Ah, the air is crisp and Autumn is here.  This time of year is my very favorite of all seasons.  I wanted to place a link here to a page that I find is as best a description of Samh'ain as I've read in a while....it's simple and easy to understand.

So, to all of my fellow October lovers, HAPPY SAMHAIN!  May your Fall be full of fun and festivities!  BLESSED BE!

If you are always shopping online as I am, you may be interested in a new referral CASH BACK program I just joined.  It's great because almost every single online retailer I use is listed here, including ebay.  AND, they give back anywhere from 2% - 20% on items you buy through their site....FREE MONEY for doing what you are doing anyway ~ shopping!  I found out about it from another seller on ebay that I bought something from. I've placed a link below so that all you have to do is follow the link here to join. Any items you purchase through their website (just bookmark their site & go there first to shop through) will give you money back monthly, direct to your paypal account. I honestly made $90 my first month...now, that is REAL SAVINGS!!!  It only takes a minute to register & requires no type of credit card or personal info....So, why don't you JOIN NOW?   You have nothing to lose and more than a few dollars to gain!!

Click here to get CASH BACK on ebay & other online retailer purchases!

Just a reminder to re-charge your enchanted items this weekend during the full moon.  You can check back with my lunar calendar to confirm the perfect fullness percentage.  Any time this weekend would be fine, though.  Remember, just 2 hours in the full moonlight will re-charge your spells & blessings.  Or, just leave them out all night as I do.  Don't worry about cloud coverage or rain, your item will still benefit from the lunar charge.  Placing your haunted & enchanted jewelry on a windowsill is fine, too!  Every Goddess love a full moon    //(*_*)\\

CALIFORNIA WHITE SAGE SMUDGE STICKS ARE HERE !! 

Just a note to say that I am now carrying white sage smudge sticks from California.  So, all of you fellow smudgers out there will be able to buy your fresh white sage right here.  For all of you new to smudging, I'll soon be adding a blog all about it.  Basically, it's a powerful cleansing technique from the Native North American Tradition. Smudging calls on the spirits of sacred plants to drive away negative energies and restore balance.  It is the art of cleansing yourself, your baubles, your house, & your environment using simple ritual & ceremony of smoke bowl blessing.  The smoke ascends to the heavens ~ to the world of spirits ~ acting as a spiritual messenger. They are high quality California White Sage and they will be enchanted by Shaye with a blessing for Cleansing, Removing Negativity, & Evil Spirits.  Trust me once you go smudge, you'll never go back!  When you buy one of these smudge sticks, you will get a ritual chant that friend, Shaye (Native American), taught me to go along with your smudging.  It is a chant sent out in 7 directions....Wonderful!  Price:  $9.50 each

Merry Meet! You have found the new cyberspace home of Bewitched Baubles. I am so happy to have this new form of direct contact to all of my eBay friends and new customers, alike. I will be using this news forum to keep you all updated on my recents offerings of wicca blessed jewelry and otherwise haunted jewels & collectibles. When I figure out how to use the system, I should be able to post images here, too. So, you’ll all have an update of how my last wicca or witch haunted estate auction went, or what my recent good “find” is, in the world of magic. Until the next time, Merry Part and Blessed Be.
