Continue reading →: Final Rite of Dedication
I really want to show off my new tattoo. I’m not someone who jumps at a tattoo for the sake of it – as it’s been nine years between my first and second. My first is a simple pentacle on my back below my neck, and this makes my second.…

Continue reading →: Coming to terms
Every now and then you need to stop and feel. You need to stop and feel the shades of grass between your toes and the earth beneath your feet. Feel the suns warmth on your skin, warming your soul. Feel the rush of wind through your hair. And then you…

Continue reading →: Moving On (The Reclaiming Battle Cry)
Something happened, and I’m welcoming it with open arms. Time frame wise, I’m saying it happened once I turned twenty-eight earlier this month. But it all happened within days, weeks of each other. Within a few weeks of each other, I became a Dedicant and Daughter of Herne the Hunter;…

Continue reading →: Honouring the Past, and Embracing the Present
I’m happy in Sydney. I love living here. With the exception of the humidity, I love the weather. I love feeling the sunshine on my skin in August amongst the chill of the air. I love seeing rain, and tilting my head back and opening my mouth, letting the drops…

Continue reading →: The Journey of (medicated) Self Discovery
After being free from them for almost three years, I gave in. I went to my Doctor and said I needed help. I can’t do it on my own anymore, not now that I’m working full time. As a result, I’m on new anti-depressants. My mood swings had gotten so…

Continue reading →: Withdrawing
Within the confusion of where I am spiritually, within the darkness that winter still brings, and accompanied by the voices that won’t be quiet within my head, I think it might be time to completely withdraw from civilisation for a little bit. And by “completely” I do mean with the…

Continue reading →: Disconnection
I’m going through “that thing” once again. I hate the feeling of disconnectedness, which will come back for very small intervals, allowing you feel joy onto to be ripped away from it again. It may be that I just need to walk barefoot on the grass. I’ll be doing that…

Continue reading →: Embracing a modern-day Gypsy lifestyle
There’s something quite exciting about planning for the future. Really planning, not just sitting back and seeing where life takes you, which is how the Muggle and I have been treating life these last four years. In little under a month it will be Imbolc, and our four year anniversary.…

Continue reading →: Full Moon Ponderings
When I first began practicing, I followed Wicca. Not for any particular reason, more because I was introduced to Scott Cunningham and, at the time, it was the only book I was aware of for beginners. There are so many out on the market now, I’d hate to be a…

Continue reading →: Reincarnation and Past Life Regression
How far do you go in the belief of reincarnation? Do you believe that we remain as humans? Can we become animals, or even trees or strawberries? (If you like Family Guy, you’ll get the strawberry reference!) Or do you believe, much like my husband, that this is it. We…

Continue reading →: Ramblings of a sick woman
I just want to explain that by “sick” I mean I have a wussy version of the flu. My glands are swollen, my throat is raw from coughing, I’m congested, and to top it all off I have a tooth ache. And now I’m done with the self pity! I’m…
Hello,
I’m Rowan
Welcome to BookOfEucalypt, my little piece of the internet since 2011. I write about all things Paganism, Herne the Hunter, my path, with bits of poetry and short stories thrown in for good measure.
