Today is the New Moon 🌑 which marks the Chinese New Year!🎋🏮🧧 We have officially begun The Year of the Fire Horse!🔥🐎 We started the day off with a Full Solar Eclipse bringing us a Ring of Fire visible in Antarctica, a perfect ending, a completion of the Year of The Wood Snake, and beautiful beginning to this next cycle, next chapter! As we reset our energy and welcome in the blessings of the year ahead, I thought I would share some simple movements to help keep our energy flowing, passed down from Grandmothers and Grandfathers in China. Enjoy!🎊

Shamanism is one of the oldest forms of healing and divination on the planet, spanning across cultures and continents for thousands of years. At its core it is a deep connection and understanding of nature and working with the wisdom and energies found there. A Shaman undergoes training to be a bridge between the Earth realms and the realms of Spirit, being able to travel within those realms via journeywork to meet, communicate, and work with Spirit Guides and Ancestors for guidance, insight, and healing.

This journey will be a bit different than ones we have done in the past. We will start the afternoon off with setting sacred space, reflecting on all the Year of the Wood Snake has held, and will work with the energy of the waning moon to lovingly release the remaining bits that are ready to be shed in the final days of the Year of the Wood Snake. Please take some time prior to our time together to reflect on what you wish to release at this time. We will then take a guided journey together on the beat of a ceremonial drum, to meet our Spirit Guides and the Spirit Totem of Horse to gain insight on what we collectively need to welcome the energetic shift the year ahead will bring. Horse brings a different skillset, wisdom, and medicine than that of Snake, we will look at how its perspective and energy can guide us as we are about to enter The Year of the Fire Horse on the New Moon on February 17th, 2026. We will discuss the energetics of the element of Fire in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which is the branch of herbalism originating in China, and how we can work with these energies along with those of Horse for our highest good along our respective paths.

Bring a blanket, pillow, yoga mat or sleeping pad, and an eye covering (scarf or bandana or eye pillow) as you wish for comfort. You may choose to be seated or lay down during the journeywork. You will also want to bring a journal or notebook to record your experiences. Bring water and any snacks you may want to have on hand.

The class is facilitated by Jen Knight. We will meet at beautiful healing space on the second floor of The Earth Magic Shoppe at 39 School Street in Hillsborough, New Hampshire.

This herbal workshop series takes you step by step through learning about medicinal herbs, how to grow them and how to make your own herbal remedies. We will start this journey at the beginning, choosing herbal allies that grow well in our bioregion to work with and planting them from seed.

In this first class of the series in 2026, you will learn about the traditional uses of some of the medicinal herbs that grow well in New Hampshire. We will discuss how to grow them, how to identify microclimates within your yard to help them thrive once they are planted, and other tips for successful gardening. We will plant seeds from some of these herbs to take home and nurture and eventually plant out in our respective gardens in the spring.

As we move through the growing season, each class in this series will take you through a different aspect of herbalism. Throughout the series, you will learn how to safely identify medicinal plants growing in our area, the ethics and practice of wild harvesting, basic Plant Spirit Communication, when to harvest what parts of the plant, how to make a variety of herbal remedies and learn how to use them, and much more. The Seed To Salve herbal class series is taught by local Herbalist, Jen Knight, who brings over 28 years of experience to these in-depth classes. If you have wanted to learn more about safely working with and growing herbs and making your own herbal remedies, then this class series is for you!

Tickets for this class on 2/7/2026 are $48 and cover class materials. Pre-registration is required to ensure there are enough materials for all who attend.

"When everything is just right, everything will be alright."

When the morning meets the light,
And the heavy heart feels light,
When the pieces find their place,
With a steady, quiet grace—
The world begins to realign,
In a rhythm, soft and fine.
When the breath is deep and slow,
And you let the "maybe" go,
When the path is clear to see,
Exactly as it’s meant to be—
The shadows fade out of your sight,
And everything is just right.
No more worry, no more fear,
The melody is loud and clear.
With the stillness comes the might,
To know that all will be alright.

There are a lot of questions this time of year about ticks, how to avoid getting them on you, how to safely remove them, what to do with them once they have been removed, and how to test the tick and yourself to determine if you may have contracted one of the many horrible infections they can carry.

Just this week alone I have pulled 3 ticks off of myself and sent them off for testing. It was a good reminder to use my essential oil blends regularly to repel them and to let you know that I have had a Lyme Resources page on my website since 2016, when I contracted Lyme and 3 coinfections myself.

On this page you can find answers to all of the questions above and many more. If you have been bit and contracted an infection, Lyme or otherwise, and would like more information on what you can do to support your body and your health in addition to antibiotic treatment, you can book a consultation with me to go over your unique case and create an herbal regimen specific for you and the infections you are presenting with.

Stay safe out there, but don't let ticks ruin your enjoyment of nature, just up your prevention methods ;) 🌄

Brightest Blessings, Jen ☀️ 🌸🌿
