Why The Sea Is Salt · With Kirsten Millikin

We’re hearing a story today from Kirsten Millikin, a Scottish storyteller specialising in myths, legends and folktales from Norse and Celtic nations.

Recently Kirsten worked alongside another storyteller to create Traces of HER: A Goddess Story Project, an evening of stories that explore the traces of the divine feminine in myths, legends and folk and fairy tales, and asking what female archetypes have to teach us about solutions to the environmental and social crises that afflict us today. Through folklore, mythology and heritage, Kirstin explores Stories of hope, stories for healing and stories that speak to the human heart.

We’ll explores all of these topics and more with Kirsten soon, but first, Kirsten is going to tell us the Norse story of ‘Why The Sea Is Salt’.

If you want to follow Kirsten’s work, you can follow her and Catriona as performance duo The Hedge Sisters through their page on Facebook. The link is there for you to follow in the episode show notes: https://www.facebook.com/Thehedgesisters

The Lore & Legend theme music in this episode was performed by Robert Bentall, with additional music from Seikilo Museum of Ancient Instruments.
