It's been a pleasure putting together this weekly jam for you! I hope you're feelin resourced & held as we navigate the polls & stars during this global health pandemic.
Speaking of the stars, can't get enough astrological insight for October? Me neither! Check out my dear friend, community healer, & founder of The Honey Block, Branché Foston's, collab with astrologer Ellen Bowles here.
Also, it's RUL out here! Need a lil' extra protection to get you through this month? I got chu boo! Tip 1. SALT WATER.. bathe in it, dip in the ocean, spray your spiritual doors with it (learned this from my bomb acupuncturist, Andrea).. your doors include the front of your chest, back of your neck, & either side of your pelvic region! Tip 2. YARROW.. "the healer's healer," an herb of protecting your precious energy from energy vampires! It is spooky season after all. Try working with yarrow however you're called to.. draw a bath, flower essence, tincture, tea (bitter medicine watch out!), or my fave.. a body oil. I share more about yarrow in this video. Tip 3. THORN MEDICINE.. (carefully) carry the prickle of a rose with you, put it in your protection satchel or make an essence with it. Thorns in nature are amazing reminders of boundaries and what happens when we cross them! From blackberry bramble to the thorns of hawthorn, be the juicy berry you're born to be!
& cause you're a Jam Haw reader & total herb angel, here's a lil' gift for you to begin making some herbal magick.. password is hiddengem!
