Greetings campers and welcome to the Fae month of November. The air is crisp and we have just finished Samhain. Now we wind down, we slow down, and take stock of what was a success of the this year and what we may need to change for the coming year. And while you do that let me tell you some history and lore of the Fae. Or the Good Folk, if you prefer. This is part one where I do a little history with a few stories. Part 2 will be about other "fae" folk and a few more stories!

And don't forget if you would like to sign up for my Patreon page I share a little drink and divination! Drinks are usually a tea but may be some other beverage as well as a little divination. Happy Camping!

Greetings campers, weavers and everyone who loves Black Cats. Actually, everyone who loves cats in general! Tonight's episode is all about the mystery of Black Cats. From the Cat Sith of Scotland to the the Matagot of France! And what a perfect time to discuss this episode than on Halloween or as some of like to call it Samhain! So cozy on up to the fire, grab your favorite drink to keep you warm and don't be too surprised if you happen to see a spooky spectre or two because all are welcome here at the campfire!

Greetings campers I am thrilled to announce I have created a Patreon page! This page will help keep the campfires going and as a thank you for your support I will be sharing a little Drink, which will be anything from teas to coffees and anything that is great to have by campfire as well as a little Divination! I have been a practitioner for 13 years and have experience with many forms. So head on over, grab your favorite mug, get cozy by the fire and let’s enjoy and little drink and divination!

Greetings everyone! I hope you have had a chance to get out to the green. For this episode of campfire ghost stories we are discussing just a few of the sacred creatures of India. And I will also share with you a bit about the Avatars of Vishnu! I hope you enjoy this episode. If you listened to my intro you will know that my video will not be the usual weaving project but will be about one of my English Angora Rabbits, Apollo! He is a spoiled one! So if you would like to check him out you can head over to my You Tube channel, Cottage Weaver of Fiber and Tales.

Hello everyone! Well before episode 19 gets released I just want to touch base on the video that will be accompanying this podcast. Instead of a weaving project you will get to see one of my creatures, Apollo. Due to life being life, I had to switch a few things up. But if you are not one for the videos and choose to just listen to the podcast than no worries as Episode 19 will be released on Wednesday! Happy camping, weaving and I hope you get out to the green!

Welcome friends! It is I, Shannon, and next up on my tales of sacred creatures is Dragons. Not the token fire breathers. But the ones who were worshiped for their elemental and divine essence. These are the legends of the serpentine dragons of the Japanese, Australian and Chinese.

Side notes: for some reason the background music didn't take when I uploaded the podcast but its audible on the YouTube channel, Cottage Weaver of Fiber and Tales. So, I apologize for that.

In any event I hope you enjoy one of the most impressive sacred creatures. One that I find fascinating and very elemental.

Welcome to the green my friends! I am here with another tale to share and this one is of the fishy sort. In todays tale I tell you about the vast history of the mermaid. Not just the pretty song singing type you may be used to. I tell you about the sort that have been seen all over the globe. From Japan to Norway and even down to Australia. The history of the mermaid is vast and I only just skimmed the surface with this episode. If you would like to not only listen to this tale but also catch glimpse of my weaving project, they you can head over to my YouTube page, Cottage Weaver of Fiber and Tales to see my latest work.
