I hope all are well here. I'm snowbound. For those who don't know - Ireland is going through a bit of a cold spell this week. We had enough snow to be extremely problematic on Sunday/ Monday. That has now frozen over and we're due temps of -8C tonight. (17F for those not used to Celsius!) So, I'm stuck in the house and working from home. This, after my keyboard stopped working over Christmas and I'm awaiting a new one to be delivered. And considering I'm at the top of a hill that is currently a sheet of ice, no post person is going to be travelling up or down that road this week!! Even the neighbours with the 4-wheel drive aren't venturing out yet. But, how and ever, life moves on. Early bird pricing is over now for the Imbolc retreat. But there are places left so you can still sign up. Now, I have been writing up my annual "privilege" inventory this morning. You can see this in detail if you are signed up to the earl access on the blog. If not, it will be published for general viewing next week. But it brought home to me that there have been times in my life when I would not have been able to take advantage of this early bird offer, because a week just would not have been enough time to gather the funds to do so. In light of this, I've decided to extend an offer, allowing either $100 or €100 off any of the payment options for those on my email list. If you use the code 100OFFEMAIL, you can get either $100 or €100 off any of the plans. Including the payment plans. That means you can sign up today for just $247 or €235. And of course it applies to the payment in full options as well. That offer is available until the spaces are full or until 21st January, depending on which comes first. In the mean time - my Christmas decorations came down this morning, with Nollag na mBan being yesterday. Next, I'm starting the major deep clean of my office/ritual space - this supports my energetical preparation for Imbolc as well and it will look amazingly clean for that Imbolc ritual mentioned above. I may just get it clean and then refuse to allow anyone set foot in it until Imbolc!! (Mostly joking there!) But it's important for me to do this. It gets the energy up and moving for the time when planting seeds is happening. It gets me in the proper frame of mind for fresh starts, refreshed activity, that sort of thing. And, to be fair, most areas of the house need a deep clean after the winter, so it's useful in many ways. OK, bit of a long one today, but apparently, being a day late, meant I had loads to tell ye!

I’ve been thinking more about rest this week. Not collapse.Not giving up.But the kind of rest that comes before we step back in. The pause where things are still forming beneath the surface. I know, deeply, that rest is not available to everyone right now. There are places in the world where survival takes all the space there is. I hold that reality alongside my own. And still, for those of us who do have the choice, I’m wondering what happens when we stop forcing clarity, momentum, or...
I had a rough weekend. Check out this week's blog post for the physical and spiritual aspects of it! But since you signed up to hear from me every week, I want to go into a bit more detail of my thoughts here. I see people taking action all over the world. I see it in Palestine, Congo, Iran... I see the resistance - because people feel they have no choice. And I see it in the US as well. But there's an undercurrent, in certain populations, in the US. It's one of expecting someone to save...
Yes, I'm still on about energy and things starting to grow today! I can't help it, I can feel the energy moving and shifting and it's fun! Plus, you know, it's that time of year when I get geared up for talking about Brigid non-stop, for 2 full months. (I know, you lot are used to listening to me all the time, but other people aren't!) Anyway, it's a quick email today, because I'm working on something very exciting. I'm putting together an Imbolc retreat. I did this last year, it was 6 hours,...
