Wishing All Our Brothers & Sisters of The Craft, A Very Beautiful & Blessed Tuesday!
The Goddess is Alive
Moon shines down upon a sea of Light,
Shifting sands lay singing in the Heart of the Night.
I looked upon a scene that gripped me to the core,
White-clad maidens below were dancing on the shore.
Sweet sounds slipped from moon-lit throats,
Wind whipped hair abound,
Lit by the light within and without,
The Women circled ’round.
As I stood, water engulfed my feet,
My body swayed to your Heavenly Heart beat.
Wind and wave and fire light,
Paled in my mind Earthly delight.
Time slipped by me as you held your embrace,
And windblown spray covered my face.
Protected deep within your Womb,
I could feel the tender pain of Life’s bloom.
Candles flared high as the Dance progressed,
Deep inside with a healing touch you blessed.
All around, wind, wave and fire shouted of your life,
Your light speared deep within, soothing my strife.
Divine Mother, Goddess of Light,
To you I come seeking protection from the night.
Come home to shelter within your arm,
Surrounded by Love, hidden from harm.
Holy Mother, Queen of Heaven and Earth,
From you we all trace our Birth.
Heavenly Goddess, light from above,
Shine down upon us, we pray for your Love.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac for Mar. 28:
FLOWERS YOU CAN EAT
But did you know that the flowers of hundreds of common wild and cultivated plants are edible? Yes, there are many flowers that you can eat!
For centuries, humans have foraged or cultivated flowers and flower buds for food, drink, and medicine. Think broccoli, cauliflower, and artichoke, stuffed or stir-fried squash blossoms dill-flower spiked pickles, chamomile and jasmine tea.
But did you know that the flowers of hundreds of common wild and cultivated plants are edible? Dressing up your soups, salads, drinks, and desserts with buds and flowers will add color, diversity, and new flavor to your meals. Adventurous folks might also want to explore some of the traditional medicinal uses of common flowers.
When preparing most flowers (exceptions: squash, violets, and nasturtiums) for food or beverage, use only the petals for best flavor. Remove the sepals, as well as the pistils and stamens.
FAVORITE EDIBLE FLOWERS
- Nasturtium sits at the top of my list. It’s easy to grow from seed, indoors or out, and every above-ground part is edible. Its buds and delicate, voluptuous blossoms spice up a bland salad or cooked vegetable platter. Nasturtium leaves and flowers are rich in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds, and have a long history of medicinal use in indigenous cultures for urinary-tract, cardiovascular, and respiratory disorders. Extracts of this cabbage-family relative are currently under investigation as possible treatments for many diseases, including antibiotic-resistant infections.
- Daylily Harvested fresh, the plump buds and meaty flowers of this common garden plant are delicious sauteed in a little oil or butter, then seasoned with salt and pepper. Some people stuff the just-opened blossom with a favorite stuffing mix, then saute the stuffed flowers in a little oil or poach them in broth. Use only freshly harvested buds/flowers.
- Violets I’ve already written about my love of the irrepressible wild violets that pop up all over my lawns and gardens. Give it a read, and tend your lawn violets with care!
- Roses The darker-colored, more aromatic the variety the more flavor it will have. Strew rose petals across a fresh salad, brew them into tea, or use the entire blossoms to decorate a cake.
- Sunflowers Carefully separate the petals and sprinkle them into salads. For a real treat, harvest the unopened buds, remove the sepals, and steam the buds until tender. Meaty and filling, they taste like artichoke. Mmm!
- Chamomile Dried or fresh, chamomile tea is renowned as a safe and gentle calming and sleep-promoting agent. It’s readily available in stores (buy flowers in bulk), and easy to grow in the home garden.
- Calendula A lovely and easy-to-grow annual flower, calendula petals will add color and spice to just about any cooked or fresh dish. Carefully remove the petals and toss them into salad, stir-fries, or your favorite rice dishes.
Calendula flowers are renowned for skin care and healing. You’ll find calendula listed as an ingredient in many high-end skincare products and healing creams.
Here’s a nice recipe for homemade calendula oil or cream: Pull the petals from enough dried or fresh calendula blossoms to give you a cup. Add petals to a cup of olive oil in a large glass jar with a lid; seal and leave in a sunny window or outside for a week or two. After straining out the petals, you can use the oil as is, or heat it in a double boiler with ¼ cup of melted beeswax to make a spreadable cream.
Some caveats
- Never eat a flower you can’t identify with absolute certainty and know to be safe.
- Don’t eat commercially grown flowers or flowers that came from a florist; they could have been sprayed.
- Don’t forage wild flowers on treated lawns or along well-traveled roadways (possibility of chemical contamination).
- Introduce a new edible flower or floral tea slowly and gradually, especially if you have a serious ragweed or other pollen allergy. On your first try, take a few deep sniffs, then only a bite or two.
- Because flowers may contain powerful phytocompounds (which confer their healing virtues, as well as their flavors and colors), check with your healthcare professional before eating edible flowers if you’re pregnant or taking prescription drugs.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac for Mar. 28th: MAKING AN HERBAL SALVE
MAKING AN HERBAL SALVE
Herbal salves (a term often used interchangeably with ointments, creams, balms, and unguents; I’ve never found definitions that differentiate them clearly) have come down through the ages as the premier household first-aid for scrapes, burns, wounds, itches, stings, bruises, diaper rashes, and more.
Often expensive to buy, they’re relatively cheap and easy to make.
Early to midsummer is a great time of year to try your hand at it. Many healing herbs are in full leaf and have just begun to flower, concentrating their active healing constituents in their aboveground parts. (Fall is a good time to make root-based salves.)
I like to start with an herb-infused oil, which involves slightly wilting, then chopping and bruising the leaves or flowers I’ve collected, packing them loosely into a clean glass jar, and covering them with oil. I cover the top of the jar with a piece of cheesecloth or a coffee filter secured with a rubber band. This lets moisture that would otherwise spoil the salve escape from the jar.
Then I just leave the jar in a sunny windowsill for two or three weeks, shaking or stirring the infusion whenever I think of it, usually once or twice a day. I use a long wooden spoon for stirring.
When the herbs have infused long enough, I strain the plant material out with a cheesecloth, catching the oil in a glass pitcher, twisting the end of the cloth to squeeze as much oil as possible from the leafy material.
The final step: melting pure beeswax (use a double boiler on the stove or a pyrex cup within a glass bowl in the microwave), and adding it to the infused oil in a ratio of about five parts oil to one part melted wax. Stir with a wooden spoon and store in a sterilized glass or metal container.
It’s easy to adjust the consistency of a salve by adding a bit more oil to make it more spreadable or a bit more beeswax to thicken or harden it. Homemade salves without any preservative agents will last about six to eight months at room temperature out of direct heat and sunlight. Refrigerated, they’ll keep for a year or more.
Today I’m making a general-purpose household salve of comfrey and plantain leaves–the comfrey has just begun to flower at the edge of my vegetable garden, and the plantain grows abundantly in the lawn. I added the chopped leaves to a combination of grapeseed and coconut oiI, though I could have used olive, sunflower, sesame, or one of the exotic (and expensive) nut oils. Our ancestors didn’t have access to pressed oils; they made their healing ointments from bear grease, lard, and other animal fats, which reportedly have healing powers of their own.
I also could have used burdock, lemon balm, yarrow, self-heal, or one of dozens of wild and cultivated plants that flourish around here. Later in the season, I plan on making flower salves from mullein, calendula, and St. John’s wort. It’s fun to experiment and learn about the herbs and their uses as you go.
Although herbalists no longer recommend comfrey for internal consumption, it enjoys wide renown as a wound healer (in fact, it helps new skin form so fast, herbalists don’t recommend using it for deep wounds that require slow healing). Plantain enjoys equal renown as an anti-itch, anti-inflammatory herb.
My comfrey-plantain salve is versatile. I’ll use it on itches and stings, chapped hands and lips, cracked heels, ragged cuticles, nicks, cuts, and scrapes. It also works wonders on diaper and heat rash.
One caution: Clean and disinfect a fresh wound, then wait for it to stop bleeding before applying any salve. You don’t want to seal in an infectious agent.

The Old Farmer’s Almanac for Mar. 28: HOW TO MAKE AN HERBAL TINCTURE
HOW TO MAKE AN HERBAL TINCTURE
HOW TO MAKE AN HERBAL TINCTURE
Herbal tinctures are age-old remedies that can help soothe and heal whatever might ail you. Here’s how to make herbal tinctures using plants from your garden.
WHAT IS AN HERBAL TINCTURE?
Last week I came across some Internet sites about herb-based first-aid kits. In addition to standard items such as scissors, bandages, and sterile gauze pads, most sites recommended packaged dried herbs for tea, a collection of essential oils, herbal creams and salves and a few alcohol tinctures.
Serendipitously, although I’m a teetotaler, I was heading for town that day to buy a bottle of vodka to make a few tinctures to supplement my own first-aid supplies. Herbal tinctures are really easy to make.
A traditional herbal tincture is made by steeping herbs in high-proof ethyl alcohol (sometimes vinegar) to extract and concentrate their medicinal constituents—molecules that plants have manufactured for self-protection and that we humans expropriate for our own medicinal use.
Ethyl alcohol tinctures are generally intended for internal use. Herbs tinctured in rubbing alcohol (isopropyl), witch hazel, or oil are called liniments, and are intended for external use only.
Although you can tincture leaves or needles, flowers, roots, and barks, either fresh or dried, I make mine mostly from fresh leaves harvested from my gardens, lawns and nearby wild places. Today, I’m gathering burdock leaves and flowers, the plantain running amok on the lawn, and the lemon balm beckoning from the herb garden.
THE ADVANTAGE OF TINCTURES
Depending on the condition being treated (or prevented), medicinal herbs can be brewed into teas or simmered into decoctions, mashed into poultices and salves, smoked (so their medicinal constituents enter the body through the lungs), or extracted into tinctures. Tinctures are generally taken internally a few drops at a time, several times a day, often in tea or juice. Some tinctures work well applied directly to wounds or skin infections.
Tinctures offer several advantages over other herbal formulations:
- Alcohol generally extracts and concentrates more of the valuable medicinal compounds than water extracts (e.g., teas, infusions, tisanes).
- In such concentrated form, tinctures are fast-acting.
- Alcohol tinctures made with at least 80-proof ethanol don’t spoil, and they maintain their potency for a long time if properly stored. (Tinctures made with wine or vinegar won’t extract as many active phytocompounds, and they won’t last as long, although they can be enjoyed in salad dressings and marinades.)
- Tinctures are portable and easy to tuck into a purse or traveling bag.
BEFORE YOU START
- You’ll need to learn something, preferably a lot, about how, why, when, to use a particular plant tincture, and in what dose. Read books and articles, attend workshops, consult with local herbalists.
- You need to be 100 percent certain you’ve properly identified the plant you plan to use. Do invest in some wild-plant field guides or join one of the local wild-plant identification workshops offered in your area.
- Tincture only those plants you know haven’t been treated with pesticides.
- Don’t use plants collected around the edges of commercially farmed fields or close to roadsides.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
- The plant parts you plan to tincture. To avoid diluting the alcohol with water, don’t wash them. (Roots are the exception; you may need to rinse or even scrub them lightly before chopping.) If the plant parts are already wet, lay them out and blot gently with a clean towel to dry them off. Discard any diseased or damaged material.
- A bottle of 80-proof (or higher) ethyl alcohol. Many herbalists prefer vodka, because it’s relatively colorless, tasteless and odorless.
- A glass jar with a tight lid. You don’t need large bottles for making an alcohol tincture; a tincture is a potent plant medicine administered only a few drops at a time. Start with small containers such as pint canning jars or empty peanut-butter or jam jars.
- Some small, dark bottles for storing the decanted tincture(s). Storing them in the dark helps protect their potency.
HOW TO MAKE AN HERBAL TINCTURE
Chop large leaves, flowers, or roots; leave delicate leaves and flowers whole. Then fill the glass jar loosely with the plant material, and add enough alcohol to cover the plant materials. Seal the jar tightly.
Label and date the jar. Include the plant parts tinctured and the type of alcohol used. Set the jar in a cool, dark place for a month or longer, shaking or stirring occasionally and adding more alcohol if needed to keep the plant materials covered.
Strain the tincture over a clean cheesecloth into a glass or ceramic container twisting the cloth to remove as much of the tincture as possible. Funnel the tincture into dark glass bottles and cap (or cork) tightly. Label and date each tincture and store in a cool, dark place.
You can increase the concentration of a tincture by straining out the original plant materials and adding fresh material.
CAVEATS
Like any healing agent, herbal remedies in any form can pack a lot of power, which includes adverse reactions. Learn as much as possible about the herb you’re using before you try it. Your homemade tinctures don’t offer a standard “dose.” Begin with a new tincture by trying a few drops in warm water or tea, and work up slowly until you experience the desired results.
If you’re pregnant, nursing, taking prescription medicine, or suffering from a chronic illness, don’t start on an herbal remedy without consulting a health professional. Always include your use of herbs in the information you provide to your medical and dental professionals.

Has someone promised too much and delivered little lately? If so, that someone lacks integrity. Promises that aren’t kept erode trust and trust is critical. You can’t ignore the fact that their actions do not match their words. The first caveat is to avoid being seduced by what someone is saying as they talk their way into your emotions. The second, and the advice now, is to step back and analyze the situation.
Your Daily Tarot Card for Thursday, March 28th is The Pope
Your Tarot Card of the Day
The Pope
Keywords: teaching, school, blessing, ritual, marriage, acting!
Astrological Correspondence: Taurus
As a priest, the Pope, or Hierophant, represents traditional values and moral development. He is the wise teacher or counselor guiding groups or collectives on their path in search for spiritual truth or meaning. Depicted as a religious figure in ceremonial vestments he interprets secret mysteries, divine law, and theological doctrine. Although this card implies that he is linked to the church, the Pope signifies not only organized religion but also focus on groups in general, such as schools, teams, companies – any group with fixed roles and assigned responsibilities. The Pope is a symbol for rules, procedures, structure, and ritual, creating harmony within groups and staying their course so they can find identity and progress as a whole. The negative imagery symbolizes dogmatism and inflexibility, extreme conformity, or conventionalism.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)
This is a good day to deal with taxes, debt, insurance issues, wills and inheritances because you’re focused and mentally alert. Do be aware of the restrictions of the Moon Alert above regarding important decisions and signing papers.

This is the second day with the Moon in your sign. The next time this happens will be April 23, 24 and 25. These are strong days for you because things will tend to go your way. Your luck is always a bit better when the Moon is in your sign.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
It’s Friday but you feel like hiding. You’re not being antisocial, you just want to be more low key and relax somewhere where you can watch the world go by and not be involved. You need time off for good behaviour.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
A friendship, perhaps with a female, is important you today. This is why you will go out of your way to engage with this person or perhaps help them in some way. You might also share your hopes and dreams for the future with them to see what they think.

Born on March 28, Happy Birthday Aries!
Happy Birthday Aries!
IF YOUR BIRTHDAY IS ON March 28, you are likely to do the unexpected. While you may be impulsive, you are still a thoughtful, cheerful and an idealistic Arian. Those born on this day are very open and honest individuals.
Arians, you can live in a dream world sometimes. Moreover, you can be confrontational to a point. You know your limits. You know how to get your point across so there is only a small degree of drama.
The March 28 birthday horoscope predicts that you are a spiritual Arian. You are constantly trying to improve your life. In order to be morally successful, Aries believe that there is a basic guide that we all must live. With this way of thinking and doing, you inspire others to reinvest their lives as well.
As your birthday astrology analysis shows you are intuitive and more than likely you know what your loved ones need or want before they do. This, in addition to your obsessive behavior, can be view as controlling.
It is only because you want what is best for your family but put a cap on how much you contribute to the situations of others and respect others people’s privacy.
A situation that can be full of twists and turns and can cause conflict is the 28th March birthday personality trait of being obsessive. This feeling does not exclude friendships. You can be territorial where your friends are concerned as well as your lover, Aries.
It is a good thing that this green monster does not appear frequently. Your friends know however, this is sure sign that you need to get some rest or that there is something else bothering you.
In love, your birthday predictions forecast that Arians can be highly sexual and expect their partners to reciprocate. When you are well into your relationship, you are likely to show more compassion to your mate.
You who are born on this day need continuous foreplay during sexual intercourse to avoid complacency. As long as you are stimulated, you remain loyal. Aries, you are known to put little notes as a reminder of your interest or love. You also like to receive gifts and naughty messages.
As was said earlier, the March 28 birthday meaning implies that you can be impulsive or unpredictable. You have a tendency to hop from one job to the next.
Aries zodiac sign adopts the attitude that once the fun is over, it is time to move on to something new and challenging. Even with moments of unemployment, you seem to manage your finances well. Money seems to drop in your lap sometimes.
If today 28 March is your birthday, you are always working for one cause or another. Your charm opens doors that usually are not open. Aries individuals are good raising money for charities and are always happy to get involved.
Maybe a career in social reform or welfare is the job for you. You are not likely to get bored with the many avenues of humanitarians.
Arians with zodiac birthday on 28th March, are typically healthy people with the exception of little anxiety issues. Personal problems can keep you up late at night confirming your moodiness the next day. Did you know that it could also cause your skin to do funny things?
It is true. Try drinking lots of water to combat issues with your skin, however. Techniques for anxiety include relaxation sounds or an actual trip down to the beach. Nature sounds are sure to put you at ease so you can sleep.
The nickname for a 28 March birthday should be Sunshine because you bring it to so many people when you are not in their business. Sometimes those born on March 28 can be controlling and obsessive with friends and family.
With your skills, you will be successful in a career that is multifaceted, as you get bored easily. Aries, you are in good health but could benefit from short get-a-ways. Go have some fun, Aries… you deserve it.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Thursday March 28
Moon Alert
We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The Moon is in Capricorn.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
Today you are concerned about your professional and business life. For some reason, personal details about your private life might be on public display. (Whaat?) You might want to help someone today and thereby, personalize a professional relationship.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Today you feel a strong urge to get away from your daily routine and go off somewhere to do something different. Ideally of course, you will get to the airport and jet away! If you can’t escape on a physical journey, you will enjoy study or mental journeys that allow you to learn something new.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Your emotional experiences will be more intense today. You might also attract someone who is pretty intense to you. (“Hi Darth.”) You might feel possessive about property or something that you own or even something someone else owns? “My precious!”
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today you will focus on personal relationships because the Moon is opposite your sign. Loved ones and partners will be more important to you than usual. However, conflicts will also be more emotional! Guard against reacting to others with a knee-jerk response. Think before you speak or do something.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Today you will likely have to put the welfare of someone else before your own, perhaps briefly or perhaps for the whole day. You’re not playing the martyr card – it’s just what’s happening. It can be gratifying helping others – and hopefully, it is.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Today you’re wearing your feelings on your sleeve. You need to be who you are and you want to express what you really feel when dealing with others. This is also a strong, romantic day for you. However, you might feel possessive about a loved one. Grab a chance to party!
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Today you might want to cocoon at home and enjoy your own privacy. You need a chance to catch your breath, and put your feet up and relax, especially among familiar surroundings. Why not regroup and replenish yourself before the weekend? Good idea.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
Conversations with others will be important to you today. You want to get down to the nitty-gritty of things and talk about the truth of something. You don’t want to skate over something important and pretend you don’t see the elephant in the room. (“Dumbo? Is that you?”)
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Friendships will be important you today. This is why you feel protective and supportive to a friend more than usual. Of course, you want some attention from them in return. In fact, you’ll be jealous if they pay attention to someone else.

Love Secrets Hidden in the Elements of the Moon
Love Secrets Hidden in the Elements of the Moon
Striving to understand yours lover’s deepest and most secret romantic desires? Look to the element of their moon sign. The zodiac moon sign is reflective of an individual’s deepest and most personal wishes and love secrets. Knowing if it falls under fire, water, air, or earth can give you great insight in understanding what they want most out of romance and love. The nature of the moon can be mysterious and delves beyond consciousness. Therefore at times these longings are unconscious and your lover might not even be fully aware of them. Fulfilling your partner’s deepest desires hidden from the world or even themselves will create a romance beyond fantasy. Below are some hints in figuring out what your lover really wants in their love life.
Fire Moon Sign (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius)
The individual with a fire moon sign desires passion. They want spontaneity and surprise in their romance. Even if this individual only has fire in their moon sign, there’s a streak of wildness in how they want to be loved. Fire moon signs don’t mind risk; in fact they revel in it. They don’t, however, enjoy oversensitivity or negativity.
Water Moon Sign (Scorpio, Cancer, Pisces)
This is an individual whose heart withholds hidden depths plunging deeper than the other elements. They long for such depths in their romance. An intuitive connection is key in reaching their seemingly bottomless core. Water moon signs want to be emotionally and psychically understood. These signs do need sensitivity and moments of extra loving support.
Air Moon Sign (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius)
The way to their heart is through their head. Air moon signs desire intelligence in their partners. While every healthy relationship needs good communication, Air moon signs are especially verbally and physical expressive. They want to be cognitively understood and they want freedom to do new things. They don’t want to be caught in the same kind of routine over and over again.
Earth Moon Sign (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn)
These individuals crave for stability and routine in their romances. Earth moon signs want ritual and plans within their romance to provide a sense of comfort. The way they see it, the less risk involved the better. Even if their sun sign falls outside of earth or even falls on a fire sign, these folks do want a sense of security in the relationship. They want to be respected as they are and they don’t want someone who tries to throw them off their own path or out of their comfort zone.
