Silver's Threads Book 1

Spinning Colours Darkly

Beschreibung

Life can be seen as a tapestry of tightly woven threads, each thread linking everything in the web of life, then a darkening colour, a harsh sound, a haunting cry, ripples through the warp and weft to vibrate the threads of time. Ancient and mysterious bones, discovered on the Yorkshire Wolds hold a secret hidden for centuries, which must not be revealed... A Grove of Wytches meets to celebrate the Mabon Rite of Equinox in Australia but strange energies are afoot that go beyond mortal comprehension... Four young women are brought together in the little Spa town of Springsmeet to work out the riddle of the inexplicable disappearance of their friend and teacher of the Old Ways; a celebrated writer and lecturer. One, a gifted seer, musician and weaver, will learn of her ancestry long concealed in the veil ...one will learn of her natural gifts as an artist and writer ...one will be the gentle guide and healer who nurtures and supports everyone but herself and one must fight to control the anger and pain from the past, to temper and hone it into a tool of great compassion. All must learn to believe in their own gifts and in the Magick their teacher showed them ...to travel the portals into the realms where the Fae reside at the times of the year when the veil is thin and the Old Ones walk the land. Many will step forward to assist them in their search as blight spreads sticky dark threads across all the realms to the Birthing Tree where all life must return one day and where for one of them the greatest test to face is that Magick might indeed be real... They must travel the inner realms to discover the truths of life itself...

Autor

Renowned clairvoyant and a teacher of the Western Mysteries at Daylesford School of Arcane Knowledge, Penny Reilly is an initiated Bard and Ovate in the Tradition of the Druid. Penny has a passion for the Old Ways of the British Isles; returning there this year to carry out research for her nonfiction books her second series 'Cloak of Magick' and a Cornish folklore volume, forthcoming. She feels that the gentle path of the Druid is the path to take for a sustainable future, connecting us to the land, no matter where we live on the planet. She describes herself as a 'nature writer'. Her poetry, in-spired by Nature, is her connection to her personal environment. Her own visionary experiences are very much a part of her storyline, poetry and lyrics ...this is her sixth published book. Her controversial series Silver's Threads is still gaining popularity and the poems in this little volume, in part are inspired by this five book fantasy work. Penny moved to Sydney, Australia in 1980 and to the central highlands of Victoria with her husband David, 20 years ago. They share space with an 'all sorts' terrier, an old tabby cat, a small flock of hens and a fat wombat fondly known as 'chocolat', who has adopted them. Keen gardeners, they are becoming self-sufficient on their beautiful rolling acres on the Great Divide; their blended mob of children are long 'grown and flown' the coop. Together they own Daylesford Tarot Readers, 'earthly rites bookshop' and Beyond the Gate Gallery and Nursery, which features Penny's other passion, photography.
