November Bilberries? (Let's talk about the Climate... part 9)
Last night the frost started properly in our forest,that is good and roughly as it should be.
It's still too dry because the long rains haven't materialised to refresh the parched land that was dessicated like a desert during this long hot everlasting summer... um... that's not so good.
It's probably going to be a fucking cold winter in our Dutch/German forest this year because some of our "winterfriends" the Bramblings (Fringilla Montifringilla) have flown down from the north to settle in our forest two whole months too early!

It's a cold, wet and dreary day in our forest... But we need a lot of rain to bring the waterlevels back up to normal, so that's ok.
And despite the greyness of the day, there is always a light that shines...
Because it shines on the inside :-)
Yes, you're right... this picture has nothing to do with this blog at all, except that it was taken on this exact day back in 2014 when we were touring in Mexico...
but hopefully it helps to bring a little warmth and beauty into your day ;-)
Greenthingz, Pagan musick and inner sunshine!
Happy Halloween (Tattoo)!
It's Samhain...even though the spring flowers are blooming all around our house.
I'm giving my daughter Myrthe (aka:"Lucy Mc Death") a random ritual Fortuna tattoo at this magick time...
This day of the Spirits...
when the Dead arise to mingle among the living...
When the murdered come to seek revenge upon their killers...
A Night to remind us of our own Mortality...
And speaking as a member of the most murderous species on this planet I would say:
Fixing things yourself feels good
Art is found in everything!
It pays to develop the skills to provide for your own living needs by yourself (not just woodcrafts ,cooking and survival skills) but also being self sufficient in things like building a bed, fixing a lamp or repairing a roof!
Do YOU "do stuff yourself" aswell?
(And do you think it makes you feel more confident in your life?)

#DrugCulture
The gently bubbling airlocks on our home-brew cider fills the air with its mesmerising, burbling flatulence... an entire civilisation of Yeast has arisen from the simple starting Culture within the mushed and squished Appley goodness in our vats.
All those teeny tiny busy little creatures are now lustily devouring the sugars in the fruit while multiplying at an impressive rate!
And ofcourse, during all this wild abandon of bohemian activity and digestion, they happily poop out copious amounts of carbon dioxide and...yes...wait for it...Drugs!!
(In the form of Alcohol!)
Yum! Isn't mother nature bountifull!
Yippee!! We have our own personal
Drug Culture! :-)
Greenthingz and pleasant intoxicationz!
