Welcome to Herb Majicks! Welcome to ceremonial and ritual tools with integrity.

I take enormous pride in my work, and hope that you'll find something
in this catalog that you like. I also can create custom orders; email and let me know what you're looking for. This is pretty much
a one-witch-show: I am R & D, gardener, wildcrafter, formulator, blender, QC, order desk, shipping department, and
now web mistress. My partner Cee, Goddess Bless her, is my bookeeper-arithromancer extrordinaire. She very sweetly
puts up with my peculiar obsessions and will just as sweetly give you a hand with your orders and questions if I
am unavailable. Take a look around and check back often: new items are being loaded every week. I look forward to working Majick with you. Blessed Be!
The Circle
is cast, the Fire is lit; let the ritual begin.
Thank you for supporting woman-owned
small business!

Of Rain and Blood"Ah. lilac. Hawthorn.
Rhododendron. Azalea. Cherry, apple, plum, wild strawberry. Periwinkle. Camas. Shooting Star.
Calla, daphne, alyssum, lithadora. Bluebell. Violet. Salmonberry.
The child-grown-to-Maiden is clothed
in beauty and sweet scents--Her step is light, Her eyes shine and Her body is lithe and singing. Hummingbirds,
butterflies and bees pay Her homage, drink from Her sweet well and are summoned to Love.
We celebrate the coming of the
May Queen with a festival in Her honor: we will dance the Maypole, weaving together the colors of our inspiration and
leap the Beltane Fire to purify our relationships and draw from the Fire that which we need to further love in our lives.
The Maiden calls upon us to awaken to our sexuality, love, and desire and to delight in all our senses." ~
excerpt from letter to Circle members, 1994.
As I write today--a sunny
April day in midst of many chilly, dramatically stormy days--my thoughts swim ever towards the nexus of rain
and fecundity.
I am thinking of how Life came into Be-ing in the proverbial primordial goo, dancing it's water
ballet in that great, global oceanic enveloping mantle. Of how the Be-ingness pranced up onto the beaches and carried
on squishingly through allegro, pas de deux and mohini attam on to thunderous zybetikos.
I
am thinking about how water cycles around this planet every day, in every way. Of how the Water of Life is in me as much as
it is in Lake Moran or the Bay of Fundy or Okeefenokee Swamp or Nisqually Glacier or Ganges River.
I am
thinking of as many of the sacred-spiritual-mystery-profane symbols I can in which water figures as THE flow between pure
spirit and muddy humanity.
I am thinking of blood. Of woman's blood. Of all the blood shed
by all the women of Earth. Of the sacredness of that blood. Of the entire Earth drenched and quenched and nourished
and flourishing in the blood of Woman. I am thinking that blood-time may be the oldest ritual there is in
human history. How could it not be?
While we have been celebrating Beltane as the 'marriage' of the God and
Goddess, planting the maypole in a hole in the ground, dancing and weaving and singing and leaping the fire, and telling the
stories of days gone by when pastoral peoples lay down together on the plowed fields to make for a fertile season,
I am certain that we have forgotten something even though we had fun.
How does a child suddenly confront us as the
Maid ready to meet her Consort? There is a rite of passage we've been missing, a change in the weather which requires
special consideration (yes, I am thinking of an umbrella here even if no one I know ever uses one). April showers
bring May flowers and menarche brings the possibility of motherhood. Without the blood no fertility is present.
Without the blood, no Life. Without the rain...
How will you celebrate the Maid this year?
Beltane incense on sale, 15% off. Prices good until 12:00 midnight Pacific Daylight Savings Time, Saturday May 1st 2010.
Blessed Be,
