~*Herbal Bath Teas*~

These are very strong "teas" that you add to your bath. So much of the commercial bath products we buy are very harsh on our skin, personally speaking I have very sensitive skin and have bad allergic reactions to most products out there. I have gone to using things that are as natural as I can get so recipes like this are helpful and I have found are so easy to make.

 You can once you get used to making such recipes experiment with combinations as long as you follow the basic recipe on the amounts. If you are allergic to plants of any type do be cautious, but seeing as you also are not ingesting the tea you might be okay keeping with the guidelines but there are always other herbs you can use to substitute.

Skin Soothing Bath Tea

You will need:

2 tablespoons dried thyme

2 tablespoons dried calendula blossoms

2 tablespoon dried chamomile blooms

1 quart boiling water

Add the herbs to the boiling water and steep for 10-15 minutes. Strain the infusion and add to your bathwater. NOTES: You can use just chamomile and double the amount.

Amulets

Hello all!

 It took me much longer then I thought to get this ball rolling but life does seem to happen and gives one little time to recover or settle down before the next thing comes around. Though I think I am now to the point where I can now put all the research and writing I have been doing over the last year to work for me, which is such a nice feeling. As always I hope you all enjoy and find some useful information.

This time around I am going to try some new layouts and themes then I did before. Change things up a bit and have fun with it, but as always provide some amazing information for my readers. 

 

Amulets

This week I want to look at amulets. We all seem to have at least one item that we carry around or wear that falls into this definition and many know very little about what it is their amulet can do for them. An amulet is a magically charged object you wear or carry which deflects against negative energies and attracts good energies. It is a close relative of a talisman which means "to initiate into the mysteries” consists of any object intended to bring good luck and/or protection to its owner. Examples of amulets would be a generally small item made of natural materials such as stone, wood, shell, hair, bone gem and so on.

Here is a sample list of what can be made into an amulet along with the magickal meaning.

Amethyst: Power, peace, protection, spirituality, intelligence, luck, psychic power, true love.

Animal Shapes: Amulets made from any material representing the shapes of animals. They are supposed to give the wearer the desirable qualities of the animal.
