About The Liminal Witch

Magic has always been there, but it took me until I was 19 to fully embrace it.

And even then, I had no idea what this journey had in store for me.

I have always loved fantasy and the weird and wonderful. From a very young age, I have created intricate worlds filled with lore, art, and even maps. I populated these world with witches, vampires, elves, elementals, and everything in between. I read books filled with epic quests and otherworldly beings in my spare time. My father read me Greek mythology tales as a child. I created art built around science fiction and fantasy. I watched paranormal TV shows and loved horror. I wrote songs in the style of fictional stories. The weird and the magic always called to me.

As for witchcraft itself, that was always there in the background. I grew up in a Protestant Christian family, but even at the height of my belief, it didn’t feel right, and after a traumatic experience at 12, I became an atheist. I discovered Tarot when I was 15 and read about witchcraft and it excited me, but it wasn’t until my 20s that I started down a path that changed my life. After more trauma and intense healing and shadow work, in my mid-20s, I found the path I was always meant to go down- it had finally shown itself to me.

Growing up in Cardiff, I had limited access to the natural world, even though I deeply loved nature, and didn’t realise how beautiful my home country of Wales was until I started exploring the outskirts of the city, going deeper and deeper into the country over the years. It was through these adventures and experiences that I discovered the mountain (The Garth) that I have a deep spiritual connection with, and the river (River Taff) that flowed through the city I lived in became another spiritual guardian of great importance. It was through these adventures that I started to connect with the Genius Loci (spirit of the place), experiencing magical phenomena and the Tylwyth Teg (Fair Folk) of our beautiful Cymru.

Discovering Liminality

In my late 20s, after going through a lot of trial and error, I finally discovered liminality and liminal magic. Not only did this path allow me to blend my love for nature with my love for the paranormal world, but it also allowed me to implement all of my hobbies and passions into a magical practice I call ‘liminal witchcraft.’ Working with liminal spaces and the in-between, I soon discovered that there is so much liminality in everything. From physical spaces to the realms we visit within our minds, all the way to improvised singing. This revelation became more than just an interest- it became a way of life. I blended what I discovered into every aspect of my life and will continue to proclaim the importance of liminality and sacred spaces until the day I pass on to the next world. After being obsessed with Greek Mythology, liminality finally led me down the path of Welsh Mythology and Folklore, and I have never looked back.

Sacred Spaces & The Work

One early morning, on my morning commute to my office job, I was sitting on a packed train. I was struggling to keep my eyes open as I stared out at the River Taff, one of two beloved spiritual guardians. As I continued to stare out at the rushing water near Radyr Weir, a voice that wasn’t mine started speaking in my mind. 'This voice told me that the River Taff needed deep spiritual healing. It needed magic and attention from human souls brave and committed enough to aid it. The voice urged that I needed to take the knowledge of liminality and go and find liminal and sacred spaces in the world, out in nature. I needed to find these spaces and sing to them, to perform rituals and ceremonies in these sacred spaces and to help heal the native land. It also told me to find others, those who feel a similar call, and bring them to these spaces so we could work together to heal these liminal pockets.

Never has spirit spoken so intensely to me before. Never so clearly and obviously. I felt something in my whole being that day and suddenly knew what my spiritual path was. So now, whenever I find myself in these liminal and sacred spaces, I sing to them. I let the Awen channel through me, and I listen to see where I must go next. One of the main things Spirit has asked of me is to locate the source of the River Taff and help to heal it with the aid of community.

Alongside my other endeavours, this will be my spiritual life’s work. This is the spiritual work I am tasked with, this and educating others on the power of liminality. I feel it in my bones and try to include it in all aspects of my life, however I can and you will see this reflected in my online content, workshops, music, art, and writings.
