I foraged in my yard today. I gathered a bunch of pine boughs. I'm making homemade Pinesol. Just stuff your greens into a Mason jar, and fill with white Vinegar. Let it steep for several weeks then strain. That's it. Just thought I would share another use and hopefully it helps someone out.

12/31/23 rambles read it or don’t ❤️
Reflection: I dropped out of school when I was a junior in high school, life took a different road for me. I took the university of life road until age 26 then I went to college! I was not traditional, which I believe is a blessing! Nothing wrong with traditional values as we have created some of our own! In the university of life I was always observing my surroundings and questioning the world and its values! There are values that make us better everywhere. I enjoy learning about other people and their values and way of life! I always ask myself many things but these are a few that sit with me daily! Diversity! What does it mean in your life? Sovereignty! What does it mean in your life? Money!What does it mean in your life? Love! What does it mean in your life? Does family have to be blood? If they aren’t blood do you treat them differently? Answers——In our home we are Raising individuals not Conformists, to think for yourself, be kind but don’t take s**t, stand up for others, be including of others you may learn something and be accepting to others, we are all learning who we are no matter what age, if your not you are probably stuck in a continuous cycle of rut. If you feel left out it’s probably because you are called to make change! Or you just don’t fit in the operation of things and that is ok because it to will work out!! Open doors, say thank you and you’re welcome! Say you’re sorry when you know your suppose too. Above all be you! Stand in your truth! Not everyone will like you and that’s their problem not yours. People will always be jealous again not your problem, think of it as a
complement or as something you need to change within yourself! We are all special, no one person is more important than another. Because we are suppose to work together in our specialties, not divided! If you feel unhappy you will find peace and transformation if you choose to! Be Resilient! If you are grateful spread the love. If I had my life to do all over again this far, I would not, my experiences have turned me into who I am to this point. I treat people the way they treat me. Or the way I would like to be treated. If someone seems interesting but you fear them or think you don’t like them chances are you have something to learn from them and they have something to learn from you. Don’t assume you just don’t like them take a moment and remember we are all human. You aren’t better than the person next to you we all have a choice and a chance. The mind and love is a powerful tool use it. Life is short and you can’t take it with you but you can leave an impression on people! What kind of impressions would you leave? The mind is so powerful what we think becomes!!!Above All HAVE FUN it’s not that serious. Much love and bless you 12/31/23. ❤️

Beltane blessings to all.

Beltane is a major Pagan festival called a Sabbat. It is the union of the God and Goddess. The word Beltane means Bel's Fire or Bright Fire. It is named after the God Bel an ancient Celtic Sun God. It is primarily a fire festival and it is traditional to build a fire on Beltane night to honour the Sun Gods.

Beltane is a fertility festival, This is the time when the God and Goddess come together, The God plants his seed and the Goddess will become pregnant with the harvest to come in the next few months. Beltane is the height of Spring and the beginning of Summer. Earths energy is very strong and potent at the minute with new life is blossoming and blooming everywhere you look. Beltane is the start of the farming calendar.

Fire is believed to have purifying qualities, it cleanses and rejuvenates both the land and the people. The ritual welcoming of the sun and the lighting of the fires was also believed to ensure fertility of the land and the people. Animals were transferred from winter pens to summer pastures, and were driven between the Beltane fires to cleanse them of evil spirits and to bring fertility and a good milk yield.

In Celtic times it would be traditional to build a big bonfire in the centre of the village and have a big feast, young men and women would dance around the maypole, the pole represents the God while the ribbons wrapped around the pole represent the Goddess. On Beltane many people would marry in a handfasting (Pagan wedding) People wishing to find love or conceive would jump over a Belfire for luck in love and fertility.

Light a small belfire on Beltane and make wishes into the flames. Let the fire burn itself out. Burn anything that has negative connotations in the fire. You can also write down any messages we want to tell passed loved ones and burn them in the Belfire and the message is said to reach them in the Summerlands.

On our alters we would put things that are of polarity to represent the God and Goddess, Sun and Moon, Male and Female, Masculine and Feminine, light and dark. Black, yellow, orange or gold candles to represent the God and white, blue and silver candles to represent the Goddess. Fill your alters with birds feathers that fall around at this time and any wild plants that have sprouted.

On Beltane we celebrate the abundance of the earth, it is a happy time when we give thanks for all we have in our lives and look forward to the bright sunny days ahead. We celebrate the coming together of the God and the Goddess and the gifts they will bestow upon the earth when the Goddess will become pregnant and give birth to the harvest to come.

May your Beltane be memorable and your hearts and spirits be filled to overflowing. May the God and Goddess watch over you.
