Pagan life, with just a hint of fairy dust, of a UK Witch
I took that photo lunchtime today, after visibility had cleared a little. You couldn’t see the Isle of Wight, which is just a stone’s throw away, nor could you make out where the sea ended and the sky began. My lovely beach matched my mood today – grey, bleak and feeling like I’d lost my [...]
I wasn’t going to sign up for any reading challenges this year. Although I’m a book worm through and through, I didn’t think I’d have enough time to properly commit to reading. Last year, it seemed I was only grabbing a few minutes reading in bed before the book would fall from my hands [...]

Our local library is very generous with the amount of items you can check out – 30 books at any one time which you can borrow for 4 weeks and renew up to 5 times. Back in October I went on a borrowing spree with my husband and came home with a stack of books [...]

The Earth Child’s Handbook is a fabulous ebook from Pagan artist Brigid Ashwood. I was lucky enough to be given 2 volumes during the school holidays – ‘Me & My Family’ and ‘Mother Earth & The Elements‘. I do enjoy getting lost in craft projects with the boys and it was a delight to have [...]
There’s currently a re-run of Haunted Homes on the Sci-Fi channel in the UK. The programme shows psychic Mia Dolan, sceptic Professor Chris French and paranormal investigator Mark Webb visiting homes throughout the UK were families have reported paranormal activity. The show itself is not one of the best ghost hunting programmes to make it [...]
