This blog is about paying close attention to the mysteries and magic of life that inform my paintings, poems and art videos! It is also about the Northern European Ancestral tradition and Old Norse wisdom teachings. I have committed to writing regular blogs about major festivals and feast days - because I feel it is important for those people who feel ancestral or spiritual resonance with this to find inspiration and quality information here. Also because many of my students have requested I do so!
I hope that you will enjoy my blogs! If you would like to receive some soul food delivered directly to your in-box (about 6 - 8 times a year) please consider joining my mailing list!
Please note that for years I used to write a blog on Wordpress.com offering a shamanic perspective on many life issues and major world events. Those blogs are still up and they offer wealth of specialised information on tricky questions and matters.

Welcome and thank you for visiting my website! I hope that you will find what you were looking for!
The most frequently asked question just now is about returning to in-person teaching: I am currently setting dates for hybrid courses (meaning that students can choose between attending in person or online) for 2022. The dates for those courses will appear in my October newsletter (goes out on October 3rd) so make sure you are subscribed. Please note that I always follow government guidance for all hosting countries, in terms of making decisions regarding proceeding or cancelling courses and events. My on-line school (Pregnant Hag Teachings) will remain open too. (Check out my FREE Welcome Webinar: Meet The Pregnant Hag!)
On the Shamanic Healing page here you will find a listing for several shamanic practitioners who have availability for one-to-one sessions. All are trained by me personally and I wholeheartedly recommend their work! For an international listing of practitioners who work with children and teens, please visit the Global Grid of Practitioners for Kids page.
If you would like to receive an occasional update from me (about 6-8 times a year) in the form of a newsletter offering soul food, articles, art videos and an up-to-date listing of all upcoming (on-line) courses and events - please drop me an email on imelda.almqvist@gmail.com. Courses and events generally appear in the newsletter before I manage to list them on this site. This will change as soon as I master the ancient arts of cloning myself and bilocation (or hire a VA, whichever comes first!)
Please remember that your own life is the greatest piece of art you will ever make!
Please stay safe, in creative flow and be a blessing in the lives of others!
Imelda
