Occasionally, The Witch\u2019in Way will release a theme box, as well. The boxes contain a variety of charming handmade and natural goodies to help you celebrate the appropriate Sabbat. Based in Halifax, Canada, The Witch\u2019in Way has no problem shipping their wonderful items to the U.S.A. for actual shipping, no price gouging here! Knowing that a lot of the items in the The Witch\u2019in Way Box are handmade we were curious to see what the items we would receive would be and the quality of them. When the box arrived, we were very excited. &nbsp; The Packaging &nbsp; &nbsp; The The Witch\u2019in Way Box arrived wrapped in plain,brown paper with their label in the corner. Their label is not large or overpowering in any way, so really no unwanted attention is drawn to it. Even though it says the name of the company, I think those in the broom closet can get away with receiving this package. It looks inconspicuous enough. &nbsp; We were so excited by the package, we jumped right in\u2026 &nbsp; Open Package &nbsp; &nbsp; As soon as you open the packaging, and tear wide that box, the beautiful wrapper and sticker are exposed. &nbsp; Informational Pages &nbsp; &nbsp; The first item you get in the box is the Informational Pages. Love these. So important for every box to have. Their sheets come with tons of facts. The theme of our Witch\u2019in Way Box is Yule. Their Informational Pages give the background of the Yule Sabbat and the facts and information for materials included in the box. They even make sure to include poison warnings for herbs. The paper it is printed on is a lovely parchment. I did notice, after going through the entirety of the box, a few minor items were not mentioned. If you do not know what certain things are used for it may be an issue, but if you are a seasoned witch, it will not make a difference. &nbsp; Mistletoe &nbsp; &nbsp; The freshness of the herb supplied took me by surprise. I have yet to have received such a quality yet. The smell was incredibly aromatic and the color was intensely vibrant. The Informational Page The Witch\u2019in Way supplies suggests several spells Mistletoe can be used for. They supply you with a generous amount that you can use them in a variety of those spells. They even make sure to warn you of the fact that ingesting Mistletoe is Poisonous. The Witch\u2019in Way is on top of things! &nbsp; Star Anise &nbsp; &nbsp; You can smell the fresh aroma of black licorice, as it penetrates through the bag of Star Anise. The pieces are whole and beautiful, not broken bits just lying in a bag. You are given a good amount, at least half a bag\u2019s worth of the fresh herb. The Informational Page suggests what it is useful for and a way to make use of it. &nbsp; Two Charcoal Discs &nbsp; &nbsp; They can be used to burn resins, incense, powdered herbal blends or dried herbs. Two Charcoal Discs are included with the Box, but their use is not explained to you. Most experienced witches know their purpose, but those new to using loose herbs and such may not know. I assume they are for burning the loose herbs that come with the box. &nbsp; Two Tealight Candles &nbsp; &nbsp; These two tealights are not mentioned on the Informational Pages, but we all know what candles are. These smell as though the green one is a pine and the red may be cranberry. The scents are very strong and agreeable. These could be used as any candle could be used; for spells, rituals, black-outs. The colors and fragrances are appropriate for the Boxes theme. &nbsp; Citrine &nbsp; \u00a0 &nbsp; This large hunk of Citrine arrives in a lovely gossamer bag. This smooth, shiny, polished gemstone is a large size. The coloring is, simply put, beautiful. Because of the shape of the stone I received, holding it is incredibly soothing. It fits in the palm of my hand and is nicely cradled within. I can easily meditate with this stone comfortably. The Witch\u2019in Way has included the correspondences for Citrine on their Informational Pages. &nbsp; Yule Oil &nbsp; &nbsp; The Witch\u2019in Way includes a generous sized bottle of their own Yule Oil Blend. The aroma is impressive! Strong, not a weak scented oil. You can tell it is properly made and blended. The Informational Pages explain to you what the oil is made up of. It states, what is contained within from it\u2019s base oil, to all the essential oils mixed in. Not only that, it explains why they used each oil and what it represents. Each component is appropriate for a Yule working and they mix together marvelously. &nbsp; Mini Yule Log and Candles &nbsp; &nbsp; When we came upon this in the box we squealed with excitement! Our own Yule Log! It can fit in any home. How cute. What an incredibly imaginative, creative, great idea! I have never seen anything like this before. It is solid and very festive. Very well made, from a real log. Now for the best part\u2026 The Witch\u2019in Way includes candles. They are birthday candles. They have cut the holes into the log and the candles fit right in perfectly. So you may purchase more candles on your own and your Yule Log is re-usable! You have a permanent Yule Log you can use year after year. Easy to store because of it\u2019s size. &nbsp; &nbsp; The Informational Pages tell you what a Yule Log is, what you can use yours for and suggests a great way to get your whole family involved in a ritual involving the Yule Log. &nbsp; Witch Ball &nbsp; &nbsp; Just when I thought the beauty of the Yule Log had me, I unwrap a gorgeous Witch Ball. Handmade by The Witch\u2019in Way and simply put, beautiful. It is to Bless &amp; Protect your home. The Informational Pages tell you all that it holds within. It contains: jasmine flowers, cinnamon, cedar, and has hanging amethyst and citrine stones. There is, also, a rune\/symbol in the witch ball that is not mentioned on the sheet. I am not sure what it\u2019s meaning is, but so far knowing the rest of the contents of the box, I feel certain it\u2019s appropriate. &nbsp; Yule Cards &nbsp; &nbsp; I loved this idea. How many of us are searching for cards around the holiday that have a simple message that is not christian? We have to settle for a plain \u201cHappy Holidays\u201d. Or, how many of us have to make our own! Well, The Witch\u2019in Way has included a set of 6 warm and unique cards for us to send out for the Yule holiday! Not only are they thoughtful but they are beautiful. I do love the fae and winter faeries are perfect for the season. &nbsp; My Overall Impression\u2026 &nbsp; &nbsp; The Witch\u2019in Way definitely has a different type of box. Made up of mostly homemade items, their own blends, and definitely their own unique ideas. I must say I LOVE it! All handcrafted. That brings a special aspect to it. Knowing that someone actually cared enough to build you this box piece by piece. Impart magick bit by bit, in every feature as the box grew. The creative thinking The Witch\u2019in Way put into this box impresses me. A Yule Log that can be used in all size spaces and saved year round. How to incorporate your entire family into your celebrations. Creating something to Bless &amp; Protect your home that looks so lovely. The thoughtfulness of including Holiday Cards to send your friends and family. The Witch\u2019in Way was very generous with their size of products. They definitely did not hold back with their generous supply of oil and herbs. I guess the only thing I could say is that the Informational Pages should have included those things like the charcoal, tealights, and the rune information. But that is so insignificant compared to all they offer! &nbsp; Let\u2019s meet The Witch\u2019in Way\u2026 &nbsp; Willow Moonhawk is the wonderful woman behind The Witch\u2019in Way. She has taken some time from her busy schedule to answer a few questions with us at PaganPages.org &nbsp; PaganPagesOrg: What brought the idea of the Mystery Box to you? Willow Moonhawk: I will no longer be offering a Mystery Box\/Surprise Box.\u00a0 When The Witch&#8217;in Way began there were 3 of us, then 2 and now only myself, Willow Moonhawk.\u00a0 I have been doing the boxes myself for approximately 6 months and felt I couldn&#8217;t keep up on my own while also working full-time night shifts as a nurse. I will be only offering Boxes for the Sabbat Months, and on occasion may offer other Themed Boxes as well. &nbsp; PaganPagesOrg: I am sorry to hear that you will no longer have your Mystery Boxes, but so happy that you will still have your Sabbat Boxes. Your Boxes are amazing and it would be sad for the community to lose them. I look forward to seeing some of your Theme Boxes. How did you begin the Sabbat Boxes? Willow Moonhawk: I always wanted to start a pagan related business, and the subscription box service has become increasingly popular.\u00a0 The idea was presented through the original partnership. &nbsp; PaganPagesOrg: How do you choose what you place in your Boxes? Willow Moonhawk: Items are chosen to coincide with the Pagan holidays and are meant to be tools and items that can be used in ritual and day-to-day practice.\u00a0\u00a0The herbs and stones are chosen for\u00a0the Sabbat as well. &nbsp; PaganPagesOrg: Is yours a recurring monthly Box? Willow Moonhawk: The Boxes originally were offered on a monthly basis, but as of March 1st, 2018 they will only be offered in a limited number via The Witch&#8217;in Way Etsy shop.\u00a0 The goal is to be able to offer 5 -10 Boxes for each Sabbat. &nbsp; PaganPagesOrg: Are you, yourself Pagan? Willow Moonhawk: I am a practicing Pagan, and have been since 1999.\u00a0 I am eclectic, but am drawn to Norse and Egyptian pantheons.\u00a0 I am also a natural medium. &nbsp; Thank you so much Willow Moonhawk from The Witch&#8217;in Way for chatting with us and Sharing! &nbsp; If you are interested in a Sabbat Box or Theme Box from The Witch&#8217;in Way, or any of their other products, you can visit them on Etsy at: https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/ca\/shop\/TheWitchinWay &nbsp; *** About the Author: Jennifer Sacasa-Wright\u00a0is a Witch of many paths.
