Grey Mornings


I know what is meant by grey mornings now...I thought about this as I heated up some water in my tea kettle to make coffee this morning...the sky is cloudy grey and the light fills my kitchen...it isn't depressing or sad but calming and quiet...I have decided that the time right after I drop the boys off at school and get home is my favorite time of day...it is the time I use for writing, reading, getting in touch with myself spiritually, setting out the day by meditationa and prayer- although it is usually very short because Sean wants attention...I know that children and pets are drawn to spiritual energy...it has always been the case with my children!...I have felt a pull in the direction of learning more about Elemental Magick...with my beading I have started to work with gemstones and learn about healing/magick properties...it is fascinating because I have always known a little about the more "popular" stones like amethyst or Hematite, but now I am learning more about others, like Sodalite, etc...I have always been drawn to stones...particularly agates- spending hours looking for them in the yard or along rocky roads....I still do that and have imparted that to my children who collect all sorts of rocks and brig them home to me...I may eventually put up a page on this blog to discuss gems and their properties, more for my own learning and a quick reference...I will also put some pictures up showing some of the bracelets I have made...or talismans...not sure yet...but, I am now off to change a stinky diaper and then clean my farm house kitchen as I feel Magick Woods is our farm home in the city...todays grey morning will lead to a grey day, these are the types of cold grey days I light all sorts of candles in my home and find a good book to read and cuddle with my son..i have to add homework since school starts tonight
