Welcome 

I am a lover of myth, legend & fairy-story & over the years have adapted & set to music numerous tales of wonder and enchantment from around the world including The Celtic Quest for the Grail - Sir Gawain & the Green Knight - The Six Swans - Vassilsa the Beautiful & many more.
I have written two books - The Little Goddess & The Dark Moon & present lectures & workshops on related topics.  I publish a blog and upload content to YouTube every month. My wish is to create material that inspires & sooths the soul.  
I am married & have two daughters & live in the UK.

Wisdom from Myth, Legend & Fairy-story

Join us as we explore
THE HERO & HEROINE’S JOURNEY
The path begins at our bleakest moment. If we are lucky we will hear the call and instead of collapsing we will set off in quest of the first chink of light and onward into the unknown, searching and gathering with each step we take.
It will not be easy. This is the quest of heroes & heroines, the brave and courageous … the ones who have gone before and returned with their great stories so that we, through contemplation, might be guided through our own dark night of soul.

ALL WELCOME - FREE

“Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost.”
―Dante Alighieri, The Divine Comedy

 A masterpiece of medieval literature!
 Ground-breakingly written in Italian not Latin.
 Beloved of the people.
 A political satire of the day exposing corruption in Church & State.
 But most of all a love story to equal that of Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet & the tale of an archetypal journey into the darkest realms of the psyche in quest of freedom & spiritual illumination.
 Join us as we peer into the mystery of Dante’s greatest work.
 
All Welcome

December Greeting

“Letter to a Friend om Christmas Eve”
  by Fra Giovanni Giocondo
to his friend Countess Allagia Aldobrandeschi,
Christmas Eve, 1513
Fra Giovanni Giocondo (c.1435–1515) was a Renaissance pioneer accomplished as an architect, engineer, antiquary, archaeologist, classical scholar and Franciscan friar. Today we remember him most for his reassuring letter to Countess Allagia Aldobrandeschi on Christmas Eve, 1513.
Bright blessings to you, today and all through the year!
