NEW MOON NEWS from Natural Magick Shop WITH REBATES!

My dear Natural Magicians,
The Spring is a very productive time, for Nature and also for Natural Magick Shop! This New Moon News will be about creativity and REBATE DISCOUNTS! But first!

Natural Magick Shop is applying for a small business grant though Mission Main Street, and I need your help! Please vote for NMS; I need 250 votes by June 19th in order to qualify. You will need to be on FaceBook in order to vote. 

Many folks may think Natural Magick Shop is wildly successful because it's been around so long, and is just so cool, but really it is a hand-to-mouth operation, and I struggle to keep it going. Thanks for your help, and your orders!

This leads me to ask, dear friends, what new directions would you like to see Natural Magick Shop go? What would bring YOU to shop here more? Video instruction, books, and Tarot decks? Other manufacturer's products like ritual jewelry and altar supplies? More raw materials for DIY potioning? I have to grow to thrive, and my growth has always been an alchemy my ideas and YOUR creative inspiration. So let me have it! You are my most highly regarded Muse!

Which leads me back to the Spring and creativity and inspiration!

As some of you know, I grow a lot of herbs for Natural Magick Shop. April and May are when I do much of the harvest, for Melissa, Spearmint, Mullein, the rare Dittany of Crete, Wild Lettuce, Sage, Lavender flowers and Cinquefoil. There are just some things that I can grow quite well here in central Texas, and the quality of my home-grown is often much higher than I can get from my wholesalers. There are also plant products I wildcraft, like the flowers of Huisache, my wild Acacia tree. It does take more time and labor of course, and successful harvest is not guaranteed. Right now I am watching a huge crop of Dittany of Crete in danger of mildewing before I can harvest, because our Spring has been uncharacteristically wet and rainy. Last year was a drought year and there was a total crop failure of Huisache. I had to change the recipe of Psychic Phenomenon Dream Pillow accordingly. This year I had a bumper crop of Huisache flowers, but as you see, Natural Magick has to change and adapt to survive both changes of climate and changes of economy. Risk is a part of every venture. And as they say, necessity is the Mother of Invention!

You folks, as I said are my Muses, and every time one of you requests a new devotional oil, it takes me on a creative journey of study and invention. For example, a cluster of devotees to the Greek pantheon who live in Arizona have been my Muses this year, leading me to develop or finish my Deity oils for Hades, Ares, Hebe, and Pythia this year. Hestia was the request of an Austin local witch last year. So as I go deeper into the well of the Western Tradition, the creative Muse comes forth! Other potions for the Muse can be found in my blog article on magick of Creativity.

Okay here is the discount REBATE DEAL!: Place an order of $50 or more that includes even just one of these new Greek potions or anything from the Creativity article, and you get a rebate of $5.00! (You already get free stuff for orders of $30 or more but now you get a rebate as well!) Just place the order and I will refund you $5, which you may spend in any creative endeavor of your choice. This offer is good for the rest of the month of May.

NEW MOON NEWS from Natural Magick Shop WITH DISCOUNTS!

My dear Natural Magicians, Happy Spring Equinox!

What a lovely occasion it is when the Vernal Equinox falls on the New Moon. It is an extra-special time for fresh starts! 

I will definitely be using the rest of today and the upcoming week for some Spring cleaning. I have discounted a number of my products that might help you do the same! Follow any link below to buy at the discounted prices for the first week of Spring!
 
Before I get going on that cluttered desk, I will start up with one of the Fresh Start candles. These are infused with the same essential oil blend I use in the New Moon magick oil and New Moon candles. The only difference is in the manufacture timing. The New Moon products are made on the evening of the New Moon (tonight) and the Fresh Start is made on the Wednesday or Sunday immediately following the New Moon, to add the Planetary signatures. I thought the Fresh Start labels might be more appealing to, hmm, less witchy practitioners. Does anybody think I should add a Fresh Start oil to the magick oils for the same reason?

For Spring cleaning purposes, the lemony-fresh scent of Van Van formulations are hard to beat. This traditional blend is so useful that I incorporate it into three forms of product: Van Van oil for direct anointing, Van Van candles for providing a blessing and renewing ambiance or for candle magick workings, Van Van floor wash for getting down into the baseboards, and Van Van room spray for a blast of freshness. ALL DISCOUNTED FOR THE FIRST WEEK OF SPRING!
 
Once I clear off that desk and get everything filed, mailed and sorted, I will decide if I want to use Altar oil or Blessing oil to wipe it clean, and clear away the stale chi my procrastinations have caused. If you think about it, many of us spend so much time at our desks, that this most functional and mundane piece of furniture becomes infused with our attention and energies...an altar! If I treat my desk as an altar, everything that issues from it becomes transformed from burden to blessing! 

By the time you get this, it might be too late to incorporate Ostara oil or Ostara incense to your Equinox observation, but I'm offering the same discount, since they are just all around nice scents for Spring and also, Ostara blends would also be appropriate for any Easter celebration. I'd be happy to label them "Easter oil" or Easter incense" for you, just make a note on your order. 

Happy Spring everyone!
