Heron- Mother

Keeper of the waters melodies.
Grey coated crone of the rivers edge.
Marsh Walker,
Stream Spinner.

You feel vast and ancient and holy.

Spin-Mother
Olde-Mother
New-Mother
Bird of screeching song,
Bringer of the Dawn
Bright spark of morning.
This cloth honours your Calling.

The Heron has been present in my life as a Way-finder- one who guides the edges and has been the guardian to many of my threshold crossings.

I’ve visited Heron through cloth a handful of times, and each time I’m presented with the humble and immense power of this beautiful bird.

For me, the Heron holds the mantle of strange grace and primordial essence, a wildling who reminds me to stay true to the raw essence of my aliveness.

This is the fifth piece to arise as part of my Becoming Mother collection. It honours the teachings of Heron in this path of Becoming Mother through the essence of fierce femininity, mystery and an unyielding honouring of the ancient pathways.

The Shawl celebrates a variety of British wools and local wild locks, naturally dyed madder red thread, wild harvested penduncle and muga silks and uk alpaca fleece.

There is the option to buy a hand crafted Shawl pin, shaped by my Partner from Local foraged Devon Oak, finished with Organic Linseed oil. You'll find the listing in the 'products' section of the website.

There is always the option to pay in instalments. Get in contact via email if you would like to discuss a payment plan.

With Gratitude to Lauren of Bare Folk Photography for the beautiful Imagery.
