Happy Time – Incense for positive vibes

Category : Here & Now

 

This incense smells sweet and carefree as the summer and thus makes a good mood all by itself.

 

 

In the photo you can see the ingredients and the proportions to which I took them. You can grind the ingredients in a blender, with scissors or with your fingers. When I make larger quantities, I usually chop the ingredients in the blender. For this, the ingredients which are the hardest, such as the resin should be crushed first, before you add the easily crushable ingredients, such as the magnolia petals.

 

Have fun smoking and the positive mood!

Feather fans for incense

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

 

Some time ago I made a feather fan myself to distribute the smoke when smoking around me, other people or simply more targeted in the room. Homemade items, which you use in your incense or otherwise in your rituals have a different energy than those that you buy. Because you have made them yourself, you also have a different connection to them.

 

 

For the feather fan, I used a piece of the bark of an oak tree. I have collected them at my place of power. You should let the tree bark dry before processing, brush it well and remove the dirt. For the ribbons you need, I recommend you to choose your favorite colors. You can easily collect the feathers on walks.

I actually have a story about this. When I had almost finished my feather fan, I forgot to close the door to my room and my dog ate the almost finished feather fan. It was already very cold outside and the leaves had fallen from the trees. I thought I would not find a single feather outside, but when I went for a walk in the afternoon, I found by chance a place where many feathers were lying on the ground.

The feathers that are suitable for your feather fan will find their way to you.

You should wash and dry the feathers before processing. This is best done in a soap bath. To dry, you can then put them in a jar after you have rinsed them with clean water.

When the feathers are dry you can start processing. First you should look by hand how the feathers fit best in a row. When you have found the best arrangement, then take the needle and preferably white thread to hand and sew them together at the end of the feather, so that they lie together like a fan. To make it stick better you can take some wood glue and spread it at the end of the feathers. Let it dry overnight.

I also made a second row with smaller feathers on my feather fan. Here you also proceed as described above and sew them together with needle and white thread. Then spread some wood glue at the end of the feathers and let it dry overnight.

You can now sew the 2 rows of feathers together and then smear them again with wood glue. Then glue them to the lower side of the tree bark and let them dry for some time. Do not let them dry out completely; the wood glue should still be a little soft. Now you can put the ribbons around the feathers and the tree bark and tighten them a bit. Later you can add your decorations.

 

 

Before using the feather fan for the first time, you should smoke it and charge it energetically. You should repeat the charging from time to time.

Have fun creating your feather fan!

Lizard

Category : Here & Now

A few days ago I surprisingly discovered a lizard on my terrace and that in winter, when it is quite cold, stormy and simply uncomfortable here in the north. I was able to take this beautiful photo of her.

The lizard actually loves to stay in sunny and warm places. Often it remains on a cozy warm place in the sun and does not move. She relaxes and observes her surroundings. It appears almost motionless. She is introverted and rests within herself. The lizard is perfect in its power. It calls us to do the same and to connect with our intuition. So it is not surprising that the lizard as a power animal stands as a messenger of dreams and is attributed the ability to create reality from their dreams.

The message of the lizard is to realize one’s desires and to be guided by one’s dreams to its realization, thus making the impossible come true. It dreams your world, so to speak.

A special feature is that the lizard sheds its skin and thus renews itself. It leaves part of your tail behind in battle, which then grows back over time. So it is not only associated with light and peace and intuition, but also with regeneration, rebirth or transformation. It detaches itself from the old in order to create itself anew, so to speak.

Although she rests in herself, she is able to act as fast as lightning. She perceives her surroundings very precisely.

Trust in the good

Trust that good will come into your life.

In everyday life we are exposed to many problems, difficulties and also negative moods. This is very stressful and can have an impact on our mind and mood.

A positive attitude towards life changes everything. Is the glass half full or half empty? If we have a positive attitude and believe in the positive in life, this thought alone brings a smile to our lips. It fills us with joy and cheerfulness.

When we are convinced that all good things will find their way to us, we automatically ensure that abundance is attracted to us. If we radiate positivity such as joy, serenity, love and happiness, this energy will also find its way to us. This is the law of attraction.

The more we come into our strength and build up an unshakable trust to be filled with light, the more calmly we can deal with difficult situations in life. We are deeply anchored with our inner child in this state of unshakable trust in the good, and nothing can upset it so easily. To foster this inner strength, one can open one’s heart. The more open it is, the easier the positive vibrations come back to us. In addition, you can learn to trust your inner voice more and more – also in everyday life. This often happens step by step. In the beginning, it is only small inspirations that we perceive and follow or implement. Later we realize that these intuitions were super advice or right decisions. The more you listen to your inner voice and trust it, the more a harmony between mind and inner voice/intuition is established, so that both gifts are united.

Until we reach the point of trying to listen to what our inner voice is telling us. What does it want, what ideas does it have, what impulses does it give us and only then do we take action. That is, where before we acted rationally and occasionally took up impulses from the inner voice, we now take the opposite approach. Before we act or start to think even, we go within ourselves and ask our inner child. Both can be tried out.

In order to stay in this positive basic attitude, it can be helpful to protect yourself from negative vibrations. These can meet us everywhere. There are various exercises or meditations for this. For example, you can regularly cleanse your chakras. When we feel exhausted from everyday life or we have the feeling that everyday life burdens us and crushes us. There are many free meditations available on the Internet.

Another possibility is to breathe in slowly and close your eyes. Then hold your breath for a few seconds before exhaling again. Do you notice how your head or face tingles slightly and seems electrified? Then you are on the right path. Now repeat this a few times. While inhaling, imagine bright light flowing through your body and illuminating it. Then you hold your breath again for a few seconds and when you exhale you imagine how the luminous body and its aura form or envelop a greenish glowing protective shell.

You can now repeat this exercise as long and intensively as you like. If you are traveling by car, you should not do this exercise. Do it only when you are standing, sitting or lying on solid ground.

 

Incense for peace

Have fun and stay positive !

Imbolc – Festivals of Lights

 

On February 1, 2022 is Imbolc, the Festival of light and usually on this day the return of the light is celebrated. However, on February 1, the new moon is already in the early morning hours, so you should plan your ceremony for the Festival of Lights on January 31, 2022. Imbolc is celebrated in honor of the Celtic goddess of light and the sun, Brigit. Her energy displaces winter (letting go), slowly awakens nature and heralds a new cycle (new beginnings). The goddess Brigit represents not only the poetry and healing arts, but also fertility and is the patron goddess of blacksmithing. For Druids, Brigit was also the goddess of truth. The Christians changed the name of this feast and it is known as Maria Light Mass.

You can use the Festival of Lights for your personal new beginnings, that which is especially close to your heart and that which we want to see grow and flourish. It is a very powerful energy.

Be inspired by the qualities and elements associated with the Goddess. You can place white candles at the place of your celebration, for decorating you can use e.g. moss, snowdrops, birch, etc. You can also write a poem, since Brigit is the goddess of poetry, or use one of the many poems available on the Internet.

This year, I was very inspired by the energy just before Imbolc and I handmade this bracelet. Inside the bracelet is a grown snowdrop and a few moonstone beads. It has a very special energy and I love to wear it.

Enjoy the Festival of light and good luck for the realisation of your wish!

New Moon – Insence for New Beginning

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

 

The upcoming New Moon in Aquarius can be used not only for energetic cleansing and letting go, it is also excellent for celebrating new beginnings and manifesting wishes. February 1, 2022 is the festival of lights Imbolc in honor of the Celtic goddess Brigit, who stands for growth. But also the energy of the new moon initiates a new cycle.

Make sure your ingredients are either from your own garden, or from nature where you picked them during a walk. All ingredients must be dried. The resin should be dried for at least 1 year so that it does not produce too much smoke.

New Moon – Insence for cleaning

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

On the New Moon, you can use incense for energetic cleansing, to energetically cleanse your home, or to rid yourself of heavy energies.
This incense blend for cleansing is also very suitable for the upcoming festival of lights Imbolc on February 1 or January 31, 2022.

 

Make sure your ingredients either come from your garden, or gather them on walks or at your power spot. This way you can be sure that they do not contain pesticides and they have a special energy when you collect them at your power place.

I used equal parts of each ingredient in this incense.

The ingredients must all be dried. With wild herbs, this is fairly quick. The resin you use should be dried for at least 1 year before you use it for incense.

All ingredients go into the blender.

You can put the crushed incense in a jar for storage. If you use a transparent glass, you should use them in a short time. If you want to store the incense for a longer time, preferably use a brown colored glass.

For cleaning, I also recommend taking a bath in sea salt on the same day. Water has a different energy and this can again support.

12 Mystical Nights

Category : Here & Now

The Rough Nights are 12 mystical nights from December 25 to January 6 each year. During this time the gate to the other world is wide open and it is easy for us to get in touch with spirits, angels, demons and the ancestors. This time was traditionally used for introspection. In the past, people did not leave the house at nightfall. Because in the darkness the Wild Hunt with the Percht or Wotan with his companions whirled through the area.
Today we can use this time to focus on the coming year and our goals and wishes.

Each night represents a month in the coming year: December 25 represents January, December 26 represents February, December 27 represents March, and so on.

Dreams will become true

On each day of these Rauhnächte you should pay special attention to your dreams. To do this, you can use a notebook and first thing in the morning to write down his dreams of the previous night in it and interpret. The dreams can come true in the respective month. Therefore, we should pay special attention to them.

Animals can speak

In addition, pay attention to animals, which sees on these days and which appear particularly. They have a special meaning, especially you can use the shamanic meaning to the power animals.

Weather brings indication of the new year

You should also pay attention to the weather and write down how it was in the respective Rauhnacht. Because as the weather on the respective day, the month will also be in the coming year.

Listen to yourselves and do introspection. Which inspirations do you have? How do you feel? Which moods do you perceive?
Also note down what happens on the respective day, e.g. in the family. Does someone special call? Are you meeting with someone?

You can also meditate a lot and you should also burn incense to clean the rooms energetically, but to get in better contact with the spirits.

Have fun during this magical time!

 

Here you can find a youtube video on the 12 mystical nights in german language.

Rough Nights

Category : Here & Now

Some inspirations in preparation of the Rough Nights

We can use this dark season for us to reflect, to introspect and to find our silence. The gates to all dimensions are open at this time, to angels, spirits, demons and ancestors. You can use the time between the years to focus on the essentials for the coming year or to get in touch with ancestors. Bad habits can be discarded and our destiny can be changed by our own initiative.

In the Rough Nights, the wheels are known to stand still. So you can already do certain errands in the time before December 21, such as:

  • Tidy up (closet & shoe closets & clean out children’s room, etc.),
  • pay bills & settle debts,
  • return borrowed items,
  • cut fingernails and toenails and trim hair & beard,
  • sew on buttons,
  • keep promises,
  • do laundry (since during the nights of incense the laundry wheel also stands still)

However, you should also remain realistic. What can actually be done this year? You should try to start from scratch and create a calm atmosphere without legacy issues.

Errands

The following things are needed during the Rough Nights:

  • DINA 5 (ring) book or notebook (for notes during the Rough Nights but also during the coming year),
  • tarot cards,
  • incense, incense mixtures & charcoal,
  • a few nice little pieces of paper (e.g. for the 13 wishes, but also for other rituals to use),
  • nice candles,
  • 4 grave candles,
  • pumpkin seeds (for symbolic planting of the wishes)

The listed materials are needed for ceremonies during the Rough Nights.

 

Reflection before the start of the Rough Nights

Some questions should already have been dealt with before the Rough Nights. You can already write down the answers in the ring binder or notebook.

You should have already answered the following questions:

What do I want to let go

1.) What do I not want to take with me into the new year?
2.) What have I been grateful for this year?
3.) Who will stay in 2021 and not come to me in 2022?

The listed materials are needed for ceremonies during the Rough Nights.

What do I want to achieve this year or what values are important to me?

1.) What are my overall goals?
2.) What are my concrete goals (4 goals)?

From the 4 concrete goals you can then derive or create the 13 wishes for the Rough Nights.

The resulting 13 wishes can already be written down in the notebook. They can be changed later before the Rough Nights if you have slept a few nights over it.

Enjoy your reflection for next year!
