The land doesn't hold its shape that way. Two breaths, then: in through the nose, a second short sip stacked on top, out long and ragged. Three times.
That second sip is the part that actually reaches the nerve.Cùm do chasan air an talamh — keep your feet on the ground.
What am I still asking permission to call mine? Ask me...

Your body has been braced since somebody said the small mean word at a fairground. Bracing isn't weakness — it's a nervous system doing the job it evolved for. The trouble is nobody ever tells the body when the thing is over, so it holds that shape into September, into a jaw that clicks and a shoulder that will not come down.

And take the warning as seriously as the remedy: same family as aspirin, so if aspirin's off the table for you, so is this. Blood thinners, pregnancy, a child with a fever — no. Ask your pharmacist. She'd rather you asked than didn't.

Seileach. Willow bark, and it is not folklore standing next to medicine — it is where the medicine came from. Salicin in the inner bark, converted by your gut into salicylic acid, which is aspirin's own chemistry with the factory left off
A teaspoon or two of dried cut bark, just-boiled water, lid on, fifteen minutes. Wet fence post with a bitter finish that arrives late #Herbalism #Herbs #WillowBark #Apothecary #Foraging #Gàidhlig #Druid #Folklore #Gardening #BloomScrolling #Nature #Cooking

Sgrìobh i: #27: An Dealbh Sgriosail
Sin thu fhèin! 👋Tha an t-àm ann a-nis buannaiche na farpais-sgrìobhaidh a bh’ againn san Lùnastal fhoillseachadh! 🏆Ach an toiseach, seo an cuspair a-rithist:Tha cuideigin a’ lorg uidheam-smachd cèin a chuireas an ùine air ais deich mionaidean.Dè thachras an uair sin?Someone finds a remote control that rewinds time by 10 minutes.What happens next?Cothrom èibhinn eile, tha sinn an dòchas, gus do chuid sgilean-sgrìobhaidh a chur gu feum! Ghabh triùir pàirt san fharpais - ’s iad Gwen, Steffi agus Jenny. Ach chan fhaod sinn ach aon bhuannaiche a-mhàin a thaghadh. Agus an turas seo……’s e Gwen a th’ ann. Meal do naidheachd! 🥇Leughaidh agus cluinnidh tu sgeulachd Gwen gu h-ìosal ⬇️ Seo dhut “An Dealbh Sgriosail”. A-rithist, dh’fhàs mi beagan cruthachail leis an eadar-theangachadh gu Beurla.
An Dealbh Sgriosail
Gwen[Gàidhlig]Bha Lilidh na h-oileanach ealain agus cha robh ach beagan uairean a thìde air fhàgail gus a pròiseact deireannach a chrìochnachadh. B’ e seo dealbh mòr de mhuir stoirmeil air an robh i air seachdainean de dh’obair a chur seachad, ach bha e fhathast a’ coimhead sgriosail!Nuair a ghabh Lilidh ceum air ais a choimhead air, bhuail i uidheam smachd iomallach an telebhisein far a’ bhùird. Rug i air dìreach mus do bhuail e an làr, ach bhrùth i am putan dearg gun fhiosta. Gu h-obann, las an seòmar agus mhothaich i gun robh an gleoc air leum air ais deich mionaidean...…

The question I asked in today's issue, and I mean it as a real one: what have you actually turned your face toward this week, and what did it cost you to keep looking? I'm answering every one of these in the comments under the piece.

The goldenrod does not check the roll call, and tonight neither do you. Carry what's yours.
Set the rest down at the door like muddy boots — because it is muddy, and it isn't yours, and you've been hauling it up the stairs all week like a martyr with a subscription.

Tha sinn fhathast an seo, agus tha an talamh a' cuimhneachadh — we are still here, and the earth remembers.
Put one hand flat on the nearest solid thing. Table, wall, tree, floor. Leave it there for one whole breath before you read another headline.
The empire can schedule its shabby little votes for four in the morning if it wants. #Gàidhlig #Gaelic #Alba #MastoDaoine #Druid #Folklore #Lùnastal #Blessing #Solidarity #QueerNews #Seasons

Deep in the dog days now. Past Lughnasadh, into the long ripening.
The first grain is cut. The tomatoes have gone from a promise to a problem, and every gardener I know is handing them off in grocery sacks to anyone slow enough to get cornered.
Tha an talamh a' cuimhneachadh — the earth remembers. It remembers this exact tilt of light. Lughnasadh #WheelOfTheYear #Gardening #Harvest #Tomatoes #Gaidhlig #ScottishGaelic #Druid #Pagan #Seasonal #Phenology #SlowLiving #Solidarity

“Where are our roots? How do we make ourselves at home? How does the stranger come to feel at home? Maybe we need to remind ourselves of what a family is, what it could be, and what it stands for, to begin to make sense of the wider world.”
