- The real notes for my 15 minute rundown on pagan folklore of early February for my Wolf Milk workshop tonight. Wolves, milk, birth, death: it’s all here in these deep winter weeks.
- I miss the days when we were aghast a new year had arrived. I haven’t heard a SINGLE person say “I can’t believe it’s 2025” yet. And it’s nearly February. Where have we gone wrong?
- The incredible Roman era exhibit at the Hancock museum in Newcastle — colour projections on the stone artifacts show how these altars would have looked nearly two thousand years ago.
- Holy holy holy
