    She may have been dancing nude in her ritual before her trance state to recieve those scratches? Her death was probably caused by a failure to return in time. Her body wasn't strong enough to hold the life from that distance. She went beyond the vail. Maybe she decided to join the green. No one will ever know. But common sense and science would say she was delusional and allowed herself to die from exposure. Either way, it's fascinating and I'm here for more of it, thank you Oddie!

    So very interesting! I notice it was mentioned that she was fasting in an effort to put herself into a trance to make psychic contact with other spiritual beings. The physical weakness that can occur due to lack of nutrition combined with being exposed to the natural elements of cold, harsh wind, and I’m sure damp or downright wet conditions could cause death within only a matter of hours, especially since she was completely naked. Very sad end and I pray her soul is resting in eternal peace.

I like how well the narrator makes the emotion of that story come alive in a way that is relatable and understandable regardless of the time in history it happened.

    This was a very fascinating video, Oddie. I'm not sure exactly what happened that actually led to her death, but it certainly seems that starving herself and constantly entering trances were definite contributing factors. She was obviously scared about something in the last days she was there at Iona, but what it was is impossible to say.
    I think mysticism, spiritualism and esotericism are very fascinating. I'd be interested in learning more about them.

    This was beautifully done Oddie. Back at that period of Occultism there were frequent “battles “ between different Orders and Lodges on the Spiritual level. This led Dion Fortune writing “Psychic Self Defence”, which is still in print. It is likely that Netta may have been caught up in some of that, as many were.
    What I think more likely in her case though, is that she was undertaking workings beyond her level of training. She had no person there to guard her while she was doing these workings, or who had the skills to support her on the Spiritual Planes. That can be dangerous when attempting Elemental workings, as it appeared she was.
    It is likely that she was a “natural”, who later sought out training to enable her to better control her gifts. It is not uncommon for serious Occultists to overestimate their own strength and abilities, and recklessly undertake a working that is beyond them. Even Aleister Crowley made that mistake.
    This also occurred around the time of a great schism within the Golden Dawn, with Crowley forming his own Ordo Templis Orientis, ant Mathers heading the A.O. This precipitated a great deal of infighting and struggling for dominance and custodianship of certain teachings.
    Netta appears to have been more in the mould of Dion Fortune in her interests and workings, but lacking the depth of training and the attention to safeguards that Dion employed. Dion was more focused on the ancient Deities in her workings, where Netta seemed to be drawn to the more raw Elemental energies, which are less refined, and consequently often contrary.
    It is rather sad she met her end in this way, and I would have loved to read her notes and letters relating to the Earth Elemental workings she was undertaking at the time of her death.
    Thank you, as always Dear Oddie, for bringing us this little gem from an interesting time in Occult history. Sending you love and light my friend.🖤🇨🇦

I really miss seeing your videos. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to afford the patron subscription because it will definitely be worth it to see your videos more frequently like I used to. I knew the minute you started telling us the story who you were talking about. I’d heard about her case so many times over the years and it’s always fascinated me. I was so happy to see that you made the comment about most pictures that come up of her are actually the Mathers lady. It’s very odd that Dion thought the physic attack was from the Mathers woman and now her picture is always mistaken for Nora’s all of these years later. I just found that so interesting. I know I can always count on you for the fullest possible details on any of the stories you share with us.

I'm from Canada and well as we are known for our friendliness.... has there ever been a story or an event in the period erra's that you cover that has ever happened here that you would know of? I love listen to you and I follow every single video!! Sorry if that's a stupid question but I know you know so much about history and have covered so many stories. Thank you for all that you do and for all the work that goes into these videos that you make for us :)

There is great care that goes into each video you do and that is what I look for. And is why I sit here watching your channel.

    Oddie, I may have previously both watched and commented on this story/video. But I’ll take a risk and comment because I just watched it. This video was given a much more hauntingly (not really the word I was searching for) effect due to the pictures and music. throughout the story. The pictures of the man sitting on a bench, I believe under a willow tree and the one of a woman walking in the rain with her umbrella, were 2 of my favorites. I think that the bottom line of this story is to keep an open mind and look around you. Is that corny? And once again I totally agree that the music added just the right touch.
