New Template and Healing Magick!

Yes! I finally changed that old template. I know most of you liked the old owl one, and I would have been fine with it too if I could have changed the coloring. I settled on a slightly generic one that I could customize more. I having really been feeling the color blue lately, so here it is!

My children and I have had this week off for February vacation. It does seem to go by quite quickly! It snowed yesterday, thank goodness. My 2 year old daughter has been begging to go out and play in the snow, since her Grammy got her new snow pants. There hasn't been much snow this winter, so she doesn't get to go out and play as often as she would like. She had a lot of fun playing out in the snow today though, let me tell you!

One of the women from my coven copied the meditation CDs from Penczak's Inner Temple of Witchcraft series. My husband relented to do one of the guided meditations with me last night. I never realized how much I have improved, until I saw my husband fumbling to sit comfortably. Poor guy, I think we will be better prepared to try it next time. I think he liked it, especially since he is health conscientious and knows this to be a very helpful thing for one's health. We spoke about the difficulty of visualization and about how nice it is to just sit and relax for a half hour. I am so glad that he decided to do that with me, I finally get to share some of this good stuff with him!

Over the weekend we went to my in-law's house for a birthday. While there we ate rich foods that our stomachs have not had the privilege of eating in a very long time. On Sunday morning my husband awoke early and spent the entire morning groaning on my in-law's couch. I came down to see why he hadn't made it back to bed (as morning cuddle sessions are the highlights of my mornings), only to find him in agony. His stomach was hurting fiercely. He had eaten too much milk the day before (from the "shrimp stew" which is basically shrimp, butter and heavy cream) and it was making him sick. We were supposed to leave that afternoon for home (4 hour ride), but not if he was sick! Later on, during my MIL birthday dinner (lasagna), I started to feel queasy too. We both laid down on his grandmother's bed together to try to recuperate before the ride home (in an hour). At this point I was only slightly queasy. My husband was still really sick. So I took it upon myself, unexperienced witch that I am, to heal him. I put my receiving hand on his chest and focused on sucking out all of the nausea and sickness. I did this for about a minute, really feeling the energy traveling through my arm. When I was done I put my power sending hand over his head and focused sleeping energy on him.

Now, even though I felt the power myself, I didn't expect him to feel anything or be affected. I was wrong. As I cuddled down to him I was already getting much queasier. I asked him something but he was already fast asleep! When he woke up he asked what I had done to him. He told me that as soon as I had my hand over him, he felt his nausea lifting. By the time I had finished he has felt 80% better! I told him what I had meant to do and he was impressed and I think a little proud. Unfortunately I did end up taking the sickness into myself instead of sending it away or turning it into something else. I was very sick for the whole car ride and the whole next day. He was fine for the car ride.

I did magick!!!

If you have any healing stories or tips, I would be very thankful to hear about it!
