Instagram post 2176347259746504973_3934249308 THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO ||⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So many times I imagine how Iberia was thousands of years ago, before the rise of civilization. No cities, no cars, no constant noise pollution, no artificial lights in the night. Oak woodlands covered most of the land. Bears, wolves, aurochs, wild goats, deer and so many other roamed free all across the peninsula. Rivers run wild, snaking over the landscape, feeding millions of beings. The Milky Way was visible from everywhere. A walk along the coast meant absolutely no sign of plastic pollution. You could drink from a stream or a lake without fear of becoming sick. All was in balance. Relationship was vital.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When I imagine this, it's like a vision before my eyes. The concept of linear time is momentarily lost and I see a glimpse of a parallel world, yet very much alive and real, just there, waiting for the right moment to manifest itself once again... perhaps just waiting for us to remember.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Our Ancestors still live through us. They are not gone as long as we remember them. The Old Ways cannot be forgotten. They are the key for our survival. But first, we need to remember how to listen, specially to the Other-than-Human community... that's the first step.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In photo: Felted Collar "Garça", available in my shop (link in bio)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #woolcraft #woolfelt #felting #theoldways #slowfashion #handmadeclothing #sacredfeminine #woolenwear #ethicalfashion ⁣⁣⁣#wildanacrow #rawfleece #feltedcollar #woolwitch #rawfleeceisbeautiful #feltcollar #woolcollar #sheepskinshawl #wildwool #stoneage #vikingstyle #ancestors #sustainablefashion #craftswoman #ethicalstyle #wool #vegetarianfur #handmade #feltedsheepskin #leatherfree #faefashion

Ataegina (in photo) is waiting for you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This is the last sheepskin of this batch, so grab her while you can! I hope to add new sheepskins to the shop sometime soon, probably after I finally figure out where my new tannery will be ehehe well, actually, I'll have to tan a few skins for a personal project, so depending on how that goes, I might have new sheepskins in the shop later than hoped... hmm, let's see... but no worries, I'll keep you posted 😊 ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #wildanacrow #ancestralskills #prehistoricskills #traditionalskills #bushcraftlife #bornagainferal #rewild #madebyhand #getoutside #paleoliving #animist #livingwild #celticpagan #sheepskins #forestwitch #moodyforest #bushcraftgear #feralskills #ferallife #celtiberian #thewildsideoflife #wildwoman #womenwhorunwiththewolves #witchesofinstagram #pagansofinstagram #hidetanning #bushcraft #campingadventures #camping #campinglife
Instagram post 2174905182658648332_3934249308 I'm so tired. Mentally. Emotionally.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The state of my homeland is unbearable to me. There's the lithium mining to fuel the so called "energetic transition" for Europe, without considering the long term impacts: extreme water use and pollution (and we have so little water already...), destruction of whole landscapes and ways of life, risk of expropriation. There's the construction of a new airport nearby Lisbon (due to the increase of mass tourism) next to a protected wetland area in the Tejo River, extremely important for thousands of migrating birds every year. There's the plantation of monocultures of eucalyptus to produce paper for all Europe, turning our native biodiverse forests into green deserts that burn every Summer, killing thousands of plants and animals, and leaving so many homeless. There's the dredging of the Sado River, destroying such an important fish nursery and ecosystem, putting in risk the food source for our Sado Dolphins. There's the construction of the Alto Tâmega dam, and all the other dams we already have and will have, that destroy Rivers and flood whole villages and ancient monuments... And adding to all of this, all that is happening in the world, to the Other-than-Human community, to Indigenous Peoples and to all those who are vulnerable... and of course, my own personal life, struggles, deep anxiety, doubts, ocd... this is all too much. I'm overwhelmed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Personally, having alone time in Nature is what helps me the most, but lately my mind has been so busy that even in those moments I don't seem to be able to quiet down... I feel a pain in my chest, I feel restless, anxious, agitated. The fact I'm quite isolated probably doesn't help... I miss community so much.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What do you do when it's all too much for you? How do you manage to keep seeing the beauty in the world? I desperately need to quiet down to hear the wise voices of my Ancestors whispering in my ears, giving me hope for the future. I need to keep my inner flame alive.
Instagram post 2171274124950236823_3934249308 FOR THE ANCESTORS' ALTAR ||⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the photo you can see "Lua", a small handtanned sheepskin Moon-shaped piece whose membrane side was painted with Ochre. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lua features different symbols. There’s a serpentiform, several dots, a half circle, four lines, a zigzag, a tectiform, a segmented cruciform and a single line. All of these symbols were found in caves and rock art of Europe and other parts of the world, painted and/or carved in stone by our Ancestors.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lua was created as an altar piece in honour of our old Ancestors. It can also be hanged on a wall or used around the neck in ritual.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You can see more pictures of Lua as well as of other handmade items for sale in my website (link in bio) ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #iceageart #paleolithic #altarpelt #pagansofinstagram #samhainritual #prehistoricart #antepassados #petroglyph #ritual #ancientwisdom #animist #paintedsheepskin #samhainaltar #paintedhide #stoneage #caveart #folkmagic #livingwild #ancestors #neolithic #shamanism #paganaltar #ancestors #animistsofinstagram #paganritual #animismo #backtotheroots #wheeloftheyear #wildanacrow #witchessociety
