The spiritual path of the human soul is found in the hermetic Song of the Spindle, directly taken from Plato's Myth of Er, as well as in the medieval Gnostic carols, The Leaves of Light and Corpus Christi Carol. There are eternal quests for lost beings or redemptive treasures in Mabon's Journey and the Song of the Grailless Lands.

Other dances also arise, simple devotions like the Shaker Bowing Song or the midsummer labyrinth dance ritual that brings a whole Cornish village out to play, dance, and drink in the Troytown Song. These songs hold the magic of many years, many inspired and uplifting magical themes: they range from the Neolithic shape-shifting Fith Fath song to Sacred Companions, a modern evocation of sacred ancestors through song and dance. This collection of original and traditional songs by Caitli-n Matthews takes the listener to the place beyond, to the very depths of the otherworld.


Magical songs are born in the deep well hidden in the place beyond: when they are sung, they lead us back through paths of inspiration to our origins.
