Sounds like you have been finding the the antidote to help heal and relax witch. I am glad cause in this busy world it can be a challenge! I am trying to calm this monkey mind of mine too! Lol
For my third challenge I am actually waiting for the New Moon since I need to make some really important decisions. I decided to do some candle magic for the challenge Light-em-up
I used the candle magic book by Ray Buckland for advanced candle magic
I dressed my candle, and I wrote courage on it, and I anointed my oil with some olive oil. When I dressed my candle hi inscribed courage, to help me with a decision that needs to be made so what I did was placed a mirror and three pieces of paper with some choices. I wrote the pros and the cons in my Boās! Tonight I am going to do a meditation and contemplate on my choices.
I really think itās important to make wise decisions and find out what I can do and really make a conscious effort to make wise decisions! I will light my candles on the new moon and chant!

@Jeannie1 thank you for your kind words. Itās definitely been a journey & something that I learned, albeit it took me the long way around, to be able to step back & find the best ways to heal & rest when I need to do so. You will get there. I also need to be able to stop & think to make wise or wiser decisions sometimes. I have faith that you will get there & reach your goals too!
Everyone did a great job on their entries & Iām sorry if I couldnāt respond to each one, there were so many great ones!
I love these! I like how you pin them to your bed rather than hang them over your bed. Theyāre cute!
These are really beautiful stones whatās the one next to the yellow ā the green one with speckles in it? Iām really drawn to that one lol
Yup! Just about everyone has used some sort of symbol like the pentagram, I believe. Itās interesting to see how a symbol that Christians once used is now demonized by the same people!
I think you did a wonderful job, Alan! Welcome to the forum and great job on your first challenge entry! I really enjoy the little ritual you have with the runes and the oil. Itās similar to something I do with my set of ogham stones. Thank you for sharing!
That makes sense thanks for sharing! I hope your cream does exactly what you need it to
I mean, do we really know exactly why we do certain things? I for sure donāt!
I need to make use of my diffuser more youāre inspiring me!
I think youāre absolutely right I love the spell you put together! Hereās many wishes to you for making good decisions
Oh, thatās good , it seems to be a recurring theme Glad I can be some help! It works for me & I really do notice a difference between when Iām using them & when Iām not using them or not using them as often.
I think the one youāre drawn to is the ruby zoisite I googled its properties for you. You get a double fix with this stone LOL
Ruby in Zoisite offers the energy of happiness, appreciation, abundance, vitality and growth . It is felt to stimulate the heart by helping one to open up to divine love. Zoisite may help to alleviate grief, anger, despair and defeat.
Soifra- Strega,
Honestly itās been hard for me to step back but I wanted to share with everyone and you too of course! I am going to Oregon and traveling 12 hours away from home
So I am excited I just got a rental car and I am out on a adventure! Weāre going to see the a beautiful scenery and landscape.
I will be able to give more to you all because I am taking better care of my priorities! Itās been a long time since me and my husband got a break! So I willing send you a pic when we get there!
I am so glad youāre getting the quality rest that your body needs to heal! I am sending you some magic to help you recover and its a warm hug from your witchy friend on the forum! I need to do my meditation bye for know!

Since quoting your whole entry @Jeannie1 would be a bit overkill I just wanted to say thank you & I really appreciate the continued love & healing support each day!
Iām very happy for you & your husband to be able to take a break together & that you are taking better care of your priorities. I have been doing or at least trying my best to do the same. Itās been a tough thing for me to learn that if something doesnāt get done, itās ultimately okay. I am one person & can only do so much. Especially during healing & making sure that I get myself taken care of also.
I hope you have a safe trip & get to enjoy the time together with the beautiful scenery & landscape! Iāve heard that there are some amazing places to go & enjoy this time of year. Have a great time & stay safe, I will keep you in my thoughts & daily healingā¦ if you donāt mind, I would love to add you to my healing & support book that I have for distance support.
I just canāt use my diffuser when my mom is home because sheās allergic to most essential oils Iāve got one in my room but I donāt really spend a lot of time in there during the day. Iāll figure out a time to use it though!
Omg That definitely sounds like something I could use in my daily life I wonder if I can find some here close to me Iāll have to keep an eye out for it the next time I go to my local store!
Its a pretty common stone but if you canāt find one local Cold Brew Crystals on Etsy might have some. She has a sale going on right now. I know there are some members that have stores too But you know that!
