Y Ceudod a'r Fflam
The Hollow and the Flame
Do you long for a relationship with the sacred, listening for your deeper purpose?
A seven month Ceremonial journey from Calan Gaeaf to Calan Mai through the winter
- To walk alongside the seasons and festivals, in a closed group to get to know yourself and deepen your relationship with sacredness, ritual and your own unique rhythm.
- A closed small group journeying together through the winter into summer, from Calan Gaeaf to Calan Mai, Samhain to Beltaine; Death to Rebirth.
- Together we celebrate the ceremonies, weave silence and dance, tend altars, walk the land, and align with the Sun and Moon as our ancestors once did.
- Online New Moon calls between each gathering, to hold intention preparation and integration for the cycles.
“An incredible opportunity to be held in circle… I came out of the experience deeply connected, tuned in and filled with an outlook of curiosity and wonder.”
A seven-month path:
- Honouring death, grief, and our connection to ancestors and guides
- Listening for guidance through divination, movement and silence
- Working with altars and a devotional practice that is truly your own
- Being with the land, the elements, and sacred places
- Finding balance, and cultivating what is ready to emerge over the winter
- Discovering how a personal practice deepens when it’s held with others, witnessing and being witnessed, sharing and being inspired
- Attuning to the moon and the sun festivals, mirroring nature’s rhythms to deepen our connection inside and out.
“The beautiful group became a treasured resource that held and supported me through the cold and harsh winter months. Lucy deeply knows how to hold a group.”

About Lucy
This work is a deep calling for me. My faith, and my understanding of these ways, is the reason I am still here; able to laugh, cry, dance, sing, and at times feel fully alive. I believe we are not separate from one another, and that this creates meaning; bringing richness and connection into our lives.
I was Ordained as a Minister with the Center for Sacred Studies in California in 2011, and now work as a Spiritual mentor for the Community. Alongside this, I am a trauma informed therapist trained in Dr Gabor Maté’s Compassionate Inquiry. For over 15 years I have been offering ceremonies, dances and spaces of sacred connection walking alongside those in transition, grief and renewal.
I hold a daily devotional practice, and I sit often in ceremony, rooted in prayer, listening, and faith. Ceremony, inquiry, and presence are the tools I trust to support, to transform, and to offer what is most needed in these times of great change.
Over many years I have received teachings from a number of different traditions, incredible teachers and elders, and what they have asked of me most consistently is to give thanks and cultivate humility; to stay close to the ground, to listen more than I speak, and to remember that none of this is mine. I work closely with ancestors, guides and divination tools, with the earth, and with prayer, trusting what moves through me. I give great thanks for all of that I walk with and in some way can share a little of.
I came into the circle carrying grief I didn’t know how to put down. Through the ceremonies, the silence, the moon calls, I found a way to hold it differently. Not fixed, but softened. Lucy’s presence made space for all of it, the tears and the laughter.

“The hollow and the flame for me was life changing. The beautiful group of women became a treasured resource that held and supported me through the cold and harsh winter months. Lucy deeply knows how to hold a group, and to support them on their journey through some dark and mysterious aspects of life. The Calan Mai ceremony that I created to complete the process created a major shift in me. I was able to finally start processing some trauma that had been stuck for some years. It literally feels like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders.”
💛 Investment
I offer preparation, presence, and holding over the cycle. Sliding scale works with the spirit of reciprocity, recognising the energy and time this work takes, while keeping the door open to those who feel truly called. What we’re able to offer changes with context and some people can pay more, what’s honoured is our truth and capacity and taking care of how we show up.
This journey is offered on a sliding scale of £200 – £500.
Group size is kept small and intimate.
Payment options:
- Pay in full at the start
- Two instalments (half at the beginning, half mid-journey)
- Monthly plan
This is an investment in yourself and your relationship to your life, purpose and sacredness.
If you feel drawn to this work and money is an obstacle, please get in touch. We are living in precarious times. I’m flexible, and I’ve been there myself; it’s a genuine offer.
Our ancestors celebrated, told stories, held each other through the dark part of the year. We are wired for connection, and there is a depth we can reach walking this path with others.
