Preparing for the First Eclipse 3-23-2016

Hello everyone and Bright Blessings. How has everyone been since I was here last? I got my lease to my apartment renewed last Friday, and I am sure part of that was because I hurried and did that money spell of mine before I went down there. I specifically asked for my lease to be renewed, and for a couple other financial favors. During this past week I also went out doing stuff or my Avon side job, I now have 2 more customers and am busy trying to get ahold of more that I got contact information from..The Eclipse is tonight, and I have definitely felt the high and low energy from it falling in the sign of Libra. Libra sometimes cannot make it's mind about what it wants to feel, think, and do, and finding balance is often a struggle. Libra is also the astrological sign that rules relationship matters, and how well those balance and play out. I have also gravitated between being wide awake and trying to work and then feeling like I am going to pass out asleep any second.  So yes the Libra energy emanating from this coming eclipse is really throwing itself out there. We will see events that begin on this full Moon Eclipse, manifest and last up to September, when the next corresponding eclipse occurs. Anything we do in magic and in our normal daily lives, and whatever other happenings that transpire in our lives after tomorrow night, well you have this Eclipse to potentially thank or lay blame on.
I am going to continue my money spell work, I have that check spell to finish, and I have to finish that love spell that I worked on at the New Moon Solar Eclipse. What you begin,you have to finish. I started spell work during a solar Eclipse, so now I have to finish it, on this coming Full Moon Eclipse, and if I don't well I don't want to think about what kind of disasters could result if I leave it all hanging, or somehow don't get the time to finish it all. while working with my pendulum recently, I had a temporary answer sheet written up, to help with more accurate questions, and the pendulum kept circling around the word " Reconciliation" and then going to someone's name that I had written on the paper. I had not posed a question to my pendulum about that answer, it just kept circling on its own  and answering for me. When I actually asked if I should attempt a reconciliation between myself and the other person the answer was a very strong "Yes" so I suppose I will also make a request for that and see what happens.  Just yesterday I got another Avon sign up so now I have two people selling under me, that bumps me up a bit in Leadership. That also tells me that Higher Powers are favoring my previous request that I made this past Friday. I am going to use one of my new Adam and Eve Roots in my love spell tonight and add it to my bag, I am sure that will add some kick to the spell already in progress!   I am going to have to go, I have things to prepare for later tonight, and i will update soon as to what happens!

New Moon Solar Eclipse Update.

Hello Everyone and Bright Blessings! How has everyone's week gone? Mine has gone pretty well. I wanted to come in and update on how things have been turning out since the New Moon. I got my Adam and Eve Orchids yesterday, and I have to say they are definitely not the same as those packets I had been buying. I am now positive that whatever is sold in those pink packets is possibly not actual Adam and Eve Roots, maybe they are just dried out pieces of the root, or a knock off or a substitute, as the roots on the live plants are entirely different, as is seen in the picture below..

  As you will notice, there are two root balls , the  Adam root is the one with the leaf attached, and the Eve root is the one attached by a root stem to the lower bottom. One one of my plants, the Adam root has a longish spur like stem growing from it, perhaps that is another plant leaf or something, I haven't yet determined that, and well it's not hard to imagine why it is the Adam part of the root! I am going to morrow to get potting soil and some new containers to put them all into, as the ones I currently have are too small and the root balls are bigger than I was expecting. I will be harvesting my roots after the plants have flowered and he seed pods form, this will be sometime around Beltane or later. Supposedly the seed pods are hard to propagate and form new plants from, but I am definitely going to try it and see if I can do it.  
Now onto other magical matters. After doing my New Moon spell, thus far I have won $5.00 on a scratch ticket, I just sold my TV and speaker set for $100.00, and said buyer of the TV has offered to show me a new method for a side job that they do, so yeah there might just be a extra income stream open up for me from that too, and a customer placed a $36.00 Avon order last night. So yes abundance and a bit of wealth is coming my way! Also, a odd thing happened, I got two sets of Adam and Eve Orchids, now I have 6 plants in all, and somehow it came to be that the site that I ordered the plants from sent me a odd email stating that I did not complete my order, so I entered the order again, and then was charged again for the same order, and they sent me extra plants as a bonus for their ordering mistake..or was it a mistake? Perhaps that was a divine sign that I needed more than just 3 plants. I am not going to question how the Higher Powers do such things, I will accept what is apparently another form of abundance being gifted to me. I might have just paid $34.00 for these plants but in the end I might end up being rewarded a lot more than what I originally paid.

This coming Friday the 18th, I have to renew my lease..and I am nervous about that. They might look at my financial information and adjust my rent, and I am not in the financial position for that just yet! I am doing the usual Friday before the Full Moon  ritual work, and also there is that other Full Moon Eclipse coming so I am seriously going to be asking that things go in my favor next week as well.
Since I have these new plants, a little bit of magic can be done using a plant and a flower pot. you take a plant of your choice, be it a money drawing type plant, or a love drawing type plant, or any plant or seed that embodies your intention and you "plant" your intentions down into the earth of the plant, using the energy from the Earth and the plant itself, to manifest a intent. As the plant grows, so doesn't you intentions into manifestation. To activate plant magic you offer a wine libation or Lunar charged water, a stone or a coin or something that symbolizes your intention, and a biodegradable paper petition, as you water and care for the plant, the spell is absorbed into the plant, and the plant itself, along with the earth it is planted in, becomes a magnet for you desires. The plant grows and releases your magical intent from itself. A healthy thriving plant that has a spell worked on it is a good sign, and of course if it withers and dies, well perhaps your intent was not meant to be. They say money doesn't grow on trees? Technically speaking yes it will if you have a basil or other money drawing type plant, and you work a spell on it to grow you some money! Perhaps I might just plant myself a petition for a new lover in the ground with my new Adam and Eve plants, and watch to see if he springs from the ground in front of me one day. That would be interesting to see! I am going to go for now, and I shall return with more news soon. Have a great weekend everyone!

Spell for New Moon Solar Eclipse

Hello everyone and Bright Blessings! Who got to see any of the eclipse we just had? We didn't get to see it because we live in the states and there wasn't any visibility. I done the spellwork that I was talking about tonight, I won't get my coveted Adam and Eve Roots in time to do the spellwork on the right day and time, so I went ahead without them, I will add them to my bag later as a extra kick. Tonight I charged my psychic and dream bag, my money drawing bags, and my love drawing bag. I made a new jar spell called "Bring My Soulmate", the intent being that after 6 long years of me being hermetically single, well it's time that I got over some things and started trying to bring in the right kind of love into my life, instead of wishing and hoping for what and whom will not ever be. Sometimes you can love someone for all the great things they are and what kind of person they are, but well they just don't love you back the same way, and they are just not going to be the person that can or will give you the kind of love that you actually need or what is best for you. I don't need a "friend" or a plaything or a lover or just anything that comes along. I need "The One", that person who complete me down to the last molecule of my soul, that makes me feel and think I have found a patch of heaven on earth. I have not had the greatest luck in finding that person, despite there being lots of potential for it. Potential is not the same as concrete solid follow through however.  So inspiration struck me to make a new jar spell. There is a Full Moon Eclipse coming on March 23, and i hope to see some positive results by then. Here is apic of my altar table as it looked just awhile ago...

The red candle and bag and the jar on the left is the "Bring My Soulmate" spell in progress, notice how the candle was flaring pretty bright? That's a good sign of positive affirmation. The jar and bag and candle on the right is my money drawing and prosperity jars and bags. There is a "Money and Luck Rain" 7 day candle in the background. Yes that is a rather cheap looking pie plate that the jar and bag is sitting in, however tin is a good conductor of magical energy. I just happened to have the pie tin sitting on the table  before I started so I used it, magic goes with the flow. Ingredients for the jar spell are as follows,
1 spell paper written to specify your intent, 1 red 4" candle, 1 8 oz wide mouth jar.
2 Lodestones, 2 Garnets, 2 rose Quartz, 2 Rhodonites, 2 Emeralds, magnetic sand.
Spanish moss to wrap the paper in.
Recite the paper and wrap it around and round with Spanish moss to secure the paper, lay it in the bottom of the jar.

Lay the lodestones on the moss covered paper, sprinkle  them liberally with magnetic sand.
Now you will add  1 pinch each of Calamus Root, Licorice Root, Magnolia Flower, Hydrangea Root, Quassia Root, Myrtle Leaf, Lovage Root,  1 pair of Adam and Eve Root. 1 Mango Seed and 1 Apricot pit. 1 High John,  1 piece of Jezebel Root, 1 piece of Angelica, Devils shoestring, 2 whole Nutmegs, 2 pieces of Patchouli Root, and a pinch of Vertiver.
These specifically are for drawing in committed relationships and marriage minded partners. Mango seeds are hard to get into, you have to peel off the  fuzzy outer shell and get to the whole seed inside, that is the part you use. Make sure the Apricot pit and the mango seed are very dried out and there is no sticky residue on them, that will cause the entire jar to grow mold, which is the last thing we want! You can also take all of these herb and root ingredients and use them in a medium sized red flannel bag, I am using a jar because I already have a bag, so I just added more ingredients to my bag.

Sprinkle the roots and other herbs with a good dusting of Love Drawing Powder of your choice, I used my own recipes. Powdered Sugar would be great to use, to sweeten up the effects.
Add your stones on top of everything in the jar, and drop 9 drops each of Ylang Ylang , Orange, Ginger Grass, Apricot and Sesame oils. Add extra drops of any kind of Love Drawing oils you might have, just use drops of 9 each of those too. The named oils mentioned above are especially known to draw in committed relationships and marriage minded partners, and to unblock the way for it to happen. Seal up the jar, and stick your anointed red candle on top of the lid, and light it.  While the candle burns down, Visualize your soulmate coming to you, or that you will find them soon.
Very soon after I finished this spell, while I was sitting here typing this, the cat and I  found a Lady Bug that had 9 spots on it's back , well I am going to be counting 9 blessings soon, if the adage about counting your blessings from the lady bugs spots is true.  When I first spotted it, the cat was watching it go crawling on the wall next to my bed.  Lady bugs are a sign of abundance and many blessings. So I take it that she came along to give me a sign that my request is at least being considered. I am going to go for now it is getting late and I need sleep, and let us hope tomorrow brings me some great news to report.

New Moon Solar Eclipse Is Coming On March 8,2016.

Hello everyone and Bright Blessings! How has everyone been? Things around here have been exhausting, my son has had the flu since last Monday, He was feeling good enough to go back to school today. I have been keeping a vigil over him and I have to say I am worn out. Last night and today I mustered the energy to begin writing on one of my books some more,cleaned the house, and caught up the four loads of laundry.
On a brighter note, there is a New Moon Solar Eclipse in Pisces coming on March 8th. whatever we begin on this New Moon is going to be special indeed. I am going to charge my spell bags, write out one of those little abundance check spells, and maybe brew up a new spell jar, that is inspired by a interesting idea that just recently crossed my mind. I even ordered new spell supplies to use for this particular spell, I will post about that later and reveal my newest creation soon. I recall a spell that I done some time ago during a New Moon Eclipse, and it was very strong and results were very potent and long lasting, so my idea is to try a slightly tweaked version of the same kind of spell, and see if I have the same or a similarly strong result.  Today I was seized by the urge to clean and in particularly in my bedroom/altar room, I organized my herb box, which was becoming cluttered, from me grabbing ingredients and then just sticking them back in the box. In doing so I felt a strong sense of awareness and a good zap of energy, a spiritual presence was in the room with me and was definitely approving of what I was doing right then. It is not like me to neglect or slack when it comes to my altar room, but for the last week I have been too tired to even go in there to clean or tinker with anything. Whichever spiritual presence that is living in or temporarily visiting my altar space was at least waiting on me to come back and begin being my witchy self again.
Today I paid a somewhat pricey $17.00 for 3 real live Adam and Eve Orchid plants, these are the same plants that the potent spell roots come from. I seriously intend to be growing my own supply of these Orchids so that I can have those roots on a as needed basis. I have hunted for Adam and Eve root packets for ages now and no one has had them in stock. Well lo and behold, while googling the scientific name of plant species, I found a native wildflower nursery right here in Tennessee, (located HERE)  that sells the bare root plants year round!
Adam and Eve is somewhat hard to obtain because they are a odd growing plant that has a irregular growing season, and the roots grow at different stages during the plant's lifespan.The Adam root grows first during the winter months and produces the above ground leaf, while the Eve root grows later in the spring and produces the flower stem. Usually they are harvested after they have flowered, so you can get both roots. The hard thing about that is occasionally if weather conditions and other issues affect how the plant grows,then there is no Eve roots or flowers produced, and you have to wait to see if a plant will flower again the next year. this is also why those roots are so treasured to use in love spells and relationship spells, if you want that love bad enough then sometimes you have to wait a bit to get what you want, and then you have that time to really think about if what you want is worth waiting that long to obtain.  
Usually when I get Adam and Eve Roots they are dried root pieces that come in a pink packet, and those work well in most spells well I can only imagine that freshly dug and shipped live root clusters are much more potent! The effects of those live roots being used in a spell would be fantastic!  It is always when you truly need something then God and Goddess will always point you in the right direction, and I will say now that perhaps my next spell endeavor will be favored upon considering the fact I just happened to find those plants today, after weeks of fruitless searching.
I will still go down to Botanica La Paz next week, as the shop owner graciously promised me some Adam and Eve packets if I come by next week and that he will have them for me. It would be rude customer manners of me, if he went through the trouble to get those for me and then I did not go and get them, and I intend to buy a couple more things, just to be a gracious customer. I am sure that the extra money will  be appreciated, because he was nice enough to probably pay extra shipping and etc. just to get me a particular product delivered to his shop. That is also the same place where I found that very elaborate and well maintained Saint Holy Death altar space. Today when I went in there, the table itself had been moved and Her statues were even more decorated and surrounded with offerings.
I am going to hop off here for awhile, I have work to do, and it is my son's bedtime, I will be back soon to post about what happens after the New Moon Eclipse.
