S02E03 Entering the Dark Season with Lili Hayward, Magical Tails & Cornish Folklore

In this episode we talk all about honoring our ancestors, the magic of the Celtic New Year and the thinning veil between our worlds and how we can use it for our self-growth. We embrace November’s feasting as well as the energy of rest and slowly start preparing for Christmas. With our guest, Lili Hayward, author of A Midwiner’s Tail and The Cat of Yule Cottage (also known as the best-selling writer of historical fiction Laura Madeleine) we delve into the magic of Cornwall, its folk tales, why cats are inseperable part of them, a sense of belonging to a place…. and so much more.
