Roselle Angwin

UK poet, author and painter Roselle Angwin leads the Fire in the Head creative and reflective writing programme, and a programme for the ecological imagination: The Wild Ways. She's passionate about the meeting points between inner and outer geographies: relationship, connection, wild places. She has been described as 'a poet of the bright moment... whose own sources of creative inspiration are her native Westcountry, the Scottish islands, and a highly individual blend of Celtic myth and metaphysics, psychology, shamanic and Buddhist thinking'. She leads workshops and retreats on Dartmoor, in Cornwall, on the Isle of Iona and sometimes in France.

Her two current projects are an online 5-day guided retreat ('Writing the Bright Moment – poetry, nature & mindfulness'), and a yearlong online course, 'Tongues in Trees', which is a comprehensive and immersive experience, available as a tutored or a self-study option, in the botanical, historical, cultural, mythological and symbolic aspects of the world of trees. Key to it is a relationship to 13 months of the Celtic Tree Calendar. (Next one begins on the winter solstice 2020.)

Based on this course is the first book of two, relating to forests in general and the great ancient mythic forest of Brocéliande in particular. 'A Spell in the Forest - tongues in trees' will appear from Moon Books in June 2021. This will be followed by its sequel: 'A Spell in the Forest - the lost feminine'.
