The Pandeiro or Adufe is an ancient Portuguese/Ibe The Pandeiro or Adufe is an ancient Portuguese/Iberian frame drum with origins in North Africa. Traditionally, it used to be played by women - the Adufeiras -, whom would play it in religious celebrations and romarias, as well as in local festivities and even in the work fields. Sheep or goat skins are still used for the skin of the drum. It is believed that its square shape is filled with symbolic meaning, most likely connected with fertility, and in the North of Portugal and Galicia, the play of the Pandeiro can sometimes be connected with witchcraft, as it is said that, at night, the witches come out to play the Adufe. Nowadays, both women and men play this beautiful instrument, which is still built by the hands of the local people.⁠ .⁠ One of my favourite Adufe songs is "Cantaria" by Dazkarieh, it is simply filled with this primal energy I can't describe. I've shared this and a couple of other songs featuring adufes in my blog, including old b&w videos of women playing as well as a beautiful song from Galicia! To listen to them all, simply click on the link in my bio, choose this same photo, and it will take you there. I hope you like those songs as much as I do ❤️⁠ .⁠ In photo: This pic is a repost, but I just love it so much! Here you can see my Pandeiro Mirandês, typical from the North of Portugal, hand made by the artisan Paulo Meirinhos ♥️⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #folklore #portuguesefolklore #folclore #folcloreportugues #bruxasdoinstagram #witchesofinstagram #adufeiras #pandeiro #adufe #ancientmusic #pandeiromirandes #portuguesewoman #wildwoman #womenwhorunwiththewolves #livingtraditions #musicatradicional #ancestralskills #ancestralwomen #ancestors #iberianmusic #paganwitch #greenwitch #forestwitch #pagansofig #animistsofinstagram #darknature #wildanacrow #wilderfolk #folkmagic #bruxarianatural
Throwback to a beautiful Autumn afternoon, spent i Throwback to a beautiful Autumn afternoon, spent in one of the most magical places I know ❤️⁠ .⁠ If you've been following me on my stories, then you must know that I have done no other thing than tanning lately.

Now I'm starting to prepare for the clothes making part... oh, this will be fun.⁠ .⁠ I plan to share more about what I'm up to in my blog and why I'm on a race against time ahaha Stay tuned, I should post it very soon at my website, filled with photos and details ❤️⁠ .⁠ In the meantime, I truly hope 2020 is treating you well so far!

The end of a year, of a decade, of a cycle 💫 He The end of a year, of a decade, of a cycle 💫 Here in Portugal, ancient rituals will be repeated once again. Today, we will light huge fires in the centre of villages, eat 12 raisins and ask for 12 wishes, climb a chair with the right foot, go outside to hit two metal pot lids into one another to send away any bad energies and evil spirits, wear blue underwear for good luck, try a new piece of garment, eat good traditional food, dance a lot, hug and kiss our beloved ones, and so much more ❤️⁠ .⁠ Well, we'll not ALL be doing all this, and definitely not everything at the same time 😆 personally, since I'm still recovering from my flu, I'll spend most of my time by the fireplace, with a blanket over my knees, enjoying the family time. I'll also try to ignore the fireworks while I eat my 12 raisins, ask for my 12 wishes and hug my beloved ones ❤️⁠ .⁠ Happy new year, dear friends! ❤️ ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #happynewyear2020 #darknature #sombrebeings #soulful_moments #moody_nature #the_gallery_of_magic #moodygrams #folkmagic #wildanacrow #witchesofinstagram #pagansofinstagram #artofmystery #fairytaleforest #forestmagic #fairytales #naturemagic #forestkeeper #instacollage #capturedconcepts #animistsofinstagram #moodyphotography #digitalart #digitalcollage #mysteriousplaces #dreamworld #photoart #digitalmanipulation #artofvisuals #peacefulnessofnature #hauntinglybeautiful
Hello dear friends, how are you? I hope these last Hello dear friends, how are you? I hope these last days treated you well! Personally, these last two weeks have been filled with much appreciated family time, way too much food (and chocolate), some tree planting and the preparation for my Stone Age week in two months (!!!). Now that the New Year is right around the corner, I feel happy to start a new cycle of my life.⁠ .⁠ What a decade... I have so much to be thankful for. Perhaps I'll manage to write it all in a future post but, for now, I'll let my body move by the tanning work while my mind enters a movement meditation, finding the opportunity to be quieter than usual.⁠ .⁠ I promise I'll come back to a more regular posting schedule in 2020. Till then, stay tuned to my insta stories as I'll definitely keep sharing relevant content there, now specially related to hide tanning (and hopefully a bit of travelling to the mountains too)! So if that interests you... stay around and enjoy 😊 also, I'm preparing a new website feature for the beginning of next year, so stay tuned for that! ehehe In the meantime, have a beautiful day! ♥️⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #animistsofinstagram #darknature #wilderfolk #folkmagic #paganismo #hidetanning #womenhidetanning #curtumesportugal #idadedapedra #animist #spiderphotography #wildanacrow #bornagainferal #rewildyourlife #animism #ancestralskills #livingwild #peledeborrego #sheepskins #traditionalskills #backtotheroots #iloveportugal #witchesofinstagram #prehistoricskills #pagansofinstagram #primitiveskills #ancestralcraft #stoneage #pagansofig #greenwitchcraft
Teixo, or Yew, is a sacred tree for many peoples, Teixo, or Yew, is a sacred tree for many peoples, including to the ancient tribes of Iberia before (and even during) Roman colonization. A Tree of Winter, of Medicine, of Strength and Flexibility, of Death and Rebirth. In Iberia, she was connected to the deity "Eburianus".⁠ .⁠ «Eburianus is a deity recorded in a tombstone from Duratón (Segovia) whose name stems from the Celtic *eburos, or "yew" in Gaulish, which is the basis for toponyms like Eburobrittium (Évora) among the Lusitanians, or the Ebura found in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, the Celtiberian gens of the Eburanci or peoples like the Eburones or Eburovices in Gaul. ⁠ .⁠ The yew tree had extraordinary importance in the Celtic world; a passage by Caesar narrates that Catuvolcus, chief of the Eburones, poisoned himself with yew. Florus noted that when the Cantabrians were under siege on Mons Medullius by legate Gaius Furnius in the year 22 BC, most of them took their lives either by slaying themselves with a sword, letting themselves burn in the fire or taking a poison extracted ex arboribus taxeis, that is, from the yew tree.» - Francisco Marco Simón⁠ .⁠ .⁠ Yew is fascinating to me, and I've been searching about local Iberian folklore related to this sacred tree. I'm curious... do you have a close relationship with Yew? Perhaps a personal relationship or one more communal? I'd love to read your experiences and stories with magical Yew, if you feel like sharing ❤️⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #yew #darknature #teixo #pagansofinstagram #animistsofinstagram #darktrees #paganism #iberianpaganism #souls_hunters #masters_of_darkness #ominous_perfection #ethereal_moods #darkgrammer #sacredtree #yggdrasil #yewtree #deathtree #deathandrebirth #wintersolstice #wintertree #lusitanians #celtiberian #folkmagic #raw_alltrees #romaninvasion #ironage #bronzeage
