The tradition of making offerings to spirit beings is an ancient one. Offerings should be carefully considered – and biodegradable. Rather than being made to appease the spirits, offerings should honour them and strengthen a beneficial bond between the realms. Learn more about offerings, honouring Spirit and the subtle realms.
The gift of a wand
After dowsing the line of geopathic stress through my new office space, I found that I needed to carry out some earth acupuncture before moving in.

Through reading the earth, dowsing and understanding the subtle energies of a place we can communicate with our environment on a truly profound level […]

Echidna medicine is about being alone, self-protection and keeping your secrets. After finding this echidna I looked further […]

Around Beltane, when veils between worlds are thin, it’s easier to make contact with spirits, elementals, nature spirits and those in other realms. I took some photos at Beltane this year, while we were walking our labyrinth at night, and these spirits made themselves known by showing in some of […]
