Selkie is a mythical sea creature and shapeshifter from Celtic, Scottish and Icelandic coastal folklore. Selkie’s journey of heartbreak and loss reminds us how we can find false hope in the comfort and safety of “home” on land, when our real belonging is inside our wild skin, in the depths of our own ocean of wildness. . .May we always be in search of our pelts or already twirling in them, dusting them off, redesigning them. . .
