Plant these in your garden or buy them in a dry or essential oil form. Place fresh or dry herbs or petals by your bed before you sleep or on your desk through the day.  Put a few drops of oil on a cotton ball and breathe in. Place 30-40 drops of oil into a 4oz spray bottle and fill it the rest of the way with distilled water. Spray the solution onto your pillows before bed.

Crystal connoisseurs - I need your help!

wild-unknown:

I went to a thrift store today and picked up this beautiful piece:

image

She’s currently soaking in a warm water and salt cleanse to get rid of as much dirt as possible, and until then, I’m trying to figure out if the orange bits are considered citrine or if it’s just more dirt and worn with age.

Would you know what exactly this piece is called? Just a quartz cluster, I’m assuming? She weighs at least 3-5 pounds and is very solid. Whoever brought it in didn’t clean it as when I gave the piece a good wash off, a ton of red dirt came off of it. Sad.

What do you think its worth? I paid $10 for it and while I think it’s a very reasonable price, I’d like to know what something like this could go for.

Thank you all! xx

Anyone? Hah.

Anonymous asked: what would you recomend is the best tarot cards ? how much would you expected to pay ? by the way i live in england x

There’s no right or wrong when it comes to tarot cards. Most people pick their first decks based on a design they like. My first deck I bought at Barnes & Noble, it was $12 - ish and I bought it because inexpensive, came with an instruction booklet, and looked pretty.
They don’t have to be expensive or super detailed. The most important part of a new deck is to be functional and something you won’t be afraid to let become worn.

Blessings,
Katy

mythologyrules: In Celtic mythology and religion, Cernunnos (also called “The Horned One”) is a Celtic god of fertility, life, animals, wealth, and the underworld. Cernunnos was worshipped all over Gaul, and his cult spread into Britain as well.He is depicted with the antlers of a stag, sometimes carries a purse filled with coin. The Horned God is born at the winter solstice, marries the goddess at Beltane, and dies at the summer solstice. He alternates with the goddess of the moon in ruling over life and death, continuing the cycle of death, rebirth, and reincarnation.

overjoyedpessimist: Have I Met My Twin? Twin Flame reunions are the most fulfilling relationships we can enter into as humans, on all levels. However, twin flame couples have been extremely rare on the planet, and for good reasons, which will be described later. Despite this, we are finding that more and more twins are finding each other now, because of the acceleration of spiritual transformation and opportunities for soul evolution we are all experiencing. People are evolving and learning and healing at such a fast rate that they are getting ready for their twins faster. What used to take lifetimes to learn and heal, people are now going through in years or even months. This is the astounding level of acceleration we and the planet are going through. When twins get together, it is for some kind of spiritual service work. This is their primary reason for finding each other, because through their union a huge birthing of creative energy is released, to be used for their mission together. More and more twins are attempting to get together now to help the planet and humanity make a big shift forward in consciousness. However, many of these attempts at reunion are unsuccessful because the individual people are not quite ready for the intensity of a twin flame union. It is more intense than any other union, and this intensity is at a soul level, not as much in the physical or even emotional bodies. This doesn’t mean that there isn’t a good attraction at those levels as well, but the strongest attraction is of spirit. This is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a twin soul. Many people think they have met their twin because the attraction is so intense, but it is a karmic attraction, one of need or bodily desire rather than the Divine Love of twins. Your chance of meeting and staying with your twin depends on how evolved your soul is, and how much of your baggage from this and past lives you have cleared. The biggest reason twins have to separate after coming together is their individual emotional baggage. Because in the presence of your twin, there can be nothing between you, nothing blocking your closeness. This means that everything comes up for healing that you haven’t previously healed. Everything! When twins reunite, both of them experience an acceleration of their spiritual growth and awakening. They get on the fast track of learning about esoteric wisdom and experiencing other states of consciousness. They usually haven’t been together all that often during their series of lives on the planet, and so their backgrounds may be different. Yet, there is a closeness and similarities of spirit that are almost uncanny, noticed in many ways, such as looking back at yourself when you look at your mate, and a remembering of the distant past when you first split up. Guidance is strong with these relationships, and usually one or both have a good channel for communication with Spirit. Their connection is telepathic, and hugging each other is like coming home for nourishment.

pagans-path: “Smudging” is the common name given a to powerful cleansing technique from the Native American tradition. A smudge stick is a bundle of dried herbs, most commonly white sage, bound together by string. It is used in rituals to cleanse the area/house and drive away negative energies and spirits. Any action undertaken with intention and belief can become a potent ritual, so consider your intention before you smudge and hold it clearly in your mind. Smudging should be done with care, with reverence and in an attitude of love. How to smudge an area:    1. If you’re doing it inside close the windows and doors    2. Light your smudge stick on the unbent end from a candle    3. Put out any flames so it’s smoking    4. Make sure you have something to catch any ashes in as you move around the house    5. Walk around the house and waft the smoke into each room with your hand or a feather    6. While you’re doing step 5 say/think/whisper something along the lines of asking dark forces to leave and only embracing the light    7. Make your way back to the room where your alter is set up, and smudge yourself by moving the smudge stick around the outside of your body three times as it burns    8. When you feel the smudging is complete, stub the smudge stick out and make sure it’s not still burning (you dont want to burn your house down)    9. Now, proceed with your spell/ritual

UPDATE:

A few things:

  • I’m trying to make Tuesdays the day to submit questions, opinions, reflections, etc.. It’s still new so even *I* forget about it sometimes. That way it gives us admins the week to research and reply.
    However, that doesn’t mean people cant submit questions and such any other day, because ya’ll totally can. I just want to gain a little more structure to make things more smooth.
  • Secondly, I know it’s been a while since I’m accomplished a fairly large sized project for TC. I just wanted to let ya’ll know that I’ve been working on compiling a list of Celtic related books to add to our Arcane Archives. I’m doing this because I’ve been getting a fair amount of inquiries about Celtic related info: pantheon, lore, traditions, etc. So I’m compiling everything and making an entry specific to the Celts.
    So if ya’ll have any you’d like to add, leave the title and author in a message please!

Yay? Nay? Any objections or suggestions? Let me know either in my personal blog or on here.

Blessings,
Katy, Lead Admin

karistocat asked: Hi there, I was wondering, do you have any guidance or any descriptions on twin soul relationships? Are there any spells or crystal magic that can help this type of relationship? As with all TS relationships, I understand they take time, patience, reflection (which can be painful) and realization of oneself before reuniting and finally 'coming together'...I want to know if there is anything to help that? And what are your thoughts? (thanks and blessed be) x

I have to admit that I haven’t heard of a twin soul relationship before. I’ve heard of soul mates but not twin soul relationships.
Reflection is supposed to be a learning process; you learn from past mistakes and successes, what you did wrong and how you can do better next time. It shouldn’t be painful, if it is…maybe you’re looking at it in the wrong light?

Blessings,
Katy
