Truthbrush Review: Switching to a Bamboo Electric Toothbrush Head

Ad 🦋🌈 Butterflies can help you predict the weather, according to folklore.

In Mid and West Wales, for example, seeing a gathering of a large number of white butterflies is said to be a sign that fair weather is on the way. 🐛 Meanwhile, in England, seeing brimstone butterflies among the spring flowers was thought to be a sign that poor weather is around the corner.

Butterflies are highly sensitive to changes in temperature and barometric pressure, which lowers before a storm or change in weather happens. ⛈️ So, there's a scientific basis for the idea that they may indicate short-term weather changes. If they're seeking shelter, it's a sign that rain or harsh weather is on the way.

The beautiful blue butterfly ring I'm wearing in this video was kindly gifted to me by @fableengland . It's modelled after vintage natural history illustrations and is fully adjustable!

🌼🌲✨ Snowdrops appear as if by magic in a delicate green and white carpet at the begining of spring.

We've had a lot of frost and snow throughout February and in these first few days of March. It's incredible to see how these unassuming little flowers overcome the cold.

❄️ Snowdrops have anti-freeze proteins in their sap which keep their cells safe from freezing temperatures, and their leaves are specially-adapted to break through frozen soil or snow thanks to their hardened, pointed ends.

❄️🕯️ Snow tumbles from the tree's crown, shards of starlight casting a kaleidoscope portal in the air. Through the fanged maw of mist, a forgotten world shivers awake. Wood sprites weave spells over winter-brushed branches. Dragons, draped with silvered lichen, stir in their ancient dreams.

🌲❄️🌲❄️

Like every season, winter has its own special kind of magic. It's incredible to watch familiar landscapes transform with snowfall or frost, like a whole new world has been layered on top of what already exists.

A journey through the wishing woods 🌲🍂✨ Beech trees are known for their connection to wishes and knowledge.

Legend has it that if you write a selfless wish on a fallen beech branch and tie it back to the tree, it might come true. This tradition is thought to have originated from the Celtic belief that beech trees have a direct connection to the Otherworld, so the words will be carried there.

It was absolutely enchanting to see these trees in the mist in the early hours 🍂

🌙🍂 The Hunter's Moon and faerie revelry | ad with @fableengland

The Hunter's Moon will appear in our skies this October. It is the first full moon after the Harvest Moon, rising in the cool, clear nights that follow the autumn equinox.

Like the Harvest Moon, the Hunter's Moon was (and still is) a crucial light source for those working or travelling during the dark autumn nights.🕯️On moonlit nights like these, the Fae are said to emerge from their dwellings and come to the mortal world for rades or processions - especially near Samhain, when the Hunter's moon appears.

This pendant from @fableengland 's Autumn/ Winter collection perfectly captures the moon's glow at this time of year. It has a faux pearl centre that reflects light beautifully. 🌌

The Hunter's moon this year is on the 28th of October. 🌙

Paint with me 🎨🕯️🍂 I love getting cosy in autumn with arts and crafts! Mini canvas art is an approachable way to fit a little creativity in without committing to a big project when you're busy. It's easy to get a small piece done in an hour or two. Are you working on any creative projects at the moment?

Travel through the seasons with me. 🌿🍂 It's hard to believe it's autumn already! I started filming this video more than a year ago, capturing the seasons from the same spot beneath this beautiful birch tree. It's incredible to see how the trees and landscape change from vivid greens and blossoms to the frigid snow of winter.

I find that my creativity is at its peak in the transition seasons of autumn and spring 🍁🌼 I've been active on my stories, but I'm excited to start sharing more feed posts again! When do you feel the most creative?
