And without further ado, my post! Halloween is a big holiday for Pagans, Wiccans, Witchy and Magickal people, children, and for the Inner Child in all of us. Light some orange, yellow, white, and black candles, and join me in reading a short poem while honoring this day when the Veil is thin, and our Ancestors and Spirit Guides come through with messages louder and clearer than ever. The Winds of All Hallow’s Eve Shifting winds and cloudy fog A swift chill in the air. Magickal happenings are afoot, and rambling Spirits call. She wanders as if lost, Calling to a Love no longer there; The Lone Wolf howls against the darkening Moon, And whispers shuffle through the leaves. She is the Beauty and the Loss in us all, Her skirts rustle and her Ancestors call. There is a low hum and a deep drumbeat That few can hear; She has never lost the tune. Helping those who need it most, Answers she brings from Behind the Veil. When others ache for comfort, Hers is the answer they seek time and time again. So on this night of bittersweet chill, Do not fear for the Samhain Goddess. Hers is a Path that is often walked alone, Hers is the Path of the Maiden, the Mother, and the Crone. When you look for messages in the shifting tides, Her Spirit will blow feathers to you on the Wind. Honor her and offer her thanks, And remember her call when you long to dance.

Christie does not have a blog at this time, so I am hosting her post on my site. You can find her Facebook Page here. Please read on to see how you can keep your Energy fields, home, and workplace clear at this time when the Veil is very thin between Worlds, and all throughout the year.
Hello and Welcome to the 8 Days of Spooky Goodness Blog Hop!!! I would like to introduce myself... My name is Christie and I'd like to think I am a Jack of all Trades, Spiritually, so to speak. I am a Reiki Master, Energy Healer, Medical Intuitive, Spiritual Counselor, Medium, Ordained Minister, and a Teacher. With all that said, I am very sensitive to energies as many of us reading these blogs are. The purpose of this blog is that I would like to share a little about energy and the Paranormal with Halloween around the corner. Halloween has a certain vibe about it. I am sure that you all know what I am talking about. Halloween can be described as mystical, eerie, scary, fun, and even spooky. Due to this, things of the Paranormal come to mind. Superstitions, haunted houses, ghosts, goblins, skeletons, graveyards, and so forth. Halloween is also known as "All Hallows Eve", meaning the Day of the Dead. This is where we celebrate and dedicate a day to all of those who have passed on. For some, this adds to the hype of Halloween. These vibes that we correlate Halloween to are for many reasons. One of the reason is because of the actual energy in the air. Throughout school we learned that everything has energy in the world. This is the truth! Some things and people have higher and positive energy, while others have lower and negative energy. Some energies are more masculine and some are more feminine. Some even have both energies. We are all sensitive to this energy but some are more than others. Healers are more sensitive so it is easier for us to pick up on these types of energies. So we literally can pick up the energies of people, animals, places, items around us, etc. On Halloween, there are many more energies prevalent as we celebrate a day to all those who have died. As Sensitives, it is very important for us to cleanse ourselves, our homes, and our workplaces regularly. This is for many reasons. There can be residual energy left over from previous tenants, clients can leave their energy, and we may even have the energies of the deceased around us wreaking havoc. There are consequences of not cleansing of not cleansing ourselves. We can pick up others energies and take them as our own or we can attract energies and have these energies following us around. As I have mentioned, these energies can be lower and negative and can bring you down. Some can even make us very ill. Therefore, it is very important for us to cleanse ourselves of energies. There are many ways to cleanse ourselves, others, our homes, our workplaces. I teach all types of methods of cleansing so you can choose what is best for you and what works for you . I will name a handful for you. My personal favorite way of cleansing is by using sea salt. You can also use crystals, you can ask for help from Archangel Michael and Archangel Raphael, you can use sage, you can use Reiki, and you can even consult someone local to do these things for you if you are not comfortable. If you would like to learn more about energy or cleansing please feel free to reach out to me. If I am unable to help you, I am able to point you to someone who can. Happy Halloween!!!

She was bone tired, in fact. The Autumn days had become chilly and dreary, and she was lonely - lonely for human companionship. She had no shortage of chatter, for Danica had begun to see and hear things again. At least that’s what it seemed like; she didn’t know if she was crazy or not, and she had been so sure that she had received enough counseling and blocked the chatter out so that it would never return again. She longed for a friend, an advisor, anyone who would understand. She was afraid that was never to be. Danica came from a long line of Witches, Seers, Psychics. However, it was rough for her Mother and her. They were chased out of every small town they settled in, after the townspeople used them up for their insights, natural healing methods, and psychic visions. It always turned bad; inevitably someone would get a Reading, not liking what was said because they had no desire to use their own power to take control of the situation presented and thus take control of their life. They wanted the Witch to do it for them. And sadly, Danica’s Mother Jillyan had passed on without really teaching Danica how to protect herself from the dark energies, or to hone her gifts. Danica was living in a secluded spot in a town where the people who had known her Grandmother were long dead or moved elsewhere. The sprawling old mansion that her Grandmother had left to her was full of old energies, old magicks, herbs, mortars and pestles, talismans, candles galore, drafts, and lots of Spirits. The drafts seemed to have multiplied this October evening, and Danica stoked the fire and shivered a little in her long white nightgown. She climbed into the big four poster canopy bed and prayed that the chatter would be still tonight. Danica dozed off briefly, and suddenly shivered under the thick comforter. Then she felt a creeping warmth that started at her feet. There was a weight shift on the bed, as if someone had sat down on it. She jumped up. “Hello Love. I’ve been wondering how long it would take before you took notice of me.” Danica attempted to jump up, arms and legs flailing, but the large masculine figure held her down easily. “No need for all of that Dear. I am not here to harm you. You’ve been waiting for me all of your life.” She looked up tentatively, taking in a broad shouldered male with platinum blonde hair, a strong jaw, and a sure, confident expression. For some reason Danica felt a growing sense of calm, and she knew who he was. Somehow, she knew that she had been looking and waiting for him all of her life. She also knew that he was not human, was not of this world. What in the world was going on? This was something altogether new and different. Although her pulse was racing and she was almost afraid to look him in the eyes, Danica knew that her life had just changed forever. She felt that he - whoever he was - was in control, and that perhaps her life would now take a new direction and hold some meaning. For some reason, she was excited and could not wait to see what happened next……. Just a little Halloween teaser to get us started!
