Merry Meet
There's lots to see on this site so feel free to have a look around and come back often.
Every Monday on this page, there will be a Witch's Oracle Deck reading to let you know what the week has in store for you, and also on Mondays you will find a new Spell of the Week. After all, everyone needs a good spell once in a while.
This Week's Oracle Deck Reading
Alchemists, herbalists, witches and scientists have used the mortar and pestle for thousands of years to grind herbs to a fine paste for potions, spell workings and in making incense.
​
Symbolically, the mortar and pestle represents sexual completion, the unity of male and female influences, a balance. The mortar, like most cup or bowl-shaped objects is seen as female, a vessel. The pestle, a phallic symbol, is by itself a tool of destruction but, in combination with the mortar, is an instrument of creation.
​
It is time to get busy create your own recipe for things to come, but be very careful in the concoction you choose to use, because some of the ingredients could be poisonous.
​
Incantation: With mortar and pestle mix it up. Ideas and plans tossed in a cup. Crush and grind them one by one, until you feel they are perfectly done.
