Rusty Cauldron

The years have rolled on, the moon has risen and set over our heads often.
But I stand here in the circle we created, and send blessings to all who have walked here.
As the darkness turns to light may each heart be lifted,
May the Lady and Lord be with you always
In their love
Helen

I have been absent, I am sorry. Each persons path has times of solitude and withdrawal. But as each person leaves a trace as they pass, so may my footsteps bless those who follow, as I have been blessed by folks who walked this path before me, and left such a treasure of knowledge, wisdom and love. ...

I use a combination of an A4 ring bound notebook and a ring binder, and coming to the end of my latest book has me re-reading the older books today. I wrote some very insightful stuff, right from the beginning of my journey - although I didn't always know it at the time :) I stapled in pictures, pho...

The "old grump" bit made me laugh :) I wouldn't want to join a huge gathering either, apart from anything else I would feel stressed by all the different energies and expectations of the crowd. So if I was energy working or simply celebrating, then a small group such as you describe sounds...

The Wheel keeps turning, and now it's 2015. May the Lady and the Lord bless you, wherever on the earth's surface you stand today. I was awake before sunrise, leaning out of my window to listen to the cuckoo calling in the woods. To all those who walk the walk, and have walked the path before me. Ble...

The Wheel has swung another turn through time and space, and the strong green energy of Beltane is here again. If you've been experiencing a fallow time, now is the chance to catch hold of the rising, fertilising energy of the green and dance out into the sunshine to create a new page. May all be bl...

Blessings to all this day! Where I am the weather has been strange, things growing at the 'wrong' times, cold and wet in the summer, mild in the winter, all sorts like that. But still I have snowdrops today, and bird song, and I bless the Lady and the Lord as I light a white candle on my outdoor alt...

Self-burning Juniper incense cones Just to give you an idea of what these recipes look like, here was my first attempt at a self-buring incense. I wanted to use juniper, it's main property being 'protection' according to Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs, where he also writes it may have b...

So, just a little bit to start with about making self-burning incense. That's the cones and sticks you make yourself which stay alight once lit, rather than needing a charcoal block under them. The key to these is that they must contain an ingredient which is sticky during the making process, to bi...

Hi Bluebell. The only supplier I have used regurlarly in the UK is 'Starchild' in Glastonbury. They have a shop in the courtyard behind Courtyard Books, below the Goddess temple (not sure if you've been there and know where I mean, so hope that will help you find them) They do some nice candles in ...
