I am a Libra. I revel in the beautiful and magickal season of autumn. It is a part of me year round-- my house is full of autumn bouquets, gorgeous gold and russet leaves, artwork, scenery.
I was accused once, by a very petty person, of "stealing" her idea for an autumn background-- because I had chosen autumn leaves. I let her rant and rave and carry on, because I knew, within my heart, that I had fallen in love with autumn and autumn foliage long before she had ever drawn her first breath. Neither her cruelty, nor her exaggerated sense of indignation could touch me.
The beautiful leaves are worth it all.
And so, for now, because this is how I feel and this is what I want-- it will be Autumn in this space. And this virtual autumn, to my delight, will last just as long as I wish-- unlike autumn of the real world, which never lasts long enough.
..
Sunflowers hold a special place for me-- not only for their connection with autumn-- but also for their magickal associations and a personal magickal connection that I share with them...Sunflowers have projective (male) energy encased in a beautiful golden face that reminds me of a man-- pretty around the edges and all rough and scratchy in the middle. Their planet is the Sun-- male energy again, pervasive and hot, overbearing and in your face...but in the fall of the year, the Sun is losing it's power, giving sway to the dark season. So perhaps it stores it's energy in the radiant golden yellow face of the Sunflower?
I remember laying on the ground as a child and looking up through the trees in my grandmother's yard. Dappled shadows would fall on my face and they would move as the breeze moved the limbs of the trees above. I'd quickly squint when the sunlight splashed unexpectedly in my eyes.
The top of me felt all warm with the breeze upon me, and the underside felt cool against the green grass and the earth.
I remember turning my head to the side and I suddenly noticed these little ants valiently trying to carry heavy loads of cargo back to their hill. What an avalanche of towering grasses they had to conquer.
To the ants, that grass was as magnificent and towering for them as the trees were to me. I guess everything is all about perspective, it depends on what level you're looking at things from.
I'll try, from now on, to conquer the small things near to me before I tackle those towering obstacles looming in the distance.
Welcome to the world of my addiction: Chocolate!
Spells & Potions, Charms & Such
The shop is open!
I took the plunge and expanded the line of wytchy wares offered at The Witch's Corner-- and this expansion will be an ongoing thing, so make sure to check in with us from time to time. There are many magickal items I still wish to add to the list; as well as new artwork, pottery, and jewelry by Isabella. I'll be updating the magickal shops as time allows.
Right now you'll find jewelry, ouija boards, spell candles and oils.

Tarot Readings
By now, anyone who knows me knows that I give tarot readings. I'm posted all over the internet-- on three myspace profiles, ning networks too numerous to name, and two of my own websites-- most notably, "The Witch's Corner". The other site is less known, being fairly new: ladyamythyst.bravehost.com. I would still recommend just going to my main website, 'cause you'll be directed there anyway to hit the paypal button.

My Interests

This profile is currently under reconstruction--

This profile, I have decided, is going to be my own space to play with.

My main profile showcases my family, my husband and my children, our life...it is a family album and contains the essence and energy of all those close to me.

myspace.com/amythystraine

My second profile is dedicated to the Goddess and is a haven for women. It is Her energy that dominates that space. It is the unseen, but very powerful energy felt, of all those women who come to The Grove...a universal feminine consciousness!

myspace.com/the_goddess_grove

But this space...

I will dawdle here. I will paste images that snatch my imagination. I will let my hair down and be petty when I feel like it. I will be gleeful when the urge hits. I will spin and tumble and roll in the grass and do all those things that we don't do when we know we are being watched...unlike innocent children who play, unaware of eyes upon them...that is who I want to be again.

I want to reclaim that total and unabashed unself-consciousness...I simply want to be me.

Blessings to all those who enter here...
