The Wild Goddess
There is a gap in the hawthorn hedge, just wide enough for someone who knows how to look properly!
On the other side is Mossvale, an enchanted world where fairy folk move through ancient woodland at dusk and the wheel of the year is marked with fire, blossom and long tables pulled into the square.
The Wild Goddess Podcast is a folklore and re-enchantment podcast, part storytelling, part wisdom teachings, part quiet ritual. Each episode brings you original fairylore, seasonal folklore, my own written stories, nature poetry, guided meditations, and honest teachings on what it actually means to re-enchant your life in the modern world.
This is a podcast for anyone who has ever felt the pull of an old forest. Who leaves offerings for things they can't see. Who marks the turning of the year. Who has always suspected the world is far more enchanted than it lets on.
Come find the gap in the hedge.
Welcome to Mossvale.

Ep 64 - Winter’s Threshold Charm: A Folklore Journey into December’s Magic
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Step with me into the old magic of winter.
In this special episode, we wander from November into December through a folklore-infused charm-walk filled with robins, hobgoblins, mistletoe, the Holly King, and the ancient Cailleach herself.
This isn’t a story, it’s an immersive winter enchantment, a pocket spell woven with old lore, atmospheric imagery, and gentle seasonal wisdom.
Together, we'll find:
✨ The robin’s blessing
✨ The Holly King in deep winter
✨ Hobgoblin mischief and hearth magic
✨ The ancient protective lore of winter mistletoe
✨ The quiet welcome of the Cailleach’s winter cottage
✨ A sense of slowing, softening, and embracing the wintering season
This episode is perfect for anyone craving:
• cosy festive magic
• winter spirituality
• Celtic and British folklore
• gentle seasonal rituals
• a grounding December meditation
• a moment of calm and wonder at the turning of the wheel
Curl up somewhere warm, light a candle if you wish, and let this spell invite you gently into December’s softer, deeper magic.
