Surprises in the mail!

The past few days have been really really hard for me. I have been put in a position I had hoped to never have to be in with one of my best friends and my partner. I am not sure how it will play out but I am hoping that the package I got in the mail will be enough. I forgot that after I didn't win Nydia's giveaway on her blog I knew that I needed to buy somethings from her. I was really excited to support another witch and to add to my collection of witchy items.

What I got in the mail was a Tree of Life god. He is so beutiful I can't wait to find a place for him and call on him for some guidance.

Next we have the mini freya goddess! I really love that color on this one. I have worked with Freya in the past and I think she might actually be really awesome for me to do some magic with her. With her influences at my altar hopefully I can get back on track.


Finally Nydia sent me a Dia de Los Muertos skull magnet! I love it.
Like I said I had totally forgotten the fact that I ordered these and to have them come at a time when I need some guidance is great. I wonder if Nydia put any herbs into the dolls while creating them. Anyone know any herbs that are good for conflict? And I mean helping to solve or reduce the effects of conflict in a home?

This new god and goddess will enlighten my life in one way or another so I guess I will have to sit, wait, and see!




PS
I found this amazing plant the other day and was just reminded of how amazing the goddess can be at any point!!!

Heal our Mother

On Monday I participated in Heal the Water with my partner Bobby and with my new altar that my mother-in-law gave me. I was worried that I wouldn't know what to do but when I was at the bank with my partner I saw a box of crayons and sone paper so I decided to make a drawing. I must have been inspired by Nydia's son Lucas becasue I saw his drawing and must have channeled that. Nydia is actually the one who came up with the wonderful idea of continuing the ritual every Monday and I encourage you to all participate if you can!
Here is the picture I drew. It is the ocean with the oil slick in the water. But I didn't want to have that be permanent since I am sending my healing vibes to the Gulf so I decided to put green over it symbolizing the recovery of the water under the oil. Then I drew purple around it because purple is a spiritual healing color. Then I was sparked with a genius idea (from the goddess I am sure) and decided to draw the triple moon spirit sending out her yellow healing power. I also put a pentacle on there for healing earth power.
On top of that I placed a blue bowl and in that I pour salt for cleansing and say "Heal our mother" and then place a garnet in the bowl as well and say "protect our mother!".
I am really happy knowing that I am joining in with witches all over the world on Mondays sending our healing energy to our mother.


In other news PLEASE send your healing vibes to my home of Flagstaff Az. Unfortunately there is a huge fire burning 5 miles away from my home. It has scroched over 14,000 acres of forest. I know that the forest will rise from the ashes like a phoenix but until that time the fire needs to be contained. Please take the time to send out your healing touch to the forest if you can.
Here are some pictures of the smoke coming from the fire:


Remember "HEAL OUR MOTHER, HEAL OUR EARTH!"
Blessed Be!
