Incense and Tea

Sandalwood is a useful scent. Sandalwood is known for Protection, Wishes, Healing, Exorcism, Spirituality, Relaxation and Centering. To me it is slightly heady but it also makes me want to say OMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. Hah, also I never thought I'd be a Tea drinker.I found yummy ones I love green white and red teas,I'm picky about black and herbal teas.

Summer's wane,Autumn's breath

Summer's wane is fast approaching, Autumn comes lazily on the tailcoats of summer storms. Mabon will be here soon apples and pumpkins will be plentiful. As dull green leaves change to brightly colored leaves smiles shall be found remembering that the wheel will turn and Samhain will be here soon. I know Autumn is one of my favorite seasons where there is an obvious change,we begin to slow down and marvel at nature making herself known.We laugh at squirrels running amok and chipmunks stuffing already too full cheeks we begin to crave the closeness of family and friends and everyday is an excuse for a feast. We don't know it but we are preparing for Winter just like all of Nature's children,a time when family and merriment are needed to drive the winter away when the solitude becomes too much. Winter has it's uses too as a blanket for her so she may rest and to give us signs of the coming spring.
