KING OF THE BIRDS ANIMATION STORY SONG FOR BIG AND LITTLE KIDS ALIKE
It's probably quite rare these days that a child listens to children's music just on its own (though hats off if you're doing that!).
Birthed in a digital age, current era kids are wired to need more stimuli to keep them engaged. AI has also completely changed the way that children's animation looks and feels. It seems to value perfection, is driven by existing data so contains nothing novel and often to me feels soulless. We are a very long way from the beautiful hand drawn watercolour scenes of Bambi.
This is why for the animation of King of the Birds Alex opted to create an animation that has this beautiful hand drawn aspect to it so you can really FEEL the artist behind the pens!
May it fly in beauty and reach the little ones (and inner little ones) it's created to delight - it certainly is lighting us up to see it come to life in this way

THIS VALENTINES DAY 🌹
RECLAIMING WILD ROSE = RECLAIMING OUR WILD FEMININE POWER
Rose has been locked in a commercial ritual since the 18th century when it became fashionable to give roses on valentines day to signify romantic love.
Nowadays every single commercial venture attempts to get you to buy more things (cards, chocolates, alcohol, sexy underwear, gifts) to express your 'love' - and hand over roses that have been bred to conform to standards they never set and mirror deeply how many women also feel obliged to conform to current beauty standards even if that means having operations and procedures that put them at risk etc.
WILD ROSE WILL NEVER TAKE PART
HER STEMS DO NOT FIT IN VASES
HER THORNS TOO CHALLENGING
SHE ROAMS WILD WHERE SHE CHOOSES
Wild roses medicine is ancient and intuitive—rooted in the body and woven through the heart. From a herbal perspective, wild rose (especially the hips and petals) has long been used by herbalists for healing the heart.
SELF LOVE COMES FIRST 🌹
Rose hips are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, supporting the immune system, reducing inflammation, and nourishing the tissues. Rose petals offer subtle nervous-system support, helping to calm anxiety, ease grief, and soften emotional tension held in the body. Energetically, rose is both cooling and uplifting—soothing heat, stress, and emotional agitation while restoring balance and resilience.
Emotionally and symbolically, wild rose medicine speaks to the paradox of tenderness and strength. Growing untamed, often among thorns and rocky soil, the wild rose embodies boundaries, self-protection, and sovereignty as much as beauty and openness. Its medicine teaches that softness does not mean weakness—that the heart can remain open without being unguarded. In emotional healing work, rose is often associated with grief processing, heart healing, and the restoration of trust after loss or trauma. It supports the reopening of the heart after contraction, helping people feel again without overwhelm.
On a deeper level, wild rose medicine invites remembrance of the natural self—the instinctive, intuitive, embodied being beneath conditioning and roles. It encourages a return to authenticity, sensual presence, and emotional honesty. The wild rose does not strive to be cultivated; it grows where it grows, as it is. In this way, its medicine is about belonging to yourself, honoring your natural rhythms, and reclaiming your inner wildness with grace, boundaries, and beauty intact. 🌹
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH THE ESSENCE OF WILD ROSE AND RECLAIMING YOUR WILD FEMININE POWER I CREATED THIS MEDITATION JOURNEY FOR YOU TO DO JUST THAT 🥰
This is the first meditation/ shamanic journey I have recorded in my studio - I made the music completely by myself with my voice and instruments which has been a deeply empowering process. 🌹

Off we go !! Today is a super powerful portal for so many reasons !
Lunar imbolc
Chinese new year
Solar ring of fire eclipse 12.01
New moon
During an eclipse the earth energy grid systems power down . It’s like a full cntrl/alt/delete reset moment for the entire planet . That moment of pause between the inbreath and the out. Our mother is endlessly giving to all her creations and when we align with this moment of pause and celebrate her we assist in this planetary reset
I’ll be making an Andean Despacho later today to give thanks for this moment of renewal and change … to celebrate all that’s been received so that so much more can come !

Today I made a despacho ayni -
🔥🐴 traditionally these were made for deeply practical reasons - to ensure the next harvest for the community and were a way of giving back for all that you have received
In the month of February in the Andes ALL FARMING STOPS AND THEY JUST MAKE OFFERINGS - the whole month ! Can you imagine 💞
In honour of this I’ve made my despacho master class training free for this month only (usually £55) - it takes about 45 mins to complete and you’ll need a pen and paper to hand to make notes .
The despacho is an art form in itself no two are ever the same so you can imagine my surprise when this one (a gift from one of my brothers in the lineage) had a horse in it ! It’s been here for 6 months so he had no way of knowing I’d use it now ! Well maybe he did on a cosmic level !! Hahah
The power of despacho never ceases to amaze me - they are full power manifestation tools - once you have given thanks for all you received you can ask for more !!
🙏💓🙏

Forwarded from Amanita Rising
I have heard a rumour that a Canadian company are attempting to bring to market an Amanita Muscaria beverage drink comparable to what Trip is to the CBD market . They are speaking about the idea of being able to get a drunk like high from the drink .
What do you think ? Do you think people will still connect with the spirit of Amanita muscaria through a product like this ?

A SONG FOR MENARCHE ❤️🌹
Myself & the young women of Bloom are super excited to be releasing this single which celebrates a pivotal point in a young woman's life- their menarche (first period) . For generations women have been told things like their period is "the curse", "unclean time' & "moon sickness" expressively women have been dismissed and undermined by phrases such as "oh she must be on her period" rather than understanding the deep alchemy of our monthly bleed.
Times are changing and we want to help our young women understand this is a time of empowerment when our intuition and our feelings are heightened as a superpower not as a curse. 🌀🩸🌀
Bloom is a project for young women that does just that . My daughter and I went to their menarche retreat last year in Spain and it was amazing to help my daughter have a very different menarche experience than mine. For more info on the retreat you can follow bloom mother and daughter here https://www.instagram.com/bloommotherdaughter?igsh=MWt0emtqMXUyY3poeA==
May this song reach those many young women its designed to inspire 🌺 🩸 🌺

This International Women’s Day, the masculine message is give to receive : basically - contribute more, work harder, and maybe recognition will follow.
But creativity doesn’t actually begin with giving.
It begins with receiving. 💞
Listening deeply, connecting in stillness, opening like a vessel or a conduit so that music can spill out of us.
So in celebration and recognition of international women’s day a group of amazingly female musicians have come together to do just that — to share the music that inspires us, shapes us, and reminds us why we make music in the first place.
The result is a collective playlist of songs celebrating women ! If you want to listen, the playlist is here 💞
