Happy Happy to you all,

Whether or not you celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you all have an enjoyable holiday.  I certainly have an abundance of things to be thankful for including all of you.  Without you, EBN wouldn't continue to exist.  I am most grateful for you and look forward to continuing to be of service to you for many, many years to come.

I do have a special request of you all.  A member of "our community" is in need.  This person wishes to remain anonymous for personal reasons, however I can assure you that this is no scam nor something to be taken lightly.  Said person lost their job in the fall and as many of us do, lived paycheck to paycheck.  Because of this, eviction is pending in 10 days unless help arrives.  At the moment food is scarce and there is no electricity, all for the same reasons.  I know the person and child are taken care of for Thanksgiving and that a job has also been arranged.  The immediate need is for money to pay back rent so as to avoid eviction on November 30.  If you are able to make a donation, it has been requested to please include your name and an address as they would like to be able to acknowledge and possibly repay you somehow, if not in cash then in some other energetic way.  Of course you are free to donate anonymously if you choose.  We will be accepting the donations at the shop until November 30.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart and theirs.  Feel free to pass this request on if you feel moved to do so.

Great news!  The new Loreena McKennit, including demo CD, will be in early Tuesday afternoon.  I am really excited about this and just might play nothing but it all day long.

New Goodies! I left all of the invoices from this past week at the shop, so I'm going off memory as to what has come in.  I know I have forgotten stuff, so there will be surprises!

White Sage & other herbs - regular size and mini 3-packs white sage smudge sticks.  Cedar and 4 Directions smudge sticks. Incense resins in tins in such scents as Copal, Pinon, Dragons Blood, Frankincense & Myrrh and some name I can't pronounce or remember how to spell.

Altar tools - mortar & pestles in marble and soapstone, tingshas

Statuary - Kuan Yin in large and teeny sizes, feng shui frog and turtle family

I'm still waiting on those dang Witch Balls!  Of course I did place the order during Mercury Retrograde so they could be in Guam for all I know!

This week's events:

Thursday & Friday, November 23 & 24 – Closed for Thanksgiving holiday.

Saturday, November 25, 11:00am – 6:00pm - Tarot Readings with Maricarmen.  Maricarmen has been on the Enlightenment path for seven years, developing her intuition and learning ways to lift the spirit. She was introduced to Tarot as a child and has been reading for others for three years. Having experienced several unpleasant readings herself has encouraged her to combine her counselor training with her psychic gift. Using the Robin Wood or the Morgan Greer Tarot decks she will assist you in changing negative and uncertain situations into happy, positive experiences. Also a Reiki Master energy worker, she can link both her reading and healing talents; her goal is to bring you clarity, comfort, peace and understanding, based on the information you receive through her readings, to help you be prepared to handle a situation. Reiki is a natural and safe method of spiritual healing. Please inform Maricarmen if you would like to link both practices. Readings are $15 for 15 minutes. Longer sessions are available upon request. Advance reservations are suggested.
 
Sunday, November 26, 1:00pm – 5:00pm – Tarot Readings by Penny. Penny has been reading tarot cards for over 10 years professionally.  She is a Licensed Massage Therapist, a Reiki Master and has a Master's degree in Creative Writing.  Before she read professionally, she once had a reader tell her she has a curse on her family.  After this reader scammed her out of a nice chunk of money, she found her own way as an ethical reader and no longer believes in curses.  Penny's reading style is positive, changeable and eclectic.  She uses either the Hanson Roberts or the Thoth deck and grounds the reading in the context of your spiritual path.  She is clairvoyant and clairaudient, and uses some basic astrology.   At times, past life information comes up in a reading-- especially if a past life issue is causing problems today.  At other times, a deceased friend or relative shows up to talk about something important to you.  Her cards help her to focus her gifts, in a direct manner, for the answers to your questions and the concerns bothering you the most.  People often feel clearer, more energized and connected to their purpose after a reading with Penny. 15 minute readings are $15. Longer readings are available. Advance reservations are suggested.


Sunday, November 26, 2:00pm – 5:00pm - Candle Magick Workshop. You can make candle magick complicated, if you like- but why?  True, there are many factors that can play into the art of candle magick but spells don't have to be complex or difficult to be effective.  In fact, the simplest spells are usually the most effective. One of the simplest of magickal arts is candle magick.  It is simple because it employs little ritual and few ceremonial artifacts.  To begin with all you really need is a single candle, matches and your own personal power.  In this workshop we will go over a few basic things you'll need to know when using candle magick, as well as ways to enhance your candle magick in the future.  The first part of the class will be instructional and the second part will be actual spell casting with candles.  Materials will be provided by instructor (accept for writing material if you plan on taking notes).  The cost of this three hour workshop is $20.00.  Sign up in advance, as there will have to be at least four people attending in order for the workshop to take place.  Workshop will be lead by Lee Ann Donaldson.

We will have a 10-week tarot class starting in mid-December.  Please let us know if you are interested and the details will be passed along to you ahead of time.

I will be out of town from Wednesday through Saturday this week, so please don't email me for reservations or urgent questions.  Call the shop and leave a message or talk to Mel.  She'll take good care of you.

Safe and happy holiday wishes.
Blessings,

Tavane
