stina8753 asked: I received the charm and that beautiful blue stone as well as the pendulum chart. Thank you so, so much. They're absolutely exquisite. Is the stone lapis lazuli? I'll send your charm out as soon as I can. It'll probably be sometime this weekend. :) This was a wonderful thing to come home to. Thank you again.
zorascreation asked: I JUST got my gift in the mail! <3 Sank yooou so much, Kelly! I can't wait to put them to good use. Before I do that, though, I'll be cleansing them. Ohio to New York is a long, energy-filled journey. ^.^ And I adore the crescent moon charm you placed in there as well, it's so lovely and cute. The color meaning sheet wasn't in it, but that's okay, I know most of them....

Yes I am Pagan, yes I am an ordained Reverend.
I have been meaning to do a short post on the Universal Life Church. No this isn’t some creepy post that I am sneaking in to convert you to anything, it is a universal faith church/organization whose slogan is “We are all children of the same universe.”
You can legally become an ordained Reverend, Minister, or various other titles you can choose from.
This is completely free...

New Moon this Christmas Eve
This is a reminder there is a new moon this Christmas Eve! New moons are great for banishing spells, cleansing, and anything to do with new starts and clean slates.

Vertical Herb Garden
Via Lifehacker:
Don’t have enough space in your place to grow some herbs? Turn a shoe organizer into a vertical garden and as long as you have even a balcony railing with sun exposure, you’ll have more than enough room.
Whether you’re living in an apartment and dreaming of a garden’s worth of fresh herbs for use in your kitchen, or you already have a garden and you...

Twelve Days of Yule
It’s a little late to start this year, but I thought I would post it anyway. I was looking through books on Yule and I came across this. It’s actually a children’s book, but I loved the idea so much I am going to do it next year.
Yule is one of the biggest Sabbats for most people, including me, so I try to jam pack it full of fun stuff for us to do.
Supplies needed:

ouiserboudreaux asked: Hello again! I was wondering what you knew about working with the elements as a focus on your magic. I've always been drawn to them, even when I was little, and I like to keep something that represents each of them on my altar at all times. Do you work with them at all? If so, what has been the best way of representing them all equally? I can't seem to find a good balance in my...

Coloring as a meditation technique.
Some of you might have heard of this before, and some of you might not have, but coloring is an effective relaxation and meditation technique for adults.
Yes, it really is as simple as grabbing your crayolas and downloading a free Mandela coloring page off the internet.
What is a Mandela? Well, according to dictionary.com a Mandela is:
A geometric figure representing the universe in Hindu and...

Taking a crystal healing course.
These next few months are going to be busy. On top of my regular studies working for my MA in History (halfway through my BA) I have decided that i am going to pursue a few things that have interested me spiritually.
1.) I am getting my Reiki First Degree Attunement in January.
2.) Taking the entire Crystal Healing course from Hibiscus Moon.
3.) Getting my basic herbalist certificate.
This...

Amber Alert issued for 2-year-old in East Cleveland
EAST CLEVELAND, Ohio - Police in East Cleveland have issued an Amber Alert for a toddler who was taken without permission during a parental visit.
The alert was issued Wednesday just before 5 p.m.
Police said 2-year-old Cameron Walker was taken without permission during a supervised visit with his mother,...
crystalclearforme asked: I just read your post on RUNES lol I was thinking of learning more about them. Overall is it just like dice ? What would you recommend?
mad-stardust asked: Are there any online pagan supply stores that you recommend. It's so hard finding one that you -think- "might" be good and then it isn't, etcetc.
I'm such a snob.
I was looking at these crystal wands, because they are gorgeous, and I see a “runes” section on the side menu bar. I get excited, thinking maybe some crystal rune sets, and I see that god damned blank “Odin’s Rune”.
THERE IS NO BLANK RUNE. It was put in a book and rune set in the 70’s published by Ralph Blum.
The original reason why was because the sets he...
crystalclearforme asked: Is hosting giveaways on Tumblr harder than a regular blog? Seems like it can be taken advantage of.
Daily Pagan News: Dog walker stumbles across... →
pagannews:
A team of historians believe they have unearthed evidence of a 4,000-year-old Stone Age camp - thanks to a dog walker.
Roger Hall was walking his pet at Cannock Wood in Staffordshire, when he discovered a handful of strange-shaped rocks.
Experts later identified the rocks as flint ‘flakes’, which are the off-cuts from tools crafted by Stone Age Man 4,000 years ago.
If the discovery...
stina8753 asked: For the person with the question about tarot: I think it says a lot that those are the cards you're drawn to. Think about what those cards represent. Fool: beginning a journey, willingness to take risks. Magician: insight and awareness of unexplored possibilities. Strength: courage, self-discipline, overcoming challenges. The Devil: confrontation with the shadows to become natural in your own...
If everyone could light a candle or just send some...
To aermaeve it would be helpful. She lost her grandmother last night. :(
aermaeve asked: I don't have much, but my grandma passed away last night, and I would really appreciate some way to bring both her and myself some comfort. I feel a little regretful about not being able to see her for the holidays and a few other things, so if you have a suggestion about what to do I'd be very grateful.
nightkind asked: Do you have a spell or chant for someone that is having one of those 'bad days' where they should have just stayed in bed?
stirringthecauldronoffabulous asked: So, I have another question. When it comes to the tarot (no matter the deck) I am drawn to a few cards instinctively. If I don't like the cards, I won't use the deck. The cards are: The Fool, The Magician. Strength, The Devil, and Death. Do you think the cards one is drawn to says something about the person? If so, no offense will be taken, what would you make of a person drawn to those...

waterandapagan asked: Hi. I just wanted to say that I love your blog. I may not agree with everything you post, but as you've said paganism is so diverse who am I to judge you for what we differ on? But you encourage the skepticism necessary for us pagans to practice to keep from funding these "high councils" or "raven-what's-er-face". Keep being awesome. I was wondering if you have...

realisticplayground-deactivated asked: Help x.x I lost my wallet and I think it's somewhere in my house or somewhere I can get to easily from my house. Any spell or chant I can do with little, common, or no supplies?

The High Pagan Council, and why the entire... →
There are several reasons I am even mentioning this shitastic organization, and I will name them now:
1.) I love my followers too much for them to get wrapped up in these message board teachings of Silver Ravenwolf’s rejects. They are every bad pagan stereotype wrapped up into one.
2.) NO ONE APPOINTED THESE FUCKS “HIGH COUNCIL” BUT, YOU GUESSED IT, THEMSELVES.
3.) Paganism is...

Crystal Grids: How and Why They Work by Hibiscus...
I just bought this, and I will be sharing my thoughts on it after I’m done. Hibiscus Moon (known to me by phanie12 on youtube) has been my go to woman on crystals for the past few years, and her Crystal Academy is something I plan on enrolling in after I finish my Reiki Attunement in January.
I am sure the content will be amazing, but considering she has her Crystal Academy, I am...
