Hug Trees and Read Stuff
I've been working with Aengus Óg over the past few seasons. Romance has been a driving force in my life for as long as I can remember, so I figure aligning myself with the love god of my ancestors is wise

Smells like Saint Augustine. Excellent!

That would make for an astounding incense for Bealtaine

Struggle is merely a declaration of potential.

Struggling means you're trying, and should be embraced.

"Anchored to the present moment".

I love this perspective - not that one is restrained to the present as if it is a limitation.

Instead, the present is a safe harbor that one can explore memories and anxieties from.

This is fantastic. Thank you.

An Acer Palmatum - how lovely!

It's fabled that the sight of this species of Maple in early autumn caused a spiritual awakening in the 59th Emperor of Japan.

A visit to Yamashiro Province forest was fabled to have inspired him to abdicate his throne in pursuit of a simpler life of art and poetry.

I love the gnosis that Gornichec approaches her stories from. I think you'd also like The Weaver and the Witch Queen if you haven't already read it.

Divine feminine is starkly accurate - Beech trees are considered the "Matriarch of the Forest", primarily for their tendency of rich humus formation for the soil they grow in. Depleted soil is enriched by their presence, paving the way for flora that wouldn't flourish there otherwise.

How lovely!

Interestingly, the Dawn Redwood is the only species in its genus - and was discovered as a fossil, believed to be extinct before one was found alive in the 1940s.

Here's a beautiful Shagbark Hickory I found while leading a class in September

I'm glad you joined me here. Stuff is going to be different to TikTok. I want BlueSky to be more focused on direct conversation between me and the community.
