Happy Valentines Day and a few superstitions you may not be aware of. :)

Just drying a few rose petals for future spells. I hope you're having a wonderful Valentines Day and hope that you celebrate it everyday and not just today!   

In the meantime, have you heard a few of these superstitions?  

Count horses, not sheep:
There's more than one way to count a horse.  According to superstition, if you count 60 white horses and one white mule, you will marry the first person with whom you shake hands.  Similarly, if you counter 100 white horses during a leap year, the same will hold true!

Mirrors bring about Prince Charming:
Sleep with a mirror under your pillow to dream of your future lover.

You can predict your lover's initials:
Take 26 pieces of paper and write a letter of the alphabet on each.  Then place each paper face down in a bowl of water and put it under your bed.  In the morning, the pieces that are face up in the water are the initials of your future spouse.

And you know you're a crazy cat witch when you stay up until 1 a.m. creating a cat Valentines Day card to send to fellow cat lovers on Facebook.  By the way, if you all don't know yet, my cats have their own Facebook page!   Look for My Life as Quincy and enter the world of crazy animal lovers.

Snow Water

It's been snowing for days and days and days.  Well, okay, just three so far.  I feel like I'm going crazy and getting cabin fever.    I eat, then craft, then watch a movie, then dote on cats...then start the whole process over again.   Then an idea hit me!    Why not go out and gather some snow to make sacred snow water for spells!    Hmmmm...perhaps a spell to "melt away" something in your life?   I can think of a few things to melt away, like FAT.    So, I've melted some so far and tagged it as such.   :)

Here's to warmer weather tomorrow (oh please, oh please) and thanking the Universe for this little blessing.

A Sweet Find

I found this at T.J. Maxx.   I love it.   It's the perfect keeper for my tools.  I'm always trying to find a way to organize.  This year, my goal is to de-clutter and organize.  I'd say this is a start.

 

Intention Bottle for the New Year!

So, this is only the second time I've ever done an intention bottle but I feel so good and so powerful making one.   This time around, I had some completely different intentions and I feel really good about it.   I have it sitting on my alter and I blow a kiss of acknowledgement to it everyday I pass by.    Sounds silly but it works for me and that's what matters.

Doing energy work with friends has been much more fulfilling.   Making an evening out of crafting, visiting, drinking, eating, laughing and being merry really makes it all the more special.   How do you prefer to do energy work?

Perseus here is going to look into his magickal (colorful) ball and tell you your future will be bright and prosperous!   Hold onto that thought for the New Year and begin to see it manifest!

Hope you're all having a blessed week!

Hello! It's me. Remember me?

Why hello there!   I thought I decided to stop in and say hello after TWO YEARS.    Yep...that's me, constant, reliable, steady....uh huh.

Okay, first off...I'm so, so sorry I dropped off the face of the earth several years ago.   I think I got a little burned out from blogging and then I really disconnected spiritually during the time I've been gone.   No excuse, but I found it hard to write about things coming from a spiritual mind.   I'm sure you get it.  ;)   Oh and that window down below in my last post.  Yea, it's still the same.  I'm really focusing on getting things completed this year.  I'm not making resolutions...because I think that's the new thing.   No resolutions.  I'm a follower, I admit.  Lol!

Spiritually I have reconnected!    I have two very close friends of mine who have helped me connect and get back into the swing of things.   We've done some energy work together, we volunteer at the shelter together and most importantly, we meet at our favorite Scottish pub here in town and just talk, talk, talk.  It's so therapeutic to get together with the girls and just TALK.  :)

Oh! Oh!  I did accomplish one thing.   I added another cat to the gang.  Hey, it's something.   His name is Habib (means Beloved One in Arabic.)   I brought him home from the shelter I volunteer at but I actually brought him to the shelter two years ago when my girlfriend passed away from cancer.   I brought all five of her cats to the shelter.  Habib was the most feral of them all and after working with him for two years to get him socialized I fell in love with him and he fell in love with me.  *sigh*  Finally, my token black cat. ;)  My little panther.

Oh and one other thing.  Quincy has his own Facebook page.   He has 1200+ followers and going strong. He has more friends than I do.   I'm feeling kinda insecure about it.  ;)   So, if you want to see the so-called reality show of my cats lives, swing on over!   Click on his picture above, and it will take you right on over!

So, with that said, here I come!    Get ready for some more posts!

Hope you all are doing well and wonderful!

Many blessings and always a bright future!

Herb Window

I'm starting my herb window. Remember the "fern" window I created a few years back? This will get me through the cold season. :)

Peace

Do you see that up there? Yea, that adorable, rustic wreath with the peace sign in the middle? I want to make it. I'm going to make it. I have the twigs from my travels in the forest and now I just need the wreath. I'll show you when I'm done. :)

Peace to everyone!
