For the Love of Mushrooms 🍄🍄🍄
Hi Reader!
Let's call today... Shelley's Mushroom Magic Madness Day! I admit it, I love to geek out about mushrooms. I have always been fascinated with mushrooms. I love studying the science behind mushrooms and how they connect through the mycelium network, and provide such a vital link in the never-ending cycle of life and death.
Plus the mythological and folklore of mushrooms throughout cultures and history. The power of fairy rings, cave drawings of mushroom men, the pop culture icon status of the Fly Agaric, and even the stories of the Viking Berserkers. It is completely fascinating to me!
Over time, I have been incorporating them more and more into my altars and I love nothing more than finding new mushrooms in the forest. Recently, I added some mushroom books to my magical library, plus this year the forests around me have been alive with a constantly changing treasure trove of different mushroom types. So I decided it was time to write up a piece on my magical buddies, the mushroom and share my geeky obsession!
Exploring the Magical and Mystical Mushroom
As a fun tidbit, all the photos in this article were taken by me during one of my forest bathing sessions. I didn't go looking for mushrooms, but that day they found me and brought me so much joy! I still smile every time I think of that day.
I hope you enjoy this piece and find some mushies on your next forest walk!
Blessings,
Shelley

Hi Reader, As blacksmiths who specialize in creating ritual tools we are often asked about the history of iron and magic, and how modern day practitioners can incorporate iron into their altars and spiritual practices. It is something I am very passionate about and I love spreading awareness around our beloved iron. Iron, Magic and Spirituality Blessings and wishing you a bountiful week! Shelley
Hi Reader, Tomorrow will be the Harvest Full Moon! Are you ready for it? Because this is some powerful energy and I don't know about you, but I am really feeling it! This will also be the last Supermoon of the year (love me a good Supermoon!), and it is the first full moon of Fall. So why are we all feeling so amped up right now? It is because this full moon is in Aries and with it's planetary ruler, Mars, it is bringing up all kinds of powerful, active energy! The Fall Equinox is a powerful...
