Did I sort of go over the top about it being Friday, lol! It just seems like it has been an extremely long week. But then the weekend will come and go, like a flash in the pan. Can’t win for losing, lol!
I hope you like the new design of the site. I have thumbed through themes in the back and couldn’t find anything I liked. But I wanted a change, so I figured I would play a little. If you don’t like it or find to it hard to navigate, let me know. Oh, there are links at the top but the categories at the side are still there. I haven’t tried to change things too much. Again, hope you like it.Have a great weekend, my luvs!

SALTED FIRE LOVE SPELL

Sit in front of a fire, go into alpha, and hold some kosher salt in your left hand.
Allow your feelings for the one you love to go into the salt.
Just as the salt is sprinkled on food to flavor it, visualize your love flavoring the salt.
Then toss it into the flames and say:
“It is not this fire I wish to salt,
but the heart of the man/woman I love.
If it is good for the both of us,
may both our hearts burn
with true love for each other.
So mote it be.”

INCENSE TO DRAW LOVE TO YOU

Need: 3 parts rosemary, 2 parts yarrow, 1 part orris root, incense burner
Combine the ingredients into the incense burner – makes a great addition when
casting a love spell or taking a love bath!

Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscope for Jan. 13th – 15th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Dream a Little Dream

January 13 – 15

This Friday the 13th could be lucky for lovers and those seeking love. The fastidious Virgo Moon isn’t usually thought of as romantic, but amour’s leading lady Venus is running the show now, making this a day of delights wherever you go. She joins limitless Neptune in the morning to inspire dreams of boundless affection. This connection spurs fantasies that may be difficult to fulfill, but with some creativity and a dash of intuition, anyone in love can make this a magical time. Use your imagination to come up with special activities that go beyond the usual restraints of routine social events. Indulging in artistic endeavors such as music, poetry and film are ways to stimulate one’s appetite for love. Or dress up and go dancing to make ordinary life feel like a Hollywood movie.

Venus slips into surreal Pisces on Friday night, allowing dreams to overflow into the light of day for the next three weeks. The Moon’s move into harmonious Libra, the partnership sign, on Saturday morning keeps relationships and romance on the front burner. Treating others the way you want to be treated could be the key to the kingdom of contentment. Venus’ cooperative connection with expansive Jupiter favors generosity, yet the Moon’s stressful square with suspicious Pluto could darken moods with shadows of mistrust or jealousy. Gently addressing unpleasant feelings is healthier than burying them in quiet resentment.

13 Trivial Facts About Friday the 13th

Why Friday the 13th Is Unlucky

Paraskevidekatriaphobia: Friday the 13th Origins, History, and Folklore

By David Emery, About.com Guide

I HAVE before me the abstract of a 1993 study published in the British Medical Journal provocatively titled “Is Friday the 13th Bad for Your Health?”

With the aim of mapping “the relation between health, behaviour, and superstition surrounding Friday 13th in the United Kingdom,” its authors compared the ratio of traffic volume to the number of automobile accidents on two different days, Friday the 6th and Friday the 13th, over a period of years.

Incredibly, they found that in the region sampled, while consistently fewer people chose to drive their cars on Friday the 13th, the number of hospital admissions due to vehicular accidents was significantly higher than on “normal” Fridays. Their conclusion:

“Friday 13th is unlucky for some. The risk of hospital admission as a result of a transport accident may be increased by as much as 52 percent. Staying at home is recommended.”

Paraskevidekatriaphobics — people afflicted with a morbid, irrational fear of Friday the 13th — will be pricking up their ears about now, buoyed by seeming evidence that the source of their unholy terror might not be so irrational after all. It’s unwise to take solace in a single scientific study, however, especially one so peculiar. I suspect these statistics have more to teach us about human psychology than the ill-fatedness of any particular date on the calendar.

Friday the 13th, ‘the most widespread superstition’

The sixth day of the week and the number 13 both have foreboding reputations said to date from ancient times. It seems their inevitable conjunction from one to three times a year (there will be three such occurrences in 2012, exactly 13 weeks apart) portends more misfortune than some credulous minds can bear. According to some sources it’s the most widespread superstition in the United States today. Some people refuse to go to work on Friday the 13th; some won’t eat in restaurants; many wouldn’t think of setting a wedding on the date.

How many Americans at the beginning of the 21st century suffer from this condition? According to Dr. Donald Dossey, a psychotherapist specializing in the treatment of phobias (and coiner of the term paraskevidekatriaphobia, also spelled paraskavedekatriaphobia), the figure may be as high as 21 million. If he’s right, no fewer than eight percent of Americans remain in the grips of a very old superstition.

Exactly how old is difficult to say, because determining the origins of superstitions is an inexact science, at best. In fact, it’s mostly guesswork.

Friday! Friday! Friday! Thank Goodness The Weekend Is Almost Here!

Days Of The Week Comments

Hello, my dear friends! I hope you are having a fantastic Friday the 13th. Are you superstition and believe bad things happen on this day? Personally I don’t even think a thing about it. There are even occasions when I realize it was Friday the 13th after the day was over with. I know my little pup, Kiki, will think it is a very unlucky day. I have to take her to the Vet today. She was playing with Stinker and Razzy and rounded a corner and ran into the leg of a cabinet. She has hurt her shoulder. I took her to our regular Vet and he told me she just pulled a muscle and she was a drama queen. That pissed me off. He didn’t do a damn thing for her except give me four pain pills and shove us out the door. He kept talking about how she needed her shots. I told him I agreed completely and I knew she needed her shots. But first, I wanted her shoulder taken care of. He acted like he didn’t hear me. He was more concern with giving her the shots because he would make about $100.00. More concerned with a dollar than the health of an animal, some Vet. So I found another Vet, I am going to take her today. Hopefully this Vet will do something to make her better. I know you are going to think this is strange but I have heard others ask what I am getting ready to ask you. Kiki is my family. I love her to pieces and it kills me to see her in pain. I have been able to take the pain away when she hurts but it always comes back in a few days. Would you please send some healing energy to her. With you and me together perhaps we can permanently heal her shoulder and she will never be in pain again. I would appreciate it so much and I know Kiki will also.

Enough with my troubles. Have a great weekend!

Thank Goddess It’s Friday! What A Week!

Days Of The Week Comments Hello dear friends! I don’t know where my brain is today. I have known all morning today is Friday. Then I went to put the graphic up here, I was going to put up a Thursday graphic. I had to check the little calendar in the corner of my computer to make sure it was Friday! I’m I nuts or what? This is what I get for staying up too late. I have a blog that I use strictly for graphics, so I pulled it up. I started browsing through the templates and found one I loved. Well I put it on the blog. I got all the graphics up and the widgets laid out. Then I decided, “Yes, I am going to change the graphics on the main blog!” Now keep in mind, this is at 3:30 a.m. I come over here and start to change things around. Then in the middle of changing things here, it hit me. This new template has all the characteristics as this one. The only difference is the title is in a small fancy banner but everything else is the same. I played with this new template for about 1 1/2 hours. Now in twenty minutes I found out the two are basically the same and I have wasted the night. If I could have kicked my own butt, I would have. I tried to get Kiki (Pom pup) to bite me with no luck. *Note to self: Get a dog big enough to reach rump and willing to bite in extreme situations of stupidity!*

Have a great weekend, my luvs!

SPELL TO KEEP BEAUTY FROM FADING

When all your face appears most fair, When the comets and meteors gild your hair, and in your eyes the moon and sun Contest, surrender, and burn as one, when ivory Venus smoothes your brow, And Mars recurves your lips’ red bow, make haste to utter this binding verse And hold the stars on their kindest course…
“Figure of fire,
That shifts and changes,
Planets that move
By heaven’s hinge,
Be siged and fixed
Forever here,
And close my image
Within thy sphere”
Measure a yard of golden string Loose from your fingers let it swing,
Then tie it in thirteen sturdy knots, Hide it among your scents and pots.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of January 2nd

The weekend starts out on a sassy note with the playful Gemini Moon’s creative connections to the cosmic lovers Venus and Mars. This flirtatious mood passes quickly, though, as the mood-setting Moon slips into sensitive Cancer on Saturday afternoon. Feelings shift for no reason and plans change without warning, reminding us to be flexible to maintain emotional balance.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Finding your comfort zone could be challenging this weekend with an awkward alignment of alluring Venus and aggressive Mars on Friday. Statements may be misinterpreted and stronger emotions might follow during the next two days that arouse defensive feelings. A little bit of discretion, an open mind and a strong dose of self-control can go a long way to help you avoid frustration and frayed nerves.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your peace-loving ruling planet Venus is shaken by tense planetary patterns this week. Volatile Uranus springs surprises on Monday and provocative Pluto arouses mistrust on Saturday. Adjusting your social expectations helps you avoid feeling bullied or being perceived as stubborn. Still, addressing your deep feelings this weekend could strengthen a relationship if you’re able to discuss them without engaging in a blame game or falling victim to shame.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The Moon in your chatty sign is rich with social opportunities on Friday. The flirtatious side of your personality casts you in a positive light as long as you don’t take yourself too seriously. The mood changes drastically on Saturday, possibly provoking you to question your self-worth and what you want from others. You may not resolve issues right away, so allow time for feelings to settle instead of pushing for immediate answers.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You may have the sense that something is coming to a head since this week finishes with an evocative Full Moon in your sign late on Sunday night. It’s important to weigh your options and open up the lines of communication to maintain some semblance of order in your relationship life. A constructive conversation could go a long way to making sense out an emotionally charged issue. There are many different ways to look at your situation, so keep your mind and heart open to what others have to say.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your ruling planet, the Sun, slips on an unsteady aspect with spacey Neptune on Wednesday that can stir up clouds of confusion. Feelings can change quickly this weekend, as a playful Friday of fun and frolicking turns more serious on Saturday and Sunday. Avoid making any major decisions until your clarity returns. It’s probably best now to spend some quiet time alone or with one person who you trust completely.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The reason that often guides your life can go up in a puff of smoke this weekend. The jittery Gemini Moon turns Friday into a kaleidoscope of contrasting feelings and confusing plans. Logic may return on Sunday when your brainy planet Mercury enters calculating Capricorn to help you communicate more clearly. Just don’t let a sense of certainty allow you to come across so strongly that you sound like you aren’t interested in listening to others.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your hopeful nature may be challenged on Saturday when sweet Venus is stressed by manipulative Pluto. While this cosmic tension could bring some important relationship issues to the surface, it could also sow seeds of mistrust with someone you love. But if you’re single, this transit can awaken feelings of intense desire or inspire you to exaggerate your flaws. The situation, though, is less extreme than you think, so try not to overreact unnecessarily.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be seeking the comfort of familiar places and faces this weekend. Yet you might be surprised by unexpected reactions that can throw you off balance now. Instead of looking to the past for the security you crave, it’s wiser to search for different experiences and ideas to freshen up your personal life. Strange individuals or unfamiliar situations can be exciting when you maintain a healthy spirit of adventure.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The Moon is traveling through your relationship houses this weekend, which is bound to energize your social life. Friday could be a blast with a lunar presence in lighthearted Gemini. However, the tone turns more serious on Saturday when feelings grow tender and complex issues in partnerships are exposed. Being gentle in the face of someone’s strong emotions helps you gain trust and can deepen your connection in the long run.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

The Moon enters your 7th House of Partners on Saturday, putting relationship issues on the front burner for the rest of the weekend. But this lunar transit is in subjective Cancer, which challenges you to push past reason to connect on an emotional level. Feelings can run the gamut from excitement to mistrust, which undercuts stability, yet you may be headed toward an emotional breakthrough triggered by the reflective Cancer Full Moon late Sunday night.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Thursday and Friday are great times for fun and games. The clever Gemini Moon’s presence in your 5th House of Romance puts more sparkle in your personality. It may be hard, however, for others to know whether you’re being serious or not. If you’re just teasing, it’s helpful to give some broad hints so that your behavior isn’t misinterpreted and you end up spending the rest of the weekend making amends.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be a little antsy this weekend since you can already anticipate the reflective Cancer Full Moon lighting up your 5th House of Romance very late on Sunday night. Friday may be festive and fun, but feelings grow stronger and more intense with the Moon slipping into caring Cancer on Saturday. Some emotional drama is possible, so give yourself and others a little slack for going over the top. Sometimes you have to go to extremes to discover your limits.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of December 26th

Creating harmony in relationships, both new and old, can be difficult in this last week of 2011. Amorous Venus in freedom-loving Aquarius wants to experiment while passionate Mars in practical Virgo prefers to stick to familiar patterns. Flexibility is needed to maintain peace and end the year on a happy note.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Rest up on Friday night while the Moon is visiting your sleepy 12th house, because it’s firing into your sign early on Saturday morning and turning up the heat in your personal life. You’re hungry for new experiences and are not likely to be thrilled by a traditional and totally predictable New Year’s Eve. Do your best to avoid pushing reluctant individuals to make changes, because they might push back even harder. A less aggressive approach allows others to compromise and meet you halfway.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Friends can warm your heart on Thursday and Friday with the sweet and tender Pisces Moon’s presence in your 11th House of Groups. But you may either be too tired, shy or disinterested to be a hardy partier during the rest of the weekend. A lunar transit in your ultra-private 12th house could have you sitting on the sidelines, or you may simply decide that quiet time with a few trusted people is the best way to ring in the New Year.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Fast talking is fun this weekend, but there’s a risk of rubbing someone the wrong way on Saturday night. Your chatty planet Mercury crashes into a stressful square with combative Mars, which can turn a minor difference of perspective into a major fight. If you’re irritated or impatient, take a break and consider whether you want to argue about a petty detail that can make the night memorable in the wrong way. Your best move might be to smile and shake it off or, if that’s not possible, simply walk away.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You can cuddle up in the comfort of sweet feelings on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday with the Moon swimming in sister Water sign Pisces. But the mood and tempo change on Saturday morning with a lunar shift into impetuous Aries. If you’re ready for a raucous time, you will love the high intensity atmosphere. But if you don’t like to be rushed in the pursuit of pleasure, seek out the company of quieter folks who are happy to slip away to someplace more private.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon rockets into rambunctious Aries on Saturday to put some passion into your weekend. You’re looking for a lively partner and exciting experiences to ring in the new year. Sticking to the usual routine is not likely to be your idea of fun, so make this a time to experiment. Just don’t let unnecessary impatience, a petty disagreement or elaborate plans dowse the fires of discovery that are driving you. Maintaining your generosity of spirit and wicked sense of humor enables you to shine as the life of the party.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Relationships might be especially complicated this week. The Moon’s presence in peaceful Pisces and your 7th House of Partners brings some tender moments and spurs romantic dreams on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. But then a lunar transit into impatient Aries and your 8th House of Deep Sharing on Saturday morning can detonate some emotional bombs. This could be amazing if you’re ready for passion, yet it requires your willingness to take risks to fully enjoy it.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Things are heating up just in time to celebrate the New Year. The mood-setting Moon enters fiery Aries and your 7th House of Partners on Saturday morning to provoke excitement and increase your readiness for new experiences. It helps to have a dynamic partner who is ready for anything to join you in riding this rising wave of passion. Whether you’re into it for one night or for eternity, there are few limits to how far you’re willing to go. Have fun exploring new territory, but don’t get too close to the edge.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You could have a delicious time this week with the imaginative Pisces Moon’s visit to your 5th House of Romance on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. It seems like you can turn fantasies into reality, giving you the surreal feeling that you’re starring in a movie. Promises made and expectations raised encounter a stiff dose of reality starting on Saturday morning. If you’re disappointed over the weekend, don’t allow it to lead to a petty fight. It’s wiser to let go and head in a new direction than to get dragged into a conflict where no one wins.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The Moon blazes into incendiary Aries on Saturday morning to raise your emotional temperature for the weekend. This lunar transit could ignite instant fires of passion in your 5th House of Romance. Falling in love with someone new can happen in an instant, but your need for fresh experiences might put some pressure on an ongoing relationship. Whether you’re celebrating with a partner or friends, incorporating elements of surprise could do the trick. Work your magic and create some new rituals for the New Year that everyone will enjoy.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Entertaining within your comfort zone might be your best bet for New Year’s Eve while the independent Aries Moon visits your 4th House of Roots. Whether this means celebrating with old pals at your favorite watering hole or having people party at your house, it’s important that you feel comfortable. If you’ve been the host in the past, try making the event a little different this year by adding some surprising elements. In fact, a quiet evening alone enjoying some rest and relaxation might sound like the best idea of all.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Don’t let your head get in the way of your heart this weekend. Although this is a time to cut loose and have fun, your analytical mind could get stuck on a subject that becomes contentious. Word games are fun and you enjoy playfully sparring with clever people. Just be smart enough to notice when you or someone else is getting close to the edge of discomfort. Your “live and let live” attitude is an antidote to this potential for conflict. However, a bit of sensitivity keeps the emphasis on fun.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You might want to celebrate the New Year early with the Moon’s presence in your magical sign on Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday. Your emotions may be strong, but your compassion and imagination make this a special time. A lunar shift into impulsive Aries on Saturday intensifies the rest of the weekend with an edge of excitement and a sense of danger in the air. Unless you’re in a risk-taking mood, seek out the safety net of reliable people and predictable places to find your fun.

A SPELL TO HELP LIFT HARD FEELINGS AND HEAL EMOTIONAL RIFTS

Item needed: 1 Quartz crystal
Find a nice quiet place where you can lay down, place the quartz crystal on you third eye and say:
“I call upon Gula, great goddess of Healing,
Guide the help to direct any bad feelings,
See this dark specters reeling.
By the grace of your power I ask you to heal them.
Teach each to feel what the other feels,
By the power of three, I wish it to be.”
If you focus on one person the spell will affect that person a little better than just doing in general.

Hello Wonderful World! It’s Friday! It’s Friday! Ya-Hoo!

Yule Comments & Graphics
Hello dear friends! It’s Friday! I bet you would have never guessed. Got busy plans for the weekend? Getting those last-minute gifts? Or just starting your Yule and Christmas shopping? I haven’t bought anything yet. For the last couple of years, I have waited to the very last-minute to buy anything. I know what it stems from my daughter (the one that use to tell me I was going to hell all the time) would make comments that I didn’t appreciate about Yule. She got to the point were she would ask me, “Not buying any presents or putting up a Christmas tree this year?” My reply would be, “Yes, when Yule gets closer, I will buy presents and put up the Yule Tree.” I think she associated presents with both Yule and Christmas. So she wanted to know what this “Yule” was all about. I told her and now she doesn’t ask when all the goodies are going to appear.

But speaking of Yule, this weekend the WOTC will have its’ Annual Yule Edition. This year it is going to be an all weekend event. We will features Yule spells, rituals, home-made gifts, ideas for children, Pagan Yule carols and much more. You will have plenty to read and plenty of ideas to make this a great Yule for you and your family.

As Venus lends its sensuous influences to the energies of this day, use it for any magical work that deals with matters of the heart.

Spellcrafting For Today

THE “PERFECT LOVE FOR ME” SPELL

On a Friday, in the waxing phase of the Moon, (from new to just before and including full Moon)
take two long red candles, a piece of parchment, pen and ink, a pie plate (for safety’s sake) and
find a quiet place free from interruptions. Write on one side of the parchment “The Perfect Love For Me”,
and on the other side, draw a semi-circle.
On one of the candles scratch in “The perfect love for me” and on the other, scratch in your name.
Place the parchment in the pie plate with the semi-circle side up.
Place the one candle (in a holder if need be) that has your name on it on the inside of the semi-circle,
the other one (once again, holder okay) on the outside of the circle. Light the candles, concentrating
on your desire for a perfect love. Let it burn for about an hour, snuff them both using a snuffer or your
fingers (do not blow them out) and on each night thereafter, walk the outer candle closer to the center
of the semi-circle, burning the candles for about an hour each night. Once the outer candle is close
to the inner one, take the same pen you used originally and close the circle around the two in a
clockwise direction. Allow the candles to burn out. When done, burn the parchment and save
the ashes and any left over wax in a small bag (preferably red) under your pillow until your love arrives.
As with all magic, you must really desire this, and put that desire into your spell.
Your love should arrive soon. If you only wish someone to date, you can also put that instead of
perfect love on the candle and parchment.

Spellcrafting of the Day

LOVE SPELL

Get a box and put in it clippings of people you find in magazines that you find attractive
(or parts of those people you find attractive), a red wax heart, a red rose, a rose quartz
gemstone, and a ring. Also, get a red, pink, or green candle (whichever you associate
with love) and anoint it with your own saliva. When this is not lit and placed beside of
the box when you do the magic, it should be kept in the box.
Get a spool of yarn and start tying knots in it, so many that you will be making a whole
poppet/dolly out of the yarn and knots, while you recite what type of person you want,
and their qualities; this is while the candle is burning. When you do not work on the dolly,
put it in the box. This spell usually works in a few days, and you don’t even have time to
finish the dolly but DO NOT throw this stuff away.
Keep it under your bed when not in use and when you meet that Mr. or Mrs. Right.

Your Weekend Love Horoscope for Nov. 18th – 20th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

A Different Kind of Love

November 18 – 20

Serious fun is on the menu for Friday night, even though the Moon’s move into methodical Virgo — a sign more associated with work than play — occurs earlier in the afternoon. The Virgo Moon’s practicality and focus on details can burst romantic bubbles and ground high hopes. However, the analytical abilities of Virgo may also be applied to untangle knots of misunderstanding and correct unhealthy habits. But on Friday night the Moon’s harmonious trine with jolly and generous Jupiter, followed by a conjunction with passionate Mars, can provide the motivation and enthusiasm to learn a new dance or cook a complex dinner, all in the name of pleasure. Demonstrating efficiency or cultivating skills may not sound sexy, but competence is a very desirable and useful quality now.

Saturday is perfect for doing tasks with the one you love to combine productivity and closeness. Sunday’s mood is extremely different with the steamy Scorpio Sun’s strong square to fantasy-loving Neptune. This dreamy and spiritual aspect and the Moon’s shift into lovely Libra in the afternoon provide a delightful atmosphere for romance. Use imagination to create a unique environment or a special experience that’s a getaway from ordinary reality, and a ticket to a dreamland where worries melt away and two hearts can beat as one.

Hey there, dearies! I hope you are having a great Friday. Pardon me for going a little crazy in the title. I went to bed at 3 a.m., and got woke up at 6 a.m., by a baby wildcat that wanted breakfast. The pens that the wild animals stay in isn’t that far from my end of the house. When they wake up and are hungry, I get to hear them loud and clear. There are four little wildcats, three of them are eating great. But the runt of the bunch is having a hard time getting the hang of eating. So I bring him in the house and bottle feed him and then give him some food on my finger. Well about 8 o’clock, I got so sleepy I couldn’t stand it. The rest of the house animals were piled up in my bed, so I said what the heck. I brought the little kit in the bedroom. The blinds I had already pulled up and the sun was shining on the bed. So I decided to teach the kit how to sun himself. I laid him on the bed and rubbed his stomach and he went right off to sleep. He enjoyed the sun, he would purr, stretch and roll around. I think he is getting a little spoiled, lol! It is amazing though my house babies don’t think a thing about him. Of course, I already have a wildcat kitten tamed and living in the house. My husband asked me why I didn’t go tame a bear and bring him in the house, lol! I can’t help it I love animals. But back to the story, we woke up or I should say I woke, the kit is still asleep. The kit woke up for a little bit and my house cat went over and gave him a bath, which blew my mind. But Stinky (house cat) did!

But between the animals and my late night hours, I am just a little goofy. I decided I wanted to change the look of the blog, if you haven’t noticed, lol! I was going for a wintery look and I couldn’t find any graphics I liked. So I gave up at 3 o’clock and went to bed. But I like the new look. The photo of the lady is another one of my favorites. I hope you like the look too. I try to keep the blog fresh and never boring. I do it for you to enjoy and also were you will come back and enjoy your visits here. I want this blog to be your first stop whenever you need anything regarding the Craft or if you are just curious and want to know more about us. All are welcome here and it will always be that way. Now…….

Your Weekly Love Horoscopes for November 14th

Working and learning mix well with playing this weekend while the Moon visits competent Virgo. Winging it won’t invite intimacy, but taking on a project with someone is a way to get closer while getting things done. Sunday is a day of rest or, at least, escape. The Sun’s spacey square with dreamy Neptune is ideal for pushing reality out of the way and letting fantasies rule.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Engaging in physical exercise can be a great way to connect with others this weekend. The Virgo Moon is traveling through your 6th House of Self-Improvement, which rewards you for purposeful efforts and planning ahead. However, there is a risk of being too critical or encountering people who focus on your flaws. Don’t waste time quibbling over minor details. Happily, Sunday is a time of forgiveness when mistakes can be erased with loving acts of kindness.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon is dancing in your 5th House of Romance on Friday and Saturday, which should add some extra spice to your personal life. Yet the lunar presence in precise Virgo works best when you have specific activities scheduled in advance. Nevertheless, it’s important to be flexible enough to alter your plans if necessary. Aiming for perfection is admirable, but it’s not helpful to be too self-critical. A little improvement goes a long way to bring you some positive attention.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Entertaining at your place makes perfect sense this weekend. The Virgo Moon’s presence in your domestic 4th house on Friday and Saturday enables you to feel more comfortable and cozy at home. There’s no need to get overly elaborate since a simple, well-planned experience is more likely to succeed than going overboard. The Moon shifts into lovely Libra and your 5th House of Romance on Sunday evening, offering up the possibility of having a delicious time with a delightful companion.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Serious discussions are on the agenda this weekend. The analytical Virgo Moon spends Friday and Saturday working in your 3rd House of Communication. Nitpicking over little things and worrying about minor matters isn’t constructive, but addressing real concerns in specific terms is advised. Putting your feelings into words isn’t always easy, but clarifying issues that are important to you is worth the effort.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Managing all of your resources wisely, including your time, money and energy, is essential this weekend. The careful Virgo Moon’s presence in your 2nd House of Self-Worth signals a definite need to be realistic and modest in your approach. Even if you’re feeling confident, it’s smart to avoid overloading yourself with too many activities. Doing less with greater attention to detail is more satisfying now and others can’t help but appreciate and admire your work.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The Moon in your sign this weekend casts you in the bright spotlight. It’s great to get all the attention as long as you’re not too hard on yourself in the process. Physical activities like dancing can be great fun on Friday night since you should have extra energy at your disposal. Letting your feelings rise to the surface might seem a little awkward, but it’s healthier to be honest than to hide your emotions now. Relationships rooted in reality have more chances for success as long as you speak from your heart.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

The Moon is hiding out in your secretive 12th house this weekend, which makes these better times for enjoying quiet, private events than being lost in the midst of a loud crowd. Intimate conversations or time alone can help you untangle some knots that inhibit your relationships. Connecting with others is easy once you are back to your usual charming and friendly self on Sunday night when the Moon moves into your sociable sign. Shining your light will attract the ones you love.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Friends and co-workers supplement your social life this weekend because going out with a group of people or connecting with someone through an organization can be surprisingly rewarding. Keep in mind that an attraction to a pal or colleague might complicate matters. Still, being with someone who shares your ideals and values can get a relationship off to a good start. The Moon slips into Libra and your 12th House of Privacy on Sunday night, which is perfect for enjoying some rest and relaxation.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may have too many obligations on your plate to be able to fulfill your social aspirations this weekend. The Moon is in your 10th House of Responsibility on Friday and Saturday, which occupies your time with a multitude of tasks. Still, taking care of business in a competent manner may impress others and makes you more desirable to someone special. Sunday night is a whole different ballgame once the Moon shifts into sociable Libra and your gregarious 11th house, enabling you to work the crowd with your charm and humor.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Breaking free from your usual activities is a wonderful way to liven up the weekend. The Virgo Moon is traveling through your adventurous 9th House on Friday and Saturday, encouraging you to explore unfamiliar territory. Participating in cultural events, especially from faraway places, can be extremely rewarding. Just don’t compare everything you see and do to your traditional tastes. Stepping outside of your comfort zone opens your mind to new forms of pleasure and delight.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Dealing with relationship complications may not be your idea of fun, but it could be just what the doctor ordered for this weekend. The rational Virgo Moon is in your 8th House of Intimacy, challenging you to address values and desires that are different from your own. Yet if you embrace this emotional process, you can enhance a current alliance or increase your chances of creating a new one. Just remember that being kind while being real is key.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Virgo Moon is hanging out in your 7th House of Partners on Friday and Saturday, which puts relationships front and center in your life. The challenge is to deal with matters in a more realistic way instead of letting your emotions get the best of you. Talking about what works and what doesn’t work is not the most romantic activity. Yet your willingness to examine issues in a mature manner builds the foundation for a successful union.

Weekend Lunar LoveScope for Nov. 11th – 13th

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

Don’t Worry, Be Happy

November 11 – 13

Variety is the spice of life this weekend with the Moon’s move into diverse and curious Gemini on Friday afternoon. We get bored easily in this breezy sign where distraction often makes it hard to maintain focus. Activities that are flirty and playful, as well as those that involve intellectual stimulation are suitable to this brainy but light-hearted sign. Commitment is hard to come by now so it’s better to remain flexible with plans and expectations than to try to resolve long-term partnership issues.

Lunar oppositions to communicative Mercury and creative Venus can charge up Saturday with laughter and lively conversations, acting as a cosmic invitation to find new forms of amusement. However, a tendency to make promises without thinking them through can make some people appear unreliable. But it is pleasant to be more concerned with being happy right now than worrying about where things might be going wrong. If there is some real work to finish or an important issue to address, Sunday is probably the best day to do it. Solid and sensible Saturn forms a favorable trine with the airy Gemini Moon which adds some grounding stability to this fun-filled but sometimes fickle sign.

Wishing You & Yours A Very Happy Friday & A Very Blessed Weekend!

–one egg one pink candle rose petals lemon balm honey rose oil (optional)
Take the egg in one hand.
Sit quietly and think about the relationship you have just ended, and your feelings about splitting up.

When you feel that the egg has sucked up all your unhappiness and negative feelings over
this broken relationship, take it to a plot of earth – preferably not your own garden – and bury it.
If it must be on your property, bury it as far as possible from your house.
Know that the negative feelings and depression you projected onto the egg are being
absorbed and neutralized by the earth.
Return to your house, preferably to your own bedroom or some place where you spend a lot of time.
Make yourself some lemon balm tea with some of the rose petals, and sweeten it to taste with honey.
Sprinkle the rest of the rose petals around the candle and yourself, if you have enough.
Light the candle. Imagine the warmth of the candle and the scent of the rose petals
_combining and filling the room with warmth, sweet rose scent and soft pink light.

If you have some, anoint your chest just over the heart with a little rose oil.
Sip the lemon balm tea. Say quietly and with conviction:

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of October 31st

Relationships require more stimulation this week with the love planet Venus moving into restless Sagittarius on Wednesday. Chatty Mercury makes the same shift just a few hours later, opening mouths to speak more freely while spurring hearts to seek excitement. Traveling to new locations and interacting with people from distant cultures are good ways to scratch an itch for romantic adventure.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

The Moon slips into tender Pisces and your 12th House of Privacy on Friday morning, which may take you out of the spotlight until Sunday. But spending quiet time with one caring person or even resting up on your own can be a relaxing break from your busy life. It also gives you a chance to review your relationship history, helping you to recognize outmoded habits that need to go so you can be free to fulfill your personal desires.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Stepping out of your comfort zone isn’t always easy but the rewards are well worth the effort now. Your alluring ruling planet Venus enters risk-taking Sagittarius and your 8th House of Intimacy on Wednesday, which raises the stakes in the game of love. If you’re willing to overcome your old limits and give up a little control, you can connect with an exciting new individual or put the spark back into your current partnership.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The opportunities to get more joy out of a current relationship or connect with new and interesting people should multiply this week. Magnetic Venus dances into your 7th House of Partners on Wednesday, making you more attractive to others. If you’re feeling adventurous, you could find a desirable partner who is very different than you. But if you’re already in a relationship, planning a special excursion together will spice things up.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Get ready to spread your wings and fly this weekend. The wistful Pisces Moon is sailing through your 9th House of Adventure, encouraging you to expand your social horizons. Connecting with people from different backgrounds, in educational settings and while traveling, can be especially inspiring. Avoid overly judgmental individuals, though, since compassionate and open-minded folks have much more to offer you now.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The party starts on Wednesday when sassy Mercury and seductive Venus enter outgoing Sagittarius and your 5th House of Romance and Play. Having a good time without making any serious commitments is a great way to ride this joyful wave of enthusiasm. Being more soft and sensitive in your approach to others, though, is recommended on Friday and Saturday with the Moon’s presence in tender Pisces and your 8th House of Intimacy.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Being gentle is a priority this weekend with the Moon in supersensitive Pisces and your 7th House of Partners on Friday and Saturday. Sure, you may not like walking on eggshells, but toning down criticism and reducing analysis is your best strategy. Let feelings lead you now, even if they sometimes seem strange and unreliable. Listening with your heart and giving your head a rest makes more sense than you might think.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Conversations kick into a higher gear with verbose Mercury and vivacious Venus skipping into outgoing Sagittarius and your 3rd House of Communication on Wednesday. Opportunities to connect with others will come more easily when you’re willing to share your ideas more openly. In fact, what starts out as a debate about politics or religion could lead to an emotional bond between you if neither of you lose your cool. Maintaining a healthy sense of humor is a clever way to catch the eye of someone special.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The imaginative Pisces Moon lights up your 5th House of Romance on Friday and Saturday. This is a wonderful opportunity to set real world issues aside and bring a little fantasy to your life. Being creative in the pursuit of love prompts your current partner to swoon or, if you’re single, makes you more captivating to someone new. Don’t let the reality of the past limit the dreams you can make come true right now.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your personal life could get a major boost with romantic Venus dancing into your fun-loving sign on Wednesday. Focusing more attention on your appearance amps up the charm that’s already working in your favor. A key to being more attractive to others is to amuse yourself first. When joy radiates from your eyes and laughter comes naturally, others will want to join the party. Yet learning to be sensitive to people’s needs is the last piece to turning you into the complete package.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Conversing with a soft voice and moving in a gentle manner can make you more desirable this weekend. The whimsical Pisces Moon occupies your 3rd House of Communication on Friday and Saturday, which can bring you unexpected moments of delight if you make yourself available to them. Drop your skepticism, because opening up the doors to your mind and your heart allows real love to wander in.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your commitment to causes can be a real boon to your personal life this week. Flirty Venus and friendly Mercury enter outgoing Sagittarius and your 11th House of Groups on Wednesday, mixing idealism with social opportunities. Connecting with someone who shares your beliefs provides a common interest that can fuel a wonderful relationship. Meeting a new companion while socializing in a group is likely now, so hanging out with your friends this weekend improves your chances at finding love.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Moon in your sweet and sensitive sign on Friday and Saturday can sprinkle a little magic dust on your relationships. Escaping from routine activities and dressing more imaginatively sets the stage for romance. What may start out feeling like a fantasy can turn into something real, so don’t turn away from people and situations that inspire you. Yes, the magical moment may pass, but others will follow if you have faith and keep having fun.

Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for October 21 – 23

by Jeff Jawer

Playful but Practical

October 21 – 23

Hearts open and heads swell with the Moon in self-important Leo on Friday. Confidence is likely to rise as we’re empowered by a belief in ourselves that encourages risk-taking in relationships. Dramatic gestures are par for Leo’s course, but even more so now because of the Sun’s harmonious alignment with mystical Neptune. This event casts a gauzy aura of mystery and magic over Friday night, which can be very entertaining but hardly representative of lasting reality. Attractions arise easily in this misty atmosphere where reason and common sense may be hard to find. But turning an initial interest into a lasting flame of love will require more than one romantic evening.

Saturday brings a more scrutinizing perspective with a lunar transit into pragmatic Virgo. This analytical Earth sign isn’t into vague promises, laziness and sloppy behavior. Romance and productivity go together in practical Virgo, making this a perfect time to tackle tasks with a willing partner. Developing skills is another positive way to make use of this lunar transit, so taking a class or seminar can be a good way to meet someone or infuse new interest in an ongoing relationship. Virgo’s critical eye, though, tends to spot the tiniest flaws but, obviously, obsessing about them is to be avoided.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of October 17th

Social activities are exciting and imaginative on Friday with the expressive Leo Moon heading toward an opposition with otherworldly Neptune. This is ideal for a romantic fantasy that can be a delightful escape from the ordinary. Reality sets in on Saturday morning with a lunar shift into practical Virgo which may also create wonderful opportunities to mix work and play.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Thursday and Friday could be rocking romantically with the dramatic Leo Moon hanging out in your 5th House of Love and Play. It is possible to let your imagination get the best of you, creating expectations that can be hard to fulfill. The rest of the weekend looks to be a bit more grounded, but there is a chance that you could enjoy desirable companionship while you are working out or doing chores.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Carefully planning your social calendar could pay off in delightful ways this weekend. The Moon enters well-prepared Virgo and your 5th House of Romance on Saturday, which increases your chances for getting the admiration you deserve. However, it helps if you’re flexible because being too picky can put a damper on your potential for having a good time. Know what you want, but be willing to make adjustments to be with the one you love.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your clever communication skills should come in handy with the bold Leo Moon in your chatty 3rd house on Thursday and Friday. You might meet someone in the course of your daily routine and a casual conversation could heat up and lead to something more intimate. The Moon’s shift into pragmatic Virgo on Saturday indicates you will need to find a way to combine work with pleasure if you want to have fun.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Spending a little money on yourself can boost your morale with the Moon’s presence in your 2nd House of Self-Worth on Thursday and Friday. A bit more confidence will help you behave more boldly and come on stronger in pursuit of who and what you want. If you end up going too far, the rest of the weekend is ideal for serious discussions where you can work out the details that can sometimes make relationships so complicated.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Moon in your enthusiastic sign on Thursday and Friday adds passion to your already strong personality. Attracting attention should be even easier now as your natural leadership qualities are put to work for everyone to see. The rest of the weekend is more suitable for quiet moments where you get to connect in private and intimate ways. Showing a more serious and responsible side of yourself is sexier than you think.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The Moon enters Virgo on Saturday morning, bringing your emotions to the surface for the rest of the weekend. But instead of feeling overly vulnerable and exposed, this is a wonderful chance to connect with someone on a more personal level. Letting a person see your imperfections is not a turn off, but an invitation to get closer. You may find that being more generous with yourself encourages others to be more accepting of you.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Pals and coworkers can boost your personal life with the outgoing Leo Moon in your 11th House of Groups on Thursday and Friday. Meeting someone through an organization, as a member or volunteer, is also possible. You may want more privacy or just feel the need to escape from the crowd on Saturday and Sunday, as the Moon’s presence in your 12th House of Behind-the-Scenes Activities is a signal to relax and avoid the spotlight.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

The lively Leo Moon illuminates your 10th House of Responsibility on Thursday and Friday, which should gain you plenty of attention and admiration. Demonstrating your generosity and open-heartedness in a public situation could also pay off in your private life. Connecting with friends is a key to happiness on Saturday and Sunday with a lunar shift into your 11th House of Groups. Being a good team player can be a major plus to your romantic game.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Getting out of town, or at least skipping your regular routine, might be your key to happiness on Thursday and Friday. The Moon’s visit to your 9th House of Faraway Places kicks up the adventurous side of your personality. Being with people from different cultures is a great way to expand your social horizons. Duty calls on Saturday once the Moon slips into hardworking Virgo, but taking care of business can be a strong first step toward a heartfelt connection.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your willingness to open up your heart in a current relationship or when meeting someone new can have a powerfully positive effect on Thursday and Friday. The risk-taking Leo Moon is in your 8th House of Intimacy where it challenges you to take chances if you desire closer connections. If you feel like you’ve exposed too much, the lunar transit into logical Virgo on Saturday is ideal for cleaning up mistakes.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your relationship life gets a big boost when the extroverted Leo Moon lights up your 7th House of Partners on Thursday and Friday. Being more direct about your feelings is worth the risk of feeling a little embarrassed. When your heart is open, it invites others to get closer to you. A lunar shift into your 8th House of Intimacy on Saturday can reveal the work that’s needed to deepen a current union or to find a new one.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be too busy with work or worries to get your weekend activities started until Saturday when the Moon enters pragmatic Virgo and your 7th House of Relationships. An overly critical partner can be annoying, but he or she may bring up an issue worth addressing. Knowing what you want from others, though, is the key to upgrading your relationship life with the one you’re with or with someone new.
