Amethystia Grimalkin-
she adorns herself in a purple cloak
has flowing locks of thistle,
to summon her army of yowling cats,
she only gives a whistle.
Stalking the night with a feline grace
she's the whisper in the trees;
the creak of a door,the breath on your neck,
deadly nightshade on the breeze.

Astraste Tunstal. Astraste means Goddess and is a nod to my maternal Celtic line. Tunstal means Wolf of Thor and is a nod to my Teutonic paternal line.

The reason I chose it is because I was told by my paternal grandmother that, as I was left-handed, I would have been thought of as a witch, especially as I spoke to dogs more than people. I had (and still do!) a fascination with the beautiful, majestic wolf and as my family tree reveals, I am a direct descendant of the man who inspired the Thor legend.

I've always been a big believer in homeopathy and learned a lot from my mother, who was a homeopathic dispenser. She got me a feverfew plant for the treatment of migraine - i got a reputation as being the goddess of weeds after a couple of friends were amazed by the results of it.

So there's my reason for choosing this name. This witch would have a deep empathy for pain, and seek to alleviate suffering through the use of herbs and plants. She would be perpetually accompanied by her faithful little dog......hang on. I've just described myself!
