KITCHENCUPBOARD MAGICK - HERBAL BATH SATCHETS

Merry Meet to All!

You don't need to buy expensive and exotic ingredients to add a little bit of natural magic and holistic approach to your lifestyle.
Just have a good look in your kitchen cupboard (and garden, if you have one) and you'd be amazed what you can do with the 'everyday things' in there.

Here, for example, is a really nice recipe for herbal bath sachets, which are very simple to make and will give you an invigorating, 100% natural bath experience, which puts the spring back in your step.

All you need is:

4 cups of dried lemon verbenna *
2 cups of dried thyme
1 cup of dried peppermint
fabric, like muslin or organdie, which can be easily penetrated by water

*lemon verbenna is a common garden herb (see picture), but if you can't get hold of it, you can use dried lemon rind

Take to needle and threat and make little sachets of the fabric, which you fill with the herbs - that's all there's to it!

When running a bath, hold the sachets under the tab or simply float in the water. A filled sachet can be used twice, and the sachets themselves can be refilled with fresh herbs again and again.

Enjoy!

Summer Blessings,

A Magical Moment

Merry Meet to All of You!

Yesterday I put a post up, inviting you to take part in a Vigil to the Dark Moon, if you so wished.

Well, me and my friend Idun went to a very special place for our contemplation, a truly magical, peaceful clearing with a magnificent ancient oak tree (see picture of the tree above).

Having the Vigil there, feeling the energies of nature and the spirit of the tree around us was a truly soul-expanding and connective expierence from which we both returned energized and cleansed.

I wish for everyone who took part in the Vigil to have felt the same peace and emergence of positivity and hope.

As the New Moon is upon us, may all your wishes and visulisations come true and may the Dark Mother guide you in your quest, whatever it may be.

New Moon Blessings and Love,

Ilona
