Every time I emerge from the den of this publication, I am leaving with a great gift. One that delivers to me the ancient wisdom of the land. Woven with the folklore of old and animistic medicine. Things once buried and forgotten seem to bubble up within the chambers of this space to find me, and remind me of the truly rich wisdom of the land, and how I may show up as a part of it. It is a space of remembrance and embodiment - merging once again with the body of the earth and stars.
A publication woven from the stars themselves. Steeped in folklore and the wisdom of the land. It serves in devotion to the wild places. That of the land and heart. Through it we remember our relationship to all that is. Divinely woven threads of magic and mystery come together to reveal their secrets in this beautiful and richly nourishing garden.
The wellspring is like the ancient bathhouses where women and sisters share their deepest heart songs. It is like coming home to the embrace of motherly and innately women's wisdom. That cozy cup of tea that invigorates your bones and inspires your soul. It is a beautiful and enriching journey into embodiment and motherhood and all that it holds.
Woven with the threads of magic in seemingly mundane acts. Here one finds the tenderly baked inspiration of recipes sprinkled with visually rich photos and a dash of storytelling that serves a beautiful experience. Like a fine cooked meal by the fireplace in your home, with a glass of wine in your hands and a lover by your side. Elegance and comfort. Connecting one deeper to their food and how we may weave magic through the art of their preparation and witness.
Such a rich tapestry of stories unfold within this sacred space. As though you are walking through ruins of a time that once was, yet you still remember in your bones. Reading Sylvia's stories brings a potently warm feeling within the depths of me. Teaching me about the gifts of storytelling and remembering the old ways of holy communion with the land.
