Are you a compassion warrior, culture worker, and rebel who cares deeply about humanity; who's tired of doing all the “right things” and still getting what you’re trying to avoid; and who feels trapped between burning it all down or dying but would rather be wildly, and sacredly alive? I'm an animist and ancestral wisdom guide; ceremonialist, and empath. And I love guiding other humans who want to use their burnout and purpose anxiety as a jumping-off point to journey into their shadows and the shadows of modern society in order to de-armor their hearts; remember a deeper, wilder sense of belonging to the world; and reclaim the rich and sacred spark of their aliveness. This newsletter contains wisdom nuggets, podcast episodes, and invitations to paid and free offerings from my business. All in support of remembering a more animist and land-based culture; holding firm to our humanity in a dehumanizing world; and living with compassion, vulnerability, and reverence.
happy equinox! (a quick note about a bonus episode)

Hello, my dears - It's funny how we can tell ourselves astrology and things like it aren't real... and yet.... the more I sink into the rhythm of "life as pilgrimage," a rhythm of aliveness that listens to my heart, my gut, and spirit - and then moves accordingly; the more I find threshold moments in my life just seem to magically coincide with astrological threshold moments. And so here we are - in the red light of a total lunar eclipse; stirring up feelings, and inviting karmic closures and...
Welcome to August, dear ones - Here’s our beginning-of-the-month update! The Wheel of the Year: a field I pass on my daily walks here in the Northeast of Scotland In terms of the solar and lunar holidays marking the turning of the Wheel of the Year (solstices, equinoxes, and cross quarter days), we’re in the moment of Lughnasadh or Lammas.
