• Candles: Which Wax is Right for Your Spellcraft – Part III

  

  Now let’s take a look at beeswax. Beeswax is the oldest known ingredient in candle making history. It is reported to date all the way back to the ancient Egyptian culture and was found in many of the pyramid excavations. It is believed that they dipped papyrus leaves in the wax before burning them. Beeswax […]

• Behind the Mask . . .

  Let’s face it – most of us have been hurt in some form or fashion by someone we really cared about. That’s life – it happens to the best of us. But occasionally, we are unfortunate enough to care about a drama queen (or king). I’m not talking typical drama either – I mean the […]

• ‘Severance Package’ Ritual Offering

  February 14 – Conjures up images of baby cupids in diapers, arrows with heart-shaped tips, and little hearts floating over couples’ heads. But what about those of us that are Anti-Valentine’s Day? Valentine’s Day isn’t all about love… or a diaper-clad baby shooting arrows at people… it’s also about those that can’t get rid of […]

• Karma – Shamarma . . .

  Karmically-speaking, I expect most of you will believe I shall be struck down by lightning before I finish this post.  I don’t “do” karma… I’m a realist. Karma – noun – is defined by the folks at Merriam-Webster as, ‘: the force created by a person’s actions that is believed in Hinduism and Buddhism to […]

• Fresh Dirt

  Hello again, my minions! I thought since I was on a roll, I might as well do another blog posting. This is on one of the projects we have started since moving to the bayou. The dear hubby read an article about turning compost into actual dirt – so thought he would give it a […]

• Graveyard Dust and Cemetery Dirt . . .

  Often times when you hear the words graveyard dust or cemetery dirt, it conjures up images of people sneaking into a cemetery in the dark of night and doing dastardly deeds in order to sell their soul to the devil for untold power, talent or riches. For people like myself, these words mean something much, […]

• A World Without Witches

  Just came across a poem by Robert F. Potts – thought I would share. Can you imagine a world without witches, A world with all the people the same? Where the only known dragons are hiding in books, And children are terribly tame? A world without magic would be sad indeed. I cannot imagine the […]

• Tarot Readings from the Rougarou

  I am a Witch… and what’s a witch without a magickal familiar? I was raised on a ranch – around animals and critters of all kinds. But, I can thank my father for my love of cats. As far back as I can remember, I have had a cat in my life. And, usually a […]
