Hey eveyone, hope you are all having a great day. I am still really conjested but at least I can breathe & don’t have to lay in a hospital bed. Today I am going to talk about the power of Jade. Jade is actually my power stone, we all have one. It is a good idea to find out what yours is and be sure to constantly wear it. I have a jade ring that was my great aun’ts that I never take off. Even though your power stone works best for you all stones will work for everyone.
It is believed in Feng Shui that if you carry a piece of jade with you and touch it or rub it frequently, that it will then transmit to you it’s qualities of health and strength and, most importantly, longevity. In Eastern cultures, jade is considered more valuable than either diamonds or gold, specifically because it is believed to bestow a long and happy life. Gives new meaning to the words ‘precious gem.

Hello everyone, sorry for the lack of posts this month. I have been sick & have been in and out of the hospital. I think I have finally kicked this cold. So I will be back to posting everyday again. We have decide against getting a domain instead we are going to offer our services to you right here on our blog. Keep an eye out in the next few days for a new page offering Birth Charts, Numerology Charts, I-Ching Readings, Tarot Readings and much more.
As for today’s post, there are things that we all want, or wish that we could have, this exercise is great. It’s simple, fun & best of all it works!!! First you want to go to the store & buy a red pen…yes you really have to buy one. I have tried it both ways, with a red pen that I bought just for this exercise & with one that I had laying around the house & it worked with the pen that I bought, not the one I had laying around the house. Not sure why but I’m not one to question fate.
OK, so with a new red pen bought especially for this exercise, take any piece of paper and write down nine things that you are hoping will happen in your life in the next nine weeks.
Next, off it right next to your list, draw a heart with wings coming out the sides. Color this in with any colors that you like but be sure to spend some time contemplating this small symbol.
The flying heart is actually a universal symbol of hope, and will strike same into your subconscious. Every night for the next nine weeks, right before you slip off to slumber, read this list aloud.
Put it under your pillow and then wait for your dreams to come true. Rest assured, somewhere inside these next nine weeks, your own hopeful heart will take flight and soar!
Good Luck and as always if you have any questions feel free to email us at miraclesnmagic@comcast.net

Hello everyone hope you are all having a great day. Sorry I havn’t been around for a few days. I have been working on an old online business that I am starting up again. Today I am going to discuss the Head & Tail of Your Dragon.
There are two Lunar Nodes in your birth chart, the North Node & the South Node. The are not planets but a pair of points in your chart that speak of your positive qualities that you need to develop & the negative qualities you need to release. In classical astrology, the North Node is called the Dragon’s Head and the South Node is called the Dragon’s Tail, symbolizing a Celestial Dragon. It is believed that we enter the world “head first” carrying positive qualities to work with and trailing a “tail” of negative qualities to dispense with.
Each node is located in one of your houses, this will determine what your positive & negative qualities are. The North Node represents qualities to expand, gifts to use, your life purpose, and tasks to be mastered. The South Node represents negative behavior to release and destructive patterns that you need to let go of.
If you want to know where your nodes are located in your chart just email us with your Date of Birth (month, day & year) the Time and Place (city, state, country) you were born in at miraclesnmagic@comcast.net and we can tell you. We can also do your whole chart if you want just email us for payment info.

Hello everyone, hope you are all having a great day today, sorry today’s post is late. I was at the doctor’s office with my nephew all morning then had to do a few errands. Today I am going to explain the I-Ching, starting with the trigrams.
There are eight trigrams, they are the basis of the sixty-four hexagram. Each trigram is made up of three lines. The lines are either yin (broken) or yang (solid). The eight trigrams, numbered zero to seven, are formed from all the possible combinations of yin & yang. Each one represents one of the living forces of the universe. Fu Hsi saw these eight symbols as a way of entering into communion with the living powers of our world and of understanding the human condition. Each symbols represent the different qualities of the outer & inner worlds. He saw then what we are now rediscovering, that all that parts are necessary to the whole.
0 — The Earth, generous, supportive and forever giving
1 — The Thunder, wild, shocking and exciting
2 — The River, calm one moment, a torrent the next
3 — The Lake, fruitful, where animals drink and plants grow
4 — The Mountain, steady and grounded
5 — The Sun and Fire, brilliant, illuminating and burning
6 — The Trees and Wind, gentle, yet penetrating every nook and cranny
7 — The Sky, vast as the canopy of celestial power
Everything that we know is made up of these elements, including ourselves. Our bones are the mountains, our blood is the river. Our passions burn with the Sun, and our imagination flies on the breeze of the wind. They are the universal & spiritual qualities that unite the natural forces with the human worlds & the realms of the heart & mind as one.
Come back tomorrow for the qualities of each of the trigrams. If you have any questions feel free to email us at miraclesnmagic@comcast.net

Hello everyone, Hope you are all having a great day. Today we are going to discuss Ascendants, which are also known as Rising Signs. They play an important role in your horoscope. It reflects your outward, your most noticeable traits, and to a great extent determines how the outside world looks at you.
The word outer is often used to define your Rising sign because it’s the sign that represents your outer personality, again your most noticeable qualities. In other words, your “image”. Most often than not, it’s what the world first sees in you, that impression you make on other people; family, friends and yes of course, enemies. It is actually more revealing than your sun sign, can you believe it?!
It’s been compared to the door of a house, an entranceway that visitors first see; pass through in order to look at the house itself. There is a perfect blend at the Sun sign and Rising sign known as the Ascendants.
The Ascendants is known to be the sign that was rising at the time of birth, again the Rising sign. Here is each of the Rising Signs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.
Now your Ascendant is called the sign of your self; self-awareness, self-sufficiency, self-interest. Signifies goals, aims, objectives, indicates the main thrust of your creative powers. What exactly is an Ascendant? All it is astrological sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the time of your birth. It’s located in the first house in the chart, right on the horizon.

Hello everyone hope you are all having a great day. Today’s post is going to be another real life encounter. A friend of mine, who is a medium, stayed at the Lizzie Borden House in Fall River, Massachusetts a few months ago and I asked her to write about her experience. Here it is:
Hey girl, I would love to tell your readers about my stay at the Lizzie Borden House. My boyfriend and I went to visit some friends in Fall River and decided to spend the night. Our friends didn’t have room at there house and the mentioned there was a bed and breakfast down the street so off we went to find it. My boyfrined was a little nervous about staying there at first but we really had no other choice at this point, so in we went.
Just our luck the only room avaiable was the room of Abigail Bordern, Lizzie’s stepmother. My boyfriend was totally freaking out but again we didn’t have a choice. As we heading through the parlor to our room. We walked past the couch were Lizzie’s father was found dead and I felt a hand grab my shoulder. It was a gentle gesture as if to say hello and welcome to my home. I looked back and thought I saw the figure of a man. I tapped my boyfriend but when he looked the man was gone.
We headed up to our room and got ready for bed since it was pretty late. We never actually saw anything during the night but I felt that someone else was in the room with us, I couldn’t quite make out who it was but I didn’t feel threatened. My boyfriend on the other hand woke up on several occasions saying that he heard screaming.
The next morning while we were eating breakfast with some of the other guests we saw coffee pots moving by themselves as if someone was carrying them across the room. Cabinets doors would open & shut by themselves. One of the other guests told us that she saw two children apparitions running through the house the day before. Once I got home I looked that up & it is believed that tthe neighbors children James & Sally, who died in the Borden well have taken up residence in the Borden House as well.
This was an experience that I will never forget. As you know I love staying in haunted places. Take care hon, and you really do need to get your man to take you there.
Hope you all enjoyed today’s post. If you have any questions feel free to email us at miraclesnmagic@comcast.net

Hey everyone hope you all have a great day. I can already tell mine is going to be awful. My cell phone died last night & the slot to plug the charger in is broke. Now I have no phone & no way to get ahold of my boyfriend. I am losing my mind. Anyway, today’s post is going to be another one about sacred spaces… the bathroom.
Most of us use it to be secretive, vent, cry or whatever else because we consider it private and our sanctuary. And when we were ready, we come out. Not all of us have a sanctuary or place that we can call our own, so here is your chance to use this as your sacred space when you want or need it.
Before we get into making your bathroom, here a short discussion of “the power of water”, because we associate water with bathrooms. Our world and bodies are composed primarily of water. It is also associated with emotions and the deep mind.
Did you know the oldest bathroom was built 6,000 years ago in India? Yes, that’s true. Our ancestors appreciated the qualities of water by taking great deal of care of building facilities so we can bathe ourselves. Did you also know in some countries, 1,500 yr old toilets are still being used? Yes they are! You wouldn’t suppose plumbing in your home would last long.
And now how you can make your bathroom your sanctuary.
1. You’ll want a bathroom that engages all your senses.
2. For sight, decorate any way you want but try to make it pertaining to the sea.
3. Sound, play a nature tape or CD
4. For smell, use fragrance soaps, candles, salts, incense, if they don’t bother you
5. Now get comfortable with either towels or a bath pillow.
There, you’re all set to set up your own bathroom haven or sanctuary. You should and can use your own imagination but don’t overdo it, you’ll scatter your energies.

Hello everyone, hope you all had a great day. Sorry today’s post is late, I was running errands with my sister. Today we are going to talk about scared spaces, over time we will talk about different rooms, for today we will be talking about the bedroom.
For example; my bedroom is a place where I meditate, share my most inner-most secrets with my closest friends, relax, a place that is special to only me and/or my friends when I allow them to enter. Most often, of course you probably wouldn’t but it’s totally your choice.
It’s also a place where you work, play, create or whatever your heart desires. If you chjoose to allow others to enter this space be sure to bless it first, to protect your space from any negative energies you can do this with blessings or spells. Different people’s energies can be either good or bad, but as long you have a way to keep it protected they can’t really bring bad energies into your sacred space.
Next, it’s ok to dress any way you desire because who are you impressing? No one but yourself! So you can be as scrubby but clean, as you want to be. What I mean is, you still need a shower but can dress any way you want. Not only that, it’s your Sanctuary, right? Right.
Again, we talk about cleanliness because we can’t have clutter because it’ll scatter your energies. Take a look around your sacred place and see what it needs done. Does it need cleaning? Painting? New wallpaper? New decorations? Do what it takes to unclutter your space so you can keep your energies cleared. It is the first step to harmony!
Now, we can choose sound, texture & smell. What music relaxes you, or stimulates you? What textures do you like? Smooth, rough, rigged, fuzzy, etc. Also it’s great to have incense or candles that stimulate your senses but don’t let the little ones get a hold of them if you’re a mom! Of course we know they are dangerous.
Fill your sanctuary with objects that fit your personality but don’t overdo it! You’ll scatter your energies that way also.
Last, enjoy it to your fullest extent and make sure others know you are doing and firmly let them know to stay out unless they have your permission to enter thee’s secret world you’ve created!

Hello everyone, hope you all have a great day. We got more snow last night. I can’t wait til spring. I am starting to get sick of snow. Today’s post is going to be about a way that you can bring luck & good fortune into your life.
Place a small statue of a horse high up in any important room of your house or even on the front of your desk at work. The horse is one Chinese zodiac animal, and it is also considered one of the Seven Treasures of Buddhism.
The horse is associated with fame, luck, an exponential increase in popularity, recognition and reward for all your efforts. In fact, showcasing a horse that is walking or running actually represents a speedy ascent to personal power and success. So go find that horse statue & watch your luck change.
