Flea Market Madness

So today and tomorrow we were and will be selling at the Flea Market and it's our first time. I'm nervous, mostly because I'm always a bit nervous  before I do something new, but there is a lot that goes into selling. Packing and hauling it all, not forgetting anything, set up and proper inventory and making sure everything is tagged and looks appealing. Then there is the talking with customers, preparing to answer all sorts of questions. Having to be cheerful and friendly even when they are not. Oh I totally forgot we will be dealing with the heat. So yea, yea I'm a little nervous. But I'm also totally excited. Today we are going to be setting up and selling doTERRA essential oils. I freakin' love this company and I always use them over anything else you buy off the shelves. Seriously the best quality I have ever had. We also are adding one of Serenity's artisans soaps. I think we can do really well. If you are into alternative healthy living you have got to try these oils. doTERRA sells a lot more too, they have a natural weight loss program that utilizes essential oil, its called Slim and Sassy. They have soaps, facial products (that I use and love!), diffusers, even shampoos. One of my very favorite thing though is their On Guard line. It's a blend of oils that helps your body fight off illness, it cleans the air, boosts immunity. I seriously think it's the best stuff ever! And it has a spicy kind of a smell that is so so nice. Anyway wish us such great luck today at the Flea Market.

If you are interested in essential oils and have questions email me: missmelaniegrace@gmail.com. If you already love oils and are looking to buy them do so from me of course!!!

Motivation Spell

'Laziness is not a trait to be admired,
instead give lust to be inspired.
If it is lack of courage or fear the unknown,
light brightly the path and let the way be shown.
Motivation is the gift I give
desire and strength to live.
To live a life of production and passion
with a sound, strong mind and love’s compassion.
Be ye invigorated and spring to action
let no day pass unfulfilled but cease each moment with direct reaction.
May no magick force your way
Be simply inspired this I pray.
Blessed your life may be
and open your eyes to see,
that each day is a gift that we shouldn’t waste
so rise and cease the day with haste.
Good luck and good love I send to you,
and always remember to thyself be true.
With love and light
Blessed ye be.

Jesus Don't Want Me for a Sunbeam- Nirvana, Unplugged

My Travis and I watched the Unplugged show. It was amazing. Kurt touches me a lot. And this song, though not originally a Nirvana, really spoke to me and I just wanted to hear it over and over again until I knew the words and could sing it to myself.

The Shop

So when we started a shop the original idea was to open a metaphysical shop that sold real stuff. Not "real" as in this is the right way to do something eeennnn. But real as in hand made, hand crafted, hand grown, hand gathered, hand mined, or hand picked. We wanted to create community and when someone asked where does this come from or what is this made of we would be able to tell them. Because when you are dealing with energies that kind of thing mattered. We promised (with the exception of books and what not) that we would never buy anything online in bulk. But doing merchandise like that takes a good amount of time and our magick items were growing but always slowly. The time that the shop required was ridiculous and I felt like I never had time or energy to do my art and other work. Deciding to let go of the store front and focus on online and holding events and gatherings was both a loss and a relief. But our top priority for the last few weeks was to find someone who would take over our lease or else we would be fined a penalty. I sent out an add with a blessing and we got a few interested people but among them was a psychic who wants to set up a wonderful place to do readings and to sell metaphysical merchandise. She is wonderful and I am so excited that the space is going to be used for what we had always intended for it. And I feel so much better about having something available to support the community. And if she would like us to Earth Craft will still be selling our herbs, oils and other work through her. I'm very happy.

Musical Mondays

A friend of mine started Musical Mondays on her blog and I think its such a great way to share and discover new music. So I'm joining in. And because its a rainy day here in Savannah I chose Beauty of the Rain by Dar Williams

What are you listening to today?

Gathering

While finally deciding to close our store front I felt a huge loss in regards to the pagan community. There are no other store front metaphysical shops in Savannah. There are some people at the flea market and apparently some groups but from our experience they have been really hard to get in involved with. And we know so many people around who are searching for community. So we want to open up our home on a general basis for people to come by and get what they need. We also want to start open gatherings once a week or so. Our hope is just to get people together. Offer a safe place and connect people to each other. I want to get my friends that do readings and what not involved too and help them be more accessible. I might even start up my scrying again. :o
