Just keeping this space warm until I decide to do something with it ....
Officially St Patrick's Chair and Well (the well is a bullaun stone, which is a bit of a scramble down from the seat) this is known to many as The Druid's Chair. It's in Altadevan glen near the town of Augher in Fermanagh.

A retouched pic of Olivia Robertson, co-founder of The Fellowship of Isis. Olivia was larger than life, a leading light in Goddess spirituality & an influence on 3 generations of OBOD leaders.
Here's an article I wrote ages back summarising her links with OBOD: druidry.org/resources/ol...

One for the OBODies - Nuinn in colour.
I'm not great with the aul computer art, so it would be great if someone did a properly professional job of colourising the old pics of Nuinn - I just thought it might be nice to have an updated view of him.

Cats are solar-powered, and I have never seen any creature as content as a stinky old tomcat basking in a ray of sunlight. May we all live to know such happiness.

My Fool is not dressed in motley, nor cavorting near a cliff edge. The dangers a poor Fool faces in emerging into the world these days are more complex.
If you had the option of living off-grid in the woods, would you come out of hiding & return to the world again? Or do the woods hold zero appeal?

The real Judgement isn't a God from above marking our lives like homework we have handed in - it comes in those moments of clarity when we perceive our own true natures.

I was feeling mischevious when I made this, but think - The Devil in tarot is a fabulous symbol of our addiction to worldly matters, with its chained humans. And what is more addictive than a smartphone? My humans aren't shackled, but they aren't leaving any time soon. #tarot

Why do so many Pagans & Druids neglect the Autumn Equinox (aka Alban Elfed or Cónocht an Fomhair)? Once Lughnasadh is over, many find their thoughts go straight to Samhain. But the second harvest was the make-or-break survival time for our ancestors.
