Craft as pagan devotion: a Lughnasadh conversation with Scottish storyteller Daniel Allison

On permission to participate in an abundant spiritual life

This week I had the pleasure of catching up with my friend Daniel Allison in a podcast episode that will appear both on my podcast, Fair Folk (check it out if you haven’t!) and Daniel’s, House of Legends. You can also listen right here.

The episode opens with Daniel telling the story of the god Lugh (after whom Lughnasadh is named) at the hall of the king Nuada, leading us into a discussion of how we might approach Lughnasadh folklore and mythology now.

Next, we share what each of us has been up to lately, especially emphasizing the role of pagan devotion in each of our work, and diving into the role of “permission” to embody sacred traditional culture. You can always find a gatekeeper somewhere out there, but you won’t find one in here. 💖

Daniel Allison and I will be offering a series of four monthly workshops together between September and December called Cave of Dreams. In these sessions we will share seasonal story, song, folklore and meditations, and hold space for participants to use these materials to generate creative work and reflection.

We are inspired by the gathering-in that occurs in the darkening months as a catalyst for deep and intuitive visioning, hence the title Cave of Dreams.

To get the details as soon as they are available, join the waiting list here!
