Get out of a rut and get going! It’s back-to-school time and the kids are ready…but we’re like… “What?”  Too much to coordinate; too much running around to do; appointments; vaccinations; recordkeeping; scheduling; taking care of the house…and all the business that that requires; cooking dinners; let alone preparing for the “homework fun” each night…; AND, to boot, it’s still hot out there!  Our bodies are still screaming Summer!!!!  What’s up with this; and what’s more, how do we get motivated when the air is thick, sluggish, muggy and warm and everyone’s moving in slow motion?  Now, maybe it’s not so hot/warm where you are, but it sure is here…

5 Steps of Grieving Blend     We are all on different paths, going through different experiences, but some things are the same for everyone. One of those is the five steps of the grieving process that we all must face and walk through when there is a major loss in our lives. Those five stages of the grieving process are: 1-Denial-“this can’t be happening to me”, looking for the former spouse in familiar places, or if it is a death, setting the table for the person or acting as if they are still living there. Not accepting or even acknowledging the loss. 2-Anger-“why me?”, feelings of wanting to fight…

MABON ~ A Witch’s Thanksgiving and a Time of Harvest In Every Area of your Life! This is a wonderful holiday that hasn’t yet been overcome by commercialism and this holiday still holds a great deal of self-reliance and dignity.  It’s a quiet time.  A time of change and is, in my opinion, one of the most colorful holidays naturally.  The new crisp Fall air, the twirling leaves, the warm days and brisk nights…. The smell of crisp apples, the gold, orange and rust colors of the leaves…it’s nice to have a cup of hot cider or hot chocolate in the evening and breathe in the magick of the evening…

I AM SWAMPED WITH STUFF TO DO; NO TIME TO DO IT; STRESSING OUT OF MY MIND “SPELL” http://www.underthenewmoon.com The title on this one truly says it all.  So, really, if we are to be honest, the last thing you need right now is ‘another thing to do;’ right?   Well not to worry… this spell is quick, easy and works.  I have to admit that I am a notorious ‘over-achiever, over-extender of myself and my days.  I am an herbalist, an aromatherapist, a massage therapist, a practicing; every-day witch, own my own business that I work 7 days a week (well, I try hard to take Saturday afternoons off…

At this time of year, I like to do a yearly “re-balance” check within myself.  Sort of like a tune-up.  It seems like throughout the year, I slowly, bit by bit, get scattered and torn in a bunch of directions in my life.  I like to take time to refocus at this time of year just around or shortly after the Summer Solstice, and again do a tune-up around the Winter Solstice.  It helps me keep sane.  This is a good ritual to do to also help relax you and ease stress.  It is an excellent spell to do prior to going to/getting ready for bed and helps to clear…

QUICK On-The-Go Spell to Remove Poverty, Lack & Restrictions from One’s Life No matter what types of spells I write, I inevitably get many, many requests to do more “money, abundance” spells.  It’s not that there’s not a ton of those out there already, but everyone across the board seems to still be struggling with having abundance free-flow in their lives (my name can be added to the list of strugglers, lol, although I am seeing results well from a change in my thinking and a very focused intent…) Given that this time of year can be the time that people think of vacations and getting away from it all,…
