They’ve arrived
and they are already settling in.

We are so excited to welcome a new basket of poppets into the shop.

Each one is lovingly stitched with intention, charm, and a little bit of mischief. These are not mass made decorations. They are symbolic helpers with a long folk magick history, created to hold intention and act as companions for healing, protection, manifestation, or simple everyday magick.

Every poppet is one of a kind. Different colors, different stitching, different personalities. Some wear little hats. Some look a bit wild. All of them are waiting for the right home.

Some people work with poppets in ritual or place them on altars. Others keep them nearby as enchanted companions. There is no wrong way to welcome one.

If you feel drawn to one, trust that.

They are here now and available for adoption.
And yes
they promise to behave. Mostly.

Today the Earth is closest to the Sun.
It’s called Perihelion.

Even in the heart of winter
even when the light feels far away
we are nearer to it than we realize.

There’s a shared candle on the altar today.
A heart flame.
For ancestors.
For intuition.
For the quiet light you carry within.

If you feel called
you’re welcome to light a small candle around it.
No wishes required.
Just a moment of presence.

Em is here today offering palm readings
honoring what we carry in our hands
and the stories written into us long before now.

If you stop in today
pause for a moment.
Feel the warmth.
Even now
we are held by light.

🤍✨

Tonight holds a quiet kind of magick.

We are under the Wolf Moon, the first full moon of the year. Long before calendars and clocks, this moon marked the deep heart of winter. When nights were long, fires were tended carefully, and wolves could be heard calling to one another across the cold. Not from fear. From connection.

At the same time, Earth has just reached Perihelion, the point in our yearly journey when we are closest to the Sun. I love that detail. In the coldest, darkest stretch of winter, we are actually nearer to the light than we will be all year.

It reminds me how often warmth is closer than it feels.

This pairing feels important. The Moon drawing close to us. The Sun quietly holding us near. A reminder that even when life feels stripped back and quiet, we are not far from what sustains us.

The Wolf Moon asks us to remember our instincts. Our voice. Our people. It is about survival, yes, but also about belonging. About knowing when to stand alone and when to call out to the pack.

If you feel tender tonight, that makes sense.
If you feel reflective, that makes sense.
If you feel steady and calm, that makes sense too.

Nothing is required of you.

If you feel called, light a candle. Stand near a window or step outside for a moment. Place a hand over your heart and simply breathe. Let yourself remember that you are closer to the light than you think.

This is not a night for forcing intentions or pushing forward. It is a night for listening. For warming yourself from the inside out. For beginning the year gently, with awareness and care.

May this Wolf Moon remind you that you are held.
May Perihelion remind you that light is nearer than it appears.
And may this year unfold with steadiness, truth, and quiet strength.

JANUARY READINGS SCHEDULE

January has opened softly here at The Craft.
The candles are lit, the kettle is warm, and the year ahead feels like it’s stretching out slowly instead of demanding to be rushed.

I wanted to share our January rhythm with you so you can plan your visits and your moments of reflection.

On January 3 and again on January 17, Em will be in the shop offering palmistry readings. Palmistry has such an intimate way of meeting us right where we are. The lines we carry tell stories of who we’ve been and where we’re leaning next.

On January 10, I will be offering Priestess Readings with a Year Ahead focus. These are gentle, intentional sessions meant to help you sit with the path unfolding in front of you. Not rushed. Not predictive in a loud way. Just a steady conversation with the year you’re stepping into.

And on January 24, Kolby will be here offering mediumship readings. These sessions hold space for connection, comfort, and the quiet messages that often arrive when we finally slow down enough to listen.

January doesn’t ask us to sprint.
It invites us to settle in, take stock, and choose our steps with care.

If you feel called to sit at the table with us this month, we’ll be here.
Candles burning.
Doors open.
Space held.

🤍

As this year exhants its final breath, may there be a blessing upon all that it carried.
May the lessons settle kindly.
May the joy linger.
May what was heavy be laid gently down.

As we stand at the threshold of a new year, my heart is full. To our customers, our community, our familiar faces and new friends who crossed our path this year, thank you. Thank you for choosing this little sanctuary. Thank you for trusting us with your stories, your curiosity, your healing, and your magick. Thank you for showing up, again and again, and making The Craft what it truly is. A living, breathing community.

This past year was shaped by shared moments. Quiet conversations. Laughter. Reflection. Ritual. Growth. Each of you has left your imprint here, and we are deeply grateful for every step taken together.

As we welcome the turning of the year, we look forward to what is yet to come. New offerings. Deeper connection. More moments of meaning and intention. May the year ahead meet you gently and may you walk into it held and supported.

Please note that we will be closed on our usual Wednesday, New Year’s Eve, and also closed on New Year’s Day as we take time to rest, reflect, and honor the turning of the wheel.

From my heart to yours, thank you for a beautiful year. May the coming one be filled with warmth, clarity, and quiet magick.

With gratitude and blessing,

The Craft Team ✨

🔔Just Arrived: Guardian Bells 🔔

Our Guardian Bells have officially arrived, and we are so excited to share them with you! We have many different styles available, each one unique and full of meaning. Guardian bells are traditionally used for protection, believed to help ward off negative energy and bring safe travels to the one who carries them.

They’re especially popular for motorcycles and bikes, making them a meaningful and thoughtful gift for riders who value both symbolism and safety on the road. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for the perfect gift for someone with a bike, these bells make a beautiful and intentional choice.

Supplies are limited, so be sure to come grab yours while they last! 🔔✨

Blessed Monday, Friends!

We have a little surprise for you this Christmas week. While The Craft is usually closed on Mondays, and we’ll be resting with our loved ones on Wednesday and Thursday to celebrate Yule and Christmas, today we’re opening our doors for a few hours of unexpected holiday magick. ✨

Feel free to drop by today, Monday, for some last-minute gifts and a cozy moment of calm. We’ll be here from
11 AM to 3 PM, just to add a little extra sparkle for those last-minute shoppers.

As a reminder, we’ll be closed on Christmas Eve (Wednesday) and Christmas Day (Thursday) so that our team can enjoy the holiday season with their families. We’ll be back to our normal hours on Friday. Wishing you all the warmth and joy of the season, and we hope to see some of you today if you’d like a little extra magick before the holidays.

Blessings,
Priestess Tiffany and The Craft Team

Tonight is Yule, the Winter Solstice.

It is the longest night of the year, the moment when the sun reaches its lowest point and quietly changes direction. From this night forward, the light begins to return. Not all at once. Not dramatically. Just a little at a time.

Most people expect this moment to feel bright. Motivating. Full of answers.

But Yule rarely feels that way.

It often feels still. Heavy. Quiet. Like standing in a dim room before the lamps are lit.

And that is exactly how it is meant to feel.

Yule is not about forcing joy into the dark. It is about honoring the dark for carrying us here. Long before calendars and resolutions, people gathered on this night to tend fires, share warmth, and trust that the sun would return even if they could not feel it yet.

This is a season of listening. Of noticing what has become too heavy to carry. Of simplifying. Of protecting the small, steady things that will grow stronger as the days slowly lengthen.

If you feel tired right now, you are not behind.
If clarity feels like quiet instead of answers, that is normal.
If all you want is rest, that is wisdom.

A simple Yule ritual for this evening

You do not need anything special. One candle is enough.

As night falls, dim the lights in your space and light your candle. Sit with it for a few moments. Notice the way the flame holds steady without rushing, without effort.

You might reflect on the past season. What has been heavy. What has taught you something. What no longer needs to be carried into the growing light.

Then, quietly or silently, say

I honor the dark that has carried me.
I welcome the return of the light in its own time.
I release what cannot come with me.
I tend what is meant to last.

Sit with the flame as long as you like. When you are ready, let the candle burn safely or extinguish it with gratitude.

A Yule blessing

May this longest night bring you rest, not pressure.
May the returning light find you gently.
May what no longer serves you fall away with ease.
May what is meant to grow be warmed, slowly and surely.

From all of us here at The Craft, we wish you a peaceful and blessed Yule.

The light is returning.
There is no need to rush it.
