The Worlds of wonder event - Stepping through the Gates of Autumn






To celebrate the Autumn equinox ( Mabon) I attended a wonderful event run by Steve Rumellhart.  I love this time of year, dark and light are in balance and it is a time to reflect on the year gone so far and plan for the winter months ahead. Although I am a sun worshipper and a sun sign, I can still appreciate that we need this balance when the world starts to become darker until the sun gives way to rests and then returns strong once again.

 We started with a magical story telling by Cliff Eastabrook - The Travelling Talesman. As we walked through the beautiful woods, he weaved a magical tale into every part of the landscape.
 
It really made me think about every time I go into my woods, how I look at things and it inspired me to try it for myself.    
These events are so much fun too.  I love dressing up and in one day I managed to shape shift into a fox and a wolf!

The other guest was Leo Rutherford (Shaman and author) pictured below and I managed to catch up with him after his talk!






 
This is so true and something I will remember. Why have a dream if you do not intend to try and make it come true?
