Current Moon Phase for Aug. 12 – Waxing Crescent

Crescent Moon

(waxing/38% illumination)

During this Moon phase, there is a slight slowing down of enthusiasm due to an emerging desire to produce tangible results from the energy being expended. The issue of values enters into the equation and an urge to tie together the data available so that you can utilize current opportunities. There is still plenty of forward motion, and this is a great time to continue initiating and progressing forward. This Moon phase favors gaining more information and the input of others to further your plans.

Let’s Talk Witch – Broke Any Mirrors Recently, What to do, What to do????

Mirrors are the perfect example of household furnishings that have been fraught with superstition. Probably the most common belief concerning mirrors is that their breakage causes seven years of bad luck. Whatever the origins of this belief, here are some methods to counteract the curse.

*Throw salt over your shoulder.

*Directly after breaking the mirror, turn around three times counterclockwise.

*Burn the mirror or at least blacken its shards in the flames of a fire. Save the fragments for a year and then bury them, and the curse will be counteracted (so you’ve only had to live through one year of bad luck).

*On the first night after breaking the mirror, light seven white candles and blow them out at midnight with one breath.

*Touch a tombstone with a piece of mirror, and the hex will be lifted.

Any of these rites can be used but bear in mind that the “curse” of the broken mirror is usually a self-created one.

How ya’ doing? Miss me? Yeah right, ya’ll didn’t even notice I was missing. Did you? Well I have missed all of you and it is great to be back. Especially great to have the hand out of the cast, lol. It has been hot and nasty around here and my hand started itching. You ever tried to scratch an itch under about four layers of plaster? I got the old coat hanger and scratched away. But I also thought about gnawing the hand off, lol! The itch was an itch the coat hanger just couldn’t satisfy , you know!

Anyway it  is great to be back. We are getting ready to get this show on the road, so get yourself a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy!

Luv & Hugs,

Lady A
