Deck Review — Mood Crystals by Christel Alberez and Nereus North Goldstar
Deck Review — Mood Crystals by Christel Alberez and Nereus North Goldstar Publisher: David & Charles 50 Cards Release Date: 13th September 2022 Thank you to David & Charles for providing this deck for unbiased review. I really enjoy instructional decks — something beyond the standard oracle or divination deck, where each card carries learning and information beyond connecting with your inner self. This deck certainly ticks that box. From the moment you open the box and pull out the guidebook and cards, you can see that each card is not only beautifully presented but rich in useful detail. Let’s start with the guide booklet. There’s a short introduction that…

Mindful Souls Subscription Box Review
Mindful Souls I absolutely adore getting subscription boxes, and this one was an impulse buy after seeing the company advertised on Facebook. *Note: This box was not provided free in exchange for review. This review is entirely impartial and the opinion of the author only. Mindful Souls at mindfulsouls.com is a pretty, minimalist website offering crystals, jewellery, and other spiritual wellness products. The one that caught my eye was the Mindful Box, promising “Self-love and self-care” via a monthly subscription of crystals, aromatherapy products, and mindful jewellery. The price was more than I would usually have liked to have paid, but there was a special offer on: Usually £39.99…

Jade Unboxes! Manifestation Box from Gogh Jewelry Design
Gogh Jewelry graciously sent us one of their monthly Manifestation Boxes to review in our Pages. It came in a simple, yet cute box. I like that they didn’t use a lot of paper, glitter, or other extras in the shipping department. In my opinion, I would rather the box and décor are simple, and the money better spent in product or material for the customer. The box consisted of a necklace, a bracelet, and a stone, as well as a handout on the theme for the month and your personal astrology for that month. The necklace (which was my favorite item in the box), was…

Jade Reviews The Healing Lamp From Conscious Items
Product Review Store: Conscious Items Product: The Healing Lamp Retail Price: $49.99 Conscious Items sent us their “Healing Lamp” to review. It is absolutely adorable. They have a wonderful description of the item on their site that includes a very extensive list of Clear Quartz properties. I think this stone is probably the best choice for a lamp, as it helps and heals with so many different things. Because the stone is not permanently attached to the lamp, it does offer the option of changing out the crystals if you wanted to focus on one thing specifically, which I think was smart. With the use of Clear Quartz however,…

Mindful Living: A Connection of Mind, Body and Spirit
As we journey through the wheel of the year, we are going to connect that journey to our mindfulness practice. Our goal will be to explore ways that mindfulness and meditation can be woven into both our daily and magickal practices. This turn of the wheel brings us to Ostara and the astrological sign of Aries. Together they represent newness and potential that is shown to us by the sprouts, blossoms and buds that being to awaken. Aries lends a drive and determination to the atmosphere that encourages moving forward and reviewing our goals, resolutions and plans. Our mindfulness practice makes us aware of the shifts in energy as the…
