Many of us are drawn to “the old ways”…but why? What can we draw from the past in order to live a more fully connected life now? Why is it that the Celtic culture, and other earth-based cultures of these lands, have a particular draw & allure for people during these times?
We have gathered 23 + incredible teachers who will be sharing bright threads of the ancestral traditions of these isles, and we invite you to join us as we drink together from this well of wisdom that is still very much alive.
This course is intended to be an in-depth study, and a gathering around the fire, where we will learn and grow together, untying the knots and re-weaving the thread. Over 4 months we will journey into a deep and rich exploration of Celtic ways and culture; providing nutrients to feed our own sense of connection and belonging. We will be joined by some wonderful elders, musicians, crafters and storytellers who will be sharing from the well of ancestral wisdom from these isles…awakening remembrance of ancient, yet timeless, animistic cultures and ways.
We invite you to gather with us to hear and learn some of the old songs, stories, and lore; as well as to physically craft your own Brigid’s cross, deerskin pouch, and Scottish wool yarn. May this series touch your heart and inspire your own connection to place, to your unique voice, and to your path of purpose and expression.

Il Condor e L’Aquila: Una nuova prospettiva sciamanica sulla tua vita – The Condor and the Eagle- Firenze. TOSCANA, ITALIA, Nov. 7-12, with Itzhak Beery.
In a world that can feel chaotic and disheartening, many of us are left wondering what is going on and where humanity stands. The ancient Andean prophecy of the Condor and the Eagle might offer us a hopeful perspective, reminding us that our world is going through a period of conscious realignment. The prophecy describes a time when the Condor, the symbol of South American indigenous wisdom and Earth-honoring living, and the Eagle, the symbol of Western industrial society, will fly together in harmony, peace, and cooperation. It symbolizes the sacred balance between the masculine, logical technology of the West and the heart-centered, intuitive spiritual connection with nature.

Drum Birthing Workshops with Melonie Syrett.
To birth a drum is to rebirth yourself. Melonie, thedrumwoman, runs regular drum birthing 121 and group workshops as well as retreats across the year.
121 workshops mean that you can make more choices about your drum. Perhaps pyrography or paint on the hoop, different crystal placements, adding feathers or attaching things, changing the way the handle looks. These are £299 per person and 10:30am to around 5:30pm. Group workshops can take up to 7 participants, (if in my home the maximum is 4). In this space we all make a traditional drum with a cross handle or 3 strand goddess handle. You have the option of placing a crystal in the centre of the handle. These are £200 per person.
Melonie also offers advanced workshops for those that have perhaps birthed a drum before and now want to expand their creativity. In these workshops people have created whale tail handles, ovoid drums with stick handles, intricate handle designs or crystal placements and more.
Melonie also makes and sells drums, take commissions for embellished drums and rattles.

Shamanic Counseling – Learning the Shamanic Journey. Near PERTH, SCOTLAND with Brian Anderson.
A six-session personal workshop that can be taken anytime. By the end of the sessions, you will have learnt the method of the shamanic journey. You will learn how to safely and effectively engage with your own helping compassionate spirits as a method of guidance and problem solving. This time-tested practice opens us up to build partnerships with our own helping spirits to dynamically and practically support our lives.
The six session covers the cosmology of the shaman’s map, we will undertake Lower and Upper world journeys, learn how to ask questions of the spirits and how to understand how they communicate with us as well as look at how to bring this wisdom practically out into our own lives. This means as a result we have an effective practice to build supportive relationships that we can call on at any time to grow our lives.
It works best to have regular sessions with a space of one to two weeks in between to keep the momentum moving. This work is offered online using Zoom/Skype as well as in person and each session last around one and half to two hours as well as in person. Cost for the full six session £300 paid in full or with deposit of £100 for first session then £40 paid for each the five remaining sessions. Please contact with any questions or to arrange this workshop.

Walking the Sacred Way.Near PERTH, SCOTLAND, with Brian Anderson. Shamanism opens us to the sacredness of life, this process moves us away from a hierarchical and linear mind to a circular state of consciousness where we know we are connected as one web of life and come to experience life as sacred and that all life is alive and that land is sacred and so asks to be respected. Cultures across the world talk of nature as the visible face of spirit so as we walk we are walking in the presence of spirit this is why a conscious walk in nature can be so restorative for us.
This 3 hour workshop offers an opening and deepening of this sacred experience and offers a practical and effective method of healing that you can use in your life as and when needed. We start with our ceremony with respect and moving our perception to see that land as a sacred living spirit, one that is aware of us as we are aware of it. We then will walk out with the land to continue our work and finally return to share and integrate your experience where support will be given to carry on this opening in your everyday.
You will need to bring with you a question about something that you need support with or that is currently challenging you. There is no need to share this as we will be working to resolve this in a different way with the healing power of the natural world. Email oakenleaf@zoho.com
