Botanical Oracle: Hawthorn, Crataegus monogyna

The Hawthorne plant is bright flowing plant, whose berries are mainly used in jams, jellies, and syrups, but the berries, leaves, and flowers can be also used in herbal products.

I find that when you go out on a limb and communicate, this is a way both you and your partner can get closer to each other.

#2 Recipe and Ramblings: Think P.I.G. Diffuser Blend

The Think P.I.G. blend is one of my all-time favorite blends. Each oil used in this blend are considered woodsy oils. They are grounded in the Earth for much longer than I’ve been on this planet, and they have a type of strength that us as humans will never have. The fact they can give these beautiful scents off is just simply incredible.
