I had a wonderful weekend in Edinburgh - Saturday was the fantastic Scottish Pagan Federation's Lifting the Veil 2025 Conference.
I spoke about Valkyries, of course, which seemed to be well-received.

Having all the fun with sculpting and casting at the moment. Why did it take me so long to get to doing this? Anyway, here’s my army of Thors. 😂 #heathensky #pagansky #witchsky

Managed to squeeze in a few more hours on Hel this morning before the Pagan Federation's first AGM as a charity (and maybe I did a little bit in the first 20 mins as well....) Cough. I'm also prepping Odin for his first silicone moulding bath, which is a bit stressful. Arghhhh. #heathensky #pagansky

I'm struggling with directing my anger at *everything* recently, tired of the hate and fear. I'm also feeling the Valkyries particularly potently at the moment. They seem active, reactive, present, there, around. And I know I'm not alone in that. I wrote this yesterday.

Talk about a non-story. The Pagan Federation supports trans-Pagans. Woman makes antri-trans comments & is removed. She goes to national newspaper, and we get this shoddy journalism. No, not all Pagans believe in divine genders."Arthur Pendragon" does not speak for us.

This was very fun to be a part of - and timely for Pride Month.
There's so much freedom within Paganism and Heathenry to be yourself, all of yourself, and to be supported by a community that believes the same. Don't accept anything less.

Last year, I had the opportunity to hold a blöt to the Valkyries at the Great Heathen Gathering (Helsmoot). Torrential rain aside (which was oddly fitting!) It was an exceptional experience. The atmosphere was indescribable. Hail to the Valkyrjur! #heathensky #pagansky #witchsky youtu.be/PjEXLFflGlg

The ADHD hyperfocus/cannot focus cycle has been strong recently. I'm trying to exercise more mindfulness, so I'm back to doing some readings to find a way through the brain fog. The message keeps coming through loud and clear, positive change is happening. Keep going. #heathensky #pagansky #witchsky

Went back to the hometown yesterday for its annual St George's Day festival. But for me, it's a special place because of one historical figure - Æthelflæd. Lady of the Mercians. Someone who has inspired me, and will continue to inspire me. I hope I'm doing something she would be proud of.

The trick is to not mention History around me ever. I will make it about the Medieval period, and then you are doomed.
