Re: A Banishing Spell

I just made a face at the thought of using scat... I do like the idea of the paint thinner to "thin" the ties. Over all, I think the spell sounds very nice and reminds me of something that I've done before to banish my own bad habits. I'd just be sure to really focus on making sure that yo...

Re: In the broom closet

I wish I had better advice for explaining things to your husband so that you don't feel like you have to hide it. Things are tricky when relationships are involved. My husband knows about my practice, but the rest of my family is in the dark a bit. I have a living room altar that I keep up at all ti...

Re: Help! I seem to have a black thumb

Get on Pinterest and start pinning everything you can find! There are many expanded explanations of everything that SpiritTalker told you, but with pictures :)
Tomatoes are usually pretty easy "patio" plants to grow. I've also had pretty good luck with most peppers.

Re: just depressed (venting)

I know all too well the headache of dealing with financial issues... I'm so sorry that you are feeling so stressed and down. Sometimes it helps to vent to others. You need to go through the bad days to appreciate the good days. A quote that makes me laugh because it is oh so true: It will pass... It...

Ditto. I would say the exact same thing.

Re: Lacking in sense of smell

Also, some herbs really affect my allergies so burning them is a big no-go for me... in these cases I will substitute whatever crystals that also hold the same properties as the herb that I am wanting to use. Burning too much sage really messes up my breathing, so there will be times that I will lig...

Re: Lacking in sense of smell

I'm sure you could find other ways to feel connected to the herbs other than smell. Noticing texture, how it feels or tastes (if it is safe to consume), how is reacts to fire or water... noticing and appreciating these things may help.

Just my 2 cents :)
Blessings

Re: What was your first spell?

My first spell (besides the stupid things I did in high school aka weightloss, make me pretty, and so on) was a communication spell. I was in a weird turning point in my life and was suppose to be moving to CO to be with another guy to try out a relationship with him, but our communication had gotte...

You get me^^

I understand the feeling... but I think it is just my anxiety in my case.
I think firebird offered really good advice :)
