Christmas Tree

In Europe, Pagans in the past did not cut down evergreen trees, bring them into their homes and decorate them. That would have been far too destructive of nature. But during the Roman celebration of the feast of Saturnalia, Pagans did decorate their houses with clippings of evergreen shrubs. They also decorated living trees with bits of metal and replicas of their God, Bacchus.

Yule


The Winter Solstice season is all about light and faith. Faith that the Sun and warmth will return to the land, and hope in humanity. In this season of celebration and light, consider the Greek god of Sun, Apollo, a solar deity associated with music, poetry, illumination, knowledge and prophecy. Apollo challenges you with the message inscibed at his temple in Delphi: "Know thyself." Be true to yourself. Dare to follow your path and to challenge yourself to learn and to grow. The use your will and create a positive change. Accomplish your personal and magickal goals, not only for yourself but for the loved ones in your life.

Purple Passion Agate Necklace



Agate is a balance stone to use in most rituals. Agate will focus your concentration during a ritual. Agate is a powerful protection stone also,especially for children. Never tell a lie in a room with an agate, as the lie will come back on you. Soak an agate in lily of the valley oil for 3 hours, pat it dry and give it to someone you suspect of not telling the truth. The person will feel compelled to tell the truth. Agates come in almost every color.
This purple passion agate slice necklace is on an 18" silvertone neckwire. The pretty purple agate slice is 3" by 1 1/2" wide.

Scrying Chain Clear and Pink Crystal

Scrying Chain is 10 1/2" in length made with pink and clear crystals.
To scrye is to divine ... something. Dowsers will use a a forked branch to try and detect the presence of undeground water, as one example. Pendulum scrying is probably most familiar when the wedding ring of a pregnant woman is suspended from a chain and dangled over the unborn child to determine if it will be a boy or a girl.
One of the most widely practiced method of pendula scrying is to suspend a crystal from a chain for general divination purposes in order to gain a "yes" or "no" answer to a simple question. It is important that the diviner first determine the direction which eventually mean a "yes" answer and which will mean a "no." Eventually the pendula will either swing back and forth (this could be "yes") or it will swing up and back (this would then be "no"). The person holding the pendulum must make a sincere effort to hold it as perfectly still as humanly possible, in the center. Very faint movements will, however, ultimately show the answer.

Good Luck Fish!

Goldfish in Feng Shui are seen to be creators of good luck and positive outcomes in new endeavours and in particular matters of business. In Chinese the word “yu” can mean fish but also means success. So keeping fish or having an ornament or product with a fish or goldfish on it in the Feng Shui tradition is a means of attracting prosperity. As a goldfish is also beautiful it is also seen to bless us and our environment with beauty through its colours. The fish brings the natural world (through being an animal and living in water) into our home or work environment. Dragons in Feng Shui and Chinese culture represent luck, wisdom and power and goldfish are often seen to represent baby dragons. So in that way they also bring luck.    
Get this keychain for some good luck!

Multi-colored mosaic Mother of Pearl and resin necklace


Multi-colored mosaic Mother of Pearl and resin beads dangle from a silver plated open link chain, with a mosaic Mother of Pearl and resin focal bead. The necklace is 24" in length with a silver plated toggle clasp. The focal bead is 2 1/2" including the silver plated bail. The wonderful mixture of pastel colors are great for your Easter outfits.

Mother of Pearl is the smooth lining of iridescent luster found in some mollusk shells such as oyster, abolone, mussel and paua shells. Since it is created by a living organism, enviromental factors are a crucial part in it's formation. They are susceptible to changes in external conditions because they cannot regulate their body temperature. It comes in a wide variety of colors because it derives its color from the environment in which it grows.

Legends say that Mother of Pearl was placed on a newborn baby to provide protection. In more modern times it is said to bring wealth, money, and riches.
