Lillies and Irises, spreading their majestic fragrance around the house. A new Rose of Jericho for the altar, unfurling its beauty. When friends go hiking and come back with pine nuts, iron covered stones, seeds and mossy branches, you know they love you. Last week, I sent some doll clothes to a Flickr friend that [...]

Posted in Book Of Shadows, Folk Magick Alphabet, Talismans / Amulets / Charms on May 23, 2011 | 5 Comments »
This is the first of a series of alphabetic posts about superstitions, folk magick, charms and everything we love about magick.

We didn’t have any appointments on Wednesday, so we decided to go early in the morning to our beloved mountain of Las Mercedes to make an offering, something we had been delaying for a while.
