Of Hearth, Land And The Old Ways...
The Elder Path Carrying forward the wisdom of the land The Elder Path is a gentle gathering rooted in old ways, quiet knowledge, and deep connection to land and lineage.
It is a space for remembering—where practices shaped by seasons, soil, fire, and story are brought back into living use.
Guided by nature’s rhythms and the wisdom passed down through generations, The Elder Path offers workshops and circles that honour traditional calendars, mindful living, ancestral skills, and the healing presence of the natural world.
These are not lessons hurried or fixed, but experiences shared slowly, with care, respect, and intention.
Here, the land is teacher. Memory is valued. Stillness has purpose.
Each gathering invites participants to step out of the noise of modern life and walk a steadier path—one shaped by awareness, balance, and belonging. The Elder Path is for those who feel drawn to older rhythms, who sense that wisdom lives in hedgerow and hearth alike, and who wish to carry something meaningful forward—into their lives, their families, and the future.
Join us beneath the April Full Moon for a slow, grounding evening of reflection, warmth, and shared intention at Llanyrafon Manor Farm.
Weather permitting, we will gather around the campfire beneath the open sky. If the weather turns, the evening will move indoors to the 16th-century Tudor Hall, where firelight, stone walls, and centuries of history create a deeply atmospheric space.
This April Full Moon—often called the Pink Moon—marks a turning point in the year. It is traditionally associated with release, emotional clearing, and making space for new growth. Nature is stretching awake, and so are we. What the evening will include:
• A gentle opening circle to arrive, ground, and settle the mind
• A short reflection on the meaning of the April Full Moon and how it supports letting go and renewal
• Guided intention-setting, focusing on what you are ready to release and what you wish to invite in
• A fire-based release ritual (safe and optional), symbolically offering old thoughts, worries, or habits to the flames
• Quiet moments of stillness, listening, and presence, allowing the work to land naturally
• Homemade soup and a fresh roll, shared together by firelight This is not a performance or a test—there is no right way to take part.
You are welcome to join in fully, or simply sit, observe, and absorb the atmosphere.
No prior experience is needed. Come as you are.
Spaces are limited. Booking is essential.
Please dress warmly and bring suitable outdoor clothing if the weather allows us to remain by the fire.
