New Plants (Knowledge) - my blog just posted on the Homesteading community of Hive: "In our first 8 months on our sovereign homestead, we've seen massive changes, from dry heat and bare compacted earth - to now lush florally-carpetted meadows and vibrant green edges, with our (water) well methodically filling... And now we enter the four months that we 'haven't yet observed': March through to early July, each lunar turn bringing with it accumulated merit-gained and harvestable living wisdom." https://ecency.com/hive-114308/@clareartista/new-plant-knowledge-and-rekindling #homesteading #slowliving #offgrid #naturallaw

My favourite new winter coat, made from lots of old wooly jumpers, a scarf, and a bodice from a funky cardigan.... Read my full post and see the photoshoot, over on the Hive:

A most welcome break from our recent #homesteading adventures, amongst big daisies (probably my most favourite wild flower), sun on our backs, enjoying *svogliatella* and *orzo* 😍 Life is challenging but utterly perfectly-imperfectly beauty-full! #homesteading #haveabreak #daisies #slowliving #freedom

We've mostly been working on the basics, on our sovereign homestead in Molise, Italy, this month. Clearing around the well has been major - hopefully we'll have it full of water soon too! Life is very challenging this first winter on the land, without mod cons, comfort, even basics.... but we'd rather be here creating the lifework/ new world, than back with the crazies and the inverts! **Hallelujah for the simple things and the freedom of being alive & conscious!!**

The latest episode of The Art Of Life podcast is a deep-dive into the early days of this glorious Real Life adventure in returning to natural ways - on our homestead in Molise, Italy, with my twinflame Vincent...

I just posted a Reintroduction To My LifeWork, over on my Patreon: "I was a prolifically creative child, as well as a very unusual and aware one. I noticed a lot around me that did not seem True or Authentic. I saw early on that most folks were pretty mad - a view that endures today, unfortunately. I believe that much of my creativity welled up from being left alone (now classified as 'neglect') to learn actively, directly from immersion in Nature and Natural Law. I built shelters, sewed clothing, wrote stories and songs, set up improvised theatres, shops, businesses - then slowly grounded myself in my early teens, in an intensive practise of drawing and painting. I created a unique and inimitable visual language, using the primal (alchemical) practise of intuitive Art to heal, grow spiritually, unlock deeply embodied wisdom and to radiate positive influence in the micro and macro worlds." https://www.patreon.com/posts/149239616

My weekly sewing blog is up on the Hive: "Feels like a nice achievement too, to have carved out space (and time), in our super-chaotic living room/ dining room/ bedroom/ atelier! We only very recently got it fractionally more organised, and it feels about 5000% better to live-work-play in!"

Our first serious snowfall on the #sovereignhomestead ! Astounding views all round 🤗😍🥰🙏 #naturallaw #naturalrhythms #winterwonderland

A lot of our early #homesteading is flying-by-the-seat-of-our-pants kind of stuff. This is the best way to learn (the most) (in the shortest period of time)! Many of our actions might seem to be chaotic and/ or even desperate... but there are decades (and perhaps lifetimes) of practise, skills accumulated, living wisdom behind what is unfolding. It just needs time. #homesteading #italy #sovereignhomestead

Selling The Arthouse in Guardia Sanframondi, Italy: Bitcoin preferred. #casainvendita #houseforsaleitaly #guardiasanframondi #dreamhome #italydream #btc #bitcoin #btcaccepted

My post on these *favolosi* transformed tweed winter shorts - is now up, over on the Hive blog. "I spent a good few hours sifting through bags and bags of unsorted clothing this week in Guardia: storing my needlework passion is a bit like sorting out photos on my laptop; in the time that new garments accumulate, they create new categories that I hadn’t thought of yet, and then I really have to create an opportunity like this one, to reassess what I have, and how best it can be arranged."

New blog post over on the Hive: "This weekend @vincentnijman and I have been in Guardia Sanframondi sorting out the Arthouse – meeting with some altri stranieri, with a view to accessing a wider audience for it now that we are absolutely sure we want to sell it. So this makes organising the last of my belongings which are here, vital: putting our energies into the clearout, which involves a very large collection of lovely materials that have cumulated this past 1.5 decades."

Looking forward very much to sharing a #needleworkmonday post tomorrow on the Hive blog - my first in a couple of weeks, since we've been in chaos confronted by the winter, on our not-ready-to-live-in-yet abode! So glad to be sheltering back in Guardia Sanframondi temporarily, getting some sewing done, and organising (hopefully) the sale of the Arthouse! #slowfashion #homemade #handmade #houseforsaleitaly

Merry Christ Mass, dear friends on Nostr 🌟🥰❤️‍🔥🙏💝 Here's my latest sharing around these sacred days and long nights, on our sovereign homestead ⭐🌟⭐ "Then a moment shines brightly, like the crystal clear skies above us speckled with countless stars, as we nip outside after midnight for a pee. Every time I do this, the awe of being under this clear dark majesty calls me back to myself: my mystical Self. I am no longer the simpleton limping out of the back door in cumbersome slippers that are getting caked in mud and grass – suddenly I am reminded of who the Higher Self is, as the night sky seems to implode inside of me, instantaneous vibrational downloads coming in from all directions."

The Only Way Is Up! 🌟🙏❤️‍🔥

Every challenge right now seems to be The Final Straw: our house is not holding up to even the most basic expectations, and our attempts to ...

Super-challenge of the day on our #sovereignhomestead: covering the (most) leaking side of the roof, before the next rains - which are beginning imminently! #waterproof #temporarysolutions #rainfreehome

"All in all, this ‘house’ it is not particularly safe or secure. But it is ours. And this is the most important thing for us. Why? Because anything else is bound in others’ energies, contractions, vision – and the wider vision of the mainstream. Whereas being on our own land in our own building – no matter what – is a vastly easier and more energising space to be in. Though many of us have not noticed, mainstream humanity is on a very rapid downwards spiral: the quality of life, value of benefits and privileges, the very health of nations, the mental health especially, is all descending. It is more noticable every day, to folks like us - who avoid cities in general and groups of humans in particular – that ‘conventional’ life is becoming more restrictive, toxic, and degraded/ degrading."

Aaah; living fire changes *everything* and also this gives us a much better sense of being in control of our homestead 🙏 Following our most challenging days yet, we managed to get this miniature (tent) stove installed!! Even having a warm spot to heat up tea is a joy: this morning we relished maté, rose & nettle tea on our terazzo, greeting the morming sun. We are very blessed, and have a much clearer perspective now for what to work on next. ❤️‍🔥 #homesteading #slowliving #freedom #selfsufficiency

We are back in our blessed wee shack, on our magical mountainside property in Molise, Italy.... It is not remotely winterproof, and so is somewhat bracing to the senses already! We hope to be able to make it work, somehow, between multiple duvets on the bed, a miniature stove, multifarious make-do-and-mends... and a great deal of prayer 🙏💝❤️‍🔥 Blogs & podcasts are coming! #theartoflife #italy #homesteading #naturallaw #freedom
