The Soul BookShop
RowanthwaiteMy dear kindred spirit
Julie here,Well, after years of dusting shelves and lighting lanterns, I’m thrilled to announce...Rowanthwaite Village, The Heart of all Paths, our Soul Sanctuary and Blessing Place is HERE. Woo hoo..Today, I am penning you this letter from our new “Soul BookShop”!… exhale.This little village of the internet has been a veeeeerrry….long time coming. I have the grey hairs to prove it.I began gathering the first scraps and scrolls back in 2005 with Love Your Life can you believe it? Waving to you, if you were around back then.Only now, twenty years later, has the thread pulled itself together into a village you can actually step inside. Well, sort of ☺️.I’ve stitched it together in quiet hours, mostly at 3am, between stacks of books, pots of coffee (a lot of coffee, ... far too much coffee) and those small, certain soul-whispers that would.not.let.me - put it down.She’s still fresh with wet paint. Paths are being laid to the Wishing Well andour Sacred Rowan, and flowers are still to be planted.We are still somewhat higgledy-piggledy (apologies, for slight whiff of chaos - lol).Only a handful of books and blessings are unpacked, and many treasures are yet finding their place on the shelves. But I wanted you to be the first to know.Now, first things first...As far as our bookshop, as you might expect, we are definitely more Avalon than Amazon 😀🫖Think Narnia meets Simply Divine, meets your Soul and Guardian Angel.So, yes, Shop Around The Corner not Fox Books IYKYK.Our official “blurb”,
Offering treasures for the curious and the kindred,
stories that shimmer with Soul Presence,
gatherings laced with magical child joy and delight,
and soul-made blessings that found me before they found you.Dearest, I built this place for all of us, it’s a little bit Narnia, a lot Secret Garden and of course, with heaps of Soul and Angels and BLESSINGS.It is my antidote, to world strife. Lol. Well, maybe a tiny bit!I want you to find your own way back to your favourite true YOU, the you, you were before you were told to sit down, and be good and,... quiet. In my case anyway, as I was ALWAYS talking, lol…I want you to be able to hear your own soul’s voice,feel your own guardian angel’s love for you…and maybe even see a unicorn. 🦄 Who knows? - unashamed plug, for our unicorn gathering …This has been a very long time coming, and may it be a happy portal for **the true you. The you that shines with you own light.Come wander friend, as Catherine Ponder would say, “There’s gold ✨ dust in the air for you”, and dearest, something sacred waiting with your name on it.💫
🦉Mr. Wise Owl note: Please bear with us, as we put the finishing touches to our beloved little-village, that is BIG WITH BLESSINGS .From us all at Rowanthwaite, we say a hearty welcome, and we do hope you enjoy your visit. ☺️With so much love,Julie. Creator, Keeper, and occasionally bewildered soul who built it all anyway ✨💖P.S. I am so glad that you are here.Whether you browse, buy, or simply breathe it in, your Simply Divine Presence is part of the magic. 🍀📚
⭐️ added note from Julie, dearest, there is a lot to read and see at Rowanthwaite, it’s not a quick turn of the spiral pathway. May I suggest a honey cinnamon tea, a cosy blanket, tuck yourself up and prepare for a happy read.
P.P.S Sshh, it's not a shop really, it is a doorway to a sacred sanctuary of story, soul and yes, even miracles. 💫 and look out for the other two doorways, one is at the end of the aisle behind the blue velvet curtain, the other.. well, I will let you find it ...
So if you are ready, pick up your lantern and . . .
Dearest, write your name in our
book at the counter,
if you would like to be kept up to date with Rowanthwaite.There is a lot more to come, as we have only just begun ☺️🎉
