Halloween Ideas

Accentuate the Positive - Halloween in Olden Times was a positive and happy occasion. Spirits were easier to talk to and often departed friends and relatives were invited to dinner. This gave everyone a chance to catch up on news and unfinished business. This was a releasing technique as well as an acceptance of other realms. If there was something that you felt you wanted to say to a departed person, Halloween was a perfect opportunity to do so.

Pumpkins, Candles and Lanterns were lit to guide the Spirits into the homes rather than being a method of trying to drive them away. Doors were left open and favored meals were prepared in hopes that the Spirits would visit. Make Your Jack-O-Lanterns friendly and create a spirit of positive awakening during this Season. Do not buy into the "Fear Mongers" who want everyone to fear everything. Happiness, Joy and Love bring Positive Spirits and Vibrations into your life.

Check out My Pet Tip on The Pet Counselor for helping your pets through this wonderful, yet confusing Holiday.

In Love? Try this Egyptian Love Potion!
To be taken by the light of the Full Moon!
1 pint pure spring water ******** 1 ounce licorice root
1 ounce sesame seed, mashed *** 1 ounce fennel seed, bruised
1/2 cup raw honey ************ 1/2 cup yummy red wine, add after cold
Place all ingredients in a non-metal pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off heat and infuse until cold. Strain.
Take 1/2 ounce of this Potion as you stand in the light of the Full Moon, with a strand of your Lover's hair wrapped around your fingers and speak these Magick Words:
"I possess a burning love for ________ whose lock of hair I hold. Let _______ see my love as good and joyful and let my Spirit reveal itself clearly to (him/her). Bring the Magick of the Moon into my Realm and let it's Magick Glow show ______ the way to me, if (he/she) so chooses to do so. Let this or something just as wonderful happen. So Mote It Be!

Take the rest of this potion 1/2 ounce 2 times per day until it is gone. Magick Happens! Plus it also enriches your blood and clears your glands.

Remember, spells are used to manipulate events, not people. Rather than trying to "trap" a mate - your best work will evolve by manipulating events to bring the truest and best love into your life. You open a silver pathway to joy and happiness by always making free will a part of your spell.


JUST WONDERING??? Do Witches use "Spell" Checkers???

The Wheel is turning and Mother Earth is beginning to feel the effects of the Majik of Autumn. She is looking to the sky, seeing the leaves on the trees beginning to change, reflecting the time to turn inward spiritually. The light is waning and dark comes sooner, cool breezes and the clouds bring welcome relief from the heat of Summer. Small messages, like leaves turning, geese heading South, the appearance of corn and pumpkins on porches let us know the Wheel is in motion and Autumn is arriving.

Harvest is here, enjoy this wonderful season of change. Our Halloween Party will be on the 26th this year. Friends, family and new friends will gather together for a delightful celebration of the season. We will play games such as, Ghost Pitch, Pumpkin Bowling, Monster Chess, Bewitched and we will have a Cackle Contest, a Halloween Carols Sing Along, tell Ghost Stories and Celebrated in our Majik Circle. Coyotes from near-bye often enter into our chanting and wishes for a World of Peace and Happiness. Our Scarecrow will stand in the garden with Fall weeds clutched in her hand. It will be a Majik Night for all. Life is good! Even now at this unsettling time we can reach out and touch each other with a kind word, a loving heart, a caring, hopeful mind and wish for the Leaders of our World to bring about the peace and prosperity. To take the time and effort to bring the troubled parts of our world into the positive and gentle vibrations of love and caring.

Everyone needs time to relieve stress and let the child inside out to play and laugh. Each day is a gift and we need time to enjoy the "Present". Roll in Autumn leaves, dance barefoot in the moonlight, accept the gift of life and Harvest, release all negativity, find pictures in the clouds. Hug a tree, have a meaningful discussion with a cat, dog, or a bird. Have dinner by candlelight, talk to the flowers and the bubbling brook, then listen to what they have to say to you, feed the birds, hummingbirds and chipmunks, Celebrate! Life is!

How we feel about each Season makes a difference. Spirit and Vibrational levels are extremely important as we dance the Wheel of the Year through the Majick of the Seasons. We need to be aware of how important our thoughts, our acts and our feelings are, to ourselves, our friends and families and the Universe as a whole. Accentuate the Positive - Eliminate the Negative! How you "feel" about the Morning, the Day, the Moment, the Book - is like a ripple that is felt around the Universe. If your are angry, fearful or down, the Universe feels it - If you are happy, successful and up, the Universe feels that too! How do you feel at this moment? When did you last laugh so hard you cried? When did you last make a Jack-O-Lantern, or play tag in the moonlight and scream for joy? Or lay in a forest and look up at the changing leaves or run down a hill in Autumn?
Share your gifts, give hope, care about someone, Be Happy! Add a Positive ripple to the Universe!


Majik is a marvelous tool for self-transformation, empowerment and overcoming fears.
The first commandment of Wiccan Majik is "Harm None!"

What you do comes back to you at least three-fold, sometimes more, so doing positive majik works wonders
for others and reflects back to you even stronger.

Witchcraft or Positive Majik means projecting your own personal power and natural energies to create change.
You see, energy exists everywhere, in people, animals, plants, rocks, the air, water, fire
in the Earth itself. Remember to listen to feed-back from those who want you to be successful, It's Majickal!

It is important to stand by your beliefs without pushing them on others. Love and learn and let others follow their paths of learning too. Really care about our planet and all that exists. And when you care, you find you try to understand someone who has different views, you walk a path and shine a light and if they care to join you that is fine, if not, it doesn't mean they are bad or not a friend, only that they are different, and often differences help us to see another point of view. Besides, if we were all the same this would be a very boring world! Enjoy what is different about yourself and others. Learn to celebrate the differences in our beautiful, majikal world.

Sharing is so much fun. It's fun and rewarding to be different, it is so delightful to be in the midst of free-flowing ideas with family and friends who share their dreams. We live in a really majick place. Enjoy!

The Majick of Libra

The Sun enters Libra on September 22nd and leaves on the 23rd of October. Libra people are Venus powered. Libra conjures up an artistic image of a warm, peaceful, airy Utopian World composed of goodwill, good acts and ruled by fair and loving creatures. In theory, Libra belongs to that most Ideal place, the perfect world. Now being the astute mental Air Sign that you Librans are, you noted that I said "In theory". Your intelligence grasps concepts and broad aspects that elude others. You are discriminating and rarely do you get caught up in the mundane, petty, peeves others around you do. They fuss and complain, argue and fight. You have methods of handling situations also, the scales of justice, honesty, fairness. You try to understand, balance, calm and protect.

Sometimes what you are balancing isn't always clear to those around you. Perhaps you are carefully weighing all the positive possibilities and theories versus the all too real realities that you have experienced. In any event, once you finally determine what you will do, you will stick to it come Hell or High Water, unless another reasonable possibility is offered in a calm manner.

You enjoy using your artistic talents and talking about art with those who truly know art. Advanced ideas please you if they are well thought out and good conversation makes you happy. When beauty and harmony are strongly in evidence in your environment, you glow with a happy light. You love being consulted on matters and are good at settling disputes among friends very amicably.

You need love and a lifemate who brings the gift of practical use into your life and gives you the opportunity to make use of your talents, otherwise, you might be too inactive and dream your life away. Real happiness is achieved through using your mind and talents actively where the results can be of service and appreciated. Never bury or hide your talents Libra.


Libra - The Mistress of sparkling conversation, brilliant writings and spirited debate. The darling with all that verbal panache, is, however, a little lost soul without a loving mate to hold her hand. Born to be mated, never quite happy until you find your other half, for you are the cuddly, communicative, loving Libran.

You are an Air Sign, brilliant, careful, good at mental work. You are great at written communication. You think, systemize, balance and analyze. You are a genius at coping with others. You can reconcile rattlesnakes if necessary, but keeping order is not your style, you are too airy to be controlled and exacting.


Libra souls are pure light - Caring with a capital "C"! They reside in the 7th House of marriage and partnerships. Harmony is their dream and hope.


Quality shows the way the sign's energy flows - Libras Quality is Cardinal.
Cardinal energy works in a leadership manner.

Positive qualities of Cardinal signs are: Activity, doing, outgoing, alert, enterprising. You are intelligent and open minded.

Negative qualities are: tendency toward being indecisive, restlessness, starting but not finishing things.


Gender is often misunderstood in Astrology. Feminine means the energy is receptive, magnetic, emotional and circular. Masculine means the energy is aggressive, raditory, objective and linear. Libra Gender is Masculine yet as a balance Libra is Magnetic, pulling everything inside. Librans want harmony and balance. Their job is to restore balance, create harmony, and cooperate. No sign is more charming, social, and more able to coax the same out of others.


Libra Element is Air. Air is creative, intellectual, communicative, reasoning, quick-minded, idealistic, cooperative and uniting. Air people inspire a feeling of lightness, elusiveness, change. The picture it brings is one of learning, knowing, dreaming, changing.



The Majick of Scorpio

The Sun entered Scorpio on October 23rd and leaves on the 22nd of November. Scorpio people are Mars & Pluto powered. Scorpio is truly the Power Monger and a very volatile sign. Scorpio can be invisible yet extremely forceful. The secret, sexy Scorpio has an insatiable desire for knowledge of all kinds. Metaphysics and astrology are natural places to find Scorpios. Pluto is to be a dark and strange planet and certainly Scorpio people retain a facination with things dark and strange. Pluto distracts observers from seeing all that you really are Scorpio, which keeps you shrouded in that mysterious cloud, the powerful, sexy, spy. Intensity is your middle name!

Scorpios can be very bossy and easily slip into the role of "Leader" due to their need to control. Scorpio, you are intense, secretive, sexy and ambitious.

Scorpios are a Water Sign, emotional, magnetic, deep and very intuitive. You are great at protecting that which you feel needs protecting. You are a dangerous enemy and a powerful ally.

Scorpio people are usually nocturnal - mysterious occult forces influence and develop around them. A feminine, fixed water sign brings cold, moist, melancholy qualities to form intense, secret, passionate and relentless personality patterns.

Quality shows the way the sign's energy flows - Scorpios Quality is Fixed.
Fixed energy works in a stable, grounded, controlled manner.

Positive qualities of fixed signs are: strong beliefs, dependable, practical, determined.

Negative qualities are: tendency toward self-indulgence, stubborn, tend to be controlling.

Gender is often misunderstood in Astrology. Feminine means the energy is receptive, magnetic, emotional and circular. Masculine means the energy is aggressive, raditory, objective and linear. Scorpio Gender is Feminine. Scorpio is Magnetic, pulling everything inside. Scorpios want to be liked and have friends who value them.

Scorpio Element is Water. Water signs are sensitive, emotional, reflective, protective, inspirational, prudent and have fore- sight. Water can fill any vessel and take that form, so water signs can fit in. Water also brings emotional upset, too much sensitivity, fear, distrust and timidity.

These are only a few of the lovely herbs our Earth generously offers us. We can learn so much about the herbs and their majickal properties for there are many wonderful books available. Go to your favorite bookstore or library and discover the Majick of Herbs.

PSYCHIC INSTINCTS! How can we learn the Majikal Mysteries of Invoking Our Personal Power? Ask yourself - Who am I? Who do I want to become? Find your spark, that which energizes you and gets you feeling good. Begin to manifest yourself into the Universe.

Remember - Have FUN doing this, because being really happy and feeling good about you and what you are doing is an important part of your power!

Take a walk outside during this majikal changing of the seasons, get out in nature if possible, go where the wild things are and see if you can contact the majik there. All living things communicate. If we are aware and lucky, we may find something willing to communicate with us. Usually animals are easier to communicate with than rocks or trees. But all things will share their knowledge if you are of a gentle, open nature.

Mother Earth offers so many paths to follow. Each path can bring new learning and joy to us. A nature walk can develop into a sacred pathway to understanding if you are open to the gifts that are available along the way. A Nature Walk can enrich your life, bring you in contact with power animals, their special messages as well as glimpses into the magic world where you begin to understand your value and role in the Great Mystery of the Universe.

How do we get started? First, get to know yourself. What is your primary response pattern? Pretend we are going on a majik journey to the Ocean in San Diego. ***** STOP! What did you do? Did you picture the waves?
Did you hear the ocean waves crashing on the shore and hear the calls of sea gulls?
Or did you feel the ocean breese, the sand beneath your feet?
You responded to one of those methods first. Which one?
If you visualized first then your primary response is visual.
If you heard the sounds first, then you are primarily an auditory person.
If you felt the sand and the breese then you are a physical or kinetic person first.

Why does it matter? Once you learn what your main method of response is, then you can work on using the other methods so you will have a wider range of communication skills. This will help you understand others, including animals.

Try this exercise:
1. Learn to accept new and different viewpoints.
2. Learn to absorb vibrations, feelings, energy.
3. Try to imagine seeing through another's eyes, with their emotions, their abilities, their spiritual values.
4. Now try to do the same thing with an animal, a bird, a fish, an insect!

If you are lucky enough to be able to get out for a real Nature Walk, do so. Take enough necessities so that you won't need to hurry back. A few hours can work wonders. But what if you cannot get out into a nature setting right now? Thats OK! Mother Earth provides opportuntites to contact and communicate with animals everywhere. Go for a walk, Look out the window, Find your dog or cat, close your eyes and relax. Ask for a message and accept the answer. A feather floats down, a lizard runs past, you open your eyes and there, looking at you, is your cat and you know what she is telling you. You hear a call and know it is the call of a peacock. You begin to understand the language. Or perhaps you think you hear a tree, a rose or a tiny flit of something, you are not sure what, perhaps it was a spider, a hummingbird, or was it an elf or gnome? Begin keeping a message diary.
Whatever happens is just the beginning of a wonderful adventure.

Learn more of the creature or Spirit you have encountered. What is the lesson or understanding that you have been given. Study the source. There are many ways to begin this majickal journey, a candle, a dream, all is Majik! One very easy way to go on this adventure is to buy the Medicine Cards and the book that goes with them, written by Jamie Sams and David Carson, published by Bear & Company, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. They provide the Animal Cards and stories, teachings and insights.

However you manage to begin this majickal journey, you will be delighted at all you can learn and how that learning empowers you. And please remember, you are not limited to one or two or even 100 adventures of this kind. There is always more to learn and new ways of discovering things. There isn't an animal or creation of any sort that cannot bring us the gift of learning and insight if we are willing to accept the adventure of learning awareness. Try a Nature Walk or new pathway and Email me about what you discovered.


Practice and nurture your Psychic Instincts.
