Hello Witches
The Buck Moon rises at the height of summer when the forests and fields are alive with abundance and the stag carries his newly grown antlers.
In this month’s Full Moon episode we are exploring the deeper symbolism of the Buck Moon and what this powerful lunar phase invites us to reflect upon. Together we will journey through its folklore, mythology and spiritual meaning discovering why the stag has become such a powerful symbol of renewal, resilience and personal sovereignty.
We will also explore the deities and spirits traditionally connected to this moon including Cernunnos, Herne the Hunter, Pan, Artemis, Diana and the mythical Norse stag Eikthyrnir whose antlers were said to nourish the rivers of the world.
We will touch upon the earth spirits and fae associated with this season and consider how the natural world mirrors our own inner cycles of growth.
I hope this episode encourages you to honour how far you have already come, celebrate your own becoming and remember that just like the stag, your greatest strength often grows quietly before the world ever sees it.

Lammas Gathering - Thursday 30th July from 7pm via Zoom
For this circle we gather to honour the first harvest and reflect upon one of nature’s greatest teachings -
“The Earth asks, what are you willing to sacrifice for what must live?”
When we hear the word sacrifice we often think of loss, but nature tells a different story. The wheat cannot become bread while it remains standing in the field, the fruit must be picked before it begins to nourish. Every harvest asks us to release one form so that another may emerge.
Lammas reminds us that growth is not only about planting new seeds but is also about recognising what has fulfilled its purpose and having the courage to let it go.
Together we will explore what we have cultivated over the past year, celebrate the blessings already ripening in our lives and gently ask ourselves what we are ready to release so that something even more meaningful can flourish.
As the Wheel of the Year begins its slow turn towards autumn, Lammas invites us to pause before the rush of the coming seasons. It asks us to acknowledge how far we have come, gather the wisdom we have earned and consciously choose what we wish to carry forward.

Our theme in The Hedge & Hollow for July is The Storyteller. This month we step beyond the pages of the storybook and into the enchanted forest itself.
Together we will explore how folklore has shaped our understanding of the world for centuries, uncover the archetypes that continue to guide us today and discover that the stories we return to are often mirrors reflecting our own journeys of becoming.
Whether you have always loved fairy tales or have never looked beyond them as childhood stories I hope you will discover that behind every enchanted forest, witch’s cottage and magical transformation lies timeless wisdom that still speaks to us today. We will explore -
The stories we inherit and the stories we choose to live by
Discover how the narratives we tell ourselves quietly shape our lives and why changing your story may be the first step towards changing your future.
The archetypes that live within us
Meet the Wild Woman, the Witch, the Wise Woman, the Maiden, the Crone and the Fairy Godmother exploring how these timeless figures continue to guide us through different seasons of our lives.
Folklore as a map for transformation
We will uncover why fairy tales were never simply entertainment but symbolic maps leading us through initiation, grief, courage, love, shadow and rebirth.
The hidden language of symbols
Why do forests, wolves, mirrors, apples, keys and rivers appear again and again in folklore? Together we will look at the symbolic language that has woven through myths and fairy tales for centuries.
A deep dive into a beloved fairy tale
Together we will journey into one traditional fairy tale uncovering its forgotten folklore, symbolism, magickal correspondences and the wisdom hidden between its pages.
A guided journey to Baba Yaga’s hut
Deep within the forest you will meet the ancient witch herself, who will reveal the story that is ending, the story waiting to be written and the archetype currently walking beside you.
The Storyteller’s Grimoire
Beautifully designed printable grimoire pages filled with journal prompts, symbolic correspondences, reflective exercises and invitations to begin discovering your own personal myth.
