An October question for the community.

Do you believe in ghosts? Practically rather than philosophically; the specific experience of being somewhere old and quiet at the wrong hour and feeling something you couldn't account for. The Welsh folkloric tradition treats the presence of the ancestral dead as a normal geographical feature rather than something supernatural, which is a framework I find more honest than most.

Where does this community land on it? 🍂👻

MERISSA is currently reading WHEN THE STONES HELD by DAVID E. OWEN.

Inspired by the true story of William Edwards, this novel follows a self-taught Welsh stonemason determined to build a bridge across the fierce River Taff, despite floods, rivals, and powerful men trying to break him. Set against the harsh beauty of eighteenth-century Wales, it brings to life the true story behind the bridge that gave birth to the town of Pontypridd.

Good morning, everyone! Nos Galan Gaeaf is here. The last night of the old year in the Welsh calendar, when the boundary between the living and the dead is at its most permeable, and the old stories feel less like stories and more like memory. However you mark the night, I hope it’s meaningful, safe, and lit by something warm. 🎃

Have a Sensational Saturday. Take care and stay safe. 💙

Today is Dydd Santes Dwynwen—the Welsh Day of Love 💕, a celebration rooted in the story of Saint Dwynwen, the patron saint of lovers in Wales. According to legend, Dwynwen prayed to be freed from a love she could not have, and her devotion and compassion led her to become a protector of others’ hearts.

Her story is remembered each year on January 25th, especially in connection with Llanddwyn Island on Anglesey, where a well dedicated to her was once believed to hold omens for the future of relationships. Over time, the day has become a Welsh alternative to Valentine’s Day, marked by cards, small gifts, and traditional lovespoons—beautifully carved wooden tokens symbolising affection, commitment, and care.

Today feels like a gentle invitation to celebrate all forms of love: romantic, friendship, family, and the quiet kind we offer ourselves. May your day be filled with warmth, kindness, and a few heartfelt moments to share with those who matter most. 🌹✨
