Good Wednesday Morning My Precious Brothers & Sisters!

Good Morning
Good morning to all our brothers & sisters of the Craft! I hope you are having a very safe & blessed day. I know most of y’all are getting ready to travel or cooking that turkey, which ever you might be doing be safe. Yes, be safe in the kitchen especially. Heck I can catch a pan on fire by just boiling water. Just kidding I ain’t that bad of a cook.

Since we are now doing our best to operate 7 days a week, we need to take the day off. The reason being is to stock our shelves full of merchandise for this weekend’s sales, hopefully. We have tons of new merchandise and we have the store set so you will save 25% on all of your items in your shopping cart. The price will not show any difference while it is in your cart. When you get to check out, enter the code “Black Friday,” and instantly all your merchandise will be marked down 25%. So if you buy two items, both items will automatically be marked down 25%. If you buy three, all three will be marked down 25%. Each item in your cart will be marked 25% guaranteed. You can save some money on a sale like this. Also this will probably be the only time, we do this. I know we have done something similar to this before but I believe our customers got discouraged. They expected the discount to apply the minute the merchandise hit the cart. No, have patience, go to the check out, enter the code and watch each of your items automatically be reduced by 25%.

We hate to take the day off especially since things are going so well here but we have to support the WOTC one way or another. I know we have had some generous donations but we don’t want to have to depend on you to support us continuously. So please understand why we are taking the day off,  to save you money.

We will be back tomorrow on Thanksgiving to resume our regular posts. 

Well if I don’t get it in gear, we won’t never get that merchandise on the shelves for you tomorrow. The next post will explain the sale we are having fully. I hope everyone has a very beautiful Wednesday. If you are traveling, be safe and we will see you tomorrow. Till then….

Love ya,

Lady of the Abyss

 

In case you want today’s horoscopes and a few other tidbits, I will be doing some brief postings on The Commentary Gazette. The reason I am posting over there is because it is faster and quicker. I don’t have to post as much there as I do here. I feel like y’all are special and deserve the best I can give you. Later on this afternoon, I will be wrestling with a huge ring of bologna to see if I can shape it into a turkey for the boys. Wish me good luck!

Coven Life will be Taking a Short Break

We will be back to posting articles and other things on Saturday because of Thanksgiving in the US. We will be answering all emails between Saturday and Sunday. Lady Beltane has family starting to arrive today for the holiday weekend some of whom she has not seen in over three years.

There might not be anything up or emails anaswered next Tuesday because Lady Beltane is having knee surgery very late afternoon on Monday.

I will try to get posts scheduled for these days but please do not expect it.

Try to find time to make a list to remind yourself of all the things in your life over the past year you have to be thankful and grateful for. If you want please share them below in a comment.

From all the staff at CL we wish you and your families a loving, fun, and blessed Thanksgiving

Astronomy Picture of the Day – The Hill, The Moon, and Saturn

2018 November 20

The Hill, The Moon, and Saturn 
Image Credit & Copyright: Tamas Ladanyi (TWAN)

 

Explanation: Last Sunday when the Moon was young its sunlit crescent hung low near the western horizon at sunset. With strong earthshine it was joined by Saturn shining in the early evening sky for a beautiful conjunction visible to skygazers around our fair planet. On that clear evening on a hill near Veszprem, Hungary mother, daughter, bright planet, and young Moon are framed in this quiet night skyscape taken with a telephoto lens. Of course the Moon ages too quickly for some, and by tonight the sunlit part has reached its first quarter phase. This weekend skygazers spending quality time under Moon and stars might expect to see the annual rain of comet dust otherwise known as the Leonid meteor shower.

Your Daily Planet Tracker for Nov. 20: Mars in Pisces

Sensitive, Creative, and Easygoing

Now Until December 31, 2018


Assertive Mars can seem out of place in watery Pisces, a sign of diffusion. It may be more difficult to focus our initiative during this transit, especially if we aren’t feeling inspired. That’s Pisces’ influence, because this is a sign that needs to have a cause or greater purpose to be motivated to take action.

The complexity of this transit lies in the fact that while Mars is in Pisces, he’ll need to adjust his Martian ways to accommodate a style that Pisces is comfortable wearing. This is not an easy task when you realize that Pisces is all about faith, compassion, healing those who suffer, and unconditional love. So, how does Mars put up his dukes to fight when he’s wearing a pair of angel wings? In a word: gingerly.

When Mars is in Pisces

While Mars moves through soft and ethereal Pisces, it doesn’t necessarily mean our drive will disappear into thin air. After all, Mars is still Mars. Although we may have more of an urge to dream and use our imagination during this transit, Mars in Pisces can move mountains in a subtle way when we realize we’ve been given a cosmic green light to direct our energy toward inspired (Pisces) action (Mars).

Mars in Pisces works wonderfully to combine dynamism and compassion. Mars is able to push gently, express itself creatively, and fight for a higher purpose when it’s in this Water sign. There’s no better time to move forward with a creative pursuit or become the leader of the pack when it comes to a charitable cause. We can save the whales, feed the homeless, fight for the rights of the abused, and so much more during this incredible transit.

However, we need to watch where our passions take us while Mars moves through Pisces. This pairing can manifest as blindly lashing out or indiscriminate anger. There are many noble causes we can funnel our energy into, which is why we need to make sure we have a clear target in sight so we don’t simply flail about.

Universal Pisces often touches the artist within us. This is because Pisces knows that creative forms of expression can be so much richer than ordinary communication. So when Mars transits through this sign, we’re reminded that we all need channels to take us beyond the boundaries of our mundane perspectives.

If you were born with Mars in Pisces

Having your Mars in Pisces is like living on two sides of the same coin. This is the ultimate combination of sensitivity and potency. Think of a gentle giant. Think of the peaceful warrior. That’s what it’s like having your Mars in Pisces.

“Just go with the flow” are probably words you live by as someone with their Mars in Pisces. You’re not one to try and control every outcome, or obsesses about things that are out of your control. Instead, you like to sit back and let the events of your life unfold naturally. Just like a fish, you ride the waves as they come.

Having Mars in this area of your chart gives you an affinity for the arts or similar outlets that allow you to express your creative side — and it’s important that you do. If don’t have somewhere to release the inspired thoughts and passion bubbling up inside of you, it can lead to passive-aggressive behavior. So break out those paintbrushes, get out your guitar, or snap a few photos. You’ll be better off for it.

Your Mars in Pisces makes you the ultimate romantic! You love the rush of butterflies in your stomach after a great first date, or getting lost in fantasies of “happily ever after.” Relationships are about much more than just physical passion to you — you also need an emotional and spiritual connection that helps you fully merge with another person. Your acute sensitivity means that you’re able to easily pick up on what your partner wants and needs, in and out of the bedroom.

You’re a lover, not a fighter! Those born with their Mars in Pisces don’t often display outbursts of anger, preferring a more non-confrontational approach to life. You’re a pacifist who looks at the world through a compassionate lens, trying to understand why people behave the way the way they do rather than getting upset. This is one of the reasons you’re often rooting for the underdog.

Your Karmic Number for November 20 is 4

 

The number 4 means that you are building a strong foundation for your new ventures. Good job! Keep going – build the frame, put up the walls, roof, and seed the yard. It may not be an actual building you are working on, but the structure for your goals is becoming a reality. Taking the time, step by step, means that you have a foundation, protection, and beauty. Use strong people and resources so that you don’t have to rebuild from scratch. In time, you will have a sturdy place to call your own.

Your Ogham Reading for November 20th

Your Ogham Reading for November 20th

 

Onn-Gorse

While it also may have thorns, Gorse is known for a vibrant yellow flower that can last almost year round. For this reason this plant has become a symbol of vitality. It may be hardy and have some thorns but it protects wildlife and shines bright for everyone to see. When you draw this letter keep in mind optimism, positivity, and vigor. With Onn you will prevail as long as you keep your flower in bloom!

Fortune – This Ogham tells you that you will prevail! Stay happy and optimistic and everything you seek will turn out great!

 

 

 

Ura-Heather

The beauty of heather flowers is one reason it is associated with the Irish Goddess of love, fertility, and new growth. Be happy when you draw this letter because it denotes love, companionship, and passion. Whether it will be a new love or an old love rekindled, Ura is a powerful symbol and one that may bring great luck in your love life.

Fortune – This Ogham deals in matters of Love. Whether it is new love or rekindling of old love, enjoy the peace and love that comes with Ura!

 

 

 

Edhadh-Aspen

Aspens grow in large colonies, with the root system potentially up to 10,000’s of years old. This tree can survive fires and other harmful conditions. Often this letter can be associated with death and the fear that comes from it. However it is better to see it for what the aspen really is. When one dies another aspen grows from the same root system. Death is not always a negative aspect of life; sometimes it is a necessary transition. The letter Edhadh will force us to look inward for what we need to “let die,” so we can renew ourselves.

Fortune – A large part of your life will be gone, yet do not worry because another great part will stop. Edhadh never closes one door without opening another!

Today’s Witches Rune for November 20 is Woman

Today’s Witches Rune

Woman

Meaning: The first meaning of this rune is quite obvious: it represents women. Any woman that is important in the question, whether you know her or not, will be represented by this rune. Mother, sister, aunt, grandma, a female boss, friend, lover or even enemy… all can be symbolized by the appearance of this rune.

In a more general sense, this rune is related to traditional female abilities and characteristics, such as giving birth, nurturing, comforting and healing. When this rune appears, you can count on the sympathy of others towards you or your situation. In its most negative aspects, the Woman rune can show over-protectiveness, a patronizing attitude or co-dependency. It often strives to maintain the status quo, refusing to change even if the situation is bad.

The Woman rune is connected to nurturing – nurturing a relationship, a person or a project. Like the Moon rune, it can be related to finding a safe place to rest and heal, but while the Moon implies a solitary retreat, the Woman often shows that you need to go back to the people you trust, the people you feel safe with.

Healing is another strong aspect of this symbol, as well as teaching. You can be both the patient/student or the healer/teacher when this rune appears. This rune is also connected to creativity, but in a way that is different from the Romance rune. While the latter is about the conception of a project – the initial stages of creation – the Woman is about the birth of this project. When your creation is brought out into the world, fully manifested.

In relationship readings, this rune isn’t bad, but rather weak. While it can indicate subtle ties between people, these are usually so, so subtle that the partners can easily drift away from each other. It can show that one of the partners sees the other as someone who needs to be protected and healed, rather than an equal. Usually, the romance is a bit stagnated when this rune appears, or very close to becoming a friendship.

Your Daily Tarot Power Card for November 20 is The Chariot

The Chariot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can succeed in your efforts if you maintain that willpower, and most of all, self-confidence! Sometimes this card can represent a physical journey that can take you to new lands for work or to chase a lover. Sometimes, however, this journey is more metaphorical, and can indicate that you’ll have to keep up the good work for quite some time. Recognition of your triumph can then come with financial rewards or some much-needed attention and praise for your achievement.

Your Daily Tarot Love Card for November 20 is The Pope

The Pope

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The word “experience” reminds us that some things, even involvement in faulty love, improve us through the practice. This card invites you to new, truthful relationships because you have been there and done that with deceptive people who dare to lie, even to the Pope. You are one step closer to the love you desire and deserve. Two people’s duet or symphony reaches a higher octave if in a relationship.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, November 21

Claire Petulengro, Astrologer

From The Astrology Room

 

ARIES (March 21st-April 20th)
You may have encountered many defeats, but you must not be defeated Aries. You may not realise it, but if you take a little glimpse back, then you will soon see that you have what it takes to stand up to those you bowed down to last month.

TAURUS (April 21st-May 21st)
I know you say you are not taking advantage of a loved one, but have you looked at the evidence lately Taurus. Try to play fair and to treat those you love as you would wish to be treated. Life is waiting to be lived.

GEMINI (May 22nd-June 21st)
There are several reasons for you to celebrate in the days and weeks ahead. You feel so much more aware of who is good and who is bad for you. In the process you decide who you want to separate yourself from.

CANCER (June 22nd-July 23rd)
You are really struggling with some really important decisions you need to make with your life. This in turn could lead you to say and do things which you don’t really mean. Step back and do what you know is the right thing.

LEO (July 24th-August 23rd)
Even you have to admit that you have been acting out of character of late. I know you have dreams and ambitions, but I also see that you are not doing a very good job of sharing your visions. You are in fact keeping them very much under wraps.

VIRGO (August 24th-September 23rd)
Many new interests open up to you and you begin to see who you have wasted your time and energy on and who you need to make more of a priority. Children bring good news and are the reason you feel your stress levels drop.

LIBRA (September 24th-October 23rd)
I know you have felt neglected by the very people you respected, but what you have yet to learn (and will before this month is over), is that you have the power on your own to make your dreams come true. Who joins you to support you of their own choice follows soon after.

SCORPIO (October 24th-November 22nd)
Why are you wasting your emotions on those who would not do the same for you? Surely a sign such as yourself should have learnt by now that you are at your best when you give one hundred per cent honesty. Time then to say who you no longer have the time and effort for.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23rd-December 21st)
You are approaching a new and really interesting phase of your life where you no longer worry about what others think of you but you act from the heart and only the heart. You’re about to make one of the best decisions of your life.

CAPRICORN (December 22nd-January 20th)
I can see that you’ve had to take time out to look after everyone but yourself. What important lessons have you learnt in this process Capricorn? That if you don’t take care of yourself, others won’t follow.

AQUARIUS (January 21st-February 19th)
Little problems can turn into big ones if you don’t deal with them as they occur. There’s a lot of hard work ahead, but I know you have the ability to achieve more this week than you have all year.

PISCES (February 20th-March 20th)
Work and play cross paths and you start to feel more positive about your future. You now see with ease what is possible and what you need to leave to time to solve. Arguments can’t be won with family now so bide your time.

Where You Born on November 20?

happy birthday, passionpussycat ♥

Born on Tuesday, November 20th

Living it up with the strong and sultry Scorpion


Because you don’t divulge a lot of the things that go on in your life, people know they can always trust you with their secrets.

If you were born on November 20, you are bursting with brilliant ideas! The passion that sits below the surface of your mind and mouth somehow finds a way to break free on a daily basis. You’re not one to sit still. Whether it’s starting a new project at work, planning a family vacation, or writing a speech that will change the world, you can be found plotting and planning something big! You have the capacity and the intellectual power to do important things. Take advantage of your skills and use them to make a positive change in your life and others’!

At your best: Enthusiastic, scrappy, idealistic
At your worst: Overzealous, intense, crazy

More About Scorpio

Uh oh … did we let the cat out of the bag? Scorpio, we know that you treasure your privacy and enjoy being mysterious, but really — can you at least reveal that it’s your birthday? You’ve got so many incredible qualities to celebrate and the people who love you truly want to honor you on this special day.

The Calm Before The Storm

Let’s take, for example, your incredible sense of calm and razor sharp ability to take care of those crisis-filled moments without even breaking a sweat. No other sign is as good in a traumatic situation as you are. In fact, the other, more easily frazzled souls out there tend to count on you to get them through life’s most tricky terrain. You’ve also got a penetrating ability to see right into the heart of anyone and instantly understand what makes them tick. A natural born psychologist, people may lean on you for emotional support — especially in times of catastrophe. If there’s anything you’re not, it’s superficial.

These qualities might, however, get in the way of anyone who tries to plan your surprise birthday bash. Why? Because you’re more likely than others to intuitively pick up on the unspoken vibes around you. In fact, you are known as one of the most psychic signs of the zodiac! Since few people have an ability to pull the wool over your eyes, Scorpio, you may have a tendency towards suspicion. Remember that an offensive approach to relationships will only lead to you attracting control and manipulation your way. When you go deep and surrender to trusting others … well that’s when your most amazing, healing energy shines.

The Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, November 20th

Claire Petulengro, Astrologer

From The Astrology Room

 

ARIES (March 21st-April 20th)
There is so much more to a sign such as yourself than first meets the eye. You have to try for the things you want to achieve in life, or you will never know if they can be yours. Ring now to hear how younger faces come to the fore and make your life a more enjoyable place to be.

TAURUS (April 21st-May 21st)
Life is like a bicycle, to keep your balance you must keep moving. I know the past keeps dragging you back, but I also see that it is a place you have outgrown and that you no longer need to focus on. Romantic surprises are in store.

GEMINI (May 22nd-June 21st)
You are an achiever because you are a Gemini and you should know by now that what others can’t face as a challenge, you can and will. Knowing what you want from a new friendship can make all the difference as to whether it is a temporary or permanent fixture.

CANCER (June 22nd-July 23rd)
There really is so much more to you than first meets the eye, which is why it is imperative that you give your close ones the ability to get up close and personal with you this week. I know you’re still analysing all that has happened in your personal life.

LEO (July 24th-August 23rd)
Don’t hide behind close ones but stand up and accept that a certain situation has come to a head. It is how you will best decide what your next move in life should be. Mercury helps you get the changes in the home you wanted but could not get last week.

VIRGO (August 24th-September 23rd)
Can you feel the air of excitement which is in your stars? I can and if you can smell even a whiff of it then you would be wise to get yourself ready both mentally and physically for all that is in store.

LIBRA (September 24th-October 23rd)
There is a really positive feel to your chart which means you should be able to charm all sorts of faces into supporting you for the big tasks you are undertaking this month. Don’t be afraid to be stricter towards new faces in business.

SCORPIO (October 24th-November 22nd)
Lies you tell in love will come back on you, so beware. Try to stick to truths only, as it is how you will find out what is and is not possible in romantic affairs. Big plans are afoot and your life should start to look and feel better than ever before.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23rd-December 21st)
As soon as you trust yourself, then you will know how to live my friend. For too long you have been dancing to the beat of others. You want to see who is trying to see you as much as they do, so stop playing games.

CAPRICORN (December 22nd-January 20th)
Professional matters you had hoped to tie up to your advantage still seem no nearer to completion and you would be wise to call and chase up those who owe you money or work. Ring now to hear why this is such a lucky month for proposals of all sorts.

AQUARIUS (January 21st-February 19th)
You are so much stronger than you believe. Don’t let your fear own you. Own yourself. You always had the rights, you just didn’t know it. Saturn the planet of structure hands you the words you wanted but could not find before.

PISCES (February 20th-March 20th)
Worries you have been having about your current ‘situation’ really are unfounded, so try to keep an even balance to all that is going on. It really is the only way you are going to manage to keep control. Call now to hear why any effort on your part is well worth while today.
