Today marks Arianrhod’s Day, a good moment for myth.
So I’m curious: is there a myth or legend that has quietly shaped the way you love fantasy? One that echoes through the stories you’re drawn to, even if you don’t consciously seek it out. It might be something you encountered early, or something you keep circling back to without quite meaning to.
Stories have long memories, after all. 💙

January 12th marks the Day of Arianrhod—goddess of rebirth, stars, sovereignty, and the ever-turning year. She is change embodied: the shedding of what was, the quiet becoming of what will be.
May this day offer space to honour where you’ve been, and where you’re being called next. 💙

Happy Festival of Arianrhod! 🌙✨
The star-crowned Goddess descends in her silver chariot to watch the tides and seasons turn. As an author, her myths remind me that every cycle in our lives carries its own purpose.
May her light guide your next chapter. 🌊📚

Who is Arianrhod?
She’s not your typical moon goddess…
Arianrhod, whose name means "Silver Wheel," spins the stars and weaves the threads of fate.
She births heroes, casts taboos, and guards the threshold between shadow and transformation.
