Magical Monday - Tuesday Edition

Image
Magical Monday 3 Card Spread -  Mind, Body, Spirit  Mind: Four of Vessels: Boredom - The universe responds favourably to a decisive, forward momentum, while boredom leaves a person in a state of inaction. There are many reasons for feeling disenchanted or trapped in life. The causes of the malaise and the feeling of being weathered by routine or beaten down by conflict are common, but in the end it is from ourselves that the first sparks of momentum must emanate. But if you ask a question of the universe, the universe will answer. Nature abhors a vacuum and it will throw so many opportunities into your path that your head will spin. All you have to do is recognize and acknowledge the proffered doorways, and step through them. Challenge should not be feared; opportunity should be grasped and utilized to its natural limit.  Body : Five of Vessels: Ecstasy - Many avenues are open to the Wanderer to commune intimately and ecstatically with great beauty

Magical Monday Rune(s) of the Week: Ansuz: The As: Odin - This rune signifies a revealing message or insight, communication. Signals, inspiration, enthusiasm, speech, true vision, power of words and naming and receiving blessings, the taking of advice. Good health, harmony, truth, wisdom.  Everything you encounter has a message for you; learn from your environment. You are being called to acknowledge a powerful lesson, be prepared to let go of your preconceptions.  Tarot Card(s) of the week: I actually drew the totem animal of the week card first, and drew The Lynx. I then picked up the Wildwood Tarot to start shuffling for the three card draw, and a card popped out of the deck. When I turned it over, there was the Lynx again. Hmm...apparently Lynx has an important message for me this week. Here is the Wildwood meaning for Lynx - Page of Stones: Pay attention to the physical realm, and be aware of the effects gen

This was a fairly normal week. We didn't do any fun events, or go anywhere exciting, but it was very much a week in my life. Friday, September 9, 2016 : Had my first Starbucks in a couple of months, and a salad from BJ's Brewhouse for lunch. Later went out to dinner to celebrate my Father-in-law's birthday, then spent some time at my brother and sister-in-law's house. Saturday, September 10, 2016: Out for a bit in the morning to meet my mother's kitten, Dori. Then College Football for longer than we anticipated due to a rain delay.  Sunday, September 11, 2017: Had pumpkin pancakes with spiced apples for breakfast at Tommy's Diner. Then took a long walk on the scioto mile.  Monday, September 13, 2016: REWARD DAY!! Got another Lush Bath Bomb, this time Guardian of the Forest. So pretty.  Tuesday, September 13, 2016:  Just to share, this is a picture of the little birdhouse in my (Kia) Soul Wednesday, September

I was missing sharing my sometimes strange/ sometimes boring life with everyone, so I am reviving Foto Fridays.  Yep, I spell photo wrong to force the alliteration, deal with it. This will be a photo/foto look at my week. I hope you enjoy. Friday, September 2, 2016: Went with my husband, mother and sister to the Millersport Sweet Corn Festival. We ate 12 ears of corn (3 each) in roughly 10 minutes. I got the most delicious pumpkin donuts I have ever tasted. I also got a splinter in my thigh sliding across a bench, ouch. We also watched cloggers. Saturday, September 3, 2016: Channeling American Horror Story - Coven while attending a birthday party for my niece Moira (8) and my nephew Gideon (2). I assure you my shirt says WITCH. Sunday, September 4, 2016: First trip to the Renaissance Festival. Got a new bodice compliments of my mother after mine popped its boning in the parking lot. Bought some amazing tea, hairsticks, the most adorable gargoyle type guy, and some
