A Book of Shadows

Updated: Dec 30, 2025

I thought that with the New Year we all could use some energy around LETTING GO. Because when we can surrender and let go of what no longer serves us, we create space for new opportunities. And Green Calciite is one of my favorite crystals to work with for releasing. It creates a unique feeling of trust- trust in loosening our grip on the old~ perfect vibe for 2026!


This crystal can also help show you how to fully accept yourself and your imperfections. It all makes up your unique self and this can be a strength instead of a hindrance. 

It brings in a new sense of purpose while awakening your enthusiasm and feelings of inspiration. This stone brings balance of mind, body, heart, and spirit. It helps to assist in letting go of the past and old patterns that are no longer serving you. 


Green Calcite radiates a soothing energy that can help to remove stagnant energy in your surroundings. It gets rid of negative vibes and replaces them with positivity. 

This crystals healing energy fills you with excitement and motivation for new endeavors and acts like a breath of fresh air. Because of its ability to dispel negativity, it can help to get rid of any blocks that could be standing in your way to good fortune. It attracts abundance and overall prosperity.  

It assists in the easing of emotional grief and any type of sadness. It is a powerful heart chakra stone that helps to soothe the pain and bring back your strength to handle life’s obstacles. 

By renewing your sense of hope, green calcite aids in releasing challenges so that you can focus on future goals and plans. This crystal also assists with manifesting those goals. 

It is a stone of forgiveness. Whether it’s ourselves or others, green calcite helps you to let go of hurt, forgive, and move on to brighter things. 

Let’s start this New Year off with forgiving, hope, and letting go of the past! Blessings and happy 2026 all🤩💎💚

 

Every month the moon cycles through multiple phases. Just as we change day to day and week to week, so does the moon. And with each phase we feel differently. Have you ever thought to track this?


Try keeping a Moon Journal. Do this a few times a week. Write down at least a few phrases or paragraphs describing how you’re feeling in general and especially inwardly and towards yourself. And include what phase the moon is in so that you can begin to understand and note how the moon affects you.


You may notice after doing this a while, that you feel much better during the waxing phase. Or maybe you feel most confident when the moon is dark. No matter what the pattern for you winds up being, you will then have the awareness of knowing what times of the month are best for you and when you’re more challenged.


With this kind of insight you can make plans for certain things at times that are more optimal for you. And during the tricky periods, you can be aware that you may want to use those times to work on soothing and bringing more love and compassion to yourself.


And because Mondays are ruled by the Moon, try burning a white or silver candle every Monday as a thank you offering for these insights. You can also mix together: frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, willow, and mugwort and burn it as both a personal empowerment and an additional offering to the Moon 🌖

 

The final harvest is in front of us and we are making our way into the darkest time of the year (here in the northern hemisphere) it is the time of rest, good food, reflection, and appreciation.


Gratitude is something that all of us can focus on more. There is literally no downside to it! It only makes us feel better and brings about a flow of positive energy and joy.


So why not do more with it? Laziness, or maybe wondering “why bother”. The answer is simple- WHY NOT?!


It cost nothing and gives all.


Try this. It’s something I have been doing consistently in recent months and it’s become a regular practice that feels really good inside. And that is worth it.


Every night as you rest in bed and wait for sleep to come…say in your mind or out loud: “ I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL THE BLESSINGS IN MY LIFE, BOTH THE BIG AND THE SMALL”.


Then spend a few minutes thinking of things that you are appreciative of. Could be anything. Even the smallest things matter. Ponder them. Picture them. FEEL THEM.


When we fall asleep with this kind of focus and vibration, it makes magic happen😍


If you like burning herbs~ grind some up in your mortar and pestle and then burn this blend whenever you want to send out an offering of gratitude 💜
