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

The Hermit can walk through a crowd without noticing - he walks in his own world.
The shadow Hermit, reversed, has withdraw out of pain, pride, fear or resentment - he is self-exiled.

Strength is:
- Being able to grow in an inhospitable place
- Standing while you can, even if you know you'll be trampled in the end
- Bringing beauty to bleakness
- Not caring if people consider you a weed
- Being nourishment and healing for those who know how to take you
