Caitl\u00edn is an internationally renowned author, a teacher of shamanic training programme, a facilitator of Systemic Ritual\u00ae and the co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (F\u00cdOS). Caitl\u00edn is the author of over 80 books, including Diary of a Soul Doctor, Singing the Soul Back Home, the Art of Celtic Seership, Celtic Devotional and The Celtic Book of the Dead. Her books have won a number of awards. She is known internationally for her work on the spiritual, mythic and ancestral traditions of Britain and Ireland. She teaches and works with communities and spiritual institutions worldwide from Iceland to Portugal and from USA to Australia. Caitl\u00edn is a co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (F\u00cdOS), which is dedicated to the sacred arts that shape the landscape of the soul, via vision, dream and memory. F\u00cdOS hosts masterclasses with exemplars of living, oracular sacred traditions that are rarely recorded in writing or given an honourable place in modern society. Caitl\u00edn has had a shamanic healing practice in Oxford for the last 30 years, working in the community to deepen connections to the ancestral traditions which are our heritage. In this conversation, Lian and Caitl\u00edn explore what a real, living spiritual practice looks like in the midst of modern life, touching on the way people become porous when they have no spiritual resource, and the jittery fear that grows when we only trust material safety. They share what actually helps in the every day: small repeatable practices, honest prayer that uses different prepositions, and rooting myth and archetype back in the land beneath your feet so you stay human rather than trying to become a god. Listen if you have ever longed for a daily practice that feels real, wondered where to begin, or worried that you are somehow \u201cnot authorised\u201d to walk a spiritual path.

What you\u2019ll learn from this episode: How simple, daily gestures of attention to body, land, weather and soul can turn spiritual practice from a guilty obligation into a steady resource that stops you feeling like that unglazed china cup Why Caitlin\u2019s way of praying for, with, from and to reshapes responsibility, dissolves the fear of \u201cdoing it wrong\u201d, and widens who and what you understand yourself to be in relationship with What happens when you root archetypes, myths and personal practice in actual soil, seasons and place rather than abstract psychology: the stories come alive, your own life steadies, and you remain a person in service to the myth rather than being swallowed by it Resources and stuff that we spoke about: For Caitl\u00edn\u2019s books & courses see: www.hallowquest.org.uk For more of Caitl\u00edn\u2019s writing on a range of topics, including a year-long course, Blessings of the Celtic Year, see her Hallowquest Sanctuary at https:\/\/substack.com\/@caitlinmatthewstigerna Join UNIO, The Community for Wild Sovereign Souls: This is for the old souls in this new world\u2026 Discover your kin & unite with your soul\u2019s calling to truly live your myth.
