Merry meet everyone, Today's post is another great unboxing review from the amazing Witch's heart. This months box theme was Spirit work, which really got me happy inside. I thought it was a perfect theme for this month and I just love it. This months box was a little more expensive because of the products inside. This months box cost me £25. This for me didn't shock me because most subscription boxes are this price and I actually like how The Witch's Heart try to keep their cost down for their buyers. Anyway back to the amazing contents of this box. I was really looking forward to this box because again the theme is amazing and I had big hopes for what was inside. This box really shocked me in a good way because the items in this box I wouldn't of connected them to spirit work but after reading the information it all makes sense and I actually learn some new things which is amazing all on its self. So I will start of with the altar cloth that I got in this months box. It was a white velvet cloth which you can see I have used it as such in the images I took above. I thought this was a handy addition to my collection because I don't actually have a white altar cloth. This one is the perfect size for my little silver table chest which will now cover. The next item I will speak about and actually share the information I got about it too was the Ancestor money. Which first look I thought it was strange but after reading into the information about it I completely understand it now. I have already planned to have this on my samhain altar after learning more about this. I think its a great idea. Here's the information they added to the box about this: "Within traditions, ancestor veneration is a big part of life. Remembering those who have gone before us is a typical tradition found all year but often gets more attention at samhain. Around this time, the setting up of ancestor altars is common, many traditions in mexico, Spain and the Americans include the leaving of meals, candles, offerings and songs for their ancestors as a way of keeping their memory and spirits alive. With some traditions, ancestors require things from the living, food, liquids and money, this is where ancestor money is commonly used. Made from joss paper, it is believed that the burning of the money sends it over to the spirit plane and to the ancestors, if the money burns with a green flame, it is believed your offerings for your relatives has been accepted and they may choose to help and improve your life." So after reading that I understand why they added this into this months box and I really like the idea of burning it to send to my family that have passed. The next item is Kananga water, now this is another new item that I haven't heard off but I have heard of Florida water which this is from the same family I believe. I had to again go to my information and read about why this was added and again after learning about this I understand completely. The information includes: A traditional cologne using within american and hoodoo tradition. Based on a french cologne, it has an old-fashioned aromatic scent with amazing spiritual properties. This water is used to leave as offerings for the spirits and ancestors, cleanse ancestor and spirit altars with this water before setting up and leave as an offering for spirits and ancestors." So I need to google if this is ok for cats to drink before I leave some out on my altar just because I know my cats will drink it and they are a pain in the bum. I like the idea of leaving this out for my ancestors though and I may have to find away around my cats. The next item I was over the moon to get because I just love theses and my collection of theses are growing slowly. I got an obsidian pendulum. I just love this item and the energy I get from this is just amazing. I will happily use this with my pendulum board this samhain. I will include some information I got here: "A wonderful method of connecting with spirits, can be used as divination or spirit work. Obsidian is a protective crystal, helping to keep away anything negative. Use with caution for spirit work, or as a way of entering your subconscious to find the answers to deep questions you haven't found the answers for yet." The next item smells amazing and I love getting theses style of items because they are always so handy to have. The High Altar oil is an oil created for spirit work. The information about this includes: "This particular oil is high altar oil designed to create a space suitable for spirit workings and to attract positive spirits into a space that you can work with, ask for assistance and communicate with." I love getting oils from The Witch's Heart because their oils can always be used on skin and never irritates my skin which is a big bonus in my eyes. This is such a handy oil to have and I am really happy to get this. I also got a beautiful smelling offering glass candle. This candle can burn for 120 hours which is a 5 day candle if you wanted to burn it for the whole 5 days. I personally wont. I will use it through the samhain month on my altar because I work and wont be able to have it on all the time. This candle smells amazing and I really need to know what hearth put in her candle because I need that scent! This months crystal is petrified wood, which isn't a crystal as such as more of a fossil but its a new one for me and I am happy to add it to my ever growing collection. I just love learning about new crystals and this one is a new one for me. The energy it hold is amazing and I am looking forward to working with this one. Overall this box was amazing like all the others hearth has done and will continue to do. I am hoping to be able to get next months box but I can't promise because they sell out as fast as they are put on her website and also with christmas coming up I may have to think about the pennies. I will see you all in the next post and I hope you have a great week ahead. Blessed be x MissDoomie x Comments are closed.
