“Yeah – I’m an Olympian, it might show. I’m old school magic, elements and wishes, combined. I draw spells, the craft of the mandala, visual incantations, a gardener of the mind, and a woodsman. Oh, and a grandad – learning the way.

My work is journalled here.

But aside from sitting, drawing and stroking my beard… Put me by a river, brook, stream, rivulet, tributary, spring – and I’ll be in there, clearing the flow. Water is perfect, clear running water is even more perfect.”

Honouring Zeus today, and taking to Tradition.

Fika: the Swedish custom (excuse) of meeting for coffee & cake.
The cake is a cinnamon bun topped with coconut. I gambled & won! :{D>”

Joe, father of three kids and one soon-to-be very fine beard, has this to say:

“Just a note to say thank you for the beard oil…. Its such a fantastic product and now an essential part of my morning routine. The packaging is first class and resonates the quality of the oil and the considered sincerity of the product custodians. It smells great and is easy to apply and work with. By far the best result for me is the softening effect it has as it has prevented the itchy sensation of a beard. Huge congratulations and I implore anyone with a beard to buy buy buy.”
