Good morning everyone.
Im heading to a very cramped office (feeling blessed and thankful) to start invoicing.

12/06/2024

Hello dearies,
Your GoodWitch here.
Tis, Friday. You know what that means. End of our week and invoicing day. So this week yall shopped like happy elves .Invoicing will take a long time so please be patient .
As I said on the live shows I'll be combining last week and this weeks purchases as much as I can to save you on shipping. Just know some of you already have some heeeeeavy boxs so it will be just smarter to start another. One this will insure safe arrival of items and easier on your backs getting it into your doors.

The Christmas Tree Fairy ~ Cicely Mary Barker, 1923

The little Christmas Tree was born
And dwelt in open air;
It did not guess how bright a dress
Some day its boughs would wear;
Brown cones were all, it thought, a tall
And grown-up Fir would bear.

O little Fir! Your forest home
Is far and far away;
And here indoors these boughs of yours
With coloured balls are gay,
With candle-light, and tinsel bright,
For this is Christmas Day!

A dolly-fairy stands on top,
Till children sleep; then she
(A live one now!) from bough to bough
Goes gliding silently.
O magic sight, this joyous night!
O laden, sparkling tree!

Cicely Mary Barker was an English illustrator. Since the first publication of her Flower Fairies in 1923, they have enchanted both adults and children alike around the world. The botanically accurate drawings in the 170 original illustrations, coupled with the enchanting fairy images based on real children from Cicely’s sister’s nursery school, appeal to our innate sense of magic and wonder.

Originally accompanied by a poem or verse dedicated to the individual Flower Fairy the charming characters and detailed artwork have also been translated into fiction for young readers as well as the New York Times bestselling Fairyopolis series.

Get ready, it's Krampusnacht! Our German friends sure know how to keep the holiday exciting, don't they? So, here's the drill - on December 5th (the eve of St. Nicholas Day), sweet old St. Nick goes around, filling kiddos' shoes with candies and gifts! But beware, the mischievous Krampus isn't far behind, ready to teach a lesson to those who haven't been their best! Want to know more? https://www.farmersalmanac.com/scary-christmas-characters

Day 2
December 2: Light a Candle for Intentions
Light a candle and focus on what you’d like to release or renew as the year draws to a close. Let the flame symbolize the returning light of the sun and your personal growth.

While focusing on the flame, I said,
As this flame burns bright,
I release what no longer serves me,
And welcome the light of renewal.
With the sun’s return, so too shall I grow,
Stronger, clearer, and aligned with my path.
By fire's warmth, I transform.
So it is, and so it shall be.

Mars Retrograde begins on December 6 and will run all the way until February 23.

Mars retrogrades the least out of all the planets, making this a noteworthy time!

Mars Retrogrades guides us to recalibrate what motivates us and what we are choosing to expend our time and effort on. This is a time to take inventory of how we are choosing to live our lives, and who we are choosing to show up as.

We have a rare opportunity here to step into our more authentic selves and to open our hearts to something more aligned with our soul.

Happy Krampusnacht!
