Pippin The Druid Watches Over Stonehenge

Pippin looks great in his Druid robes as he watches over Stonehenge from the astral heights. Pippin is a very spiritual little dog and connects to the forms of the ancient druids who left their energy still attached to the earthen areas of Britain. It is possible, via a model, to connect to the actual area of a great place. This can be a good thing or a bad thing, as sometimes such energies can be overwhelming or not really fit in to the everyday scheme of things, belonging as they do to another era.

Pippin On Walkabout - Through The Smokescreen

Tunings in suggest that Pippin the dog may indeed have gone on Walkabout at the moment. We got this 'vibe' that Pippin wasn't somehow in his usual spot - as if he had gone on another of his adventures. It always reminds us of an old song called 'Me And You And A Dog Named Boo', about this couple and a dog that travel round their country - which is America and as soon as they settle down they get 'itchy feet' or 'itchy car tyres' and want to set off somewhere else again like nomads.

Pippin Of St Ives, Cornwall,The Poet Rupert Brooke And The Mysterious Dog Tarot

This is little Pippin  - I tend to call him Pippin St Ives, as it kind of resonates I think - a bit like Giles St John or something like this. I originally wanted to call the blog Pippin's Paradigm, because as a brand we are portraying this adorable little felted dog that is mischievous and can settle in anywhere he is taken to and get used to the environment and changes of scenery, so he is pretty adaptable.

There is a 'real' Pippin of course and mine is a simulacrum of him, but as the poet Rupert Brooke says in his poem entitled 'Doubts'(which incidentally, is really about Rupert's relationship with the actress Cathleen Nesbitt) 'As she sleeps her soul I know goes a wanderer on the air' I would say the same about Pippin 'And if the spirit be not there - why is fragrance in the hair?'

Now going on to the Dog Tarot which has very nice energy and is a deck which is definitely friendly and useful - this deck is explained and examined in more detail by video on the blog link below which is called Mona Steorra.

Magickal Conjurations On 29th December 2016

We used a small cauldron outdoors to do a bit of conjuring. We previously used a much larger fire dish on November 5th, but that required a lot more preparation.

With the small cauldron it was very easy to use quickly  - especially as the weather is not very good at this time of year and nights are quite cold to be hanging around outside for long periods of time, so it was nice to have a compact version to hand.

The video has audio - also see our sister blog Mystical Mardale for more magickal goings on!
