Her unexpected 'Christian' introduction to the tarot
Her experience of having premonitions and how she distanced herself from that gift
What being a witch means to Clare
Why working with the seasons is an integral part of her practice
Her experience with SAD (seasonal affective disorder) and how she manages it
How she incorporates magick into her everyday life
Her magickal morning and evening routines
Magickal baths
Her favourite Yule craft of making Witch balls
How she became an author after she wrote the book her daughter needed to read
And much more
About Clare Cunliffe-Saunders
Clare is a voice actress and children’s author. “Seven Nights of Snuggles” is for young school children (age 5-8 approx) and was illusrated by Clare’s daughter Rose when she was only 9 years old. This is available in audiobook as well as paperback on Amazon.
Clare has enjoyed a wonderful career as an actress which has enabled her to travel around the world - her favourite job was understudying the lead female roles while playing a phantom in the West End & Broadway touring cast of The Rocky Horror Show.
Now she’s settled down in the countryside with her husband, two teenage children and newfoundland dog.
She currently spends her free time working on her new middle grade (8-12 year olds) children’s book series, “Charlotte & Arthur’s Adventures” - a three part series set in a fantasy land based on Clare’s favourite festivals from the Wheel of the Year and the elements.
The first is set during Yule, the second Samhain and third Ostara. Clare is aiming these books towards pagan families so that their children can have a book which describes their festivals in a way they can relate to and enjoy. The series is set in an imaginative fantasy land and draws on pagan figures, folklore and mythical creatures.
Clare can also be found giving little witchy tips and supporting small businesses and artists over on her new Instagram page at CottageWitchInTheWoods.
