Path of Pollen
Pollen pathways
Humming with gold.
The amber thread
That tethers us to Life.
Ancient women
Weavers of soul,
Protect us
Guide us
As we traverse the way
Home.
This is the third piece to emerge as part of my 4 part Collection ‘From within the Hive’. Captured here on Film, this piece was born from the ancient spiritual pathways that we have walked with alongside the Bees.
My inspiration was born from learning of the ‘Melissa’- female bee guardians who practised Bee Shamanism. Their connection to the womb, the cycles of life and the sacredness of Earth is infused into this Shawl.
Cast from rare breed English Wools, naturally dyed thread, wild local Dartmoor locks, rare raw ethical silks and vintage thread- this piece is entirely bespoke and its essence will never be made again.
This textile aims to cocoon its Wearer in the gentle fires of illumination. It seeks to wrap you in the joy of life, the hope omnipresent in All and the courage to stick to the red threaded path. It honours transitions and doorways, it will hold you in your Becoming.
This Shawl comes with a Hand carved stick pin created by my Partner Jules from foraged Dartmoor Oak, and oiled with organic flax seed. He has shaped it carefully and created a wand that enhances the wearability, magic and potency of the Shawl.
I have written about the story of and inspiration behind the collection on a seperate page to my website titled ‘From Within the Hive’ if you feel curious to find out more.
