A SPRING SOLSTICE GIFT
Saturday my friend Ametrine and I had a wonderful day out, shopping at the craft show, and then a visit to our local (one and only) crystal shop. Followed by a great lunch and some fun tarot card readings. I also received a magickal and unexpected gift from Ametrine! A salt crystal votive holder and a lovely card. This will be one of the first things to go to the Witch's Cottage when decorating day comes!!

The Name Game
My latest posts have been about the progress of the "Witch's Cottage". I have dubbed it that as Hubby and I have been talking and planning it.
However, I am not sure that I would like it to be called that going forward. Although I like that reference because that is exactly what it is, I would love to hear some other suggestions to name it. I will say that I am very partial to the word "cottage" as that has some wonderful childhood memories of our family cottage at Lake Ontario. But I am really open to suggestion from anyone out there in blog-land because I am always, every single day, amazed at the the creativity that abounds everywhere!
Please help me to open my mind and give this truly magickal sanctuary a name that it deserves.
Thank you all in advance for all the amazing names that I know you will provide!!

Ahhhhh.............Spring!
Does anything in Life truly compare to that refreshing awakening feeling of the first days of Spring?
New Love probably comes the closest that I know of, but that does not seem to renew each and every year quite like the blossoms of Spring.
A powerful elixir that we would all consume without abandon if it were within our reach! So for my first day of Spring 2012, I am happy to share some pics of my every-day, marvelously, magickal life.
Kinda funny that some of my co-workers think I lead a very simple, boring mundane life. Show's what they know. If they had any idea.......oh, the gossip that would ensue!

A fantastic e-bay find. Of course. the pic looks just like theirs-mis-leading. It is only 2" tall, but what a beauty! I believe that all the photos are taken by men, on male-enhancement aid... |
So, my dear Hubby says, hey I made a coaster for your wine glass! I say to dear Hubby, is that a hint about the amount of wine I consume? Dear Hubby replies, just saying honey...... |
The "Witch's Cottage" just needs a roof and some sealer from the weather and we are good to go. |
A Spring Solstice Poem.....
A full moon ushers in...
The Spring Solstice,
About to begin.
Wear your best finery...
Open sweet wine
Draw down the moon
Make happiness mine
Dance in the moon light
Light a candle of faith
Greet every spirit
Here in this place
Work your high magick
and know all is well
With the weaving
and wonderment
Of this Spring Solstice spell
So mote it be...

A SUNNY SUNDAY MORNING WALK
A visit from woodpecker spirit. He is one big amazing bird, that I hope one day to get a pic of him! |
One of my favorite old trees in magickland. Notice the blur of red, upper left hand corner. Maybe I captured some of it's spirit! |
Black & White A different perspective on the "spirit" image. |

The Witch's Cottage
The witch's cottage is really just a shed, but the important part is that it is my very own, private, in the woods shed. A place I anticipate spending many magickal hours in. Reading, making art, day-dreaming and manifesting more dreams.
My wonderful, talented Hubby came up with the idea to re-cycle a deck that we had torn down. So he moved it to my chosen spot, added a few more new boards, and this will be the foundation for the shed. We purchased a kit, pics below, so it should be up in no time. It's going to be a glorious Summer!

This is what the finished kit "should" look like. |
the interior, small but cozy |
Okay, it really is small, (only 10' x 10'), But big on charm. I am going to invite enchantment in! |
THE DREAM IS BECOMING REALITY

ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
Today was one of those days where you "just know" that everything is right and anything is possible.
The woods are all misty-eyed because Spring is so close at hand.
Your dreams send Ravens out to your soul friend to say.......
"Hello, the magick is yours for the taking and the sharing".
You question yourself and wonder how you lived all those years being so un-aware of the real mystery and beauty that is right there every single moment?
When you awake to see the garden of enchantment, you are never the same. It is the compounding of these miniscule moments upon moments that create the vision you have today.
