Samhain & Hallows Eve: Connecting with our Spirit Crew

Samhain is almost here! It is said that the veil between worlds is the thinnest during Samhain, making it is easier to connect beings on the other side. Do you know your spirit crew yet? Everyone has guides and ancestors on the other side wanting to help and support you on your journey, some may be ancestors you are not even aware of, or other spiritual, cosmic and innerdimensional beings that are waiting to meet you half way! ⁠

Are you ready to connect with your ancestors and other guiding spirits? If you're not sure, we've made the perfect Ritual Kit to help you travel through the veil in a safe and protected way. ⁠Shop our Samhain & Hallows Eve Ritual Kit HERE and see below for some ritual inspo!

• Find a sacred space in which you will not be bothered for at least 30 minutes. ⁠
• Have all of the tools from the Ritual Kit near you, plus some salt and a dagger or athame. ⁠
• Sprinkle a protective salt circle around you.⁠
• Trace the circle with your athame or dagger to banish any negative entities from your workspace, and seal your circle of protection. ⁠
• Light the Violet candle for grounding and opening of the Crown Chakra. ⁠
• Next the black candle for protection and banishing negativity, and absorbing and dark energy which may sneak in. ⁠
• Anoint your wrists, souls of feet, third eye, and temples with Frankincense essential oil, used for spiritual connection, protection, and exorcism of negativity or evil.⁠
• Keep the Moss Agate, Honey Calcite, and Quartz nearby for amplification of your ritual, for grounding, spiritual communication, and releasing negative karma.⁠
• Light the mini cedar bouquet for protection, luck, and purification and spread smoke w/ Turkey Feather.⁠ When doing this envision these things happening to you. Consider different scenarios where you are protected and purified. After you feel comfortable with this, move on to the next step.
• Light Holy palo santo wood to connect to your ancestral and spiritual family trees.⁠ Close your eyes and ask any guiding spirits or ancestors to come peacefully into your awareness. You may see them, sense them, or hear them. There may also be a smell associated with them: where they lived for instance, or of a food they loved or perfume they wore. Be patient, and the messages will come. If you only get clues you may have to repeat the process several times to get a more clear connection. Don't get discouraged- all good magick takes time and continued effort! ⁠
• When you're done, purify the space with California white sage stick.⁠ 

Repeat this process as necessary. Any time is a good time to connect with your guides, not just Samhain!

Engaging the Elements: Earth

May 10, 2021 0 Comments

Do you ever stop to think about what the Earth is actually made of? We walk on it every day, eat food that’s grown on it, vacuum the crumbles on the rug that lies on it, and unless you’re a gardener or a child, we probably don’t touch it very often. But the Earth and ground we live, eat, sleep, and walk on is very important- from microscopic rocks like dirt and sand, and tiny living organisms like worms and bacteria, to giant redwood trees and mountains, the Earth and her gravity is what keeps us from flailing into the chaos of outer space, literally grounding and protecting us from the unknown. Let's look deeper…
