I love decorating for this day. You would, if you visited, find bats, Witches, skeletons, scarecrows, and ghosts peeking out of every pot, pan, bowl, closet, drawer, and bookshelf in the house. One of my favorite traditions at this time of year is to carve pumpkins. Sometimes I carve one large pumpkin. But more often, I will carve three smaller pumpkins, each with a different expression. Plenty of Halloween books, magazines, and articles offer ideas for carving methods and creative designs. I like to turn my carving into a ritual. I gather all my carving tools, my pumpkins, and my ritual tools. I cast a circle and ask angels of creativity for inspiration. Sometimes, I have designs worked out on paper ahead of time. Most often, I take the advice of sculptors: They let what is inside the stone or clay come out. In other words, I let the spirit of the pumpkin express itself. It’s not easy, as words are more natural to me than artwork. But it is always rewarding. The innards become pumpkin pies or pumpkin cookies. Some of the seeds are toasted, and some of the seeds are given as offerings to the spirit of pumpkin and to the angels. Every year’s pumpkins are different, because the spirit of each pumpkin is unique. Each pumpkin is a living being. The merry expressions lit by candlelight fill my home with joy and blessings.<br /><br />...by: Cerridwen Iris SheaFaeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-20265594900950368252009-10-31T11:00:00.001-05:002009-10-31T11:03:46.675-05:00Hallows Blessing<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Suxf0qN2_fI/AAAAAAAAAWo/XsxIIw9xjjo/s1600-h/67861_Dancing_Witch_1000_122_570lo_122_570lo.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 204px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Suxf0qN2_fI/AAAAAAAAAWo/XsxIIw9xjjo/s320/67861_Dancing_Witch_1000_122_570lo_122_570lo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398795411600637426" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><pre style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /><br />To those whose feet are stilled<br />And those who laugh with us no more<br />To you we say, our love was with you here<br />And goes with you hence<br />To that place where you rest and revel.<br /><br />May the dark Lord and sweet Lady<br />Guide your feet along the rocky paths<br />To the place where all is fresh and green<br />And lover, friends and ancestors wait<br />With open arms to greet you.<br />Go in peace, and with our blessing<br />Be rested and return when the Lady deems it fit<br />With the countless turns of the Great Wheel<br />We shall miss you<br />We shall meet you again in the green places of Her domain.<br /><br />....author unknown </span></pre></div>Faeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-26442203013363470912009-10-30T12:25:00.002-05:002009-10-30T12:27:07.651-05:00Honor departed<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Sush077PDVI/AAAAAAAAAWg/o68U1q_Wwgg/s1600-h/Picture+100.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Sush077PDVI/AAAAAAAAAWg/o68U1q_Wwgg/s320/Picture+100.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398445771656727890" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><br />On this night we honor all the departed souls.....we extinguish the<br />Fire, then relight it, and invite our beloved ancestors, and the<br />Mighty Dead of our tribes, to share our fire, laughter and love this<br />night.<br /><br /><br />-unknown<br /></div>Faeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-66930690991554493802009-10-30T08:09:00.000-05:002009-10-30T12:24:14.125-05:00Pumpkins<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/StnCLvXa75I/AAAAAAAAAWA/6d70t-DW4Ss/s1600-h/Picture+093.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/StnCLvXa75I/AAAAAAAAAWA/6d70t-DW4Ss/s320/Picture+093.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393555535701929874" border="0" /></a><br />We picked these gorgeous pumpkins.

I'm also setting out any old pictures I might have of my grandparents and other family members too.<br />-Carol<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Honoring Ancestors<br /></div><br />Autumn is the season when the dark of the year arrives. It is a time to turn inward and reflect on our ancestors and on those we love who have crossed to the other side of the veil. Begin building energy to welcome your loved ones on Samhain by placing photos or mementos of them on a table, bookshelf, or windowsill in the east area of a room. (East is the direction associated with ancestors and family.) Along with ancestral photos, you may want to include goddess images of Hecate, Cerridwen, Kali, Inanna, or Cybele. Samhain is when the goddess enters her crone aspect as Dark Mother and Wise One. She takes away what she has created, but in her dark womb is the seed of the next New Year. All that is old is new again.<br />by SedwinFaeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-72945979495379076572009-10-14T06:03:00.000-05:002009-10-14T16:22:52.225-05:00Witch Mix<object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rfx0W8Z06fg&hl=en&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Rfx0W8Z06fg&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object>Faeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-90728131109164472672009-10-12T09:02:00.002-05:002009-10-12T09:08:24.987-05:00Zombieland<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/StM3WJYknVI/AAAAAAAAAVo/VeM8gfhD-Jo/s1600-h/a-zombieland-woody.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 209px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/StM3WJYknVI/AAAAAAAAAVo/VeM8gfhD-Jo/s320/a-zombieland-woody.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5391714032508247378" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Well, I finally got to see Zombieland!

I have lots of Halloween images and Samhain spells saved up. I'm going to work on doing some of these in preparation of Samhain and I'm going to try and share them with you as well! I'm going to start off by freshening up the place and clearing the air-<br /><br />Clearing Your Home Spell<br /><br />Samhain is almost upon us. The indoor season will soon follow. To prepare for this we should do a clearing, so that stagnant energies cannot build up during the dormant time of the year. Set up a tray with a censer containing sage incense, a bell, and a small bowl with blessed water containing basil. You will also need your besom. Walk through your home in a clockwise manner beginning at the front door and ending at the back. Enter the first room and waft the sage smoke everywhere. Dip your fingers in the water and sprinkle it about. Next, walk the room in a clockwise fashion ringing the bell. Take your besom and sweep any leftover energy to the door saying: “I sweep the bad out, and good remains throughout.”<br />by: Tammy Sullivan<br /><br />Samhain Blessings!<br />-CarolFaeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-5242478272159237192009-10-05T05:42:00.002-05:002009-10-05T05:45:09.975-05:00Fright Fest Night<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/SsnN4mnTgSI/AAAAAAAAAUw/0cK4c69uL5I/s1600-h/DSCF3260.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/SsnN4mnTgSI/AAAAAAAAAUw/0cK4c69uL5I/s320/DSCF3260.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389064801447280930" border="0" /></a>We spent some time this weekend at Great Adventure in NJ.

The sky was amazing. My sister and I went with all our kids. We nibbled along the way, picked raspberries, tons of apples and pumpkins too! We have the day off from school today, so I'm hoping to make some candy apples!<br /><br />I went to one of my favorite sites for <a href="http://www.magialuna.net/a.html"> herbs</a> and found this info on apples-<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="color:#949cce;">Apples may be incorporated into any ritual in which one wishes to give honor to a god or goddess of fertility. Dried seeds and bark may be powdered and burned as incense. Apples may be eaten, or the juice shared in the ritual cup when seeking knowledge through the Tree of Life, an act requesting wisdom from the deities. The Apple may also be used as a symbol of security. Apples are often associated with good luck. (If you cut an Apple in half horizontally and look where the seed cavity is you'll see it produces a five pointed star) The Apple is believed to improve one's spirits and elevate one's happiness. </span></span><br /><br />-CarolFaeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4787914975114459836.post-58066160580934879782009-09-25T05:42:00.005-05:002009-09-25T05:49:02.410-05:00Autumn Leaf Magick<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Sryf7wB3b1I/AAAAAAAAAT4/oQKpvTZCyMI/s1600-h/Autumn+Leaf.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 273px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_SZ7uQxeiBEY/Sryf7wB3b1I/AAAAAAAAAT4/oQKpvTZCyMI/s320/Autumn+Leaf.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385355103282098002" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span class="postbody"><br />I found this simple autumn magick, the leaves are really beginning to change here already! It's been hard to catch up here, I went back to work, since I work in a school and then football practice started. Practice 4 times a week! Running.... It will slow down soon.....<br /><br />Autumn Leaf Magick<br />In the fall, write a secret wish upon a fallen leaf. Choose a leaf with red colors for a wish pertaining to matters of love, sex, passion, or health. A gold-colored leaf for wishes involving money, a brown one for protection, a purple one for healing, an orange one for energy, a yellow one for confidence, attraction, or persuasion, a green one for fertility, success, or good luck.<br /><br />Fold the leaf in half, or roll it up and seel it with a kiss. Using the flame of a white candle set the leaf on fire. As it burns, visualize your wish comming true for you.<br />-unknown<br /><br />-Carol<br /></span>Faeriely Odd Witcheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09688704918293814089noreply@blogger.com4
