Brighton Hosts Seed Talks

The Queen of the Fairies, a powerful and enigmatic figure, will be the central focus of Seed Talks, a series of discussions taking place at the Brighthelm Centre in Brighton from Tuesday, 3 November 2026, to Wednesday, 11 November 2026.

• The talk will delve into Britain's lost fairy traditions, exploring the Queen's origins in early medieval pagan beliefs and her connections to the goddess Diana. • It will also examine the evolution of her story across time, including links to saints and angels, and accounts of Scottish witches who drew power from her. • The discussion will shed light on why the Presbyterian Kirk sought to suppress these stories and what they reveal about women, power, and belief in Britain's past.
