Intuitive Crystal Master/Teacher (L4), Reiki Master/Teacher, Pellowah, Aromatherapy, Massage Therapies, Readings, Courses, Workshops and more.

All ages supported. I specialise in supporting your healing journey with a flourish of I have always been pulled towards crystals since my first stone, a rose quartz tumble around the age of 10. Added to which an obsession with magick, witches, ghosts and potion making in the garden since even younger. I grew up with ‘imaginary friends’, seeing and feeling much that others didn’t and naturally drawing myself to animal companions over people. As a teenager, in addition to my other loves of music, horses and art, I read scarily accurate Tarot for friends and never really fitted in at school and the world in general. I only wish I could have reassured my younger self that not fitting in is the best thing in the universe. In my early 20’s I broke my lower back but it wasn’t until some ten years later that it was properly diagnosed and eventually I was operated on. The pain was immense but the drugs were worse. Luckily I was part of a mediumship circle and I was recommended to three wonderful people; a crystal and energy healer and two spiritual healers. Working with them on alternate weeks my pain became more manageable as did my mobility. My sleep improved dramatically and I found a sense of peace in the chaos. I was now off the worst of the painkillers and my head became clearer. Thankfully I'm mostly better and back on my surfboards and my broom and in the mosh pit at gigs! I qualified as a Crystal Healing Practitioner and a Reiki Master/Teacher a year later and began practising to help friends, colleagues, pets and my horse. They in turn taught me so much too. My crystal connection grew as did my connection with energy and Spirit work. In 2016 I finally took that leap of faith that meant SaltwaterGaia was born. I was caught by the Universe after suffering burnout, anxiety and stress, and thus began my journey back to health and authenticity. Crystals and energy work are my passion and I trained and qualified in several massage modalities and aromatherapy along the way. I received further attunements and training in USUI Equine Reiki (with Equine Communication) and USUI Animal Reiki; both at Master/Teacher level. I went on to be awarded further certificates in Animal Healing and Communication to practitioner level. As a sensitive I work wholistically. I use my life experiences and additional tools to hold space and help others do the same; align themselves with their highest potential working. I work in person and absently to empower and start the healing, so the body can continue the process . Although not part of the plan, in 2017 I organically began writing and running Crystal courses and workshops alongside USUI Reiki attunement courses. My Crystal Magick course has supported many people on their crystal journey. Serendipity brought me, in 2017, to meet Philip Permutt (The Crystal Healer) and further training with him up to Crystal Healing Master/Teacher level licensed me to teach his Crystal Healing courses too. I now offer several energy healing and massage that all connect with crystal energy. Signature Treatments include my Resting Witch Face facials, Crystal/Tarot readings and Lave Shell Bliss massage.   Every month I run Crystal Club, Crystal Meditation Magick and Moon Magick. Contact me to chat about bespoke talks and events such as my Psychic Parlour Games to utilising my services at retreats and weddings etc. I’m pleased to announce the launch of SaltwaterStones, so you can choose from a boutique selection of hand picked and ethically sourced crystals after your treatment or workshop or simply book an appointment to view. I hold an extended DBS certificate, current First Aid at Work certificate and FHS certificate. I'm very proud of all of my qualifications and happy to discuss these with new clients.

Greetings fellow Goddesses …..

Today is World Goddess Day. It is a day for all Goddess-worshiping people worldwide to come together and openly celebrate or pay tribute to the Goddess in all her forms.

World Goddess Day falls on the first Sunday in September. It was initiated in 2014 by Wiccan author Claudiney Prieto.

Thanks to the stunning artwork of Naomi Cornock I’m sharing a few of the Goddesses I walk and work with; The Morrighan, Epona, Brigid and Ellen of the Ways.

Don’t forget that tonight is also the Full Harvest Moon and lunar eclipse, see yesterday’s post for further detailed information.

A blessed full moon and Giddess day to you all …..

Full Moon blessings and salutations fellow moon gazies …..

‘𝒲𝒽𝑒𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃 𝒾𝓈 𝒶𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒻𝓊𝓁𝓁, 𝓂𝓊𝓈𝒽𝓇𝑜𝑜𝓂𝓈 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒸𝒶𝓃 𝓈𝒶𝒻𝑒𝓁𝓎 𝓅𝓊𝓁𝓁.
𝐵𝓊𝓉 𝓌𝒽𝑒𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑀𝑜𝑜𝓃 𝒾𝓈 𝑜𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓌𝒶𝓃𝑒, 𝓌𝒶𝒾𝓉 𝑒𝓇𝑒 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓃𝓀 𝓉𝑜 𝓅𝓁𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝒶𝑔𝒶𝒾𝓃.’

Tomorrow at 19.09, our lady moon will reach fullness in the watery astrological sign of Pisces further accompanied by a full lunar eclipse!

Mystical Pisces is the watery home of soul searching, inner reflection, intuition and psychic gifts and deep emotions. Rules by Neptune, the Full Moon in Pisces heightens emotional sensitivity, spiritual awareness and creative insight. This placement encourages deeper trust in your inner voice and invites exploration of dreams, intuition, and imagination.

A lunar eclipse is a powerful time for transformation. As the Moon is temporarily darkened by the Earth’s shadow, hidden emotions and subconscious patterns can rise to the surface. It is a potent opportunity to reflect, release, and invite change.

η α м є …..
So named the Harvest Moon as the light of this full moon allows farmers to work all night to bring the harvest home. It’s sometimes called the Wine Moon as the grapes are ready to be picked and fermented. Also, the Fruit Moon, named for the time when tree fruits are ready to harvest.

This moon goes by other names such as Crone Moon, Moon of the Wise, Singing Moon, Cantlos Moon, Leaves Turning Moon, Mulberry Moon, Spider Web on the Ground at Dawn Moon, Yellow Leaf Moon, Nut Moon, Apple Moon, Mid-Autumn Moon, Song Time Moon, Coli Moon, Moon of the Wise and Chrysanthemum Moon.

ƈ ɛ Ɩ ɬ ı ƈ ơ ɠ ɧ ą ɱ …..
The Celtic Ogham names this the Hazel Moon due to its connection to the harvest of fruits and nuts. It’s connected to manifestation, prosperity, knowledge, wisdom, truth, the element of water and intuition, protection and the various ways of communicating.

ʂ ƚ α ɾ ʂ ι ɠ ɳ ƚ α ɾ σ ƚ …..
In Tarot, Pisces is represented in the major arcana by The Moon (XVIII). This card speaks of illusion, fear, anxiety, subconscious and intuition. Conversely it highlights inner confusion, releasing fear and repressed emotions.

ɖ ɛ ı ɬ ı ɛ ʂ …..
You may choose to work with include Demeter, Ceres, Isis, Freya, Hestia, Spider Grandmother, Danu or Thoth.

ƈ ɾ ყ ʂ ƚ α ʅ ʂ …..
LARIMAR - the stone of dolphins and sentient ocean beings supports emotional energy shifts and, like Amazonite, carries the energy of the water. Larimar enhances intuitive communication so use it as your touchstone this Full Moon for universal guidance.

VARISCITE WITH WAVELLITE - is a sea foam green mineral comprising two oceanic energies. Variscite offers a tranquil energy that supports meditation, the Piscean best friend, and helps us to appreciate the small things. Wavellite is a stone of love, peace, truth and compassion that empowers and rejuvenates the emotional body

BLUE AMBER - Amber has ancient associations with magick and this rarer variety taps into Pisces energy. Used at the time of the Hazel Moon it opens the mind to new realms of conscious awareness. Historically it was believed to be fossilised sunlight but paired with lunar energies it brings a deep understanding of the ebb and flow of the tides of universal energies.

JET - is a highly protective stone especially against curses and ill wishes and is a natural partner to Amber When used at the time of the Harvest Moon it’s even more potent, so can be used to keep you and your family shielded energetically from negativity.

ORANGE CALCITE - mimics the soft orange colour often visible in the Harvest Moon itself. This calcite gently suffuses the body, soul and energy field with warmth as we move into the darker months. A light in the dark for those affected by the nights drawing in and the darker mornings too.

ʅ υ ɳ α ɾ ɾ ι ƚ υ α ʅ …..⁠
Set a dish of water on your Altar or Sacred Space; you could even work outside in nature if the weather allows. Gently place a Larimar (or Amazonite) stone into it. Place a second stone just in front of the dish.

Dip your finger in the water and rub a drop or two over your Heart Centre and then your Third Eye. Now close your eyes and feel the energy of this crystalline water energising this two chakras.

Take a deep breath and as you exhale breathe out any negative energy or stagnant emotions. See this energy flow into the water where it can be transmuted. Repeat until you feel all blocked energy has been released.

Visualise the second stone, in front of the dish, glowing brightly with positive energy. As you inhale breathe in this positive light energy until you feel brighter and balanced.

α ɳ ԃ ϝ ι ɳ α ʅ ʅ ყ …..
It's a marvellous night for a moon bath (try reading that without singing it in your head). So time for your crystals, divination and magickal tools. Remember to set them aside for a restorative and deep cleanse and maybe enchant some moonwater.

Let the Harvest Moon shine a light on your inner rebellious kook …..

Today we say goodbye August and hello September and with that Autumn rains forth.

With the Autumn Equinox just around the corner, Autumn is my favourite season (if you hadn’t already guessed). This years harvest is bountiful, trees and bushes are heavy with the fruits and nuts they bear. Gather and forage as ye may but remember to leave more for the wildlife also stocking up their stores.

Bring on the seasonal magick!

What are you most looking forward to about Autumn ….?

Bright Blessings my lovelies …..

Today we remember our sisters on what is the three hundred and forty third anniversary of their horrifying deaths

The earliest surviving record of witchcraft in Bideford was back in 1658 concerning Grace Ellyott. After standing trial at Exeter assizes she was acquitted.

In 1671 Temperence Lloyd of Bideford was first accused of killing William Herbert by witchcraft but was also acquitted. Then in 1679 she was again accused of practising witchcraft on Anne Fellow. However, after she had been searched and papers filed no further action was taken.

In 1610 Bideford had been granted a charter by James I to run their judicial system separately. ‘Sessions of the peace’ could be convened whenever any of the elected Justices were called upon to investigate instances of murder, felonies, sorceries, dark arts and witchcraft.

Temperence was arrested again on 1st July 1682 due to a complaint brought against her by Thomas Eastchurch a local shop keeper. After being arrested she was held in the old chapel that used to be at the end of the current medieval bridge. Her body was searched for sign of the witch and she was interrogated by investigators and accusers. After much heresay and purely circumstantial evidence that included a magpie on her windowsill, she was committed to the gaol in Exeter on 8th July to await trial at at assizes.

On Tuesday 18 July, Mary Trembles was denounced to the authorities of the town and consequently arrested, together with her companion Susanna Edwards following further superstition and finger pointing. ‘Confessions’ were extracted through bullying, intimidation and withholding food and water etc and they joined Temperence in Exeter Gaol in 19th July.

The trial took place at Exeter Castle on the 14th August. Witchcraft, because of its secret and almost unprovable nature, was considered a crime and suspicion alone was sufficient grounds for accusation. The evidence against them was full and fanciful and held a lot of weight due to the high positions held by many of the accusers in Bideford.

The three women were found guilty and were sentenced to be hanged on Friday 25 August 1682 before a large crowd at Heavitree outside Exeter. The interest was greatly fuelled by the fact that three elderly women from the country were being brought into town in these charges.

Temperance Lloyd, Mary Trembles and Susanna Edwards paid with their lives for purely for the suspicion of witchcraft and malicious gossip by townsfolk. The memory of the 1682 lingered on in Bideford long afterwards. Tradition said that the three witches lived in a thatched cottage in Old Town which was burnt down in 1894, of which one photograph remains (see below).

THE LAST WITCHES OF ENGLAND ….. by John Callow is a wonderfully researched telling of the sad tale. During the 1600’s, Bideford was prosperous however there were many people who were extremely poor, especially women. I highly recommend this read which I read from cover to cover in one sitting then began again in earnest.

Often blamed for misfortune women throughout England were accused of witchcraft. The Pendle Witches in Lancashire hung in 1612, 70 years earlier, were also poor and had to beg to survive. By the late 1600’s however there was beginning to be a shift in the awareness of the fraudulent character of many of the accusations against these helpless women. Unfortunately for Temperance Lloyd, Susannah Edwards and Mary Trembles this awareness came too late.

The book begins …..

“𝒪𝓃 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓂𝑜𝓇𝓃𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝑜𝒻 𝒯𝒽𝓊𝓇𝓈𝒹𝒶𝓎 𝟤𝟫 𝒥𝓊𝓃𝑒 𝟣𝟨𝟪𝟤, 𝒶 𝓂𝒶𝑔𝓅𝒾𝑒 𝒸𝒶𝓂𝑒 𝓉𝒶𝓅𝓅𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒶𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝓌𝒾𝓃𝒹𝑜𝓌 𝑜𝒻 𝒶 𝓅𝓇𝑜𝓈𝓅𝑒𝓇𝑜𝓊𝓈 𝒟𝑒𝓋𝑜𝓃 𝓂𝑒𝓇𝒸𝒽𝒶𝓃𝓉.

Blessed Be

Crystalline blessings my fellow wyrdos …..

This weekend we have a very special and rare lunar occurrence. As you know from my pages the Dark Moon is the shadow that precedes a New Moon. Where there is a duo of New Moons in a calendar month we have a Black Moon. Far rarer than a Blue Moon, which is the Full Moon equivalent. Black Moons only occur every 33 months so you do the math!

So what does this mean for us ….?

The Black Moon will join us at 07.06 tomorrow morning in Virgo, teaching us that self-care and service go hand in hand and that small, mindful actions can make a big difference.

ᦓ ꪊ ꪀ ᦓ ꠸ ᧁ ꪀ …..
Virgo, the sign of the virgin is ruled by Mercury.

ᥴ ᥅ ꪗ ᦓ ꪻ ꪖ ꪶ ᦓ …..
BLACK MOONSTONE - evokes the soft, enveloping energies of the Dark Moon and the gentle positivity of the New Moon, guided by the wisdom of the Crone. It holds space for you to shed and emotionally detach, yet also enjoy the journey and be present in the moment.

LABRADORITE - is a highly magickal stone that connects to ravens and wolves. It supports your journey to spiritual freedom with guidance from Hekate and Kali.

BLACK OBSIDIAN - as a stone of shadow and mystery connects to The Morrighan and Hekate. As a dark mirror it can also help you reveal the true intentions of others including gossip and secrets that may cause problems if left undiscovered.

AMETHYST - is a stone of intuition and pairs beautifully with Clear Quartz to empower deeper working. Amethyst helps you to see what you have overlooked, providing guidance for the next steps!

GREEN AVENTURINE - encourages practically, a Virgo’s watchword. This stone of luck helps with organisation, schedules and routines, whilst encouraging mindfulness about what’s supporting your journey and what’s getting in your way.

CLEAR QUARTZ - as a master crystal is your ‘if in doubt’ choice everytine. Work with Clear Quartz at this time to discover what is no longer serving you and needs to be released and to set intentions to fill the new void.

ᥴꪮ᥅᥅ꫀᦓρꪮꪀᦔꫀꪀᥴꫀᦓ …..
DEITIES - Hekate, The Morrighan, Lilith, Cerridwen, Kali
HERBS - mugwort, wormwood, rosemary, bay, cypress

Shuffle your tarot cards and then find the Hermit card. Note which cards are on either side as these cards; left card is what you need to cast some light on while the card on the right shows what’s still hidden in the darkness.

Morning my lovelies …..

So I’m currently nearing the end of two wonderful weeks in glorious Kernow! I’ve seen clients, walked a lot with and without the dogs, met some new crystals and had some vip cuddle time with my main man, Dweezil.

I’m really excited for today’s events but now I leave you with this. It’s no secret that this whole year so far has been rather tumultuous and challenging and I still have some way to go. This really resonated when I saw it!

Reconnect to empower yourself …..

Full Moon blessings and salutations fellow moon gazies …..

In just a few short hours, at 08.54, our lady moon will reach fullness in the watery astrological sign of Aquarius.

The spiritual essence of the Aquarius Full Moon invites us to peel back the layers of our existence to reveal a deeper understanding of our roles in this life, while celebrating our unique weirdness. It sheds light on our latent abilities, igniting a spark within to embrace our uniqueness and contribute to our world. Get in touch with your intuition and get out of your headspace, you’ll know the right options to choose.

η α м є …..
Folklore tells us that, as the August Moon rises, she shares the night sky with Sirius the dog star. She is often known as Lightening Moon due to the frequent late-summer thunderstorms.

This moon goes by other names such as Lynx Moon, Corn Moon, Sturgeon Moon, Grain Moon, Red Moon, Swan’s Flight Moon, Barley Moon, Arbitration Moon, Bat’s Wings Moon, Erdrinious Moon, Moon of Encirclement, Tinne Moon and Women’s Moon.

ƈ ɛ Ɩ ɬ ı ƈ ơ ɠ ɧ ą ɱ …..
The Celtic Ogham names this the Holly Moon. It connects to justice, protection, healing, leadership, confidence, balance, mental clarity, generosity, and safe travel.

ʂ ƚ α ɾ ʂ ι ɠ ɳ ƚ α ɾ σ ƚ …..
In Tarot, Aquarius is represented in the major arcana by The Star (XVII). This card speaks of hope, faith, renewal, spiritual connection and intervention, trust and connection.

ɖ ɛ ı ɬ ı ɛ ʂ …..
You may choose to work with Hekate, Hathor, Mars, Nemesis, Thoth, Vulcan, Lugh, Holly King or Balor.

ƈ ɾ ყ ʂ ƚ α ʅ ʂ …..
CELESTITE - as the name suggests, links to our celestial team, be they guides, angels or loved ones in spirit. Celestite acts as a direct connection to call on advice and assistance when needed. It links to the element of air and enhances communication.

OCEAN JASPER - it’s a popular misconception the Aquarius is a water sign, being the ‘water bearer’ but I had to add this oceanic beauty in. Also known as Orbicular Jasper it is mostly mined along the shoreline in Madagascar. Its strong water connection acts like the tides; washing away anything no longer needed in your life. This brings a sense of renewal to the spirit and creates space for new things to enter your life.

BLUE JOHN FLUORITE - is found only in Derbyshire and links with the element of air and Aquarian’s ruling planet of Uranus. It supports in clear and inspired communication without the frills. Its joyful energy keeps things light so your words lift each other too.

LABRADORITE - and its mystical flash from reflected light echoes the energies of Aquarius and the Full Moon, like kindred spirits. For lucid day dreams keep a piece on you or pop under your pillow case for ‘out-of-this-world’ dream experience.

HELIODOR - this Beryl shines with the colour of golden grain. It helps us to recognise abundance all around us and connects us to all that is. The more connected and grateful you are, the more more you will have to be thankful for; the basic law of attraction. Heliodor is a stone of Magick that facilitates mystical experiences.

ʅ υ ɳ α ɾ ɾ ι ƚ υ α ʅ …..⁠
Create a comfortable sacred space, or work at your Altar. Once you have grounded and centred yourself light a stick of your favourite incense. The smoke represents the element of Air and carries your thoughts and words into the universe.

Connect with a piece of Celestite as you think about a statement or question you’d like to communicate to your guides and angelic team. Speak aloud into the incense smoke and visualise your message being carried out into the cosmos. Quiet your mind and hold the Celestite to your Crown or Throat chakras and wait for a reply until the incense is gone.

α ɳ ԃ ϝ ι ɳ α ʅ ʅ ყ …..
It's moon bath time for your crystals, divination and magickal tools. Remember to set them aside for a restorative and deep cleanse and maybe enchant some moonwater.

Let Aquarius shine a light on your inner rebellious kook …..

Morning magickal beings …..

The Lion’s Gate Portal has been steadily opening since the 28th July and today the gates are fully open, sharing the downloads of wisdom until 12th August.

The Lion’s Gate Portal is triggered when Sirius is closest to the Earth and aligns with the Spiritual Sun in Leo. Sirius, the Dog Star (incidentally the name of Keanu’s band) is the brightest star in the sky at night. In Ancient Egypt, Sirius linked to the Goddess Isis, who was revered for flooding the Nile and is associated with fertility and renewal.

The number 8 represents infinite possibility for abundance. Add to which August is the 8th month of the year; the 8th day of that month is believed to be super charged with this creation energy.

The Lions Gate is a time of increased cosmic energy flowing between the physical and spiritual realms.
This astrological and spiritual gateway has roots that go back to ancient Egypt and for thousands of years has been observed and honoured as a time of a great energetic influx and activation!

We will receive huge 'downloads' and activations of extremely high frequency energy which will assist, enlarge and enhance our spiritual awakening, and super charge our awareness.

This alignment creates a portal through which we receive potent messages in the form of Light Codes. These can be anything from divine downloads, sudden flashes of inspiration or awareness, a serendipitous meeting, ethereal messages and energetic activations. Be open to tuning into, feeling and receiving this great surge and expansion of high energy.

I love to work with my Lemurian crystals at this time, especially my Golden Lemurian but a favourite Clear Quartz point or sunny Citrine, will more than suffice for powerful manifestation.

Tomorrow brings with it the Dog Day’s Moon in Aquarius so use all this fabulous energy to your benefit …..

Bright Blessings from Kernow! A beautiful welcome to August and the first harvest one and all …..

Lughnasadh or Lammas is the cross-quarter festival marking the midpoint between Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox. This sacred pause is where the Wheel of the Year begins to tip slowly toward the dark, but for now we are still standing in the golden light. Here the Goddess aspects the Harvest Mother while the Green Man steps out as John Barleycorn.

c r y s t a l s …..
Set your Altar or sacred space up with the colours of yellow, gold, green and orange and candles of the same. Flowers can be meadowsweet and sunflowers plus any fallen nuts and heads of grain. Some basic go-to’s are Citrine and Carnelian but let’s look a bit deeper.

RED JASPER - lends strength and energy to the physical, so it’s great for boosting the metabolism. Placed under your pillow an help you recall dreams. As a stone of the root chakra it aids grounding, meditation and supports the gentle awakening of Kundalini energy. This strongly protective stone can help drive away unwelcome energies.

PIETERSITE - Pietersite is characterised by its distinctive swirls or streaks of gold or orange, due to the crocidolite. It is only found in Henan Province, China (more brown appearance) and Namibia, South Africa (more blue). It’s often known as the Tempest Stone because of its stormy appearance. This stormy energy purges old patterns from the body, mind and spirit whilst imparting insight and bolstering confidence so we embrace change like we embrace the storm. It reminds us of the innate connection between the self and the Universe.

SHUNGITE - is a dynamic grounding stone that helps to filter out the unnecessary so we can focus on the important. Shungite works in a similar way in water by catalysing purification and restoring balance and structure. It is protective on many levels and can be used to prevent disruptions of your life path from varying sources. Meditation with Shungite encourages decisions that help you fulfil your purpose here on Earth.

PYRITE - also known as ‘fool’s gold’ gets its name from ‘oyr’, the Greek word meaning fire. It has strong uses for protection amulets, abundance, healing and adornments. Magickally it also helps break down and release owl patterns, cleanses, helps with perseverance and confidence.

BAKE - bread or a fruit pie. Inscribe sigils before baking and share with friends and family. Always dedicate the first slice as an offering

COLLECT - sunflowers and kids go hand in hand. Sunflowers are emblems of Lughnasadh so collect and dry them in the sun, ready for next year's planting. Consider giving them as gifts at Samhain or Yule.

CREATE - the men cutting the corn would save a few stalks for themselves, created to wear on their jacket at the harvest dance. Do check out YouTube for lots of helpful videos to get you creating in no time.

FEAST - our ancestors celebrated nearly every holiday with large feasts. Invite friends and family over and focus on recently harvested food - corn cobs, salads, veggies, home made bread and pies etc. Drink berry cordials and juices for the kids, beer and cider for the grownups.

GET OUTSIDE - Yesterday, once the sea mist cleared the dogs and I headed out for a lunchtime walk here in the Cornish countryside with the smell of sea salt just over the burrows to wend our way home through fields of golden barley.

This time of first gathering has so much abundance in our hedgerows and fields. Why not take time out for a walk today? What can you see, hear, touch, smell taste and feel? I’ve added some nature notes in the photos so feel free to add yours in the comments.

May your harvests, spiritual and material, be bountiful ….. and so it is!
