From the earliest times, our lands were marked with stone circles and sacred enclosures where the spirits were honoured and wisdom sought, to the secret holy wells and springs where once our native goddesses were revered and worshipped. Rivers and trees, hilltops and caves; each have always held their own spirits, and our relationship with these beings has endured through the centuries.
