We are all familiar with Mercury Retrograde. We’ve all blamed it for some reason whether that be lost emails, communication errors, road blocks or any other issues regarding communication, technology or travel. It's time to use all the cleansing practices in your tool box. Understanding the symptoms of carrying unwanted energy is helpful to your magical practice. Half Of Our Lives Is Spent During Mercury Retrograde  3-4 times a year we are affected by this planetary event. It lasts for 2 months each which totals 6-8 months of the year. That means half of our lives is spent under the influence of Mercury Retrograde.  Even though mercury retrograde has a bad rep with messing with our day to day lives it is a powerful opportunity to shift your mindset and turn your blocks into growth and evolution.  The first step is to being aware of what I like to call areas for elevation. These are the moments when you feel emotionally elevated. When your heart rate speeds up, you become dis regulated, irritated and stressed. It can even lead you to feeling attacked, putting you in a defensive position where you are guarded and unable to acknowledge anything other than the turmoil inside of you.  If you can during these emotionally elevated moments, and I know this can be asking a lot, step away from the situation and begin the process of regulating your nervous system. Breathing is by far the best way to begin this process.  3 breathing techniques to regulate your mind, body and spirit.   Scream Into Your Pillow The first and often easiest is if you can go grab a pillow in a separate room and scream as loud and as hard as you can into it. Let out that gut wrenching primal scream we all have inside of us.  Whether it be the adrenalin that begins coursing through your body or the release of the pent up energy, I find that I begin to quickly feel a lot better after this practice.  Breath of Fire The breathing technique known as Breath of Fire involves passive, normal inhalations and powerful, rapid exhalations. This style of forced exhalation may help reduce stress, boost brain function, and improve respiratory health. It’s also said to strengthen the abdominal muscles and improve digestion. How to do breath of fire Start in a seated cross-legged position. Sit up tall. Place your hands on your knees, palms facing upward. You can also place a hand on your belly to feel it rise as you breathe. Inhale through your nose, feeling your belly expand as you do so. Without pausing, exhale forcefully through your nose while contracting your abdominal muscles. Keep your inhales and exhales equal in length. Repeat until you’re comfortable with the pattern. Continue the rhythm, inhaling passively and exhaling forcefully. Repeat several times to practice. Now, speed up the inhales and exhales. Your exhales should be powerful and loud. Repeat for 30 seconds. Over time, you can try doing Breath of Fire for longer. Square Breathing This is a breathing technique you can practice anywhere in any position. I’ve recently spent several hours using this technique during a tattoo session. It worked wonders to keep me calm and help me manage the pain.  How to do square breathing Begin by slowly exhaling all of your air out. Then, gently inhale through your nose to a slow count of 4. Hold at the top of the breath for a count of 4. Then gently exhale through your mouth for a count of 4. At the bottom of the breath, pause and hold for the count of 4. Repeat You might want to set an intention, or invite a neutral or positive image to focus on during your breathing practice. Your intention could be “relaxation,” or “healing” -- whatever you find engaging and authentic for you. While breathing I focus on how my body physically feels. The air moving in and out of my nose, filling mu lungs, the tightness in my chest and belly when I have a full breath of air and the sensation of pulling my stomach towards my spine when I’m exhaling.  This is a wonderful technique to use to ground yourself and bring yourself out of your mind and into your body.    Mercury Retrograde Offers Opportunities For Growth When I have moments to spare, often during my commute, in the shower or before bed I like to revisit my day and see if there is any moments that stand out. This is particularly important to do during mercury retrograde when our challenges around communication, technology and travel comes to the surface.  Think back to moments when you were particularly challenged. These are opportunities for growth and evolution. Reflect on what triggered you and why. Next time you encounter a similar event it may be easier to look at it with empathy and softness.  I have found myself in many cycles that did not serve me. Whether it be with money, with love, with my self worth or any other area of my life that left me feeling less than, mercury retrograde always brought that up, over and over again. If you find yourself always complaining about the same things, re-living the same cycle again and again, there’s a message there. It is time to look within and evolve. If you’ve been fearing mercury retrogrades we want to share 3 easy spells to bolster your communication, ground your anxiety and help you feel at ease with this planetary event.  3 Spells To Ease Through Mercury Retrograde Shower Cleansing Ritual Shower cleansing rituals are my favourite ways to add magic to my day. Everyone needs to clean themselves and adding a magical soap is the easiest way to turn any shower into a ritual.  While in the shower soap your body from head to toe without washing any of it off. While covered in soap feel all that does not serve be pulled out of your pores into the suds.  When you’re ready step into the running water and allow it to wash away the soap and all that old energy. Close your eyes and visualize dark mud (representing that unwanted energy) being showered off of you.  For our morning shower people we suggest using Evil Eye Soap or our Cedar and Sage Soap.  Use Evil Eye products to wash away any negativity, bad luck or ill will and hand it back to those who threw it in the first place. Cedar and Sage Soap offers the spiritual properties of cleansing, purification, inner balance and protection. This combination of cedar and sage creates a peaceful aura, cleanses away negativity, grounds and makes way for healing and peace. The perfect set up for working through all those mercury retrograde opportunities.  For those who prefer to shower before bed we suggest using our Clearance Conjure Soap or our Tranquility Soap.  Clearance soap is used to cleanse your body, mind & soul to clear out any negativity that may be attached to you. It's also helps with overcoming unseen obstacles, tough situations or problems that can stand in your way or cause you issues. In our Tranquility Soap lavender is used to clear and relax your mind from stress and anxiety before bed or anytime during your day. This is the perfect shower soap to offer deep reflection and soothe your way through growth and evolution.  Tea Spell for Communication This ritual is perfect for mornings or to sip on any time during the day. Drink it after your morning coffee or combine it with your morning tea.  We suggest using our Temperance Magical Tea. Temperance Tea is created with the qualities of balance, harmony, patience and good communication in mind.  The herbs and flowers in this beautiful and delicious tea, are both spiritually and physically healing. A natural blend to relieve pain, headaches and relax muscles. Spiritually this tea works to calm and balance your spirit, cleansing your mind and aura of the clutter and frustration. I like to hold my herbs in my hand and whisper my intention over top of them three times. Steeping the tea in the water provides an opportunity to warm your hands and infuse your tea further with your intention.  Sit with your tea, feel the warmth seep through your hands into your body. Take a sip and feel the magic enter your body as you swallow. Feel it permeate your body, mind and spirit. As you drink your tea visualize your intention coming true. How would it feel, look, taste, smell, what would it sound like? Use all your senses.  Follow our direction for a Tea Ceremony For Conscious Communication to give power to your words throughout Mercury Retrograde. Break the habit and empower yourself to think before you speak.  Candle Spell to Activate Your Stones When you use this spell you provide purpose to your stones. You will create a magical talisman that you can carry upon your person to aid you through your mercury retrograde challenges.  This spell requires 1 blue candle and the summoning and blessing by the Greek God Hermes.  Light the candle and hold it at your heart centre over the object saying: Hermes, draw near, and my plain prayer hear! Swift god, bring this to life.  It speaks of the traveler, the teacher, the communicator. In the name of Hermes and his allies, wise god, Render life to this. Spirit made flesh.  While encircling the object in a counterclockwise direction three times, recite: Cleanse this, bright god. Spirit made flesh.  Bring the candle back above the object at your heart. Circle it three times in a clockwise motion saying:  Protect this, sly god. Spirit made flesh.  Bring the candle back above the object at your heart and say: Awaken as companion on the journey, Helpmate and guide, Blessing us both. As I speak it, So it becomes, Hear me, Hail Hermes and his allies.

Embracing Balance and Beauty: The Magic of Libra Season As the leaves begin to turn and a crispness enters the air, we officially step into the enchanting realm of Libra season! From September 22nd to October 23rd, the celestial scales invite us to find harmony, appreciate beauty, and cultivate meaningful connections. If you're ready to embrace balance and sprinkle a little magic into your life, keep reading! Understanding Libra Astrology At its heart, Libra is an air sign, ruled by the planet Venus, the goddess of love, beauty, and pleasure. This combination makes Libras naturally diplomatic, charming, and aesthetically inclined. They are the great strategists of the zodiac, always striving for fairness and justice, and possess an innate ability to see all sides of a situation. Key Libra Traits: Balance & Harmony: The scales symbolize Libra's constant pursuit of equilibrium in all areas of life. Diplomacy & Fairness: Libras are natural peacemakers, excellent at mediation and avoiding conflict. Beauty & Aesthetics: With Venus as their ruler, Libras have a keen eye for beauty, art, fashion, and pleasant environments. Relationships & Partnership: Libras thrive in partnerships and seek companionship, often prioritizing the needs of others. Indecisiveness: The flip side of seeing all perspectives can be difficulty making decisions. During Libra season, we all get to tap into these energies. It's a time to focus on our relationships, beautify our surroundings, and strive for greater equilibrium within ourselves and our interactions. The Astrology of the Next Month While Libra season encourages balance, the astrological landscape during this period often presents opportunities for growth and refinement. New Moon in Libra (October 14th): This New Moon is a potent time for setting intentions around relationships, justice, and creating more balance in your life. It's an ideal moment to initiate new projects related to partnerships or personal well-being. Solar Eclipse in Libra (October 14th): Coinciding with the New Moon, this powerful eclipse amplifies the themes of change and new beginnings, especially in how we relate to others and our sense of self within partnerships. Expect fated encounters or significant shifts in relationships. Mercury Enters Scorpio (October 22nd): As Mercury shifts into the deep waters of Scorpio, our communication becomes more intense, investigative, and geared towards uncovering truths. This can be a great time for deep conversations and psychological insights. Sun Enters Scorpio (October 23rd): As the Sun moves into Scorpio, the energy shifts from airy, relational Libra to the more intense, transformative, and passionate realm of Scorpio. This marks the end of Libra season and the beginning of a period of introspection, regeneration, and embracing our shadow selves. Magical Practices for Libra Season This is a wonderful time to engage in practices that enhance beauty, harmony, and connection. Beauty Spells & Rituals: Focus on self-love and enhancing your personal charm. Rose Quartz Love Bath: Add rose quartz crystals, rose petals, and essential oils like rose or ylang-ylang to your bath, or add our Love & Attraction oil for an extra boost. Meditate on self-love and drawing in harmonious connections. Beauty Altar: Create a small altar with beautiful objects, fresh flowers, a mirror, and an image of Venus, Oshun, or a goddess of love. Spend time admiring it and focusing on the beauty within and around you. Relationship & Partnership Magic: Strengthen existing bonds and attract new, balanced connections. Partnership Blessing: If you're in a relationship, write down qualities you appreciate about your partner and specific desires for your shared future. Place it under a pink or green candle (colors of Venus) and light it with intention. Attraction Charm: Carry a rose quartz stone, herbs like roses & cinnamon in a mojo bag and anoint with Love oil. Carry it with you to enhance your attractiveness and draw in balanced relationships. Balance & Harmony Practices: Journaling for Equilibrium: Reflect on areas of your life where you feel out of balance. Journal about what steps you can take to restore equilibrium. Ritual of the Scales: Visualize the scales of justice. On one side, place anything that feels heavy or out of alignment. On the other, visualize what you want to bring into balance. Meditate on the scales finding perfect equilibrium. Home & Environment Enchantment: Feng Shui Refresh: Declutter and beautify your living space, especially your bedroom or areas where you entertain, to invite in more harmonious energy. Flower Magic: Bring fresh flowers into your home, particularly roses or other blossoms that resonate with beauty and love. As you place them, infuse them with intentions for peace and joy in your space. Embracing the Magic Libra season is a beautiful invitation to pause, breathe, and bring more grace and balance into our lives. Whether you're enhancing your relationships, beautifying your home, or simply taking time for self-care, embrace the harmonious energies of this magical time.

Mothers are magical, there’s no doubt about it. There’s probably nothing more magical in this world than growing a child from your own body and then raising that child into a person who will become the future of our world!  Now we also want to acknowledge that you do not have to give birth to be a mother either! Being a mother and family in general is so much more than blood, but it is something our souls form. Motherhood looks different for everyone and that’s what makes it so beautiful. No experience is the same and that’s why we look to our mothers for the wisdom, understanding and skill sets that will carry us throughout the rest of our lives! Mother’s Day is the day to bring that mindful acknowledgement to the forefront of our lives and to honour and thank them! We also understand that not everyone has a healthy relationship with their mother. There are many, many people out there who have been mistreated, shunned or hurt deeply by their mothers. We want to honour the sons and daughters of those mothers today as well and give them meditative and healing options for them to partake in on this day as well!  Honouring Gaia on Mother’s Day Gaia, Mother Earth, Mother Nature- however you wish to refer to her as, she is what we walk on everyday. She is a primordial goddess and the personification of the Earth in Greek Mythology. Gaia emerged from Chaos and is considered the supreme or mother goddess. All gods and goddesses are descended from her through her union with Uranus (Heaven) and Pontus (Sea). Indigenous peoples of North America have always honoured the beauty and chaos that is Mother Nature. She is the grass beneath our feet, the leaves rustling above us, the flowers blooming in the spring. Mother Nature is all around us and the most ancient and wise of our civilizations honour her before anything. Algonquian legend says that "beneath the clouds lives the Earth-Mother from whom is derived the Water of Life, who at her bosom feeds plants, animals and human" (Larousse 428). She is otherwise known as Nokomis, the Grandmother. Honouring both a sunny day and a rainy one just the same. The belief in the natural way of life, of oneness with each other and all living beings is often lost to us in a post-colonized and busy life of the 21st Century. All our computers and social media apps and reality shows often pull us from our true nature as human beings. If we take some time to connect with the outside, we are able to find a sense of peace and tranquility in the go go go of our lives. So for those with estranged mothers or those who want to take some time to honour the goddess of our Earth, we’ve come up with some activities you can do! Charging With Gaia: The Earth is a great form of transmuting negative energy into positive energy! You have probably been told a few times that a form of cleansing your crystals is actually to bury them and then dig them up again a couple hours or days later (usually in the consistency of a holy number like 3 days or 3 hours) and they will both be cleansed and charged! This comes from the idea of the natural cycle of wildlife. Think of the life cycle of any of the creatures even found in your own backyard! The squirrels and birds and chipmunks! They feed from the earth, gain life from the earth and one day when they die, their bodies will feed the earth back and bring forth new life. To some it can seem morbid to think about, but once again, that is the beautiful and chaotic balance Gaia brings us.  Like a life cycle, our energy turns and flows as well. We will always fluctuate our energy based on the different phases of our lives that we go through! It is unrealistic for anyone to constantly be “high vibrational.” Expecting anything else is refuting our own human nature and the lessons we are here to learn! So, let the Earth cleanse and recharge you! Connecting with nature is in turn, our human nature as well! We were made to feel connected to the Earth, to both feed from it and give back to it just as any other living being here! Connecting will calm us so we can be mindful of our thoughts, feelings and in turn behaviours. The Cognitive Triangle shows us how all of these impact and lean back on each other. Having a clear mind can help us with that!   Find a comforting place in nature, this can be anywhere as simple as your backyard and kick those shoes off! Let your bare feet touch the grass, the dirt, maybe an ant will run across your toes- and this may be uncomfortable to some at first but take a few minutes to really pay attention to your senses. Close your eyes and don’t just focus on the ground beneath you but also the air around you! The wind, maybe there’s a faint smell of spring flowers, birds singing or grasshoppers chirping. Let yourself live in the moment like this until you find yourself breathing steadily and comfortably before continuing.  We suggest building an outside altar, it doesn’t have to be anything fancy, it could just be on your backyard picnic table or even on top of a rock! Place some things on this altar that represent the Earth to you. If you are a crystal collector feel free to place some of your favourites on this! Some wonderful Earth element crystals we love are Moss Agate, Tree Agate or Rhyolite (also known as Rainforest Jasper)! But if not, any rock off the ground, flower or even a piece of bark can symbolize earth to you! The Earth is plentiful and bountiful, and it can be fun to represent this by placing a bunch of different natural findings on this altar as well! You can have fun with this and decorate it to the maximum or you can simply place one thing of importance instead! It’s up to you! This altar allows you a space to channel your energy and fully dive into the purpose of your meditation!  Light some incense, we love palo santo resin and amber resin but you can always choose your own favourite! Then light a candle, we suggest either lighting a pink, green or white candle and then beginning your favourite grounding method! A classic one and also one our favourites is the tree root method, because it is both grounding and recharging and using the Earth to do so! This meditation can be done anytime whenever you may be feeling stressed, anxious or drained!  Close your eyes and keep your breath comfortably even before imagining tree roots forming from your feet and growing down into the earth. Watch them in your mind’s eye as they travel down, down, down into the Earth’s core where a large ball of light waits to heal you. Once your roots reach the light, the light travels back up these roots until they reach each root. This bright light travels from your feet all the way up your body to your head. You can reach your arms to the sky, as if they were treetops and picture the light reaching the tips of your fingers! You can repeat this meditation as many times as you like and as your candle burns you can use this energy to perform any divination such as tarot or oracle cards, rune casting or using a pendulum with a pendulum mat! In this meditative state it is also really good to do some journaling or shadow work!  Shadow Work Prompts to Help Heal the Inner Child: Healing our inner child is a lifelong process that we must always be mindful of. There is much that can be experienced through those crucial formative years of our lives, some good and some bad! We are big supporters of things such as counseling and therapy as everyone struggles with at least something and there is no shame in taking care of our mental health! It’s important to note that shadow work prompts are meant to help guide our thinking in ways we might not always have the mental capacity to! What was your childhood like? What emotion do you remember feeling the most as a child? What was your relationship with your parents like as a child? Did you feel like you could trust them and communicate well? If you could say anything to your child self, what would you say? Did you have a safe space as a child?  What situations in your life have triggered a child-like response from you? Angry outbursts? Jealousy?  What does the word “childish” mean to you? Is this a positive or negative word to you? What character traits from childhood do you still carry? Do you like these character traits about yourself? What are five favourite memories you have from childhood? At what age did you no longer consider yourself a child at the time? What are childhood hobbies or activities you wished were normalized to do as an adult? Why?  Moms Need Self Care It’s pretty much a given, if you’re a mother, your first priority will always be your children. So, that’s why we came up with some ideas on how you can take time for yourself after a long day or whenever you have time to put yourself first! Make some time for yourself because everyone deserves to take care of themselves! Self care is so important for our mental health and dedicating this time for yourself creates healthy habits and mindsets! Self care can come in so many forms, it can be whatever it means to you! Light some candles, run a bath, pour in some soothing bath salts and hop in (maybe even throw a bath bomb in there!) Give yourself a gift, it doesn’t have to be of monetary value but it can be as simple as taking time for yourself. Go for a walk and enjoy mother nature and the divine feminine- and how you are one Put on a face mask and massage your face and neck to drain lymphatic fluids built up and causing tension Put on a pot of tea and grab a book,journal or divination deck and take some time to sort out your thoughts and feelings! Mother Day’s Gift Ideas The Heritage Bee "Tea Lover" Gourmet Honey Gift Set   Harmony Wellness Tea Crystal Tea Infuser  Life is a Cycle Whether you are the mother or the child (or both!)- there are so many ways to express love, honour and respect when it is due! Mother's Day is all about acknowledging all the hard work moms do, and if that includes you, then take some time to turn that love, honour and respect inwards! Whether it's a day you want to make about your mother, or Gaia or yourself, there are tons of ways you can make it magical! We all come from a long line of mothers; women who withstood generations of sickness, poverty, plague and oppression and who were much less fortunate than we are today! That's a long list of bad witch ancestors who lived and worked hard just so you could be here today, and it all started with Mother Earth! 

After the fiery, impulsive energy of Aries, Taurus season brings a "fixed earth" energy that is steady, reliable, and calm. It encourages slowing down, reducing anxiety, and grounding yourself in the present moment. As we step into Taurus season, it’s the perfect time to slow down, reconnect with the earth, and indulge in the simple pleasures that bring us joy. Whether you're looking to create a sense of stability, attract abundance, or embrace your sensual side, Taurus energy invites you to ground yourself and enjoy life’s beautiful moments. Let’s explore how you can make the most of this earthy, luxurious season! As the sun moves into Taurus on April 20th, we enter a period of grounding energy and abundant potential. Taurus, ruled by Venus, is the zodiac sign that embodies sensuality, practicality, and the love of beauty. This season offers us the chance to slow down, reconnect with nature, and focus on building stable foundations for the future. Taurus is a fixed earth sign, known for its determination, loyalty, and practical approach to life. This season, you may feel a pull to focus on the material aspects of your life—your home, finances, and overall security. Taurus encourages us to create a sense of stability and permanence, and it’s a great time to build or reinforce the foundations of your dreams. Venus, the planet of love and beauty, rules Taurus, making this a period of heightened appreciation for all things beautiful. From lush gardens to comforting home spaces, Taurus season invites us to bask in the pleasures of the material world. It’s an opportunity to slow down, indulge in the things that bring you joy, and savor the moments that often go unnoticed. To fully embrace the grounding and abundant energy of Taurus, we can work with herbs and crystals that align with the season's themes of stability, sensuality, and prosperity. Herbs: Rose – The queen of flowers, representing beauty, love, and attraction. It enhances your connection to Venus energy, helping you embrace the beauty in life and love. Thyme – Known for its grounding properties, thyme supports clarity and stability, making it perfect for Taurus season when we seek to solidify our intentions. Patchouli – A fragrant herb that connects us to the earth and encourages grounding, patchouli is a wonderful choice for Taurus energy, helping you stay rooted and focused. Crystals: Rose Quartz – The crystal of unconditional love, rose quartz promotes self-love and compassion. It supports the Taurus desire for harmony in relationships and helps to open the heart. Green Aventurine – Known as the stone of abundance, green aventurine attracts prosperity and helps manifest wealth, making it an ideal companion for Taurus season’s focus on material stability. Carnelian – This vibrant stone ignites creativity and passion, encouraging you to take practical steps toward your goals while infusing your work with energy and enthusiasm. Taurus season invites us to enjoy the pleasures of life while staying grounded and focused on our goals. Here are a few rituals to help you harness the power of Taurus energy: Create a Sensory Ritual: Taurus is all about sensuality, so create a ritual that appeals to your senses. Light some candles, burn your favourite incense, and surround yourself with the scents, sounds, and textures that bring you joy. Sit in a comfortable space and meditate on what you want to manifest during this season. Visualize your goals as tangible, material achievements. Ground Yourself in Nature: Taurus is an earth sign, and there’s no better way to connect with its energy than by spending time in nature. Whether you go for a walk in the park, tend to a garden, or simply sit outside and breathe in the fresh air, allow yourself to connect with the earth and feel its grounding energy. Set Practical Goals: Taurus is a practical sign, and this is the perfect time to work on your long-term goals. Think about what you want to build or manifest over the next year. Create a realistic plan for how to achieve it and take small, consistent steps toward your desired outcome. Taurus teaches us that patience and persistence are key to creating lasting success. Indulge in Self-Care: Taurus energy thrives on comfort and luxury. Take time to pamper yourself with a soothing bath, enjoy a delicious meal, or indulge in a favourite activity that brings you pleasure. Taurus season reminds us that self-care isn’t a luxury, but a necessity for maintaining balance and well-being. Don't forget that self care also includes doing those things that are good for us, like eating healthy, getting enough rest, and getting rid of bad habits. Self care involves self discipline.  As we move through Taurus season, think of it as a time to plant seeds—not just in the earth, but in your life. Whether it’s starting a new project, investing in a new habit, or focusing on long-term goals, this is the time to build the foundation for the future you desire. Taurus season encourages us to enjoy the present moment, but it also reminds us of the importance of creating something lasting and meaningful. Use this time to cultivate stability in all areas of your life, from your physical surroundings to your emotional and spiritual well-being. To further enhance your connection with Taurus energy, here are a few affirmations to help you stay grounded and aligned with the season’s themes of abundance, stability, and sensuality: "I am grounded, stable, and secure in all areas of my life." "I attract abundance and prosperity with ease and grace." "I trust in the process of life and know that all things unfold in perfect timing." "I honour my body and take time to nourish myself physically, mentally, and spiritually." "I am worthy of all the beauty and joy that life has to offer." Taurus season is a time to slow down, appreciate the beauty around you, and build the life you want to live. Embrace the earthy, sensual energy of this season and allow it to guide you toward greater stability, abundance, and peace. Whether you're manifesting new opportunities or simply enjoying the comforts of life, Taurus energy offers a steady, grounding influence that will help you thrive.
