First of all, i would like to wish all my readers a HAPPY SOLSTICE!!! May all your rituals work to perfection and all your wishes be granted
. With the Sun entering Cancer today, it is time to be thankful for our family, may it be biological, adopted or found along the travel of life. Those who care for us and those who know that we care for them, deserve a special place in your solstice altar today. It is also a good ocasion to light a candle -or burn some incense, or make offerings – for those “angels” we have had along the way – those people who were kind and helpful once, and we never saw them again. It doesn’t matter if you don’t remember them; the Goddess knows very well who they are
.
We won’t be doing much rituals today, as the traditional day for celebrating here in the Islands is on Tuesday 23rd, which is called Saint John’s Eve, and it is a day filled with magickal traditions and a night where jumping over a bonfire is the most repeated ritual in all the beaches of the seven islands. It is a rite of luck and purification.
On that day a special Tarot session ot the Tea Bar and we want to show some of our magickal wares. Here are the pics:

Fernando found this trunk on the garbage several months ago. We won’t have much space for display so we chose it because it’s more or less the size of a case, it’s lightweight and we can carry everything inside, so it doubles its use.

We chose witchy containers – coconut shell bowls, basket and vintage glass bowls. I still have two days, so there is a chance that a little more stuff will be added, but we’re taking it slowly and easy. I think I am learning my lesson about overworking! I refuse to keep working until the last minute, as I have done so often for my jewelry showrooms, because it makes you pay a high price – stress. I have accepted that, in the end, it will be what Eleggua wants, so I’ll try to do my best and prove my trust by working just as every day. Witchcraft work has to be done in proper times and days, and cannot be forced to fit in a gig schedule. This is not mass-production and I refuse to alter the quality of my work for having a bigger inventory. Some of the things I will be selling needs weeks and even months to be in the best condition, and if any other Witch is reading this, you’ll agree with me that the smaller the batch, the better the products; thus, I don’t make a thousand kyphi incense pills, I make 40-70 a year.
