a journey of self discovery. You just never know what we might see. Is that a fairy ring under that rowan tree? Look! - a hedgewitch, I wonder what she is brewing in her cauldron today. Oh, and look at that poor menopausal soul, she needs our love & understanding. We may take a stop at the creativity school or a wander through the garden. And maybe, we will take the time machine back to the past! But wherever we go, we will always take time to stop for tea.

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

the elixir of life


without water, we die. simple as that. Here in Australia we live with drought, on & off. But rain always comes. A dear sweet friend of mine is experiencing a drought that has rocked her world and asked me if I have a spell - hmmm. not that I know of. Unless I do a naked rain dance, and believe me that is not a pretty sight. However - the good old trusty saints can come to the rescue as they do & will always.
Isidore the farmer for rain * AGRICOLA of Avignon for rain & fine harvests * HERIBERT of Cologne - against drought
dear sweet Jenny - I will be asking the saints to send some rain & will light a candle on my altar for you today

Big hug to you Robin...thank you so much my sweet kind friend....I love the saints! I became a Catholic convert when I married my very staunch Irish/German Catholic husband. Have you heard of St. Swithin? he is supposed to be another patron of rain. Supposedly if it rains on his feast day...July 15 there will be 40 days of rain to follow...well...it didn't rain on his day...bummer! My Irish MIL said it will rain Aug.15 the Feast of the Assumption so I have my candles lit by her icon...I'll say some extra prayers to these new saints you mentioned too! It is 110 degrees no at 4pm...and so hot I may go out and bake some more cupcakes on my dashboard! Bless you dear Robyn!

It certainly would be nice if these saints would do their job:-) If you believe enough, maybe it will work!! So many people are suffering because of drought and I also pray that they get rain soon!!
