🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️Rule #32🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

They say it's the little moments in life that matter most. I absolutely agree. As I have mentioned in previous posts, life has been booting me in the behind hard for the last while, making it incredibly difficult to find any semblance of joy, beauty, peace, or love. For a person who can normally find light in even the darkest of times, this has been especially difficult, making rising out of this slump infinitely more difficult.

Today, however, light came to me in the form of these two awesome men. They are working on the building next to me atop a scissor lift, putting on a simply wonderful concert while doing so. For two hours I have been serenaded by them to top 40 songs on a local radio station, including the occasional dance performance thrown in for good measure.

I am positive that they know that they can be seen and heard during their delightful performance, yet they do not care. They are being their carefree selves, enjoying life and living in the moment, showing their appreciation for it by joining in with the artist. As I sit and occasionally glance out the window to see what antics they are up to next, I am overcome with a plethora of emotions battling their way to the surface.

Joy in seeing others enjoying life in these tumultuous times. Humour when they do a little wiggle to the beat. Sorrow that I cannot seem to find it in me to be carefree as I was not long ago. Angry that life has once again pulled this routine of pulling the rug out from under me when I finally find a semblance of peace. Doubt that I will ever find a way out of this seemingly neverending darkness and the beasties within picking at me like vultures on a not quite yet expired carcass.

But the biggest, and most important one, Hope. Hope that I, too, will be back in my light as the silly, carefree, find light and beauty in everything around me person that I am. I have never been one to remain down when I stumble. I always get back up stronger, more determined and sure of myself and my path in life, ready to take on anything that comes my way.

And while I have been lost in the dark for the longest period yet, I have a sliver of Hope reignited once again within, and that sliver is all that I need to kindle the fire within back to life. This is why today I celebrate and am grateful for being silly while not caring one iota what anyone thinks about it, and the freedom and whimsy it brings to our lives ❤️

I had to take a little hiatus from creating for personal reasons, but today got back into the thick of it. Here is an update on the Faery portal, with Chakra crystals hanging from its boughs as it welcomes you in. Next up, making the stone pillars and covering the base in matching stones and crystals ✨️❤️🧚‍♀️🧚‍♂️

I guess I was on to something when talking about Missy and her brief time in my life. In my opinion, every home should have a cat or two 🐈‍⬛🐈🐱✨️❤️

🐈THE MISSION OF A CAT 🐈

Most people think that cats do nothing, are lazy and do nothing but eat and sleep...

It is not so!
Do you know what a cat's mission is?

All cats have the power, every day, to remove the negative energy accumulated in our body... as soon as we fall asleep, they absorb that energy. If there is more than one person in the family, and only one cat, it can accumulate an excessive amount of negativity by absorbing energy from so many people...

When they sleep, the cat's body releases the negativity it takes away from us. If we are too stressed, they may not have enough time to release all that negative energy, and so, as a result, it accumulates as fat, until they can release it. So, they get fat and you think it was the food you were feeding them... or because they don't move enough... and the truth is, they don't. It is nice to have more than one cat in the house, so that the weight is divided between them.

They also protect us during the night, so that no unwanted spirits enter our house or our room while we sleep... That's why they like to sleep in our bed. And if they think we're fine, they won't sleep with us. If there was something strange around us, they jump into our bed and protect us... If a person comes to our house, and the cats feel that that person is there to harm us or that he is bad, the cats surround us to "protect" us...

If you don't have cats, and a stray cat comes into your house and adopts it as a home, it's because you need a cat at that particular time... So the stray cat volunteered to help you. Thank the cat for choosing your home for that job. If you have other cats and can't keep the stray cat, find a place for him. The cat came for a reason unknown to us on a physical level, and in dreams you can see the reason for the appearance of the cat at that moment. There may be a debt, some karma he has to pay... "So don't freak out or frighten the cat." Well, "he" will have to come back, one way or another, to fulfill this obligation...

Cats heal us.
Cats are adorable creatures, and they love their owners above all else, but they have a different way of loving...

Their love is true, so don't doubt it. They are our great and true friends and above all good companions.

Anyone else ready to start begging? 🤔😆✨️❤️

Talking about our experiences isn't enough. We have to acknowledge and FEEL the emotions we have denied, then we can finally begin healing the wounds deep within, transforming the pain from a negative to a positive, releasing it and its hold upon us ✨️❤️

🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️Rule #32🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

Everything in this life must come to an end. This includes careers, hobbies, habits, and sadly, our connections to those we love and care about. Sometimes these ending are incredibly painful and heartbreaking, others joyful and liberating, while many are a combination of uplifting and Soul breaking all rolled up into one.

As I am facing the imminent end of my mother and the man who has been my father despite not sharing any DNA, I have been reflecting upon other endings that I have experienced in my time on this planet. Out of all of them, the one with this amazing bundle of love has had the biggest impact on me in more ways than I count. Meet Missy, the tuxedo cat that was named after the Doctor Who character who was rotten to the core yet so endearing that you had no choice but to love her. Like her namesake, she was mischievous and a little frightening, but in all of the best ways possible.

And most of all, she loved everyone and everything with all that she had. She greeted everyone like an excited puppy who just wanted all the pets that one was willing to give. She loved jumping on your back and shoulders to ride around like she was a mountain goat. She had zoomies that were reminiscent of a Tasmanian devil. But most of all, she was a constant companion who brightened your day and lifted your mood no matter how dim and dark life appeared in the moment.

This adorable girl helped me through the last few years of global insanity until her life came to an abrupt end due to a medical condition. Thanks to a condition of my own, I was unable to don the face coverings that were mandated in all public places. To this day, despite no longer requiring these devices, I carry around my doctor's note as a life preserver in my purse so I feel semi "safe" being out in public and around people.

You see, people with bare faces were made public enemy number one by the government in my country, with our "leader" even encouraging open season on all who dared to be out with their smile exposed for all to see. For some reason I was a magnet for the nastiest and most cruel of our population any time I left my home, despite me never returning the nastiness nor looking for any type battle of wills with others. My belief and motto was (and still is) do what you need to do to feel safe for yourself, and allow me to do the same without imposing your will upon me.

Despite me respecting others and what they needed to do, I was most definitely NOT afforded the same respect or courtesy. These episodes included physical and verbal interactions such as being pushed around, being followed around stores while having insults and wishes of unaliving of myself and my children hurled at me non stop, access to aisles blocked by patrons, mothers telling their young children I wanted to unalive their grandma, and having security requested to remove me by the oh so caring public around me, with the inevitable insults when their requests were denied.

Thanks to three years of these experiences, I have developed serious PTSD to humans in general, with it being incredibly difficult for me to even leave my house or talk to anyone when my energy is low. The one thing that made it bearable and somewhat easy to cope with the onslaught was my little black and white butterball. It was like she knew when I was low from the animosity and needed a dose of unconditional love. This image is a moment captured of how she would cuddle and give kisses, making the pain go away to be replaced with joy and happiness once again. She was my rock, my joy, my constant companion, even when her health took a downturn.

Despite being in pain and ill herself, she always made sure that I was OK and would take away all of the hurt I was feeling. Maybe that's why she was only with me for such a short amount of time (5.5 years). She removed and transmuted so much darkness into light, perhaps her little body could not take it any longer. What I do know is that she taught me what unconditional was, and how we need to rise above our sadness to find the peace and joy in the tiniest of things.

With this latest round of sadness and stress with said imminent loss, I have been having a very difficult time finding my joy and happiness without my Missy. Even creating is not helping to fill the void the loss of my girl has had within me. She has been gone for almost two years now, and no one can ever replace what she meant to me. She was my world, my teacher, and even my sanity for a brief while, and is even now in her spiritual form reminding me to rise above the darkness and be in the light

Which is why today I celebrate and am grateful for my amazing Missy, and how she is still teaching me unconditional love and bringing me light even though she has moved on and is no longer physically beside me ✨️❤️

I don't think "fitting in" will ever be something I accomplish 😆✨️❤️

Did you know that anger is a secondary emotion? When we become angry there is always an underlying emotion buried underneath, using your anger to keep you from poking at a raw wound. The next time anger comes calling, instead of chalking it up to someone or something flipping your switch, examine the reason why your hackles got raised in the first place. Most often it is fear, sadness, or pain donning a mask of anger to disguise what you are actually feeling ✨️❤️

Leveling up in the Spiritual Realms is not all sunshine, roses, love & light. It is messy, chaotic, down in the dirt, snot crying, oftentimes painful, work. You have to feel all of the things that have been buried within and neglected for so long in order to transmute and free yourself from their weight and oppressive energies. People see your lighter moments and allow envy to creep in not realizing the amount of Soul work and Alchemy that you performed to get to the level you are now at. It feels like one step forward, three steps back more times than you can count, but despite all of the upheaval and reliving of moments the conscious mind rallied so valiantly to forget, every sleepless night spent crying it out IS most definitely worth it. One day soon you will thank yourself for pushing through it and not burying it all deep inside within those carved out little hide holes. You will look back and see just how powerful, resilient, amazing and absolutely magical you truly are. It is especially difficult during this tumultuous retrograde/eclipse season we are collectively experiencing right now, but keep putting one foot in front of the other taking each day one moment at a time, give yourself the credit you absolutely deserve, and go easy on the expectations of where the ego thinks you should be, accepting that you are exactly where you need to be at this historic moment in humanity's history ✨️❤️

It's been a long winter cut off from my personal recharging station (photo in comments), I can't wait to get back there and soak in all of that beautiful energy from Mother.
Where is the place that makes your Soul sing and recharges you? Post photos if you have them and want to share ✨️❤️

May I introduce to you "Witchy Woman" 🔮
(Anyone else have that Eagles song playing in their head right now? 🤔😆)

I have to say, this one was definitely one of my favourite pieces I have had the privilege of bringing into life, and by far the most fun as well. It came together quickly, almost as if by magic, and as I type this out I am being serenaded by crows outside my window, chanting their agreement.

I look forward to its new owner seeing it in person for the first time, and I know that she is going to the perfect, loving home for her.

Crystals used: Labradorite, Amethyst, Rose Quartz, Quartz, Sodalite, Celestite

Cost: $125 CAD. SOLD

🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️Rule #32🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

To say that my biological father would never win awards for his parenting would be massive understatement. His journey as a "father" started with hearing about my imminent arrival, and his immediate response of harming my mother in an attempt to end my life that was forming within her. It only went downhill from there. Every type of harm you can think of, that "man" inflicted upon me, and then some. I grew up thinking I was a vile creature who must be snuffed out, and at the age of 12 he almost had his way when I was about to perform the act he failed at all those years ago.

Luckily Divine Intervention occurred, literally, and I stopped myself from committing a permanent and irreversible act before any harm could be done. And it would have been permanent as I'm the kind of gal who goes all in and does the job right and completely the first time. Since that day at such a tender and impressionable age, my view of father figures was dismal and I had zero intention of letting another one come in and try to change my mind.

Enter the man who would become my step father when I was 17. Loathing would be a good definition of how I felt about him, and from his end the feeling was mutual. Both of us barely tolerated the other for my Mother's sake, with him going out of his way to make sure I knew how little he thought of me with his sparse communication and actions in my direction. It was a LONG three years of mutual dislike for one another, until that beautiful day that I discovered life growing within, making me a mom.

For some reason he performed a 180, completely changing how he interacted and behaved around me. Where once he was dismissive and thoughtless, now he was inclusive and caring. In fact, he actually cared more about me than my own Mother did, ensuring that I had everything I needed to see that my pregnancy went as smoothly as possible.

With his new attitude came a shift in my own as well. I no longer despised the ground he tread upon, and was slowly allowing myself to trust and let him in behind my deep and impenetrable walls. Once my amazing boys were born, he stepped up even more. He became a second father to them, and when their own dad was no longer in the picture, he became a substitute father doing all the things a dad would do including teaching them how to ride a bike and how to shave when puberty (and facial hair) inevitably set in.

These days he has taken on another role, that of being a caregiver to my seriously ill mother. With end stage early onset Alzheimers, comes the loss of everything, not just your memory. She is no longer able to perform any acts of self care, including feeding herself, as well as being completely reliant upon diapers for her incontinence. Every day he lovingly takes care of her daily needs, cooks for and feeds her, and even changes her diapers when they need to be replaced. He even arranged to have a lift installed in the van when she could no longer climb into it so he can take her out for rides in the countryside like they did when she was still "with us", and bought her a motorized recliner to help her stand as she can no longer do that without assistance as well.

This man, after that rocky start, has proven time and time again what real men are, along with how a husband, father, and grandfather treat those that they love and care about. He has wormed his way into my heart and Soul, which is why today I celebrate and am grateful for bonus parents, and all of the ways that they fill our lives with love by choosing to be there, especially when the ones who created us opted not to do so ✨️❤️

You can't have a witchy room without a reading table 🔮 I pulled these mini tarot cards at random and the reading is spot on for the owner of this witchy piece of Faery ❤️

Last sneak peek before she is all finished ✨️💜

03/22/2024

A little sneak peek at the next Creation coming down the line. She is called "Witchy Woman", a custom piece for a truly beautiful soul.

She will have many magical details to accompany this tiny herb garden and fantastical feathery Faery tree (say that three times fast 🤣), and is so far shaping up to be one of my favourite pieces to date...although I say that about almost all of my Creations 😆

She will have Amethyst and Labradorite, both very powerful crystals in the magical world, along with all of the tools that witchy women use in their daily lives 🔮✨️💜

Hey folks, I needs some help from all of you beautiful people 🤞🤞

The beings that run FB Marketplace have deemed my latest Creation "Through the Rabbit Hole " unsellable due to it supposedly violating their rules. What rules you ask? I am apparently selling controlled substances and to***co because our little Caterpillar friend has a FAKE device beside him made out of little glass/metal beads and crafting wire. I disputed the decision to which they temporarily allowed it to be posted, but would not allow it in other groups so I took it down, tried again with new photos that do not show the oh so vile apparatus, removed all mention of it in the description, and now they will not allow it at all and told me that if I tried again I would lose the "privilege" of using Marketplace all together 🙄🤦‍♀️ It is OK to share from here, just not on Marketplace.

If my amazing followers could please share the original post with the video I would be eternally grateful to everyone who does. It is difficult enough for crafters to get their products out there and sold without the added burden of asinine "rules" and outright thre@ts being placed upon us for doing so. Every share from our followers helps to get our craft and name out there, and helps our Creations find the loving homes that they belong to.

Thank you so much for being part of my creative journey, and know that I truly and deeply appreciate and am grateful to each and every one of you and your support ✨️❤️
