Our recent working group gathering in preparation for the Heart of Yew Lughnasadh Festival was held at the beautiful Moelyci Farm in Wales. Over ten dedicated community members joined us, along with their children, for a weekend filled with meaningful work, shared learning, and deep connection with the land.
In an increasingly digital and fragmented world, the ancient wisdom of community is more vital than ever. At its core, community is more than just a group of people living in proximity—it's a spiritual bond that nourishes the soul, uplifts the spirit, and fosters a deep sense of belonging. When we come together with shared intentions and open hearts, we tap into a powerful force that transcends the individual and resonates with the divine.
The Yew tree, with its ancient presence and eerie beauty, has long been a symbol of mystery and reverence. Throughout history, it has woven itself into the folklore and spiritual practices of various cultures, particularly in Europe. This sacred tree, known for its longevity and resilience, is more than just a botanical marvel—it is a living symbol of life, death, and rebirth.
