Caitlin K. Gemmell

I am a mother, a writer, a priestess, a graduate student, and a believer in all things magical. I maintain a close relationship with the animate world and follow the "Old Ways," but embrace aspects of contemporary Western culture as well. I help women discover the relationship between sense of place and personal mythology, delving into dream work, stories, imagery, and journaling.

And just like that the Goddess left the world of dreams and walked the land. She sang birthing songs, encouraging the trees to unfurl their tight buds. The forest was covered in a tapestry of green once more. 🌱✨🌿🌱✨🌿🌱✨🌿🌱Happy Earth Day dear friends! . . . #caitsdreamscapes #WHP🌲 #earthday2018 #earthdayeveryday #amwriting #writerslife #writerssociety #writersofig #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #littlecornersofmyworld #littlestoriesofmylife #animist #quietinthewild #whimsicalwonderfulwild #thewildernesstonic #mycountrysidetonic #upstateny #myeverydaymagic #creatingmagic #bookblogger #springcolsie

What is your favorite book of the year (so far)? The Rules of Magic is one of mine. Magical realism is one of my favorite genres to read and my favorite genre to write. I first discovered Alice Hoffman when I read Practical Magic. At the time, I wasn’t captivated by her style of writing, but boy did it grow on me! The Rules of Magic is the prequel to Practical Magic. It was one of those books that just came to me at the right time. I was so completely immersed in her world of magic that I didn’t want to leave. I wish I could brew potions with the Owens sisters.

Are you listening to your body and resting when you need to? Are there small moments of joy and calm in your daily life? As some of you may know I decided to join the #100dayproject earlier this month. I’ve been writing every day—most days only a sentence or two, some days I only record my dream from the night before, but I am meeting my goal. The thing is, I find I have been listening to that pesky inner voice far too frequently—the voice that tells me I am not doing enough. In order to silence that voice I have been engaging in some important self care rituals. This helps keep me in balance and motivated to continue with this 100 days project. If you are interested in reading about it, my new blog post is up on my website. You can click on link in bio and then on “my writing” to access it, or visit www.unearthingyourstory.com 🌿Just as I wrote this post my friend @evakuklica posted on Instagram about “self love.” It’s an interesting post and an important topic. I hope you’ll head over to her page to read it. I have been thinking about what self love means to me. One aspect of it is allowing myself the simple pleasures, such as my daily rituals that keep me in a positive mind frame. I’m going to give it some more thought and then I’ll share with @evakuklica ♥️ I hope everyone is having a nice weekend. The weather is finally warmer here and we are about to walk in the woods. We might even have a picnic!! In case you didn’t know picnicking is one of my favorite activities ever! 😊 . . . . #aprillove2018 nourish #caitsdreamscapes #fairytalesofapril Matilda by Roald Dahl is the first book I read entirely on my own. It definitely lead to my obsession with reading and inspired me to become a writer. #aprilbookstagram18 most anticipated release—Muse of Nightmares by @lainit

Happy Friday! I am actually off work tomorrow so I can finally say #tgif 😄 Today I wanted to recommend a new to me woman author for #ourdaughtersdaughterssociety ♥️Although I haven’t had much time to read lately, I think about my #currentread all the time. I’m slowly working my way through #circe by #madelinemiller and I can already tell it will be one of my top reads this year. Circe is my new #shero 🙌 #feministfriday QOTD: Who are some of your favorite literary characters?

Happy publication day to Somebody’s Daughter by @rochwein 😊Thanks again to @lorijill321 and Lake Union Publishing for gifting me a copy. #partner ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨Synopsis: Emma and Bobby Ross enjoy a charmed life on the shores of Miami Beach. A model family with a successful business, they enjoy a fulfilling marriage, and are respected members of their tight-knit community. They adore their twin daughters, Zoe and Lily. Then, on the night of the girls’ fifteenth birthday party, they learn - in a devastatingly public way- of Zoe’s mistake. When a private indiscretion with a classmate at a party goes viral, the entire Ross family is thrust into the center of a shocking public scandal. Shattered by disgrace and judgment, and bent on retribution, the family struggles to recover from the fallout. But for Emma, the shame runs deeper. Her daughter’s reckless behavior has stirred memories of secrets she holds: secrets which have the power to ruin her marriage, her family, and her life. . . . #bookreviewer #booktographer #bookblogger #somebodysdaughter #rochelleweinstein #womensfiction #familylife #bestsellingauthor #bookstagram #coffeetime #booksandcoffee #springreads #springcolsie #caitsdreamscapes #igreads #bookfeaturepage #culturetripbooks #bookstagramfeature #bookster #idratherbereading

This rainy weather makes me sleepy. It’s time for a London Fog latte! I add dried lavender—just a bit of New Moon magic. Do you have a favorite bedtime drink? I’m about to snuggle up with my #currentread (Circe) and my London Fog. Ahhh! Good night lovelies. 💗💗💗 . . . . #caitsdreamscapes #springcolsie #springreads #londonfog #tealover #onequietcup #homeisacupoftea #thisjaneaustenlife #the100dayproject #bookstergram #bookishhygge #culturetripbooks #simplethingsinlife #littestoriesofmylife #mybeigelife #myeverydaymagic #theartofgathering #theartofslowliving #calmversation #amreading #goodreads #bookblogger #bookreviewer #circe #madelinemiller
