Today is St Martin’s day, old Halloween, marking the end of harvest and the beginning of Winter. It is a time for bonfires, lantern processions and feasting. Welsh folklore tells us is a night of ill omens. Owls hoot, meteors fall and the Cwn Annwn (ghostly hounds) roam.
Raised a rural hillbilly in Baptist and Pentecostal churches gives my goth heart joy to explore defunct European cathedrals and I especially adore these tomb covers in the floors and walking my commoner ass over these dead rich people with the hoard of tourists that come through these days
My love for Stephanie Pui-Mun Law is infinite. Her trees crawling with goblins and wood spirits, her empyrean nymph-like creatures with majestic horns and wings and robes, her magical forest-scapes and glimmering pools of water, the chaotic yet balanced frenzy of stampeding beasts, the rose encrusted tombs, the cosmic spilling of stars and faeries and shells and flower-dust— all captivated me, enchanted me, and cradled me for so many years, and I wanted to share with all of you!!!
