Lunar Crystals
The moon represents emotion and powerful instincts, patterns, ancestral and karmic inheritances. For all moon signs it is recommended to meditate with a bloodstone at the full moon to uncover hidden unfulfilled desires that are controlling your life.
It is possible to reprogram patterns of behavior and facilitate healthy sources of nurturing.

Herbalism
"These are the things I know: You always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder, plant rosemary at your gate, keep lavender for luck and fall in love whenever possible." ~Alice Hoffman, Practical Magic
Clove (Syzygium aromaticum)
Essential oil is used as an anodyne (painkiller) for dental emergencies, Caution: Do not use long term as it can cause gum damage. Carminative. Clove oil is used for acne, pimples, severe burns, skin irritations and to reduce the sensitiveness of skin. Used internally as a tea and topically as an oil for hypotonic muscles, including for multiple sclerosis.
Yoga
The two forces of mind and prana maintain the rhythm of life and consciousness. Everything in the universe is evolving. Matter in its ultimate form is energy. The goal of yoga is to turn the body into solid energy. – Hatha Yoga Pradipika
Namaste means "the divinity within me salutes the divinity within you."
Padangusthasana (Big Toe Pose)
- Calms the brain and helps relieve stress, anxiety and mild
- Stimulates the liver and kidneys
- Stretches the hamstrings and calves
- Strengthens the thighs
- Improves digestion
- Helps relieve the symptoms of menopause
- Helps relieve headache and insomnia
Caution: Avoid this pose with lower back or neck injuries
- Stand upright with your inner feet parallel and about six inches apart. Contract your front thigh muscles to lift your kneecaps. Keeping your legs completely straight, exhale and bend forward from your hip joints, moving your torso and head as one unit.
- Slide the index and middle fingers of each hand between the big toes and the second toes. Then curl those fingers under and grip the big toes firmly, wrapping the thumbs around the other two fingers to secure the wrap. Press your toes down against your fingers. (If you can't reach your toes without overly rounding your back, pass a strap under the ball of each foot and hold the straps.)
- With an inhalation, lift your torso as if you were going to stand up again, straightening your elbows. Lengthen your front torso, and on the next exhale, lift your sitting bones. Depending on your flexibility, your lower back will hollow to a greater or lesser degree. As you do this, release your hamstrings and hollow your lower belly (below your navel) as well, lightly lifting it toward the back of your pelvis.
- Lift the top of your sternum as high as you can, but take care not to lift your head so far that you compress the back of your neck. Keep your forehead relaxed.
- For the next few inhalations, lift your torso strongly as you continue to actively contract your front thighs; on each successive exhalation, strongly lift your sitting bones as you consciously relax your hamstrings. As you do this, deepen the hollow in your lower back.
- Finally exhale, bend your elbows out to the sides, pull up on your toes, lengthen the front and sides of your torso, and gently lower into the forward bend.
- If you have very long hamstrings, you can draw your forehead toward your shins. But if your hamstrings are short, it's better to focus on keeping the front torso long. Hunching into a forward bend isn't safe for your lower back and does nothing to lengthen your hamstrings.
- Hold the final position for one minute. Then release your toes, bring your hands to your hips, and re-lengthen your front torso. With an inhale, swing your torso and head as a single unit back to upright.

Sonnet 43 from Sonnets from the Portuguese
Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1850)
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood’s faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints,—I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life!—and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

I'm so high. I can hear heaven.
I'm so high. I can hear heaven.
Oh but heaven, no heaven don’t hear me.
And they say that a hero could save us.
I’m not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
Someone told me that love would all save us.
But how can that be, look what love gave us.
A world full of killing, n' blood-spilling
that world never came.
And they say that a hero could save us.
I’m not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away. hi-igh-igh!
Now that the world isn't ending,
it's love that I’m sending to you.
It isn’t the love of a hero,
and that’s why I fear it won’t do.
And they say that a hero could save us.
I’m not gonna stand here and wait.
I'll hold to the wings of the eagles.
Watch as we all fly away.
And they're watching us
(Watching Us)
They're watching us
(Watching Us)
As we all fly away.
And they're watching us
(Watching us)
They're watching us
(Watching us)
As we all fly away,
(Yeah)
Yeah.
And they're watching us
(Watching us)
They're watching us
(Watching us)
As we all fly away
(Yeah, yeah. Whoa-oh.)
