Backstory 

Last year, while trying to find a particular wild swimming spot near Glastonbury to take my husband to, I stumbled upon a webcam view of a sacred glade.

Thing is, at the time I didn’t realise that it was a webcam and thought it was a rather grainy and poor quality photo of a place, which was most certainly not the one I was looking for.

So I stopped searching and hopped in the shower and when I came back I freaked out because I saw people moving on my Mac screen and thought I was somehow on FaceTime! I then realised it was a webcam feed and was riveted by 6 women standing in a circle, heads bowed, holding hands.

I couldn’t believe my luck and took some snaps and thanked the universe for the gift, then said out loud, “it would have been great if there were 7 women though!” As 7 is the number of women I’m doing in each circle, and feels like a lucky and auspicious number.

Next thing I know, white cowboy hat lady comes into the frame and gives each woman a long and heartfelt hug, then holds hands and the circle continued! I gasped…took some photos..And so, this print was born!

Serendipitous perfection! (Thank you, Universe!) 🥰💫🤍
