Readers, please enjoy this guest blog post by Tess Whitehurst, author of a number of books, including Magical Housekeeping, You Are Magical, and the new Unicorn Magic.
Both crystals and unicorns are of the earth, and both also transcend the earthly plane to align us with the Otherworld, the realm of Faerie, and the eternal consciousness of Spirit. But some crystals are particularly aligned with unicorn energy, making them uniquely relevant to those of us drawn to the magic and wonder of the unicorn realm.
Here are 7 gemstones that will help you attune to the purifying, healing, and courage-inspiring realm of the unicorns.
 |
Amethyst is a purple-colored quartz with a soothing and spiritual vibration. It’s calming and stress-relieving and supports a deep and restful night’s sleep. Amethyst also helps heal addictions and addictive behaviors. Like unicorns, amethyst is aligned with the crown chakra, which opens up our connection the the realm of dreams and the Divine. |
 |
Apophyllite is a starlight-colored, bright, clear-white stone that often appears as a tiny little luminous pyramid. When you meditate with it, it can help you enter into other worlds and dimensions, including the fairy, unicorn, astral, and angelic realms. |
 |
Aquamarine is reminiscent of pale blue tropical oceans and pristine alpine streams. It purifies mind, body, and spirit, and helps relieve any sense of uncleanliness or toxicity. This mirrors the unicorn’s fabled ability to instantly and completely transform any poison or noxious pond into sparkling, clear, drinkable water. |
 |
Larimar is an opaque, vibrantly aqua-toned stone that looks like the brightest blue sky after its been purified by a heavy rain or strong wind. Simply glimpsing a larimar can infuse you with deep and abiding joy. Quite like a unicorn sighting, larimar helps bring back our joy when it seems to be lost. It also reminds us to prioritize joy every day, and to spread it to everyone we meet. |
 |
Lepidolite is a sparkly, lavender-hued stone that is perhaps the answer to the question, if a unicorn were a crystal, what would it be? Like unicorns, lepidolite reminds us to love freely, purely, and deeply. It also attunes us to the inner knowing that we are lovable, adorable, and deserving of every wonderful thing. Carrying or wearing it helps us draw true love and lasting friendship. |
 |
Peridot is a pale, grass-green crystal. It’s as serene and comforting as a late summer day. Unicorns are perfectly harmonized with the magic and wisdom of herbs, flowers, trees, and the seasons, and peridot helps us harmonize with these things in a similar way. It also helps strengthen physical and emotional health, healthy habits, and feelings of grounding, inspiration, and interconnection. |
 |
Spirit quartz, also known as drusy, is a quartz covered with lots of smaller crystal points, resulting in a breathtaking, sparkling effect. It appears in clear, amethyst, aqua aura, and angel aura varieties, and all can help foster a harmonious sense of community and interconnection. Additionally, just like unicorns, spirit quartz boosts energy, creativity, inspiration, wonder, vitality, and joy. |
To work with one of these crystals in order to gain greater access to the wisdom and healing power of unicorns, first cleanse it in sunlight and/or running water. Then hold it in your right hand and set the intention to align with unicorn consciousness and to open up to the magic of the realm. Next, carry it, wear it, sleep with it under your pillow, or place it on your altar. You can even create an altar specifically for the purpose, by placing an attractive image of a unicorn as a focal point, along with any other altar items you may like to include such as candles, flowers, or offerings (hint: unicorns like cinnamon sticks, apples, and sweet-smelling flowers).
Did you work with any of these crystals to attune your energy to the realm of the unicorns? Or do you plan to? Please share your thoughts and experiences in the comments below.

Because frequent use of anti-inflammatory drugs, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and other pain medications is now linked with a growing number of health concerns, many people are interested in using natural painkillers as alternatives. One option, called white willow bark — which has been utilized in folklore and natural medicines for centuries — shows promise for treating pain naturally with little risk for side effects.
According to a 2015 article published in the journal Pythotherspy Research, “Willow bark extract has been used for thousands of years as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic.”
In other words, white willow bark benefits include lowering inflammatory responses that contribute to chronic diseases, fighting pain and reducing fevers.
Whether in extract or tea form, willow bark can provide relief to those suffering from back pain, recurring headaches, muscle pains, menstrual cramps, arthritis symptoms and more.
Each color dye will go into its own narrow container, such as bud vases or test tubes. Place sections of each stem into the different containers. Be gentle when bending the stem sections apart as you place them into separate containers. Try not to leave them exposed to air and drying out for more than a few minutes.
You could also use plastic bags filled with dye and attach one to each stem section with rubber bands. That way you can stand roses up in a single larger container. That will minimize the bending of the cut stem sections.
Leave each stem section in the dye mixture for several days.
Place the roses out of direct sunlight while they are absorbing the dye. The cut flowers are already under stress, and extreme heat or light will weaken them further.
Now be patient. You may notice the petals changing color within a couple of hours, but leaving them in the dye for up to a week will result in the most dramatic colors. Make sure the roses are not left sitting in dry containers once the water/dye solution is all absorbed.
Once the desired effect is obtained, you can cut off the split section of the stems and place your roses in a vase of fresh, room-temperature water and enjoy.
The “rainbow rose” was developed by Peter van de Werken, the owner of a Dutch flower company. While special roses are used, the plants are not bred to produce rich colors. Actually, the rose bush would ordinarily produce white roses, but the stems of the flowers are injected over time with dyes so that petals form in bright single colors. If the flower isn’t treated as it is growing, the blooms are white, not rainbow. While the rainbow is a special version of the technique, other color patterns are also possible.
It’s not a science trick you can achieve quite so well with your home rose bush, at least not without a lot of experimentation and expense, because most pigment molecules are either too large to migrate into the petals or else too toxic for the rose to flower. Special proprietary organic dyes said to be made from plant extracts are used to color the roses.
While you can’t duplicate the exact effect, you can get a lighter version of a rainbow using a white rose and food coloring. The rainbow effect is much easier to achieve with white or light-colored flowers that aren’t as woody as a rose. Good examples to try at home include carnations and daisies. If it has to be a rose, you can do the same project, but expect it to take longer.

This is such a marvellous and upbeat week, when I saw this coming, I booked a little getaway. After all, timing is everything; and when the good times roll – you’ve got to rock! (My first and last impression of a daytime DJ). Everyone will want to seek out adventure this week. They’ll be eager to try new things. This is because we’re full of positive energy! Confidence is strong. Please note that Thursday is a particularly lovely day for romance. What is my little getaway going to be? Well, as someone who thinks outdoors is where the car is – I assure you I’m not a “back to the land” person. I’m all about “back to the hotel.” (If my kinda first date ever suggested a walk – there will be carpet.)
This super positive week begins with Mercury lined up with Jupiter in your sign. Not too shabby! Mercury is all about communicating, thinking and learning, plus daily activities and road trips. When it lines up with Jupiter, it enhances your appreciation of things. It makes you see the most comprehensive view possible. You will be more tolerant of the viewpoints of others. This is an excellent week for business and commercial activity, in part because you’re confident. However, you will do something impulsively, like shopping. (Check Moon Alert on my daily.) Money, gifts and goodies might unexpectedly come to you. (Well, guess whose birthday it is?) Big changes might take place on the home front. Enjoy!
This is a feel-good week! It begins with a vibe of quiet enthusiasm and confidence for you. You’ll be eager to communicate your ideas to others, which means if you’re in sales, marketing, teaching and acting, you’ll be persuasive! Meanwhile, Venus is in your sign lined up with unpredictable Uranus, which will create unexpected events, new experiences and excitement in your world! You might encounter a new relationship with someone different from you. This could also mean a sudden financial gain. (We can only hope.) Expect to amuse yourself in stimulating and different ways because you’re open to trying new and unusual things. (I’ll never tell.)
You hate to be bored and you love excitement. This week will not disappoint because you’re popular! Expect increased interactions with groups and friends, especially younger people. Discussions with others might encourage you to rethink future goals. Admittedly, you might be tempted to go overboard financially this week; do be aware of this. This means be cautious and think things through a second time if you’re doing financial negotiations. Likewise, if you’re spending money, think twice before you part with your cash. A secret flirtation or love affair might take your breath away. The main thing to know is that this week schmoozing with others will please you and also benefit you. You can’t lose!
It’s important to know when to act and when not to. Likewise, it’s important to know when you have a winning hand. This week, you’re a winner because you have the energy of fiery Mars in your sign making you confident, proactive and up for anything. Meanwhile, the Sun, Mercury and lucky Jupiter are at the top of your chart making you look wonderful in the eyes of others, especially bosses and VIPs. People admire your big ideas! You impress people from other cultures or different countries. The important thing to know is that you look confident. (Confidence is sexy.) You have the ability to see the big picture, to see trends and patterns and amaze others with your insights. Don’t waste this – use it!
You need a change of scenery this week. This is why you’ll enjoy seeing new places and meeting new faces. You will be fired up by new ideas and love to learn new philosophies and belief systems. Fair Venus is at the top of your chart, which creates favourable circumstances for business and attracting people to help you. Someone will ask your advice about how to make something look better perhaps design, layout work, office redecorating or PR ideas. Because you look so attractive to others right now, a romance with a boss or someone in a position of authority might begin. Thursday is a romantic day and the weekend promises fun times. The Moon enters your sign Thursday afternoon to stay until Sunday morning. Yeehaw!
Every aspect of travel and exploration will appeal to you this week. For some, romance with a person from another culture or a different country might blossom. This person feels “different”. Meanwhile, business and finance favour you this week. It’s an excellent time to ask for a loan or mortgage. Discussions about shared property and inheritances will be in your favour. Don’t be afraid to show largess and be generous because you can afford to do so. (You might want to help a friend or a group or a charitable organization.) Meanwhile, this week is full of passionate feelings and secret romance. Definitely some potential juicy diary entries – but who has time to write?
This is a great week to schmooze and enjoy the company of others, even though you will need more sleep. Relations with partners and close friends will be upbeat and friendly; and intimate relations will be passionate and affectionate. Meanwhile, fiery Mars is at the top of your chart arousing your ambition. Very likely, others will notice you and realize that you are doing something “big”. People will be aware of your ambitions and that you intend to reach out and make a difference. This is timely because you’re willing to work hard right now. This is a time of culmination for you, which helps you to expand beyond your usual sphere of influence. Work with others for your best success.
This is a happy week but it’s also a busy, industrious time, which is why you will accomplish so much. Please note: Your ambition and optimism are key. It’s an important truth that motivation is everything. Once you have the motivation, the rest unfolds. W.H. Murray said, “… The moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too…. raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance, which no one could have dreamt would come their way.” You can improve your work situation; and you can improve your health. Not through magic fairy dust; but through effort and commitment on your part.
You are a lucky person because lucky Jupiter is your ruler. (On the other hand, Gen. Custer was a double Sagittarius.) This is a marvellous week to party, socialize, enjoy vacations, attend sports events, delight in playful times with children plus, travel for pleasure and appreciate the arts in galleries and museums. Whatever you do this week will be a fun way to expand your world. Some might have disputes about inheritances and shared property. However, likely, these will be settled in your favour. Meanwhile something unusual or sudden might impact your work or your health. Many of you will be pleasantly surprised and delighted by something related to a pet. “Oh, how adorable! And you say it doesn’t shed?”
Home, family and your private life continue to be your primary focus. Because this is a lovely, friendly week for everyone, this means you will enjoy entertaining at home. Invite the gang over for good food and drink because warm camaraderie and friendly feelings are the flavour of the day. Family gatherings will be happy. In addition, social outings, playful activities with children and romance are beautifully favoured. Admittedly, your relationship with a partner or close friend might be tested. (A little jealousy?) Instead focus on enjoying good times with family and friends where you live. Likewise, real-estate exploration could be profitable. Ka-ching!
This week is busy, fast-paced, upbeat and joyful! Short trips and a demanding schedule are likely; nevertheless, because you’re in a happy mood, everything will flow beautifully. (I’m telling the truth.) Unexpected and spontaneous situations may take place at home. For example, you might suddenly entertain. Or you might impulsively buy something modern or high tech for your home. Or a family member might have surprising news? You might even make a sudden decision regarding real estate or a residential move. Could be anything. Your ability to think big and convince others of the wisdom of your ideas is what makes this a winning week for you. Plus, you’re busting your buns working hard!
This is the year for you to increase your earnings. It’s also another week, which is one step in that path to doing so. Many of you will get a raise or see a way to earn more money. Some will get a better paying job. Some will have excellent moneymaking ideas. Whatever the case, you can boost your wealth. (This will happen next year for later born Pisces.) Work-related travel will please many of you. Stay light on your feet so that you can impulsively take a short trip if you want. Opportunities to appreciate your daily surroundings and meet exciting people will abound. Much of this good fortune comes your way because of your power of positive thinking and motivation.
| Griselda goes to see a fortune teller, who tells her “Two men are madly in love with me!”
Grizelda asks “Who will be the lucky one?” The fortune teller answers “Morris will marry you, and Irving will be the lucky one.” Fortune teller One: “Lovely weather we’re having.” Fortune teller Two: “Yes, it reminds me of the summer of 2023.” Paul was ambling through a crowded street fair when he decided to stop and sit at a Palm Reader’s table. Said the mysterious old woman, “For fifteen dollars, I can read your love line and tell your romantic future.” Paul readily agreed and the reader took one look at his open palm and said, “I can see that you have no girlfriend.” “That’s true,” said Paul. “Oh my goodness, you are extremely lonely, aren’t you?” “Yes,” Paul shamefully admitted. “That’s amazing. Can you tell all of this from my love line?” “Love line? No, from the calluses.” Why did the witch give up fortune telling? There was no future in it. “Five dollars for one question!” said the woman to the fortune teller. “That’s very expensive, isn’t it?” “Next!” |
Finally, it’s Sunday, the official day of rest. Not only do Christians acknowledge this day, but I’m sure many Pagans appreciate this day, as well. Everyone needs rest and lot of people need a good day to worship their creator (whomever or whatever that may be), however they deem fit to do so. With the Sun being the central theme of many ancient rituals, Sunday just seems to fit, in name and theory. Not only is it a good day to worship, it seems good to do more relaxed spells, such as, sleep, dream and rebirth.
Try working this spell on a gloomy, rainy Sunday, or any day. It will lift your spirits, no matter what the weather.
Slip on your sunny outfit or wear your sun-themed jewelry, and then take a moment to imagine yourself either on a sun-drenched beach or in the middle of a bright meadow with the sun streaming down on you. Now picture that a little of the sun’s warmth is soaking into the bright colors or jewelry that you are wearing. Do you feel a bit warmer? While you are visualizing this for a moment or two, repeat the following spell three times:
Even though the skies may be cloudy and gray
I will wear the colors of the sun today
For the colors of yellow, gold, and orange, you see
Work their own sunny magick; so mote it be!
Close the spell by saying:
For the good of all, with harm to none
By color and light, this spell is done!
Then take a deep breath, blow it out, and go dazzle ’em today!

Judgment embodies those forces which require us to be accountable for our actions. With Judgment truths are revealed, mysteries are unraveled and responsibility is assigned. Judgment unveils outcomes and marks the ends of things. While it is a time to properly place guilt, it is also a time for atonement and forgiveness. Ultimately the process of Judgment should lead to freedom from errors made in the past and a fresh start with a clean slate. To that end Judgment actually promises the start of a new journey on which we can apply what we have learned from our past.
Do some magic of your own today, like penetrating facades and gaining insights into dubious stories that lack credibility. Hold onto your heartstrings until you know you haven’t met a fickle flirt or a trickster. The Magician makes us see what we want to see regardless of the reality of a situation. He draws us in because we love secrets and mysteries, but who wants to live with them day after day and year after year?
When you stand up for other’s rights you can stir deeply-seated past life memories in yourself. The origin of these feelings might come from having a past life experience of your own family’s struggle. At this time the civil rights leader inside you has come to the forefront. This spirit is more afraid of not standing up for what he or she believes in then fearful of what retribution one could face. This incarnation comes with an inner strength that is founded in compassion.

People born on March 26 are independent as they prefer to do things in their own rhythm but at the same time can be quite warm hearted and acceptant with those around. They prefer change in order to progress and they are industrious in their planning and organization, regardless of the situation. They stay away from situations where they have to wait for something to happen and most of them are the life and soul of every party they attend.
Positive traits: These are very industrious and enthusiastic persons with a sharp temper. They seem to never get tired or need any sleep. Aries people are usually resourceful as they seem to get out of any situation easily. They are also very loyal once someone wins their affection and respect. Those born under this sign possess a great combination, they are both creative and analytical. And if this rare mix doesn’t lead to success and great achievements, what does?
Negative traits: These natives are impatient and stubborn and they should learn to be more calculated if they don’t want to risk damaging their relationships and entering into all kinds of misunderstandings. They are self absorbed and often undiplomatic and they are prone to sadness and even depression because they often prefer to keep things bottled up as they reckon revealing their feelings might destroy that powerful image they want to preserve in front of others.
Lovers born on March 26 are sentimental and impulsive and they would do anything for their loved ones once they create a passionate connection. They are attracted to unpredictable and eccentric persons. For pretentious Aries love does not come easy, but as they fall in love they become the walking image of fools in love. You can conquer the heart of Aries if you are just as full of flame and free spirited like them. These people don’t mind being single as they keep focusing on keeping their lives busy with their goals.
Intuitive and charming it is very difficult for someone to win their heart if they don’t show the slightest interest. They don’t settle for less than what they consider it’s best for them. Otherwise they are aware of their attractiveness and this leads them to a tumultuous love life, falling in and out of love. They are friendly but reserved and their attitude won’t bring many people close to them. They are persistent and courageous in a practical way so they will be a great part of their family team once they decide to settle for someone. They are most compatible with those born on 1st, 4th, 8th, 10th, 13th, 17th, 19th, 22th, 26th, 28th and 31st.
March 26 Zodiac people are most attached to the other two fire signs: Leo and Sagittarius as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Aries is in a constant search for someone to open their hearts in front of. Someone to whom they can show their emotional side and not be afraid to get disappointed and the best to offer them this is the compassionate Libra. The least compatible with people born on March 26 are those born under the Pisces Zodiac sign. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Aries, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.
Red is the color defined for March 26 and in general for Aries natives.
Red is a hue that indicates passion and energy. It is one of the warmest colors. This zodiac color should be used for objects that are sitting in places where these natives spend most of their time.
Red draws everyone’s attention and suggests confidence and action. This is the most suitable color as it is also the symbol for Mars, the ruling planet of the Aries zodiac sign. On the other hand red is temper and anger so when provoked they tend to get aggressive. This color emanates energy and complete action so it should be used cautiously.
Other colors for Aries people are scarlet and carmine.
Diamond is a precious material that denotes power and elegance. The zodiac birthstone could be used in accessories and jewelry items.
It is said to help with the focus on discovering the long term goals of an individual. The Diamond used to be named the “teardrops of the gods” in ancient Greek.
Another birthstone considered beneficial for Aries natives is Emerald. It symbolizes harmony and the power of regeneration.
Honeysuckle suggests delicacy and sweetness. This zodiac flower should be used in decorative items in the places these natives spend time.
This flower also reveals an individual ready to go through any hassle in order to accomplish his plan. This flower can be found during spring time but also in the summer.
Other plants that suit Aries natives are Geranium and Ginger.
Iron is a metal that suggests strength and action. This zodiac metal is advised to be used in pendants and earrings.
This strong metal suggests the force of fiery Aries who is easily stimulated just like Iron can be magnetized. Left in moist air, Iron rusts which suggests that it should be handled with care exactly like the Aries native.
Another metal considered beneficial for Aries natives is Silver.
There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions today. The Moon is in Gemini.
Today you feel a bit restless, which is why you want to meet new faces, see new places and explore new ideas. Can you take a short trip? Explore your neighborhood. You might have to deal with changing dynamics at home, due to visiting guests, renovations or home improvements.
Your focus is on finances and possessions today. It’s also a good day to buy wardrobe treasures for yourself, especially because in the next six weeks, you will be more direct in all your communications, which is why others will sit up and listen to you.
Today the Moon is in your sign, which will heighten your emotions. However, it will also slightly improve your good luck. (Ask the universe for a favour!) You will start to work hard for your money now because you have plans to spend it!
Fiery Mars is now in your sign for six weeks, which will give you energy and vigour. (Happens once every two years.) Because you want to show the world what you can do, you will project yourself with more force! This means you will likely get the upper hand.
This is a good day for a heart-to-heart talk with a friend, probably a female acquaintance. Relations with authority figures are excellent because Venus is at the top of your chart. Meanwhile, in the next few weeks, be aware. If you think something fishy is going on – it is.
You will start to be more aggressive, even competitive, with friends and groups you deal with. Meanwhile today, people notice you more than usual. In fact, they seem to know personal details about your private life. Personally, you want to travel and explore!
Your ambition will be aroused in the next six weeks, which means you are determined to accomplish as much as possible. Meanwhile, today, you want to do something different! You want to break free of your daily routine because you want adventure and a chance to experience something new. Yes!
Your interest in creative, intellectual work will increase in the next few weeks. You might also find you have to defend your beliefs. Basically, you are concentrating more energy on doing something to expand your mind. Some of you might be more involved with the law courts.
Good news! During the last several months, issues with partners and close friends have been a bit testy. You might have felt irritated with those who are close to you. You’ll be happy to hear this irritation will diminish – starting today. That’s why you can expect your relationships to improve.
Home and family are your focus now, especially family conversations and repairs. This is also a playful time. Nevertheless, today you have a strong desire to get better organized. (This is a smart thing for you to do because change is coming on the wind.)
Your busy pace continues! You also have a strong desire to redecorate or make where you live more attractive. This is a playful, fun-loving day. Enjoy socializing with others. You might like to invite someone home to see the changes you’ve made recently.
Money and possessions continue to be your primary focus. Fortunately, relations with others are smooth now because you are charming and diplomatic. In part, this is because you appreciate your surroundings and you feel content and optimistic. Today you’re happy to cocoon at home.
Singer Steven Tyler (1948) shares your birthday today. You appear to be easy-going and casual; however, you are actually intense and determined. You are honest, courageous and love to explore new situations. This year is the last year of a nine-year cycle for you, which means it’s time to let go of what is no longer relevant in your life. Lighten up!
You can use this link to go forward or backward in time for Moon phase information. If you are curious, you can even find out what phase the Moon was in when you or anyone else was born.
The Moon’s current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Crescent Phase. Best seen in the west after the sun dips below the horizon at sunset. This is the first Phase after the New Moon and is a great time to see the features of the moon’s surface. The moon is close to the sun in the sky and mostly dark except for the right edge of the moon which becomes brighter as the days get closer to the next phase which is a First Quarter with a 50% illumination.
Visit the March 2023 Moon Phases Calendar to see all the daily moon phase for this month.
The Waxing Crescent on March 26 has an illumination of 25%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On March 26 the Moon is 4.97 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases.
There are 8 lunar phases the Moon goes through in its 29.53 days lunar cycle. The 4 major Moon phases are Full Moon, New Moon, First Quarter and Last Quarter. Between these major phases, there are 4 minor ones: the Waxing Crescent, Waxing Gibbous, Waning Gibbous and Waning Crescent. For more info on the Moon Cycle and on each phase check out Wikipedia Lunar Phase page.

Items needed for this spell:
Your body
Put on your exercise apparel and start your exercise routine. Do whatever warm-ups you need to do, before starting this spell. Once you are warmed-up, Hold up your hands up in the air and move your arms in gesture, as you say this chant eight times:
“I’m a tree, I’m a tree.
Today is two, for Tuesday.
Tomorrow is three.
Tonight the moon will rise.
Everyone tells me it’s good for
the body,
And that I need to exercise.”
Then, put your hands on your waste. Bend to your left side, eight times, while saying this chant:
“I’m a tree, I’m a tree.
I sway and bend.
One, two, three.
Limbering up for wind.”
Repeat this chant for the right side:
“I’m a tree, I’m a tree.
I sway and bend.
One, two, three.
Limbering up for wind.”
Now, bend over and touch your toes for about eight times. Each time you bend over, say this chant:
“I’m a tree, I’m a tree.
Today is two, for Tuesday.
Tomorrow is three.
Tonight the moon will rise.
I know it’s good for my body,
And that I need to exercise.”
Then, stand on one leg for about a fifteen seconds and alternate between both legs, for a total of about 4 minutes, while doing this, say this chant:
“I’m a tree, I’m a tree.
Today is two, for Tuesday.
Tomorrow is three.
Tonight the moon will rise.
If I want to stay healthy,
I need to exercise.”
Finally, run in place for about 10 minutes and say this chant:
“Step, step, step, step.
One after another
And more to go.
I’m running and talking,
Every day, a little further.
Taking breaths and walking.
Every inch grows.
Step, step, step, step.
Keep going.
Water in my cup.
Or bottled not to spill.
Always a test of the mind,
And a test of the will.
Might run tired,
But I never give up.”
Saying these chants while exercising, will, hopefully, ensure your desire to repeat these routines, week after week, and make the time go by quicker.
A Witch’s Week of Spells and Activities
Helga C. Loueen
Vidar (Old Norse Víðarr), his name might mean “Wide Ruler” he is the son of the all-father Odin and the giantess Gríðr. Yes, you read that correctly, some of the Æsir have previously been together with the Jotuns, also known as giants. Some of the giants were so beautiful that even the Gods could not resist their beauty.
Vidar is the second strongest of the Æsir only Thor is stronger than him, Vidar might have inherited some of his strength from the giant side of the family. Vidar lives in Asgard in a great hall called Vidi, it’s a peaceful home and the inside looks like a garden.
Vidar is known for being very silent he loves being at peace with nature. Vidar sometimes sits for hours in his garden working on a special shoe.
This special shoe is the strongest of all the shoes and is being made from all bits and pieces of leather that shoemakers throw in the trash when making new shoes in Midgard. Vidar will use this special shoe to revenge his father’s death Odin at Ragnarok (Ragnarök).
This is when Vidar will fight the fearsome Fenris wolf, by placing one foot on Fenris’s lower jaw and pressing his hands on the upper jaw until Fenris’s mouth will be pulled apart. Ragnarok is the doom of the Gods and the end of the world. But from death, there also comes life, and Vidar is one of the few Gods who will survive Ragnarok and rebuilt the new world
—————————————
Vidar1Hail to the Silent God
Who sees much and speaks little,
Who waits patiently for the moment
Of injustice that needs to be equalized.
Hail to the God called upon
When cruelty has gone so far
That there is no making things right,
Hail to the God of cold vengeance
Who does what is necessary
To even up the debt,
To bring Fate’s balance true
Quicker than entropy would allow.
Hail to the God of the Thick-Soled Shoe
Whose steps are silent
So that he might approach from behind.
Hail to you, son of Grid the Wise
And Odin the Powerful,
May I know to call upon you
Only as a last resort.
— Seawalker, Author

It is said that Odin had an affair with the warrior goddess Grid, and that she bore him a son named Vidarr, who took after his father and became one of the honored Aesir Gods. He is one of the two Gods of Vengeance – the other being his half-brother Váli, as it seems that in ancient Norse culture one deity of vengeance was not enough.
Vidarr’s name may originally have meant “widely ruling”. He is known as “the Silent God”, meaning that he does not flaunt his vengeance; Vidarr is said to speak little, but be a fierce warrior when the moment is needed. It is also said that he is almost as strong as Thor, and that the Gods depend upon him in times of trouble. Some scholars theorize that his “silent God” appellation may have something to do with ancient rituals of vengeance; it may be that individuals who were preparing for a vengeance battle refrained from speaking as part of a ritual purification.
He is also known as the God of the Thick Shoe, as he is constantly in the process of building up the soles of his shoes. This is done so that if Ragnarok comes and he faces Fenrir, he will be able to put his foot on Fenrir’s enormous jaws and strike his heart through his throat. Traditionally, shoemakers (and before that, people who made their own shoes) were encouraged to dedicate the little scraps of leather they trimmed off of their new shoe soles to Vidarr, who would collect them and add them slowly to his own soles.
In the saga Grímnismál, Odin describes the halls of many Gods, including that of his son Vidarr:
Brushwood grows and high grass
widely in Vidar’s land
and there the son proclaims on his horse’s back
that he’s keen to avenge his father.
This latter point is a harbinger of the prophecy that if Ragnarok comes, Fenrir will be loosed and will slay Odin, but he will be slain in turn by Vidarr. Both brothers are said to survive Ragnarok and help to rebuild a new world after Surt’s fires have burnt down. To make an offering to Vidarr, give him a weapon – throw it into icy water, or a bog, or bury it in ice.

Graceful Guidance
by Madisyn Taylor
At some point in our lives, we are likely to find ourselves asking for help, perhaps from no one in particular, and without knowing where help could possibly come from. We may have raised our eyes skyward or whispered our need under our breath only to find that somehow we were heard, and the help we needed arrived. It might have come in the form of a person who appeared at the right time, or perhaps it came in the form of luck, chance, or divine intervention. However assistance appears, these are times when we can be sure that there are angels watching over us.
We may find ourselves asking for their help with simple things—like finding a parking spot or to watch over loved ones—but then we forgot to call on them when we found ourselves alone or in pain. We don’t need to be aware of them to receive their assistance, but there is comfort in the knowledge that they are there for us when we need them. And when we remain open to their presence, we can call on them whenever we need them to connect and be nurtured by their ethereal and heavenly energy.
As symbols of grace and gentle encouragement, they can offer us comfort as they enfold us in their wings or lift our spirit as they take flight. We may be warmed by their glow, guided by their gentle nudges or inspired by their whispers in our ears. We may hear the name of our angel and feel a personal connection, but it isn’t necessary. All they need is to be heard, to see us benefit from their guidance and perhaps to hear a word of thanks sent their way every now and then. Whether they appear in the guise of a helpful stranger, or as a thought that suddenly occurs to us, angels are our loving guides from the spiritual realm, who with a brush of their angelic wings help us to make the most of our human experience by balancing it with the spiritual awareness that all things are possible and that we are not alone.
