This And That

We spent the morning giving a good clean to our roof garden – Fernando had just finished this new table made with salvaged paillet wood, to be placed on the west wall where the sun hits for more hours now. For us, this is like the beginning of Spring. Plants are growing like crazy and many seeds that were afraid of the heat are now starting to sprout. We are expecting a new shipment of seeds next week and we have to make more room for future pots.

Yesterday I collected and set to dry all the african violet flowers to make a gorgeous herbal tea, and prepared five bottles of Santería waters: Florida and Kananga Waters, Satyr Water, Pomba Gira water and a special bottle of extra-perfumed rose water for my personal use. They smell like Witchy heaven!
- Florida Water smells like a garden in full bloom, with touches of rose, lilac and other flower perfumes; it is used to clean and bless yourself or your ritual space and tools.
- Kananga Water has a vibrant, fruity scent that is made to protect and clean your aura while smelling like a tropical queen.
- Satyr Water has been infused with indigo powder and has a manly, powerful scent of sandalwood, myrrh and other powerful oils. A wonderful all-purpose protection spray for the warlock in your life .
- Pomba Gira Water has a base of homemade rose water and a mixture of perfumes that make this water sensual and rich to the senses. Made to unblock energies and open opportunities, as she is the female Eleggua.

Santería waters can be used as cologne, used as floor washes, sprayed on beds and all absorbent surfaces like sofas and curtains. They clean, energize and protect energy and they are a quick, invisible way to cast a spell anywhere. My customers buy it in this big bottles and then buy a small spray to keep some always in their purses. As soon as I find safe plastic bottles to save you shipping costs, I will list a small amount of them.

The rest of the day has been spent reading, studying, and taking slooooow notes for the Santería ebook. The more I write, the more I have LEFT to write. Every day, new topics arise that I’d like to write about – but I’m feeling a strong wish to finish it, as if it was its proper time, and it’s a feeling I recognize well – being a daughter of Eleggua makes you quite aware of change. I’ll ask the cards later.

Happy Weekend Everyone!
