Falling leaves on my mind...

So recently I have hinted to a few changes coming. One of the biggest changes is I am moving back east! I am moving back to the upstate New York area just in time for my favorite time of years...Fall (hence the beautiful leaves!).

My recent trip to the redwoods, river and ocean gave me time to put into perspective what steps I wanted to take next. The Bay Area has been my place of residence for over 4 years yet has never really felt like home.

The east coast is calling me home. So in the next few weeks I will be making the journey cross country (again!). In the meantime I will not be processing orders on The Moonlit Sea website or doing any services through The Town Witch website.

Once I get settled in my new home I will be re-designing the web sites and adding new products. I will also be talking more about what I have brewing for a new physical location! Don't forget to watch the website and this blog for updates.

back from the woods...

Well I am back, refreshed and ready to make some changes around the online shop.

The camping trip was fabulous. I was able to spend time at the ocean (saw amazing stuff at the tide pools along The Lost Coast) and at the river. The magick of being deep in the redwoods was beyond words. I have been to the redwoods before but never was able to experience them like this.

For me the trip was about re-newing and re-charging. It also gave me lots to think about what I want to do with the shop and what I want in a physical location.

So things are in the works for a total re-vamp of the online shop and the beginnings of a physical location.

More on that later!

Redwoods, Ocean, River

I am heading out of town to sit under the Redwoods and cleanse in the Ocean and River. A much needed vaction/retreat. I have some rituals planned for this weekend and lots of time connecting with Mama Ocean and Mama River.

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July.

I will return refreshed and renewed next Monday!

Blessed Be!

A Spiritual Bath to Remove Negative Energy

Clean your body in the tub or shower before taking your spiritual bath. After you have taken your bath or shower clean the tub to prepare for the spiritual bath.

Put mint, rue, fennel and angelica and a pinch of black pepper into a tea strainer or muslin bag and place the bag into a clean heat safe glass bowl.

Boil water and pour it into the bowl making sure the herb bag is covered.

The death of a former self;
My eyes have awakened along
With my spiritual resurgence."

Experiences...

Oseaana Inara December
There is power in words. Manifestation starts with thought then words then action. I have been thinking about who I am and who I have become. I have lived a life of ups and downs, goods and bads, joys and disappointments. I have journeyed down many paths and have had the good fortune of meeting some amazing people. I have learned a lot from my experiences...both the good and the bad.

In my recent herstory I have had a spiritual awakening of sorts. My eyes have been opened to situations that I had foolishly thought didn't exist in the circles I choose to participate. In my personal, spiritual, and career life I have always made decisions based on the experience...not necessarily on the outcome. I crave experience

Being fulfilled is essential...so still I searched high and low for a community of spiritual sisters. My spiritual life has felt full and empty at times. Last year I made the decision to look at my life and the situations I had put myself in and I asked is this where I want to be? Are these the people I want in my life? Is this a true connection with The Great Mother? Is there more? Was there something more? Does magick exist?
