Our shop closes in 2 days and our gift to you…

Wild Fen

Hello Wild Soul,

I hope you are finding some gentle moments, amidst what can often feel like a very busy time of year.

We had our final market of the year on Saturday evening and then, after a slow start to Sunday, we went for a walk whilst the sun was out and my goodness was it needed!

Shop update

We wanted to let you know that our online shop will be closing this Wednesday 17th at 5pm. All orders made before this time will be posted out the following day, in time for Christmas.

Stock is running low. We have completely sold out of our homegrown smoulder sticks and have just 3 medium lunar calendars and 2 wheel of the year card sets remaining…

We have added a few final pieces of Wild Jewellery to our store which alongside all remaining pieces have 20% off for the next 2 days as a thank you for your support this year.

I have really been enjoying spotting the Ivy climbing up the trunks and branches of trees on my walks lately. Whilst many plants are dormant over the Winter, Ivy continues its journey, climbing trees and walls in order to reach the light. It is wild and rambling, filled with energy and vigour and is steeped in folklore and mystery. It can be symbolic of our own, wild journey and guides us in embracing the twists and turns in our path.

Energy & Symbolism: Wildness, Journey, Change, Growth, Embracing ourselves

However you will be spending the next few weeks, I hope there will be moments of peace, magic and connection present for you.

I wanted to share some of my favourite Winter treasure with you before I go…

With love and magic,

Savouring September

Wild Fen

Hello Wild Soul,

As we step into September, I wanted to share with you some words I wrote about this time of year…

This piece was chosen to accompany the month of September in the Earth Pathways wall calendar for 2026. I wanted to share it with you here too because I really do find the transitionary points of the year as we move between seasons, a potent time to take stock and savour the magic.

A little Apple Magic…

As we move into this new month, I have been captivated, once again by the fruit trees that feel especially abundant this year. We found ourselves returning to the beautiful Avalon orchard a couple of weeks ago. If you have read my post walking with trees from a few years ago, you may remember that this beautiful little orchard, just beneath Glastonbury Tor holds real significance for me. I often find myself here during times of doubt and fear and this time was no different.

The last time I had visited, I lay beneath the sweet blossoms in Spring, watching crows fly between the branches, and bees buzz joyfully. Under those trees, I felt my energy slowly begin to rise and my spark return after a long, cold Winter. This time, I sat my frazzled body in the shade of the apple trees on a hot, late Summer afternoon. We spent a few hours, soaking in the peace, tasting apples and infusing in the magic of these abundant trees.

September and associated Trees

September is the month of golden light and fields, and as the month progresses, golden leaves too. There are many trees associated with this time of the year but it is the fruit trees that are stealing the show for me this year, how about you?

The Elder trees are ripe with berries just now and hold such medicine for us as we move into the Autumn. I have been gathering the glossy purple berries for a spiced syrup and stewing them alongside apples and blackberries.

The Hawthorns and Blackthorns are also loaded with glossy fruits this year too, but right now, it is the apple trees that are have been calling to me the most..

Wild Fen offerings

We are currently working on an Wild Jewellery collection, inspired by the abundance of Autumn. You will be the first to see them in a few weeks time. Until then we still have some beautiful Moon pendants in store now.

Before I go, I just I wanted to share a couple of articles I thought you may be interested in reading as we move ever closer to the Autumn Equinox…

Wishing you all some moments to savour this week,

My favourite practices for grounding at Midsummer

Wild Fen

Hello Wild Soul,

Every year, the Summer Solstice seems to take me by surprise, and this year is no exception! The heat is rising, the flowers are blooming and insects are busy gathering nectar.

The Summer Solstice corresponds to the Full Moon phase of the lunar cycle. These are points of fullness and culmination. Whilst these ‘peaks’ can feel abundant and celebratory, we may also find ourselves experiencing overflow and overwhelm as our long days become full, busy, and hot!

Summer Solstice is associated with the fire element and the Full Moon phase of the lunar cycle

In today’s post, I will be sharing my favourite practices for working with this heightened energy so lets dive in!

Grounding Midsummer Practices

As the heat rises, I find myself craving the water’s edge to balance some of the fiery, Summer energy. If you would like to read more about ways to work with and balance the intensity at this time of the year, do check out my post Lessons from the Longest day too.

Grounding

As the land around us brims with abundance, one of my favourite daily rituals is to get my bare feet on the ground as often as possible. In fact, laying my whole body on the earth and feeling the support of the ground beneath me is so nourishing just now. I wonder, do you ever plant yourself to the earth in this way too?

I especially enjoy being outside first thing, as the morning air is cooler, and again in the evenings as the sun lowers in the sky. I tend to my plants, soak in the stillness and gather some herbs for a garden brew…

Garden tea

One of my favourite practices to connect with the seasons is to gather some herbs from the land around me and brew them into a fresh tea. At this time of year, there are so many vibrant herbs and plants to choose from, many of which can be grown in pots if you are lacking space.

Some of my favourites just now include; Peppermint, Lemon balm, Calendula, Sage, Thyme, Chamomile, Lavender, Self heal and Clover.

I like to use a cafetiere to brew my herbs, cover them in just boiled water and steep for around 15 – 20 minutes. I then enjoy my tea mindfully in the garden.

Introducing our Moon Phases print

We LOVED creating our new moon print as it is something we have been asked for so many times! We would love to hear what you think. It comes with a guided prompt or reflection for each moon phase throughout the lunar cycle.

As with all our designs, they are printed on uncoated, recycled card by an independent printing company and are available in two sizes; 8 x 10 inches and 11 x 14 inches.
