Before I go onto talk about my favorite time off year, I will give you a little update on whats happening in my wee life. Well, I am now at college full time, and I am loving it, I am certainly not the sharpest pencil in the case, but Im plodding along just nicely, to be honest I started this course to broaden my knowledge on essential oils ect, but after a couple of months at college, I really want go down the therapy route, particularly reflexology, I love it!!. I want to take my studies to as far as they can go, watch this space, this wee dafty from fife might end up at uni, who knows eh (I'm a fifer born and bred, moved up to Pitlochry last year). The tutors are really cool too, there is one in particular that I have so much respect for, she teaches me body massage, her teaching methods are brilliant and she goes that extra mile for her pupils, she even does assignments that we get so she has an understanding off what we go through. I just think she is fab.
Highland Essence parties are coming along nicely too, there is going to be lots of christmas specials so book your party now.
Samhain is here the time of year the vail between our world and the spirit world is at its weakest. This is a great time to honor those who have past away. I always have a meal to celebrate my gran watsons life, she was a huge presence in my life and even in her death I still feel her near me. So tonight light a candle and toast those who no longer walk the earths plain. Another little ritual I do at this time of year is a wish box, (i make mines in the shape of a coffin, but a match box will suffice), in the inside of the box put everything you wish to attchieve, you could write a list, I draw pictures, make little symbolic (i.e if you wish to get a new car put in a toy car) miniatures relevant to what i desire, but remember selfish wishes will get you nowhere. On the outside of the box I put what I wish to be free off. This is a great thing for the whole family to get involved with, my 6 year old son loves it, his box is filled with power rangers pictures (he is going to be the next red power ranger). On the night of the 31st have a little bonfire, discuss with each other about what your box means and represents to you. Throw it onto the bonfire the magick is done. You could say a little incantation while you throw it in the fire. I usually finish it of by saying "this is my will so mote it be".
I will also be going into Pitlochry tonight because they're having a firework display, all week they have had so much going on all themed round halloween, the kids have loved it. Tonight I am going dressed as a witch, my son Dracula and my wee daughter is going as a cat (she is sooo cute), I will update photos in the next few days.
Well my dearies, no matter what you choose to do, stay safe and most of all have fun
