wild garlic leaves and spring in devon with the goddess

wild garlic leaves

Staverton

I remember a time when I thought nature was just a beautiful backdrop to my life before I realised you could have an ecstatic connection with the Earth.  A goddess who believes in you rather than a god you have to believe in ...how about that :)...(paraphrased from John Lash)

the goddess frowns...and smiles again...

Torrential rain, thunder and lightning in the area over the last couple of days (I live nearby) replaced the beautiful sunshine and vibrant heat prior to this debatable event.....

Glastonbury Festival 2014

I litter picked after the festival in 2011, a sea of nylon tents and equipment is left behind by festival goers, along with various white powders and miscellaneous messes.  The many cans dropped are trodden into the ground and need to be dug our afterwards with tent pegs.  I really enjoyed working hard at this job after the festival in glorious sun, on the earth with the vigorous exercise of this task, and probably a lot more than I would have enjoyed the festival!  It was so satisfying relieving the land of all this debris (every last bit must be removed before the cattle can be safely returned to Worthy Farm) and I was very proud to be one of the last litter pickers kept on for the month.  The Goddess smiled...
