Rose oil for Divine protection


Dear Gypsies! One of the most important oils you must have in your home is rose oil. Yes, I know it can be pricey, so try to buy it in health stores where there is a large variety of essential oils and you may find a cheaper brand.
I use rose oil in my home every day. As soon as they step into my home, all my guests remark how good and calm they feel. Little they know that it is the rose oil that I burn what gives them a such a sense of peace; rose oil filters out darkness and evil and brings us close to the Divine.
Apart from its wonderful fresh scent, the benefits of rose oil in our life are tremendous. It emits feminine energies that stimulate love and peace. It energizes your special project, giving it the momentum it needs in order to manifest in the best form at the best time. It attracts passionate love and helps us reunite with ex-lovers with whom separation was a mistake. It is a high-resonance oil that keeps evil and dark energies and intentions away and help us stay in the presence of the Divine. It also helps us come to terms with our divine self, which is wonderful if you are into meditation, research and other self-balancing exercises. I have recommended rose oil to many of my clients who felt restless and far from manifesting what they desired. As rose is a strong and universal symbol of love, burning the oil has improved everyone's love life; ex lovers returned, new lovers appeared, and difficult lovers gained momentum. All that had divine approval received divine blessing and the strong divine energies of the oil brought everything into manifestation without struggle and difficulties.
Make sure you always have some rose oil at home. Use it daily and soon you will feel the flow of divine energies. You will only be sorry you did not try it earlier.

Seeing the green Light


Dear Gypsies! Welcome to the GYPSY CAFÉ on this cold morning! Lately, some of my friends asked me how to increase our intuitive connection to the cards. I have always been a big proponent of connecting to nature. In fact, the entire section of CRAFTY GYPSY is devoted to cultivating our connection to nature and treating nature as the fundamental backdrop to our daily life. Without a strong connection to nature, no form of magic, including card reading, really works. Divination was born in primordial tradition, where the role of the Magus was to harmonize and planetary and elemental influences (fire, earth, water, air) in our daily life and to draw our soul upward, closer and closer to heaven. In fact, magic is about creating harmony between ourselves and the influences of nature around us, and the cards are the symbolic manifestations of the human place within the cosmos; they show us where we stand amidst the various swirling influences of nature. Therefore, to become an intuitive card reader, connecting to nature in a deep and fundamental level is important. If we separate divination from the primordial culture in which it was born, our intuitive connection to higher powers will weaken if not be completely lost. Taken outside of the primordial tradition, magic will only reinforce the ego.
Knowing this, it does not surprise me to see that of the 36 concepts symbolized in the Gypsy deck, 12 use nature for their backdrop. The Officer, Thought, Sweetheart, Lover, Jealousy, Widow, Widower, Unexpected Joy, Merriment, Journey, House and Fidelity all take us outside, into forests, fields, parks, cemeteries, under trees and beside rivers. Apart from giving symbolic messages we can interpret to our clients, these cards also tell us card readers to be connected to nature and to use all that it offers to heal both our clients and ourselves.
Wood, stone, essential oils and fresh flowers all enhance our intuitive powers. On our walks through forests, we collect little bits and pieces to decorate our homes with and bring the power of nature into our home. Being cut off from the noise of the city lets us feel higher resonances, and the fresh energy that fills our body will refresh our intuition and imagination.
Only through this connection to our environment can we increase our intuitive powers. Without this, our readings will become ego-driven, and the goal of harmonizing the energies of our clients with the energies of nature will be lost.

In this cold Season


Dear Gypsies! Welcome to the GYPSY CAFÉ on this snowy morning. I am still quite sick; this cold is too attached to me; like a possessive guy, it does not let me out of its sight.
Apart from the old and boring over the counter and home remedies that we use to chase our cold away, let's not forget about lavender and peppermint essential oils. Burn them close to your bed (if you are lucky enough to stay in bed), and you will feel their wonderfully beneficial effects soon.
Peppermint opens up your nasal passages and leaves the air around you minty fresh. From a magical standpoint, it restores the energies after an argument, it stimulates your mind before meditation or research, and it helps to bring about positive life changes.
Lavender, as I keep on stressing on it, is a must have item in your house. It cleanses your environment of unwanted darker energies and negative influences. It builds a protective sphere around you where you can rest and heal in peace and comfort. When you are sick, it helps you rest by filtering out of your sphere all that worries you. It is a wonderful oil to burn when you want your body to relax and catch up on sleep.
Remember though; peppermint and lavender have the opposite effects: peppermint stimulates, while lavender relaxes. Make sure you know when to use each to achieve the state of mind you desire.
Let nature help you relax and heal!

Fragrant Bath Sachet for Protection

Dear Gypsies! In this little sachet we have all the energies we need after a tough day. Out of natural linen cut out a 3 inch by 3 inch rectangle. In the middle place 2 tablespoons of lavender, 2 tablespoons of mint and 1 tablespoon of marjoram; all dried or fresh. With a sting or ribbon pull the corners of the rectangle together, and make a small sachet.
Put the sachet into a cup of boiling water and boil it for about 15 minutes, under lid, so the water will not evaporate. When you finished, take the sachet out of the water and add the water in the pot to your bath.
You can use the sachet for two things: you can add it to your bathwater, and you can use it as an excellent facial exfoliator.
This small sachet offers exactly what we need:
Lavender helps our energetic cleansing and provides protection from negative energies.
Marjoram also cleanses us of negative energies and helps attract love and peace.
Mint is a healing herb that attracts peace, awareness and positive energies.
While lavender and marjoram are calming and warming herbs, mint is stimulating and refreshing.
Enjoy this bath, and believe me, after you have exfoliated, your skin will thank you!
Not recommended during pregnancy.

Teas for your Soul

Dear Gypsies! Although we are at the GYPSY CAFÉ where we enjoy our daily coffee, let's not forget about our wonderful teas.
Occasionally, dedicate a day for magic and the cleansing of the energies around you. Prepare for that day in advance; think about what you want to achieve, do some research; by all means, do not make this a spontaneous program. Get all that you need in advance; take an Epsom Salt and Lavender bath the night before. Mental preparation is also part of the ritual that will transform your desires into reality.
Start that day with a cup of angel tea that you have previously charged on your altar. Do not eat anything just yet, and feel the tea cleanse your energies. With clean energies you will be more receptive to the grounding effects of your ritual, and nothing negative will interfere with your process.
Do your ritual with patience and focus; concentrate on your words and yor candles. Let the smoke of your candles carry your desires into the divine spheres. After the ritual, let your candles burn as long as they take; they are your prayers for the hours to follow.
Relax and enjoy your breakfast....

The Angel teas:

Peppermint: Apart from it being a refreshing stimulat, it also increases healthy gastric secretions, relaxes the intestines and settles the stomach. It creates freshness and cleanliness.

Herbal Chai: with rooibos and natural spices. Rooibos stands for "red bush" in Afrikaans, and it is a plant that is grown in South Africa. It is very high in antioxidants.
