Definitely quartz Violet

Barton - any supermarket will have juniper berries in the herbs/spice section. :)

Just hobbling in to say hello again now we have power back Yashmis that pic just about sums it up!

VioletCharlotte · 14/03/2019 12:44

Yashmis that picture sums up exactly how I'm feeling todays. Nothings going smoothly, I feel like I'm constantly chasing my tail!

Thanks Elphame and Blanktimes for identifying the crystal 😊

I had a lovely, cosy evening with my medium friend yesterday. She been reading tarot for over 40 years and is the best teacher you could ask for. Consequently though, I went home with my head buzzing and couldn't sleep. I do need to find some ways to close my self down after doing spiritual work as this is a common problem for me.

Hello, a few threads ago a lovely poster advised me of a good psychic protection book. I googled it at the time but now I intend to buy one, I've forgotten it! Love and light.

Margot33 · 14/03/2019 14:03

Found it! It was Dion Fortune's book, thanks @TooManyPaws

Margot33 · 14/03/2019 20:57

Thanks @Elphame
That book looks interesting. A witches moot in my area have just had a workshop on witches bottles. I missed that one! Would you say that particular book has information about using a shield of protection?

Elphame · 14/03/2019 21:41

John Canard's book is more about folkloric protection than the setting up of personal shields. So plenty on using plants and charms/spells etc to ward yourself rather than the more "head" based defences.

He does give instructions on how to make a witch bottle!

Evening all, is there anything I can do to make the truth come out in a situation? I don't want to put myself, but I can give some details.

I quit my job because the senior manager took a dislike to me, fair enough, you can't be everyone's cup of tea. She then made my life difficult and I took the decision to leave, I am wise enough to leave a toxic situation. However, I would like her to be exposed for the horrid person she is, by forcing the truth of her treatment out.

Sorry if this is vague, I don't want it to be outing! My last day is tomorrow, then I have some plans to do some self healing whilst thinking of the bigger picture.

BlankTimes · 14/03/2019 23:03

Hi Sock,
As long as your references are ring-fenced, I'd just use word of mouth in that situation, stand on your desk and shout it across the whole office mention it to a couple of colleagues who may be thinking of applying for your job as a heads-up along the lines of You'll never believe what manager did, so if you get my old job, watch your back.

The difficulty with any working of the sort you're after is that everyone has their own truth, the closest I could come to one would be to give your colleagues clear insight into nasty manager's motivation, but then again, it's easier to just have a word.

After tomorrow, you could do a cutting the cords meditation to cut every connection you have with the now ex-manager.
Visualise every single way you are connected to her physically and emotionally and then cut that cord as spectacularly as you like with some strong words to break every bond. Use your own words to sever each connection.

Wine Cake Flowers for you to celebrate being free of the nasty woman and starting a journey to work in a much better place.

MrFMercury · 15/03/2019 07:07

Hi Sock. I hope your last day goes as quickly and calmly as possible x

Elphame · 15/03/2019 10:11

Good luck on your last day and well done for getting out of there.

When I was in a similar situation I did a working so that the person would be seen by all for what they really were.

Margot33 · 15/03/2019 11:37

@Elphame ah I see that makes sense, in that case your book might be more useful in my case. Thanks.

Margot33 · 15/03/2019 17:08

@SockPortal I once had a horrible boss. When I left I wished everyone could see her for who she really was, as everyone loved her. Two years later I bumped into some ex collegues who told me that she did the same things to them, one by one they all left bar one. So give it time, her actions will be exposed naturally. Try meditation and reiki to feel positive energy.

VioletCharlotte · 15/03/2019 19:37

Sockportal hope your last day went ok. It's horrible working with people like this. Personally, I wouldn't do anything. My view is that people like this expose themselves in time. Rather than dwelling on it, I would put your energy into removing their energy from your space and concentrate on positive work that will help you move forward.

YashmisCrone · 15/03/2019 23:42

Good evening,

Just taking a minute by the aga to breathe and enjoy a night time tea.

It’s been quite a week here as it seems to be for many of us. Not all bad for me, but different, unplanned and unexpected have been themes here!

It was lovely to take some time in the woods, by the river with a four legged friend this afternoon. Just the replenishment I needed.

I gathered a few river stones that caught my eye and washed my hands in the gloriously cold water.

I love how the water is so soft and peaty yet cold and fresh. Such a different feel to sea water. It was still quite wild out and the river was running fast. I took a video of it to play to myself when I feel I need a top up. I find the sound of the river flow with birds singing in the background very soothing.

That was the magical highlight of my week Smile

Love to all with wishes for peace healing and restoration of order from the chaos as applicable x 💫

I have had a bad few days. My mental health took a massive dive and I suspect this is linked to the hideous period I am having. (Perimenopause is at play)
Then my youngest son has come down with an evil virus, two nights of lucid dreams and fever. We are all exhausted as he thrashes about and shouts and has bizarre conversations.

I have, though, had a new tarot arrive. It's the Courtney Davis deck.

VioletCharlotte · 16/03/2019 08:44

Morning all. I've been awake since 6, not sure if it was the wind keeping me awake or just my head buzzing! I went to my spiritual group last night, enjoyed it so much and was able to make two, really good links with spirit. I find afterwards I'm always flying so high that I can never sleep properly! I need to find away of shutting down properly after working, any tips would be approached!

Yashmis your post is helping actually, the description and images are so calm and soothing. This is the kind of place I need to be today, but it's blowing a gale where I am.

Loyaultemelie · 16/03/2019 09:26

Queenrollo sorry to hear what you are going through. Sending healing thoughts for you and DS.
Sock I hope your last day went ok?
Yashmis thank you for sharing your photos and description I am really missing getting out in nature!
Today is a tarot day as Dd1 has asked me to do a spread for her, I know she has had some bother in school and I'm hoping this will encourage her to talk about them as she's young for her age and gets anxious. Hopefully by doing it this way she will feel more able to talk.

queenrollo · 16/03/2019 09:33

Actually could someone do a remote tarot reading for me when they have a moment? While I do have decks I am still very much a learner and would like a more experienced reading.

VioletCharlotte · 16/03/2019 09:40

Queenrollo sorry, I didn't see your post when I posted mine, didn't mean to ignore you. So sorry you're going through all this and hope your little one starts to feel better soon.

speakout · 16/03/2019 11:15

Good morning everyone!

Is there space by the fire for one more?

I have missed you women!

It started to snow heavily as I woke this morning, falling in big lazy clumps, all my new shoots in the garden are coovered in a fluffy coat.

I am excited about the candle connection tommorrow- is it 4pm or so?

So lovely to have you back Speakout, we've missed you too! I saw on the news there was snow in Scotland and wondered whether you had any. No snow here in the south, just rain and wind!

I'm looking forward to our candle connection too ✨

Queenrollo I'd love to do a reading for you later, I'm no expert, but it will do me good to practise.

speakout · 16/03/2019 12:16

Thank you, It's lovely to be back here, like sinking into a deep warm bath.

My amazing tribe.

I love your river photos- the river looks exactly like one that is just a few hundred metres from my house.
