The Birth of The Wylde Hearth
The birth of the Wylde Hearth
Welcoming this Threshold today ~ the first day of Spring a portal of Rebirth out of the Boggy Mists of Winter ~ but also a Grief Portal ~ the day of Loosing my Father 10 years ago ~ his last breath was sipped away by spring. He became the spring bird song . I have had many tears for him today .
I am sitting in my healing space , next to this beautiful ancient tree that has been blessed by the prayer filled waters of many womb steams and holds the Rebozos in its branches after The closing of the Bones Ceremony ~ Honouring this land - for 4 seasons now it has allowed me to dive deep and expand in myself - weaving me back into my bones after my sacred pilgrimage to my birth lands and the lands of my ancestors - Scotland .
A peat fire between graveyards, a circle of stones, and the whispers of my ancestors…
The Wylde Hearth has revealed itself — a place of thresholds, remembrance, and return.”
A year ago, on the Isle of Lewis, after singing the Sun up through the Misty veils of Calanias Stone Circle on the Autumn Equinox ~ I lit a peat fire under the stars between two graveyards on a Beach of ancient stones and Craggy cliffs ~
Stones, bones, flame, water, wind and Stars ~ Ancestors
Maiden, Mother, Maga, Crone — all constellated.
It is only now, as Spring stirs again, that I see what was birthed:
And it feels equally as potent that on my Fathers Day of Death that I honour a Rebirth
A Sacred Constellation has come into being
🔥 The Wylde Hearth🔥
This is more than a name — it is a remembering.This is the space where the land, the stars, and the bones of our lineage guide us home.
A sacred constellation where thresholds are honoured, where women soften into the initiations of life, where body and land are remembered as temple — where women are invited to soften, to remember, to reclaim what has never been lost.
🌌 The Stars guide me — Gemini Sun, Capricorn Moon, Aries Rising: weaving story and song, carrying vision, igniting transformation, tending fire, opening portals, calling women into power and transformation.
🌍 The Lands breathe through me — Weaving the Ancestral songs of Scotland , Cornwall and The Isle of Lewis where the threshold of spirit, stone and sea are a portal to liminal lands where the veil thins, and the unseen whispers 🔥,To the many lands I have travelled and cultures and teachings in traditional ways I have been immersed in and here in Maleny, my water place where eagle, turtle, platypus, stag, and dingo speak their medicine.
🔥 The Offerings are my devotion — Womb Alchemy, Ceremonial Bodywork, Gatherings, Teachings and Wylde Adventures.
Every circle, every touch, every prayer is a return —
to the fire,
to the earth, to the Sacred Waters
to the breath of the stars within.
✨ Tend the fire. Warm the bones. Remember the way. ✨
The thresholds are open — come find the medicine waiting for you.
From my Hearth to yours, always tending the fire.
