Our streets are haunted by fabulous beasts, parades of uneasy shadows. They are haunted by our extinction commerce, by our trade in the erasure of awe. The town is ghosted by the gods we have spurned, the wonder we have lost. – #DAKilroy

There isn't just one hidden, occulted England. There are hundreds. I am from the England of the wires. The England of the electric ley, The Hum. A criss-crossing above your head England where there's no such thing as silence in the fields. – Signal-catcher Rose, ex-Pylon Person

You may call them corpse roads, coffin paths. You may call them lych lines, wraith ways. What you can't not call those old processional paths of burial is empty. Not a single one of them is without folklore and phantom, not one isn't ghost-soaked. – Dr. M. Benn #FolkloreThursday

I am a witch. I do not fear the places where the land growls, but I do respect them. I will not swerve away from where the land tells its anger, but rather I will listen to its outrage. – #EmilyBanting, 1982 #Witchcraft

The witch walks the mysteries. The witch navigates by listening to the song of the land, the wooden choir of the wood. She converses with genii locorum and truly knows her place. – #EmilyBanting, 1981 #WitchWednesday

For the witch, the wood is always wyrd. The wood is always full of green magics, root wisdom and spirited conversation. Our temples temples are tangled, are threshold. Our temples are living and strong. – #EmilyBanting, 1982 #WitchWednesday

Do you know what some of the most powerful magical words anyone has ever uttered are? Words that open portals to the past; unhinge gates to other worlds; unleash a flood of magic; summon a horde of monsters? They are: “Once upon a time and far away …” - #CLNolan #Storytelling

I only recently learned about the cult classic on BBC Radio 4 “The Shipping Forecast”. This #map shows the regions the program refers to. Probably very boring if you aren’t British or into maritime navigation. Source: buff.ly/2oaLSGd

We must be honest as witches. There are days when we find nothing but sour omens. Our cloud-telling offers no comfort, our walking of field edges harvests no harbingers of happiness. Not all witch-walking can be a navigation towards joy. – #EmilyBanting, 1981 #Witchcraft

The witch is a creature of thresholds. They are engines of her magic. She finds them everywhere. Shore. Hedge. The last spill of light that marks the limits of the village before the feral power of the land reasserts itself. - #EmilyBanting, 1982 #WitchWednesday

The Japanese Snow Fairy, is one of the deadliest predatory birds ever designed by, well, the Devil I assume! Its claws exude a terrifying 0.000000013 foot pounds of pressure, and its razor sharp beak can puncture nearly any light paper bag, if the bag is wetted first. Doom!

Fucking sick of scenes like this. Get this everywhere, REPOST if you want this madness to end, and these cowards to be put behind bars. Pathetic excuse for “men”. Huge love to the sabs on the ground trying to stop this.

Fox hunting MUST end. RT if you agree! And please support brilliant groups like HullWildLifeProtectors who are out in the fields standing up to the hunts.

Crows call the morning, hop the mist and shout their dreams of the night. Cunning folk check spiderwebs, dewed-silk thrumming with omens for the unfolding day. Children pull on their porridge force fields.
