MAGICAL OILS AND COLORS
Monday Personal Power Boosting Colors: White, Cream, Lavender
A roaring Full Moon is building this week. Peak is Friday, the day we also celebrate Love. And not just the romantic kind, with our spouses, partners or lovers, but love of all kinds, with all of those we hold dearest to our hearts and souls.
It is an intense and tricky week, with misunderstandings, communication issues, computer and technology mishaps and accidents of all types popping up everywhere. Triple check the intersections, be careful with sharp objects and dangerous machines, take care climbing ladders and stairs…Triple check all information. UNDER NO circumstance should we ASSUME anything or make any judgments without deep research. We will be missing important information which can change our entire thoughts and perceptions. Taking time to wait for all the facts to be known will save us from feeling foolish or having to apologize later. We will be dealing with this wave of “nonsense” for another three weeks, so be sure to keep your guard up.

When Mercury goes retrograde, all kinds of mishaps can occur in communication, computer and technology, and misunderstandings. If you are starting something new during the mercury retrograde, use the following recipe to ensure success:
Mercury Oil I
Blend together with 1/4 ounce of Carrier Oil:
3 drops Cinnamon Essential Oil
4 drops Rose Essential Oil
7 drops Sandalwood
Swirl gently until oils are thoroughly mixed.
Use this blend to anoint green candles, or wear as a body perfume. Mercury Oil can also be used in an Aroma Lamp, Diffuser, or Oil Burner (3 to 5 drops added to water).
Mercury Oil II
Blend together with 1/4 ounce of Carrier Oil:
6 drops Eucalyptus Essential Oil
6 drops Lavender Essential Oil
3 drops Peppermint Essential Oil
Swirl gently until oils are thoroughly mixed.
This blend is best worn as a body perfume to draw communication and intelligence to yourself during mercury retrograde.
Other planetary correspondences for Mercury can be used, (Essential Oils, Fragrance Oils, Herbs, Nuts, and Plants ), during Mercury Retrograde:
Almond, Aspen, Beans, Bergamot Orange, Bittersweet, Bracken Fern, Brazil Nuts, Caraway, Celery, Clover, Dill, Elecampane, Fennel, Ferns, Fenugreek, Filberts, Flax, Goats Rue, Horehound, Lavender, Lemongrass, Lemon Verbena, Lily of the Valley, Mace, Male Fern, Mandrake, Marjoram, May Apple, Mint, Mulberry, Papyrus, Parsley, Pecans, Peppermint, Pimpernel, Pistachio, Pomegranate, Summer Savory, Sienna, Southernwood
Create your own oil blend or a herb blend for potpourri to be used during the Mercury Retrograde. Make food or tea from some of the above, or purchase a plant to display in your home.

MAGICAL OILS AND COLORS
Tuesday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Silver, White, Black, Red
Tuesday, DO NOT fight authority or rage against the machine. This day, the person(s) we answer to or are obligated to will win the contest. Boss, Mom, Dad, Husband, Wife, police, government, if it holds a place of authority in anyway, the best thing you can do is comply. Anything else is only going to lead to us getting in trouble plus having to do what we are told/asked anyway.
Our intuition is on high and synchronicity will abound. We will find ourselves doing things before being asked or getting answers before we can ask the question. We will know things that are going to happen and our hunches are going to be spot on. Pay good attention to dreams and vision, write them down to use later for guidance and inspiration.
Magical and Spiritual blends can assist you in acquiring the everlasting wisdom of our Guides and Ascended Masters for helping you make your life Abundant, Fulfilling, and Prosperous. Visualization is the art of creating mental images. Form a mental image in your mind of what you desire; what is necessary for the needed change. Hold that image until you live that image through your five senses. This makes the image real. Record any messages or visions you receive, through dreams, in a journal, so you do not forget them.
The following recipes are for dream work, meditation, or vision quests.
Dream Oil
Use only Essential Oils for this Blend.
Add to 1 ounce carrier oil:
11 drops of Chamomile Essential Oil
11 drops of Marjoram Essential Oil
11 drops of Sandalwood Essential Oil
12 drops of Mugwort Essential Oil
Add a Sodalite Stone to the bottle and swirl gently until all oils are thoroughly mixed.
Use this blend for instructional or prophetic dreams.
Place 2 to 3 drops to your pillow or 8 to 10 drops (depending on the size of the sachet) in a sachet to be placed under your pillow case.
Meditation Oil
Add to one ounce Carrier Oil:
11 drops of Cedarwood Essential Oil
11 drops of Chamomile Essential Oil
12 drops of Frankincense Essential Oil
11 drops of Tangerine Essential Oil
Swirl gently until all oils are thoroughly mixed.
Use this blend in a protected environment.
Place 3 to 5 drops of blend into water in an Aroma Lamp, Diffuser, or Oil Burner. This blend facilitates meditative work. It tends to attract spirits that will guide you on a vision quest. This blend can also be used in the bath, 8 to 10 drops or worn as a body perfume.
Visionary Dreams Oil
Add to one ounce Carrier Oil:
15 drops of Lavender Essential Oil
15 drops of Patchouli Essential Oil
15 drops of Ylang Ylang Essential Oil
Swirl gently until oils are thoroughly mixed.
Place 2 to 3 drops to your pillow or 8 to 10 drops (depending on the size of the sachet) in a sachet to be placed under your pillow case. This blend can also be used in the bath, 8 to 10 drops or worn as a body perfume.
This blend will increase the depth and perception of your dreams.

Wednesday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Brown, Gold, Yellow, Green, Orange
A shift on Wednesday will have us revisiting people, ideas, conversations and relationships that we had contact with in January, or even before. Expect people from the past to pop in, call, e-mail or show up out of the blue. The other thing this will lead to is misunderstandings and even hurtful comments. If you get in a conversation that feels like you are saying one thing and the other person is hearing something completely different, just stop. Save it for March. Serious conversations, important topics, and clarity are off limits for the rest of the month of February, so redirect to something less heavy. DO NOT be subversive in punishing someone else for whatever you might feel they have done “wrong”. It is not fair and will only make the situation worse and more difficult to sort out later. Remind yourself that you love this person, they are important to you, and you want to keep them in your life happily. Walking away and taking time to THINK (long and hard) before speaking will help a bunch this week.
(Unless you do not really want or need to keep them. If they need to go, you will be feeling this now as well. If that is the case, now is time for putting a plan together to move on separately. A plan that will be implemented in March, after the crazy energy smooth’s out.)

Thursday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Crimson, Turquoise, Burgundy, Purple
Full Moon plus Valentine’s Day! Sounds like some LOVE work to me.

Aphrodite is the Greek Goddess of Beauty and Love.
There are many different ways to bring romance into your life using Aromatherapy. Place 3 to 5 drops of a blend into water in an Aroma Lamp, Diffuser, or Oil Burner to scent the room. Use your blend for a massage oil and treat your lover with a massage. Add 8 to 10 drops of your blend into the bath, and use it as a body perfume.
Bless your candles (Pink for Love, Red for Passion) using the following technique: Place the oil on your fingertips, and rub the oil from the top of the candle down to the middle, then from the bottom up to the middle. In this way you draw energy into your life.
Aphrodite’s Love-Drawing Oil
11 drops Carnation Fragrance Oil
11 drops Lilac Fragrance Oil
11 drops Lily of the Valley Fragrance Oil
11 drops Musk Fragrance Oil
1 drops Cinnamon
Swirl gently until all the oils are mixed before each use. Use as above, except for the bath and massage. I do not recommend bathing in Fragrance Oils or using them for massage.
This Fragrance Oil Blend will invoke the Goddess in all her forms and encourage love to be drawn to you.
Aphrodisiac Oil
Mix together 1 ounce Carrier Oil (Jojoba) with:
15 drops Patchouli Essential Oil
15 drops Sandalwood Essential Oil
15 drops Ylang-Ylang Essential Oil
Swirl gently until all the oils are thoroughly mixed, before each use.
This blend is sexy, sexy, sexy! Use this oil sparingly and only when the person near you is someone you wish to arouse. Feel free to use it in the bath and as a massage with your lover or in any of the above mentioned ways.
Happy Valentine’s Day to All!

Friday Personal Power Boosting Colors: White, Orange, Pink, Purple, Red
Friday is the highlight of the week, with the Full Moon making us fiery and hot. It is a passionate day, with the balance of helping others, being group/community minded, and making sure we tend to the things we need to tend to in order to be our individual selves. Our individual selves is spotlighted on this day. Our mission will be to blend the things that make ME unique with the ways I can help others. Our hearts will be open and we will be in the mode to go extravagant. If you have the means, then splurge. Remember, extravagant and splurging DO NOT have to mean lots of cash. It can mean a special dish, prepared at home, with a room full of candles and cut out paper hearts. maybe making heart shaped toast, pancakes or waffles for the family for breakfast. Homemade cookies, a hand-made card, or dressing up for no reason are all great ways to show extra thoughtfulness without expense. Also, this day is for all LOVE, so if you do not have a “romantic” partner, go out with friends, visit Mom and/or Dad, have lunch with a sibling or best friend, take the kids out, have coffee with a relative or neighbor who is also solo or in need of company.
Bottom line, prepare for mistakes, expect conflicts, try to keep your head and the peace, be kind and wait to have serious talks. Most of all, have fun, include others and look for ways to lend your unique talents to help a worthy cause.

Saturday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Silver, Black, Blue, Brown
Monday, February 17, 2014
Monday Personal Power Boosting Colors: White, Lavender, Cream, Silver
Monday starts us out slow, with hazy heads and not much direction. A good morning for sleeping or working on our typical daily tasks. If you have to set appointments/dates, wait until after 1:30 p.m. EST. If you need to make a call or do something without much interference, this would be a good morning to do it.
***There is NO starting anything new now. Not for the next three to four weeks. We are in the re-do, re-work, re-visit, review mode. Going back over things we have been working on or started in December or January, and even months or years before this. People from our past will be contacting us and we them. Anything that is “new” (something that we have not explored in anyway before) needs to be noted and looked at in mid-March, if we want them to have a chance of growing and becoming something. We may find by that time, the idea was not as great as it seemed, or that it fits in perfectly with what we have been working on already. Reconnecting with people and ideas that might have been put on the back burner or have fallen by the wayside is important also.
We continue to be accident prone and mistake laden. Technology, communication, travel, purchasing are all difficult at best. Allow time and patience and be sure to check, check, check for best results. Know now we will find mistakes and we will have to correct them.
The major vibrations of the week will have us looking deep within ourselves at the places we need to make a big change. Much of that has to do with our health and finances. The change we need to make is most likely apparent and something we have been mulling over for quite some time now. This week is the time to commit to the action that will allow us to LET GO OF IT and become comfortable being that different person, that person who can do without whatever behavior is holding us back from becoming our best. This thing may very well be what we “resolved” to do at the New Year. And we have likely seen ourselves let off of the head strong way we felt when we started this year. Now is a perfect time to RE-focus our efforts to achieve this goal. When we manage it, we will bust through the barrier that is keeping us in our current life-loop and allow us to enter the next Best time of our life.
Our intuition and feelings will become extra sensitive as the week goes on and will continue to be on high for the next month. This includes our emotions, so be careful as we could get our feelings hurt more easily and can hurt others without realizing it as well. The most wonderful part of this wave is that we will be given visions, dreams and empathy in giant helpings. We will be absorbing the thoughts and feelings of others easily. This is great for helping us to be sympathetic and to pick up on ways to be supportive. It will also cause us to be sad and even feel hopeless at times, because we will pick up on ALL feelings, not only the happy ones.
It is important for you to decompress, so creative things are a good way to do that. Also, candle light baths, meditation, massages, long walks, good books, movies that carry us away, drawing, writing and even cooking are all great ways to release the build up of emotions we will have this month.
Following is a list of Essential Oils that are great choices to add to your bath for decompressing and relaxing:
Benzoin, Cedarwood, Chamomile, Clary Sage, Geranium, Frankincense, Jasmine, Lavender, Mandarin, Marjoram, Melissa, Neroli, Nutmeg, Rose, Rosewood, Sandalwood, Ylang-Ylang
Add 1 to 3 Essential Oils in 1/4 ounce of Carrier Oil in your Bath (8 to 10 drops). Play around with your blends until you find one that works for you.
You can also play around with adding 1 to 3 Essential Oils to 1 ounce of Carrier Oil for a massage, such as:
15 drops Chamomile Essential Oil
15 drops Mandarin Essential Oil
15 drops Rosewood Essential Oil
to 1 ounce Carrier Oil (Jojoba)
Swirl gently until all oils are thoroughly mixed, before each use.
Pour some of the blend into your palm and rub the palms together to warm the oil before massaging. Continue until oil blend is gone or when you feel you have massaged enough.
These oils can also be used in an Aroma Lamp, Diffuser, or Oil Burner (3 to 5 drops added to water).

Tuesday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Silver, Black, White, Red
Tuesday and Thursday are social, romantic, judgmental and indecisive. Try to hold off on pressing for a definite yes or no on anything you cannot get a solid read on until Thursday and Friday. It will be a light couple of days, but we are going to need to wait for our hearts to settle before committing.

Wednesday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Yellow, Brown, Gold, Orange, Green
This is a great week, with lots of dreams, visions, synchronicity and psychic things happening for everyone, even the least aware of us.
Enjoy, and be careful. Watch ahead so you can avoid accidents and mistakes. Take some breaths to stay patient. And allow others their space to deal in this wonderful growing, visionary energy.

Thursday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Burgundy, Turquoise, Green, Purple, White
Thursday and Friday are deep, all-or-nothing days when we can decide on those things we were unsure of earlier. This also carries an air of suspicion and mystery. WE are going to be in a mood to explore our deepest feelings and to make known that this is the way we want and need to be. This is a good couple of days to set the course of action to make that big change and stick to it, for good.

Friday Personal Power Boosting Colors: Purple, Pink, Orange, White, Red
Friday night into Saturday morning we will be in flux mode again. Then Saturday ushers in fun loving, upbeat, cheerful, and truthful energy, to celebrate the weekend. A great time for gatherings and parties. We will all want to be allowed to feel the way we feel without restrictions, and this weekend the energy will support being tolerant of this for everyone we know. Our empathy is on high and our ability to “fake it” will be on low. This weekend will be perfect for building a close family feeling with those we hold most dear. We will be amazed at how the Universe has brought us all together because we have the energies and vibrations that we need to grow into our Best selves.
Love’s Messenger Oil
Blend together with 1 ounce Carrier Oil:
9 drops Cinnamon Essential Oil
9 drops Jasmine Essential Oil
9 drops Rose Essential Oil
9 drops Sandalwood Essential Oil
9 drops Vanilla Essential Oil
Swirl gently to ensure all oils are well blended before each use.
Use this blend in an Aroma Lamp, Diffusers, or Oil Burners throughout the home to send a message of love to all of your family and friends. 3 to 5 drops added to water.
