Instructor
I have been interested in mythology, metaphysics and the mystical for most of my adult life.
These interests have led me to study earth-centric spiritualities, where I have undergone initiation into a number of traditions including contemporary witchcraft, and founding the Temple of the Dark Moon in 1999. I have obtained certified qualifications in various energetic healing modalities, as well as obtaining a Bachelor’s Degree in Metaphysical Sciences, and also hold a Level 1 yogic teaching qualification (although I confess being more interested in the philosophy as opposed to performing the asanas).
I am the author of Dancing the Sacred Wheel (2012), In Her Sacred Name: Writings on the Divine Feminine (2018), Encountering the Dark Goddess: A Journey into the Shadow Realms (2021), Contemporary Witchcraft: Foundational Practices for the Magical Life (2021), and On Her Silver Rays: A Guide to the Moon, Myth and Magic (2023). I have contributed essays to over 20 anthologies and my articles have appeared in over 40 magazines.
Since 2003 I have been presenting at local, international and also online conferences on an assortment of esoteric, mythological and metaphysical subjects.
I also make devotional beads, crystals bracelets and read oracle and tarot cards.
And finally, I am the founder of the Mystical Soul Academy (Adelaide, South Australia) where I like to share my deep passion for ancient cultures, alternative healing practices, and inspiration as to how we can reconnect with nature and to the wisdom of our ancestral past in order to enhance our lives today.
