I love the noon candle such lovely energy

YashmisCrone · 11/04/2019 12:37

Ouch speakout, sending love to you too 💖

I’m visualising is as those hares, soaking up the spring sunshine, goddesses ‘on charge’ 🌞 xx

EnchantersNightshade · 11/04/2019 15:08

Enjoying the blue skies & energy of nature here. Have used the only energy I had & lots of help to lie flat on the grass outside last week, under the plum blossom watching busy birds. Such bliss!

Just wandering in here with a triple mint tea to admire the noon candle & gazing hares and listen quietly to the gentle chatter. Feels warm & welcoming as always.

Agreed YashmisCrone your witch next to the tower has a most knowing look about her Smile.

speakout will listen in for post-sword news.

One day I'll be able to keep up & reply to everyone in person. I'm learning so much & I'm having to surpress all my Q's!

YashmisCrone · 11/04/2019 16:19

I’m on the triplemint too Enchanters Smile

Curled up in my garden chair allowing the sun’s rays to soothe me and noticing wild strawberry flowers have found their way to the patio. I’m not even sorry for all the things I should be doing Grin

So lovely to hear that you managed to get outside, sounds glorious. Wishing you many more moments like that 💫

Yes, the more I sit with the tower witch, the more I like her energy. There’s no getting away from sudden change and destruction but I like her attitude!

Lovely photos Yashmis. Sorry you're having a tough time at work, it feels like you're going through a process where things need to get worse before they get better. Good to hear you're resting this afternoon and enjoying the sunshine. It's a beautiful day, I've been stuck in the office all day unfortunately.

Enchanters it's good to hear from you, it's so nice to hear you managed to get outside to lie on the grass, I bet that did you the world of good.

Loyaul glad you're having a peaceful day, we all need more days like that!

Speakout I hope your days not been too '9 of swords'? This card tells me you're in need of a little TLC. Take it easy and look after yourself 💕

YashmisCrone · 11/04/2019 20:37

Thank you Violet, yes I think that might be the case.

I hope you can get out in the sunshine soon.

The pictures are a couple of things I came across today- such is the synchronicity of life..

I enjoyed this blog about ‘getting through dark’

I made this tonight, fellow aubergine lovers may enjoy it too!

Thanks Yashmis me too, I'm off work for a week after today, so hoping the weather stays nice.

That recipe looks delirious, I love aubergine. Thank you for sharing.

Sending positive energy and strength to you and all of my beautiful sisters tonight ❤️💫

RomanyQueen1 · 11/04/2019 22:26

Also sending positive energy to you all.
Oh I'm on cloud 9, my dd is home with a big cuddle and telling me how much she's missed me. There were tears of joy, a lot of unpacking, washing machine on, but a lovely afternoon in the garden, pulling my dead heather up. Sent dh to get some plants, haven't seen what he got yet, but he's the green fingered one.

Loyaultemelie · 12/04/2019 09:05

Good morning to you all.
Romany how lovely enjoy having dd home.

Yashmis I love aubergine can't wait to try that when I get out in the kitchen.

Peace and quiet is well and truly over today with the school holidays starting but Dd1 and I are going to make some more comfrey oil together

SalemSpellman · 12/04/2019 09:06

I'm back with a name change, I used to be Sock, new name in honour of the worlds most famous familiar. I'm glad my own one is much better behaved and less hell bent on taking over the world.

I'm taking DD out of nursery for the day, I'm looking forward to some time out with her. And my lovely gran has given me some plants for my garden, I'm looking forward to planting them and bringing some brightness into my garden.

Things are feeling good for today.

And I include a photo of my little female familiar.

Greetings to all magical ones. I am catching up a bit but have a lot to get through before I can say anything good!
I have been quite busy with supporting a family member with a life limiting condition, and it has been quite stressful. Shout out to my coven, who have been so supportive.
I will contribute my pic of my miniature witchy library that I am making. It's a slow process, making millions of books..... 😀 but it keeps me sane-ish.

Morning all, it's a lovely, sunny day here. I'm working from home. It's so nice looking out the window at the sunshine and the blossom on the trees. This is my last day of work before a week off, I'm so looking forward to some down time. Tonight I'm going to one of my spiritualist groups, I've been doing quite a bit recently, I love the energy. I always feel so much happier when I'm doing regular work with spirit 💫

Gigg your miniature library is fabulous! I love things like this, you are so clever. You just have spent so lunch time on it, the details is incredible. I had a beautiful, handmade dolls house when I was a little girl and have always loved anything like this.

Salem beautiful cat 😊 Hope you have a lovely day with DD. And you too Loyaul.

BlankTimes · 12/04/2019 12:24

I was about to say Morning but see I've missed it!

Speakout and Yashmis I hope today's day is better for both of you.

Enchanters lovely to see you, contact with the grass is a practise called (oddly enough) Grounding or Earthing and its advocates are certain that it's beneficial. There are mats and things people can buy if they can't get out onto real earth. www.earthing.com/what-is-earthing/

Gigg that Library is adorable, love the way you've used my hairstyle for the Librarian Halloween Wink
Salem great n/c and familiar !

I've heard of a new book which compiles several areas of our interests so I thought I'd link to it to see what you think. It's called The True Hero's Journey and it's part self-development and we all love that! part ancient stone circles with their solar and lunar aspects (that later became just solar i.e. patriarchy) and part the truth of instructions contained in tales and legends that have been passed verbally down the generations. There's much more to it, have a look at the author's website and see what you think. www.andreahofman.com/

YashmisCrone · 12/04/2019 13:01

Good afternoon sisters,

It’s lovely to stop by and sit amongst you all with a coffee, catch up with your days.

Gigg I love you miniature library!! Just fabulous 📚💖

Beautiful familiar Salem thank you for the lovely picture Smile

Wishing Romany and Loyaul a lovely time with respective DD’s and Violet a super connected evening 💫

I do enjoy reading of everyone’s adventures and insights.

BlankTimes that book sounds fabulous! We do like a bit a personal development here don’t we Grin

Thank you for the good wishes sisters. It’s a time of change for me, and not in a quiet gentle way!

Following on from yesterday’s tower, my deck gave me the death card today. I have to admit to going back for a different one (this picture made me laugh!) no, definitely death!

It’s ok and part of me enjoys the decisive and definite energy of these cards. Things need to change and they will! So I’m emitting quite a fiery energy atm, my gentler, intuitive side is running quietly somewhere in the background while I tap into my warrior spirit to get things done. There’s a time for everything isn’t there?! If we stop attaching labels of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ to situations I think we can just work with the energy it gives us, although I wouldn’t like to be in my employer’s shoes right now.. Confused

Wishing everyone a magical day ✨

Yashmis death is a great card! It's all about new beginnings, which makes sense given your work situation.

Blanktimes that book sounds fab, I've been looking for something to read during my week off so will buy this I think. Thank you for sharing 🙏

YashmisCrone · 12/04/2019 14:05

Thank you Violet, yes it does make a lot of sense in that context- a new chapter awaits! x

speakout · 12/04/2019 16:25

I agree about the death card VioletCharlotte it is a great sign.

We all need to use some kick ass energy sometimes and some things need to be destroyed.
I can think of many things that are best trodden upon.
Unfairness, inequality, bullying.

A good result is ahead YashmisCrone.

Elphame · 12/04/2019 19:26

Wow that miniature library is incredible Giggorata

I've completely lost track of what's going on in this thread having missed a day or so - it goes so fast!

My brain is totally addled at the moment, I got my biopsy results yesterday - totally as expected. Yes a new tumour. Yes appears totally benign so what do I want to do? My answer - nothing!

I also had the most dreadful nightmares last night. I'm deep in a rune research project and it manifested in a dream of being surrounded by letters dancing and singing along to the Floral Dance.....

I think I'll just hit the gin tonight. Have a magical evening everyone!

speakout · 12/04/2019 19:33

Giggorata

That is so beautiful and intruiging. Minaturies are so alluring- you have such a skill. I love your attention to detail. Just amazing.

speakout · 12/04/2019 19:36

Elphame

So good to hear from you. I am glad the test results were OK, but still must be unsettling. I can sense your frustration.
Please feel supported here.
Your dreams are understandable, and your mind's way of making sense of what is going on.
I think gin is a sensible solution!!

SalemSpellman · 12/04/2019 19:42

@Giggorata I love the mini library, it looks like something really rewarding to work on.

I enjoyed my trip to the farm, I renewed my respect for Mother Nature and all her creatures. I watched the tiny lambs feeding from their mother, it looked vicious but the mother just stood there and nursed her offspring.

YashmisCrone · 12/04/2019 22:10

Absolutely speakout! Grin couldn’t agree more. Wise words as ever. Thank you x

Good to see you Elphame I’m not surprised you had an unsettled night, that’s a lot to go through by anyone’s standards. Sending a wish for calm and a more settled night Gin

Good to hear about your farm visit Salem that’s a powerful image of the mother doing what needs to be done for her young despite her own discomfort. Us females are made of strong stuff aren’t we. I was admiring lambs skipping through the fields as I drove home tonight.

Just wanted to share some things that inspired me today.

Wishing everyone a restful night✨

Good morning brave sisters- I love those quotes and poetry YashmisCrone , thank you.

Contemplating a second coffee here, listening to wood pigeons outside my bedroom window. a frosty glaze covers everything outside and a clear blue sky promises a sunny day.
I have to de- paganise a room again, my mother has a cold, nothing serious, just lots of snezzing and tissues, but the bishop from her church is coming this afternoon to give her a blessing and lead some prayers. He has an enormous appetite for sugar so can be easily placated by large quantities of hot chocolate and cake.
I pimp up the hot chocolate with cream, shaved chocolate and marshmallows on the side. Him and the elders scoff the lot. Good to see people eindulging in earthy pleasures.
Last time I noticed a dribble of chocolate sauce on his chin when he shook my hand to say goodbye.
......
Time now to jump in the shower ( a spa shower as I am on a weekend of self blessing) then I have to do a little work, pack up an urgent order to take to the post office, then hopefully breakfast out with Mr speakout if he does not have urgent work to do.

I will take my camera out with me today now that I have finally mastered most of the functions!!

I hope everyone has a magical day.

VioletCharlotte · 13/04/2019 07:17

Good morning. I woke up early today so used the time to listen to a guided meditation in YouTube. I went into such a deep relaxation, total bliss ❤️

Speakout sounds like you have a nice weekend planned out, spa shower sounds like the perfect way to start the day.

Elphame sorry to hear about the tumour, but very relieved it's benign. Still unsettling though I'm sure, and not surprised you've been having weird dreams, it's your minds way if processing things. Take good care of yourself over this weekend.

I'm about to get up and do some yoga to set me up for the day. Then I'm going to take the dog for a walk. This afternoon I'm going to a psychic fayre with a friend, which are always quite fun.

Hope you all have a relaxing day ❤️

Loyaultemelie · 13/04/2019 10:58

Good morning everyone! It's delightfully windy here today and I am feeling the benefits. I finally had a breakthrough in my walking, I can now get the knee straight and hobble properly on the crutches. Now to work on pain and more weight bearing but it's starting to feel more possible

Elphame no wonder you were unsettled!

Salem it always amazes me as the lambs get bigger they are really rough feeding and Mum never seems to bat an eyelid. Glad you and dd enjoyed your day.

Gigg, wow that mini library is amazing, such fantastic detail.

Blank that book sounds wonderful.

Yashmis that tarot meme really made me laugh it must have struck a chord.

Speakout enjoy your photography once you get de-paganise.

Wishing you all a magical day
