Full Moon Solstice
Herbal Remedies are in full swing!
- we've replenished our Yarrow, Calendula & Lavender and Pain Relief Tinctures
- started our Summer Stinging Nettle Tinctures & Infused Oils
- extended our Immunity Bath Salts--we'd utilized a large amount of medicines and they were seeping with oils! Added more Dead Sea Salts and Baking Soda and voila! 11 vs. 8.
- and even had time for our Plantain Infused Oils!
getting ready to create MountainsDreamz version of an Amish Drawing Salve just in time for all the yard work this Summer will bring.
And? For those of you with Ultra Sensitive Skin? An incredibly rich Coconut & Sunflower Oil and Shea Butter Unscented Soap! Rich, creamy, loads of lather and incredibly healing for all skin types. No scent, No color and All Natural!
Sitting for a moment during the late afternoon sunshine and breeze, enjoying our custom blend of incense and preparing for tonight's festivities. Faela hasn't been feeling well (which is why you didn't see us in Eagle River at the Farmer's Market today) so we're continuing our prayer of protection and blessed dreamtime for our Baby girl. Dog's have been fed--Sheamus is off to band camp for a week and it's just you and I and what seems like hundreds of Women preparing for tonight's Ceremonies. Sweat lodges are starting, Sundances are underway and those of us keeping the World in Balance are busy at work while the vast majority of you are doing normal things. Thanks be to training and guidance. The World is still revolving isn't it?
What are you doing this Summer Solstice? There's still time to get out there and enjoy the longest day of the year! What ever you are choosing to do--remember to give thanks for that heat. We learn more sometimes thru the heat, the harsh elements that wear us down to the very bone sometimes---than all the other elements combined. Pray for the fires raging in the Southwest---for the critters and the trees, the forests that are downed--and for our Firefighters!
