Sunshine And Roses

Sunshine And Roses

If you can’t beat the heat, use it! Magickal Sunshine and Roses Tea is a great way to make thrifty use of positive and powerful solar energies. Fill a large glass jar with cool water and a bag or two of your favorite tea. Add a handful of fresh rose petals. Place the jar outside in direct light and let the sunshine brew the tea. Remove the roses and let the petals dry in the sun. Pour the tea over ice and drink to beat the heat and recharge, and use the dried rose petals in herbal sachets and potpourri to magickally energize and freshen your home.

Daily Feng Shui Tip for June 12th – ‘Loving Day & Red Rose Day’

Today is considered both ‘Loving Day’ and ‘Red Rose Day,’ so I thought we might find a way to attract a new romance that will bloom and grow forever. Fill a white vase with water and put it at your bedside. Place two red roses in the vase, making sure that the thorns are removed. Leave these roses there for three days. Every time you see them visualize yourself with the love of your life. After three days replace the roses with two fresh ones. Do this again once more until you have changed the roses three times for a total of nine days. After the ninth day dispose of the roses and put the vase away. Love will bloom sometime soon.

Honeysuckle Dreams Spell(Hare Moon)

Honeysuckle Dreams Spell

(Hare Moon)
The purpose of this spell is to tap into the power of your dreams through dream divination.
  For this spell, use nine bay leaves, one-third cup of dried rose petals, one-third cup of mugwort, a white sock and honeysuckle-scented oil.
After midnight, write down exactly what question you want the answer to in your journal. Be specific and date your entry!  Keep it simple: for example, I want to know what the best possible career is for me. Turn your mind toward the information you would like to receive in your  dreams. Put the bay leaves, dried rose petals and mugwort into the sock. Anoint the sock and yourself with several drops of the scented oil. Hold the sock in  between your hands, merge with Oneness and say three times:
“Honeysuckle dreams, show the answer to me.
As I will, so shall it be!”
Tuck the sock inside your pillowcase. As you drift to sleep, repeat to yourself:
“Honeysuckle dreams, show the answer to me.”
When you awaken, make a note of all the impressions, any symbols, people, feelings and so forth, that you recall from  your dreams.

It’s Saturday! It’s stop and smell the roses for a minute.

Good Afternoon brothers & sisters of the Craft,
I hope you are having a good Saturday. I wanted to update you and give you some good news. Lady Abyss will definitely be back on Monday. The pain in her leg is now bearable. And the doctors have took her off the pain medication that made her sleep all the time. She is hobbling around good with the assistance of a cane. It will be a few more weeks till she has the cast off but she is insistent that life is passing her by. She wants to get back in the rat race.

 Now that I have the good news out of the way, no there is no bad news. I would like to comment on some of the comments we receive in the back. We have several today that want to know why the ezine is being put out so late every day. Well come Monday, you won’t have that to complain about. Lady A will be back and cracking the whip, lol! But for now it is myself and two other people in this office. The two other people do not start work till I show up. Before I come in here I have to make sure all of Lady A’s outside duties are performed. That could include everything from bottle-feeding a baby fawn to feeding the fish, shoveling crap to laying down new hay, washing and sterilizing instruments. There is a lot more to her job than what you might think. Then running this and also dealing with the public, from those walking in the door, to calling our sponsors and asking for a donation. Her work is never done. After doing her job for a couple of weeks, she deserved the vacation. I know it wasn’t how she planned on taking a vacation but still….

I am sorry I can’t get my act together the way Lady A has her’s. Some people are meant to do things like this and be in the limelight, I am not. Like I stated earlier she will be back Monday and it will be smooth sailing from there, I hope.

So have a great weekend and “Here’s to a Fantastic Monday” to come!

Calendar of the Moon for February 14th

Calendar of the Moon

 

14 Nion/Anthesterion

Day of the Gorse Plant

Color: Tan or .
Element: Earth.
Altar: Upon a cloth of tan or dun set a bundle of dried gorse twigs and leaves, a single tan candle, a pot of soil, seeds, a bowl of water, and a bell.
Offerings: . Make an effort to subdue a troublesome habit.
Daily Meal: Vegan.

Invocation to the Green Man of the Gorse Plant

Hail, Green Man of the Spring!
Gorse plant with its prickles,
Furze who waves its indignant head
At our trampling ankles,
Belligerent as the strongest spring gale,
You remind us that nature
Is not always helpless,
And has a right to its territory.
You remind us that there are places
We have no right to walk
Unaware and thoughtless
Treading all that comes into our path
With no thought for smaller lives.
We bless your prickles, guardian
Of small pathways and hedges,
Protector of tiny beasts
And the untrodden ways,
Shrieking cormorant who drives off
All who are disrespectful of her nest.
We hail you, sacred gorse plant,
Green Man of the Spring,
On this your eve of awakening.

Chant:
I guard the paths of sunlight,
I guard the little mysteries,
I guard those joys of daily life
That come not into histories.

(Each comes forward and plants a seed in the pot of soil, saying, “Hail Green Man of the Earth!” Water is poured onto the pot, and then the rest is poured out as a libation. Ring bell and dismiss.)

The Witches Spell for January 10: Simple Broom Purification Spell


Witchy Comments

THE BROOM PURIFICATION SPELL

Before dawn, take a branch from any tree. Thank the tree for its gift and leave a coin or semi-precious stone at its base in payment.

Next, obtain several brightly colored flowers on long stalks. Tie these flowers to the branch to fashion a sort of broom, then sweep the floor in every room of the house, visualizing the flowers of the broom absorbing negativity and “evil” as you work.

Then, still before sunrise, leave the broom at the crossroads.
Traditionally this ritual is repeated at the first of each month.
