance of how we return into a place of resonance and connection.

So let us grieve all that we have lost, all that has been taken from us, the severance, the disconnection, the loss, but let us also remember we now are in the time of the great remembering, where we go back to the land and ask that the original wisdom is returned to us. So we can honour earth once again, so we can return into a place of resonance.

And once that place is reached, the structures which have controlled, severed and injured us and our connections will naturally crumble, for they are no match for the forces of nature.
