S2 #33 / Teila Verch Dywenys on Clooties, the Dark Man & Dark Mother

Spirit Box - A podcast by Darragh Mason

Teila Verch Dywenys is a traditional witch and founder of The Cleaner Clootie Campaign, set up in 2018 in response to the growing proliferation of plastic objects left as offerings at her nearest Henge at Knowlton Grange in Dorset. Witnessing first hand how this trend has proliferated widely outside the Pagan Community (fuelled by social media and a disconnection from the original practice of clootie hanging) her aim is to realign the ancient tradition once more within its environmentally reverent origins by educating and by example ~ through the physical clearing  of clootie impacted sites and by offering practical sustainable alternatives to plastic or permanent clooties.   Teila takes us through her extraordinary  experiences with the fae on the land where she lives and her work with the Dark Man and Dark Mother.In the Plus show she explains how she experiences the Dark Man energy and we get into what its like to ridden by this energy. How we are pushed to the side sometimes for something else to come through be that art, music or something magical.
