Nyt o vam athat. Pan ym digonat. Am creu am creat. O nawrith llafant. O ffwyth o frwytheu. O ffwyth duw dechreu. O vriallu a blodeu bre. O vlawt gwyd a godeu O prid o pridret. Pan ym digonet . O vlawt danat. O dwfyr ton nawvet.

Not of mother and father, When I was made, Did my Creator create me. Of nine-formed faculties, Of the fruit of fruits, Of the fruit of the primordial God, Of primroses and blossoms of time hill, Of the flowers of trees and shrubs. Of earth, of an earthly course, When I was formed. Of the flower of nettles, Of the water of the ninth wave.

Cad Goddeu ~ TALIESIN

Nine moons of making, nine bardic laws, nine waves of wisdom, nine.....

To know: learning about our past in order to understand our present and consciously create our future
To be: connection to place, nature, ourselves, spirit / source
To honour: honouring of the ancestors, spirit of place, nature, land, ourselves and each other
To listen: divination and the art of deep listening to life’s whispers
To ask: working with indigenous elders from other traditions in order to learn and deepen our own practice
To dare: deep, creative, boundary breaking exploration and innovation informed by knowledge, experience and intuition.
To create: encouraging expression in all forms, vocal, physical, artistic, literary and ritual
To give: to channel our knowledge, experience and energy for the good of others and our earth
To love: finding a deeper connection with ourselves (our past and future), with others, with our Earth and the universe through this work.
