Favorite Season
My favorite season is Autumn. I romanticize this time of year. Everything about it lights me up. There's this feeling in the air that is unexplainable. It's hauntingly beautiful. Magical. I was proposed to under a Full Blue Moon on Samhain, in the very place my partner first told me he had feelings for me and where he said, "I love you" for the first time. Then, the following year, we got married in October under a New Moon in Libra in Vermont.
F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote in 'The Great Gatsby', "Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the Fall". It seems as if, while everything around me in nature is getting ready to take it's final bow, I am reborn.
Something special I love to do this time of year is to take walks alone; where the only noise I hear is my boots against the fallen crimson and golden leaves. I also could sit on my front porch all day with a fire burning next to me, incense burning, hot coffee in my hand while watching the leaves fall like raindrops.
Celebrity Crush
My celebrity crush growing up was Heath Ledger. I fell in love with him while watching '10 Things I Hate About You' and 'A Knight's Tale'. The funny thing is, My partner, Nick, gets told that he looks like him! Current celebrity crush is Sam Heughan, who plays Jaimie Fraser in 'Outlander'!

So I was actually never a big tea drinker growing up. Coffee was always my #1. But one day while working at the cottage (way before the apothecary opened its doors) and jamming to Fleetwood Mac I noticed that there was a little leftover epiphany tea in the tea kettle from the day before so I decided to reheat it and give it a try…
I fell instantly in love! I made another full pot with fresh loose herbs that very moment and drank about 4 cups while working that day. There is something about drinking this magickal tea medicinally and mindfully that provides me a deep sense of clarity, intuition, remembrance and presence. I’ve always had a deep connection with the herb, Rosemary. She is a plant of remembrance. If you want to remember the roots of who your truly are and come home to your True Self, connect with the spirit of Rosemary by drinking this tea, wearing a crown of her, and meditating. If you’re ready to truly face yourself and notice your blind spots, she will show you what you need to see. She will fumigate all the bullshit right out of you. You have to be ready to actually make the changes and to do the work. That is why I drink this tea. I am ready. I am open. And it tastes delicious.
A little yummy tip from me, drink out of a clear mug, add our Lavender Honey and Butterfly Pea Flower Powder by Anima Mundi (or another brand of choice), watch the water change to blue then squeeze some lemon into it, stir with intention while gazing at the transitional dance from blue to purple! This was the first tea that opened my eyes that tea was actually good! Then I tried them all that we make and love them all.
Favorite Form of Self-Care
My favorite form of self-care are baths by candlelight and time in nature. My most essential form of self-care is practicing meditation daily.

Favorite Flower
My favorite flower is Lavender! I love that lavender represents healing and calmness. It's medicinal and also a delicious addition to a drink or dessert. Not to mention, it smells amazing and looks beautiful in any garden!
Favorite Season
My favorite season is Autumn! I love everything about this season. The cooler weather, the trees changing color, Halloween, pumpkin spice, apple cider donuts, and the comfy clothing. During Fall, I love to decorate, watch witchy and spooky movies, bake and be outside as much as possible. I always re-watch 'Gilmore Girls' (the coziest show ever)! My fiancé, Chris and I like to go to New England this time of year to enjoy hiking through the Fall foliage in the mountains. He even proposed to me on a mountain in October!
Go-To Drink
My favorite go-to drink is gin and lemonade! If I'm feeling fancy, I'll add dried lavender, mint, or even blueberries.

This is such a hard question to answer because we carry so many beautiful products, but if I have to pick, it's the Rose Quartz Whipped Soap Scrub. It was the first product I tried. It smells so good and leaves my skin feeling soft and refreshed. It's an important part of my self-care routine now! I love making a little ritual out of it in the shower or bath.
What I Want To Be When I Grow Up
When I grow up, I want to (continue to) be an artist. I have always felt so passionate about art. Creating and crafting bring me so much fulfillment. Whether it's painting, candle-making, crocheting, or the latest DIY project I found on Pinterest, I love it all! I hope in the future I always create in some way, whether it's for myself or to share with others in my Etsy shop.

Favorite Flower
Ranunculus. I love that they come in a variety of colors from deep purple to bright red. They remind me of poppies, but with wavy stems! They are fun and playful and that feels true to my nature.
A Cause That Means a lot to Me
Prison reform. I think a system that focuses more on rehabilitation would create a lot of positive changes for our communities. Also, supporting family planning efforts, like Planned Parenthood, is important for reducing crime rates and creating resources for those in need, while also nurturing community health.
Favorite Form of Self-Care
Reading a few chapters of a book each morning. This practice helps me start the day off slow and with focus. I love that my cat Loki comes and snuggles with me while I read. This is one of my favorite rituals and I couldn't imagine starting my day without it!
Favorite Season
I love fall! The smells, the crisp air, the flavors, the colors – I really enjoy it all!
Favorite Mystical Blossoms Product
This is such a tough question! I feel like I have to pick at least two, Pink Priestess Soap and our Recall Tea. As a lucid dreamer, I enjoy nightly practices that nurture restful sleep, and Recall is a beautiful offering for this. Pink Priestess features geranium oil and it reminds me of being a child. The soap is a beautiful cleanser and it also holds loving memories I have of taking baths as a kid. And that's just a fraction of the magic that herbs can conjure!
