What are dreams? Sigmund Freud felt that dreams were the pictures of instinctual
forces, both sexual and aggressive forces, crying to be let out. Carl Jung believed
dreams were an expression of a symbolic language. He proposed that dreams
expressed collective racial unconscious memories and instincts shared by all people.

Ever hear the phrase "as above so below"? Ever have a day where everything you did
was a battle or a day when it seemed the universe was in your corner and you could do
no wrong? Well, maybe it was. When have days like that I check the stars and usually
find my experiences reflected there. My favorite astrological site is Susan Miller's
Astrology Zone. It's nice to check in and find auspicious energy ready to be tapped.
It often takes me a full day to write an effective spell and sometimes I'm stalled with
some elusive ingredient. One of my favorite sites is Mountain Rose Herbs for any hard
to find herb or essential oil.

Of all the senses, the senses of smell is often the sense considered least important.
Yet a scent has the power to set the mind reeling. Scent can affect your mood, your
memory, in fact, your entire sense of well-being. Scents have been casting their spells
for thousands of years. As early as 7000 BC, man used fragrant ointments from oils
and plants. The Greeks, Romans, Egyptians and Chinese all used essential oils not
only for bathing and perfume, but for healing as well.
The olfactory nerves are connected directly with your brain, where scent impulses
create instant memories and reaction. Feelings of peace, energy or good night's sleep
that scents can bring on are little short of miraculous. We can't help but respond to
comfort smells like apple cinnamon pie or be lifted by the invigorating scent of lemon,
lime or tangerine, or think of love with rose and vanilla.
The complicated world of scent is all around us casting its spell. One way to harness
this power is through the use of Essential oils. Essential oils are oils made from the
leaves and flowers of plants. You can buy bath products or home fragrances containing
the oils, or you can purchase the oils on their own. Each oil has its own, unique healing
properties. Once you know the benefits of each essential oil, you can use them to your
full advantage.
For example: Essential lavender oil has been traditionally used in France as a topical
application to heal minor burns and reduce scarring and to counteract insomnia,
anxiety, rheumatism, headaches, pains and as a regenerative and anti-aging
treatment. Essential oils change mood, in fact, affect your entire sense of well-being.
I try to incorporate the power of scent in my every day life.
Having company and you Want to make people smile and think of good times? Just
add a couple drops of cinnamon oil to a diffuser and light the candle, soon the room
will be filled with the cozy smell of holiday baking.
When I'm frazzled and need to lift my mood, one of the first steps I take is to light a
stick of Nag Champa. Nag Champa is a hand-rolled blend of flowers, spices, and resins,
and each stick burns for about 45 minutes. The natural ingredients, herbs, resins and
masala are blended to perfection to create a soothing aroma. Or If I need something
more medicinal I choose Tara healing incense, an ancient Tibetan incense composed of
31 different pure and natural herbs. It is effective, non-toxic and non-addictive and has
been used for stress, depression and tension.
It's really hard to top a soothing bath. Here are some of my favorite bath salts recipes.
"There is no true healing unless there is a change in outlook, peace of mind, and inner
happiness." ~Dr. Edward Bach, 1934.
Bach Flower Remedies are another lovely way to use the power of scent to enrich your
life. Just a spritz under the tongue is all it takes. The creation of noted homeopath and
bacteriologist Dr Edward discovered a complete system of 38 flower remedies, the
Bach Original Flower Remedies, help us rediscover the positive side of ourselves and
help us live emotionally healthy lives.
Now sold in over 65 countries worldwide, the Bach Original Flower Remedies are used
by individuals and respected medical and complementary health practitioners alike.
Candles are one of the most versatile tools of magick. Candles have been used for
prayer and meditation in almost all religions. Across the world you can walk into
churches and light a candle in prayer, or see candles lit to honor ancestors or deities.
Candle magick is one of the simplest forms of magick. From the act of blowing out a
birthday candle to lighting the tapers for a candlelight dinner, candles add magick and
enrich our life. Candles are use so often, some of the rituals behind their use have
been forgotten but from the Yule tradition of burning a bayberry candle down to the
socket to bring joy to the heart and gold to the pocket, to calling up the elements,
candles play an important role in ritual. I have found that Orleans Candle Company has
a wonderful inventory of candles. The Orleans Candle Company produces high quality
candles at a great price as their local craftsmen hand dip and pour a variety of
traditional candles making every candle the old-fashioned way. Not only do they offer
traditional paraffin candles but also 100% Soy Candles that are hand poured and
scented. Using only pure cotton wicks and non-toxic essential oil blend scents, these
candles are tested to burn clean, with minimal or no smoking and 100% Pure Beeswax
Candles that are certified pure. These church quality beeswax candles burn clean and
give off a subtle, natural aroma of honey. This is an excelent place to stock up for the
holidays and don't forget to add a set of Bayberry Candles 10” Stick candles--- perfect
for the holidays, these traditional bayberry scented candles are burnt for good luck and
prosperity.

My magickal books are an important part of my library. Yet there are so many books
