Barbara R. — Storykeeper & Wisdom Weaver

Barbara R. is a lifelong self-learner and writer. From childhood she immersed herself in psychology, sociology, cultural anthropology, archaeology, mythology, and comparative religion. Without formal training, she has woven decades of reading and reflection into a living practice of seeing patterns in human culture and spirit.
Her gift is synthesis—bringing together story, symbol, and scholarship into writing that feels at once timeless and fiercely present. She writes poetry, myth, essays, and reflections that guide Cronefire Creations, grounding the project in a deep well of ancestral and cultural wisdom.

Barbara C. — Maker, Herbalist & Reiki Practitioner 

Barbara C. is a rare soul who bridges the scientific and the sacred. A master crochet artist, she can translate a simple photograph into intricate threadwork. Her artistry is matched by her deep plant knowledge as an herbalist and her training as a Level II Reiki practitioner, where she works with Reiki energy to balance the body and support healing. 

Her roots run deep in science and medicine and has worked for over 30 years as a respiratory therapist in critical care. An active MENSA member, Barbara embodies both intellect and intuition, weaving them together into a steady wisdom that strengthens our Cronefire hearth. 

If you’ve found yourself lingering here, reading slowly, you’re already sitting at our table.

Coffee has always been how stories were shared in our families — a pause, a breath, a moment of connection before the world moved again.

If you’d like to support Cronefire Creations in a small, human way, you can buy us a coffee and help keep the hearth warm. No obligation — just gratitude, freely given.
