Deer Priestess

An oracle project that has been unfolding for many years at this point, originally called Cairn to Cairn, has continued to come into being in the most mysterious of ways.  Here, we now enter the Domains of The Deer Witch and of her Primitive Memoirs. 

​

This creative project became activated within me once again, while I was walking my path as an ancestral Priestess of the Cailleach.  I felt a past life connection with the myths of the Deer Goddess Cult of the ancient Caledonians. They were known as witches and were said to be Priestesses of the Cailleach who could shape shift into deer.  The Cult of the Deer Priestesses became integral to my own spiritual path and through shamanic journeys I visited this ancient tribe of women.  ​

​

Please visit my Cult of the Deer Priestess Instagram account and follow the photography of this project unfolding there.

​

I hope to release my first Deer Priestess oracle winter 2025. My photographs lead the viewer into something of a dark gothic and primitive world. I have two stories unfolding. Both are deeply shamanic in nature.  These oracles are intended for shamans, druids and witches to support them of their paths in this life.

 

Domains of the Deer Witch photos have no trace of modern human structures. They offer a natural world, a wild and untamed landscape, harsh yet alluring.  A land through which our imagination can transport us back to those primitive times of the ancient Caledonians of Scotland and we can journey here with our ancestors.

 

Primitive Memoirs story speaks to us through human structure across time, a history of human settlement with traces of times long since lost. These images suggest a post apocalyptic mood. Almost like they are the very few images remaining of our time here on this Earth. Each photo invaluable to the few story tellers that remain and wander this forgotten world. 

​

These oracles are intended to be sisters. The first two sisters of what I hope to be a wonderful journey in finding the lost spirits of the Cult of the Deer Priestesses.
