Seren Hawley-Plows talks about the ancient world of folklore and rituals and her stunning seasonal guide, The Ancient Ways.

Step into an ancient world of rituals and folklore and join us for an evening with Seren Hawley-Plows as she talks about her stunning seasonal guide, The Ancient Ways.

Tales of gods and goddesses told around a crackling fire. The light of the rising sun streaming through an ancient site on a solstice morning. Hot cider poured over the roots of apple trees to wake them for the spring.

Told through the pagan wheel of the year, The Ancient Ways explores how nature changes throughout the seasons, looking at solstices, equinoxes, legends, and festivals and how these stories and traditions can help you deepen your connection with nature. Discover megalithic sacred sites where crowds still gather to see the sun rise and fall through doorways of the past. Meet Eostre, goddess of the spring and dawn or the Cailleach, queen of winter and the Green Man, a personification of the wild. Celebrate festivals like Beltane, a summer celebration of fire and fertility or Samhain, the festival of the dead and precursor to modern Halloween.

Hedgewitch Seren Hawley-Plows weaves these myths and stories together beautifully with tools and inspiration of how to bring the power of ancient tradition into a modern world and help you find magic in the wilds of nature.

With stunning illustrations, seasonal recipes and more, The Ancient Ways takes you on a journey of untamed landscapes, old communities and connection - the perfect gift for yourself or others!
