Who is this man?

I stood among the crowd in Oxford as the fire was prepared. The air was sharp, the morning grey, the silence uneasy.

The crowd gasped. Some wept. Others turned away.
Who is this man?

A Time for Reflection

I am back.

With a new year upon us, my start was somewhat jutted. My heating oil ran out early, my electric immersion heater for hot water failed to click in, and then my internet went down.

See my website for update

We chose a tree with roots this Christmas, and it is now planted out in the garden, beginning its life there properly.

At my desk this evening the fire burns low, the hour deep and the scent of herbs and wax thickens the air. On the shelf before me lies a small glass phial containing what the ancients once called Mandragora officinarum — the mandrake root. For more read my blog

The Lady of Shalott – The Mirror Cracked
Mist gathers upon the river as dawn drifts through the reeds. In a tower wrapped in ivy and silence, a lone figure bends over her loom — weaving the world as she sees it only through a mirror’s reflection.

Spells were the architecture of faith’s shadow: half prayer, half poetry.
