Bonfires & Castles is a podcast dedicated to discussing history and ancient wisdom. 
 In this episode, I discuss ways to stay grounded this spring, especially if you are feeling as though the Firehorse is dragging you!

How are you staying grounded this spring and moving forward into the new year (with the Spring being the true new year!)?

In this episode, I am excited to welcome Tempest front man, Lief Sorbye.
 Lief is among the founding members of the Celtic Rock band, and since the late 1980s, Tempest has been bringing their songs steeped in traditional Celtic Folk music, ancient wisdom and modern rock.
 After a brief hiatus, Tempest is back on the road with their new tour, and there may be a few surprises for both fans and those new to their music!
 Join me in this conversation with Lief as we talk of his new autobiography (out now!), what life on the road is like for Tempest, and some both spooky and memorable moments on the road!

check Tempest out at http://tempestmusic.com (and see if they're coming to a city near you!)

this episode is available at both the ‎⁨@TiffanyAfterHours⁩  and Bonfires and Castles podcast

🖤For this special Friday the 13th episode, I welcome back fhe AMAZING Susannah Sprague (whose done everything from Playboy, Reality TV shows like The Surreal Life, Fitness Competitor, Life Mentor, and also one of my co-stars in the new film Midnight Massacre)! 
 In this episode, the conversation goes deep as we discuss the concept of journey back to self and staying grounded as the world goes crazy and new beginnings as the year of the Firehorse approaches.
 AND also the true origins of the day Friday the 13th.

And because I feel this episode is so poingent, I'm dropping it on both my After Hours and Bonfires & Castles podcast, as the latter gets into history and ancient wisdom. And Susannah and I get into a lot of that in this episode.
 Follow Susannah on IG and Tiktok at @susannahssidequests and @susannahunleashed 

Enjoy and Happy Friday the 13th (day of the Goddess)!

I was going to release this episode in October but I felt moved to release it now (perhaps by the Cailleach herself!). 

As we enter the season of the Crone it is time for us all to ground ourselves, go within and allow for our inner wisdom to speak to us. It is a time for stillness, a time for facing and alchemizing our shadows. Telling that inner child 'I see you and I hear you.'

The Cailleach is returning from the forest to reign during the colder months, beginning on Samhain (Halloween). With the crazy energies right now, be still, stay focused and listen to the inner wisdom of the Winter Crone, being open to what she has to show you.

This episode was recorded in Crow's Haven at Castle Blood. The video version of this episode will be released at my After Hours vlogging channel (im also getting the hang of my new microphone so please excuse the occasional mic popping!) as part of my 31 Days of Halloween, when you will actually get a little look at Crow's Haven. Or see it in person by visiting the amazing inhabitants of Castle Blood this Halloween season!

What scared you as a child? Or what story and urban legend left a profound impact on you. For many born in the later years of the 20th century it was the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark Trilogy. In this episode I talk of my own experience growing up with this popular series and how it influenced my own storytelling going forward. 

Did you grow up with the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books? If so, which story had the most lasting impression on you?

Greetings! In this episode I discuss the significance and ancient traditions of the festival of Lughnasadh/Lammas. In addition we get into how we can incorporate this festival of first Harvest and first fruits into our own modern lives, bringing forth the wisdom of our ancestors. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode and I would love to hear about how you're celebrating this next turn of the Celtic Wheel.

In this special episode of the Bonfires & Castles podcast, we pay a little homage to the Summer Solstice and the ancient festival of Litha as the Celtic Wheel of life makes yet another turn. 

The history and traditions of the festival are discussed, Midsummer in the faerie realm, along with how you can honor the first day of summer and how I am personally spending today!

So grab a piece of earth to sit on and enjoy this Summer Solstice and Litha!

How are you spending today?🧚‍♀️🌱
