Celebrating the waking of the land with the Tamesis Grove druids. Windswept hilltop? Check. Stone circle? Check. Mud? You better believe it.
The magical so often meets the mundane. /|\

The love of all existences. 🏳️‍⚧️/|\

Trans flag gradient background with the text: Today is an important day to re-affirm that Tamesis welcomes and affirms the sacredness of our trans, genderqueer and non-binary members. Tamesis stands in a circle of fellowship, inclusion and equity: both in our grove and in the wider world. It is not a space where we will debate the existence or human rights of any person, especially not people who are marginalised in society. If your druidry does not include "the love of all existences", then it is not a druidry that will find a comfortable home in Tamesis.
