Tonight we are in the waning phase of the moon. This is the first phase after a full moon and it means that the moon is shrinking into the new moon phase. It’s a great time to do spell work for releasing what does not serve us. 🧼Here’s a bath time ritual that you can practice anytime, but this moon phase makes the timing perfect. 💭Think about whatever is on your heart and mind that’s holding you back. Maybe you have a test coming up for school and you’re afraid you’ll fail. 📝 Get a pencil and some paper and start writing down all the beliefs of self judgement that keep you from achieving your best, for example: I’m not smart enough. I always get the answers wrong. Whatever your harsh feelings are, write them down. Take your time with it and really think while you journal. When you are done, prepare your bath and cast your circle. While you sit in the water, first ground yourself. Then begin your ritual by reading off each thing on your list and say out loud or to yourself, “I release the belief that I am not smart enough.” And pour a cup of water over your head. Imagine it washing away your harsh belief. Read the next thing on your list “I release the belief that I always get the answers wrong.” And pour another cup of water over head, again imagining it washing away you harsh belief. Go through your entire list and when you’re done, step out of the tub and watch the water go down the drain. As it goes down, affirm your work by bidding it all farewell and speaking good things to yourself. “I am smart enough. I will get it right. Because I speak it, so it will be.” You can even do this in the shower if you don’t have a tub. Just let the water run over your head as you release what you no longer want, and let it was down the drain. 🚿 Love yourselves Little Witches ❤️🧿

It’s almost Friday! I have a challenge for my Little Witches. Mother Nature is such a beautifully stubborn lady. She refuses to stop giving. Where people try to control her and cover her up, she finds a way thrive and continue to provide. No matter where you live, you can find magical medicinal plants, EVERYWHERE YOU GO! So starting tomorrow, my challenge for you is to find and identify a plant. Pay attention to what’s growing in your yard, alongside the roads, even sprouting out of the cracks in sidewalks. A super easy way to identify a plant is to take some pictures and use google image search. Don’t bother the plant. Don’t touch or disturb it in any way, just say hello and observe. Notice every little detail, and take your pictures. Lots of plants that look like the plant you are trying to identify will come up. Once you think you have identified the plant, do lots of research to be sure. Remember, to identify a plant you have to look at the plant, as well as the environment the plant is growing in. Come back here on Monday to show me the picture of your plant and tell me about it. This is going to be super educational for me as well, because I will get to see what’s growing where you live! And I’ll share some of the plants that grow where I live. Let’s have some fun! See you Monday Little Witches!

How do you understand a plants magic without ever being taught? You let the plant teach you of course! We talked about Borage. Did you know that Borage is the plant of courage? If you sit with it, it will tell you why. It’s fragile leaves and pretty little flowers, blooming in shades of blue and purple and pink, all covered in tiny hairs that protect its fragility. It grows with a sense of empowerment. As if to say “I am brave and bold and strong because I am protected”. Isn’t that the kind of courage we all need sometimes? Can you think of times when you could have borrowed some of that courage from borage? How would you have used it and how could you use it in the future?

@Mickey-Reign-1632 thank you so much for joining us!

I thought I would tell you all about myself and my family. I live in my hometown with my 5 kids whose ages are 22, 18, 12, 8, and 7. And my best friend, soon to be husband. Our two dogs Rick and Space Ghost, and our two cats Hecuba and Espiritu. We live in an old historic Citizens bank building. It sat abandoned on our Main Street for a pretty long time until I bought it and opened a coffee shop in it . There’s a vault here where I keep my herbs, I say they’re the real valuables. I get to carry on my Grandmothers work in this way, harvesting my herbs on the same mountain where she harvested hers. My bestie / husband is a traditional singer and drum maker. He supports a Sundance ceremony that we attend every year where he leads the drum. Last year prayers came in a hard way, and things got rough for us. My business got robbed and this old building was falling down, so that’s when we decided to move in and fix it up and turn it into a home. It was really the only option. So it’s different, but it’s home to us now. My other best friend, Ms. Amy, also owns a business. That’s how I met her. And Creator has been working some funny kind of magic ever since. Me and Ms. Amy, we seem to be kinda stuck with each other. Wherever I go, she ends up. And wherever, she goes, I end up. It’s not really like we picked each other, but more like Creator said we’ve got work to do together. And if I were to guess why I am here now in this time and place with these people whom I love so much, I think I would probably be correct when I say I know why. See, my hometown used to be a really hoppin little place. There was so much life and love here. But then things happened, and somehow, everyone just got tired. Everyone got sad. People started to forget what it was like when things are good here, and they started to move away. A sort of collective depression happened, and it stayed that way for a long time. Businesses closed up. It’s like the color even went away. Even I spent many years being sad. Until I decided to make a change and I bought this place and opened my business. Around that same time, Ms. Amy opened hers.
