Many other practioner's, therapist's, spiritual healers etc come to see me for support when times are tough in their own lives. It takes humility to know when we need help and support from other's, to gain a different perspective and aquire additional power to solve the mirade of problems that we may burdened with. I to have my Elders to whom i consult when confusion comes knocking. Individually we are powerful, together we are unstoppable... Bless "When I came to Yanu I was in so much trouble, both of my own making and from another source. I was feeling overwhelmed, exhausted from fighting, and I didn't see how to resolve it all. My dreams showed me that Yanu was the one I could trust to help me with this crisis, and so I went! I was very impressed with his effective and straightforward way of working, not to mention his generosity of spirit. I found the session very beautiful, and I learned some lessons about myself that I won't forget. Afterwards my most pressing problems disappeared within a few weeks time. My whole energy has changed, my own spiritual work has changed, and I am being flooded with big insights. I'm actually able to see my way forward and to work hard. Positive changes keep on happening. BAM. I still have a long road ahead of me, but I feel excited about that instead of scared. I am very thankful to Yanu and the spirits for coming to my aid in a crisis, and for pushing me forward on my path. Isabel, fortuneteller" Click on image below to go to Isabel's website ....   I often ponder what exactly is going on when we perform our various ceremonies, rituals & prayers !
Somehow and that's the magik, it creates potential and possibility inside the otherwise impossible and miraculously transforms & manifests it. If this is the case and i know without a shadow of a doubt it is, then something so strange and marvelous would be hard to find. It is a constant fascination of mine, that if this method works, if communion and response from an intelligent universe is real, then what is going on here, what is it that we are immersed in. This is not a question to answer but a rather mystery to relish & explore in ! Pan's GrailPan whispered in our ears ' Come to the woods, come dance with me in the green, drink from the Fountain of Dreams, come to me, come to me '... We live a Magickal Life one full of wonder and transformation, every day unfolds like a story from a fantastical novel, yet it it not fantasy, it is our lives and it is magickal !         Mi Espíritu Gitana / My Gypsy Spirit People from all over the world come to LaBotanica at the weekends when we are open. Every person that walks in the door is a complete stranger that leaves a friend. They are very often blown away that in just 15 mins so much deep personal insight, understanding and guidance can come from receiving a reading. I have to laugh, i have the easiest job in the world, i simply sit, pray and open myself to the Gitana Spirit that walks with me. She guides my hands, the cards and even the way i lay them, infact i do very little and she does everything. Entering this light trance she talks through me to those in need and her accuracy is uncanny and her guidance unwaveriing. She has been with me a longtime now and helps guides me on this road of life, lifting my Spirit with her songs, with her strength and with her humour. Thank you mi Gitana and may your blessings touch all those that you meet through me in this life and when i die may your sngs guide me home to the Land of the Ancestors.. A Magical Life Both me and my beloved went out walking at dusk after performing a small ceremony at home, asking for guidance and protection on some issues we have been dealing with in our personal lives. Whilst meditating i saw us walking down a path in our local park by a canal, a beautiful green area just down the road from our house. Immediately afterwards we put on our jackets and went for a walk in the exact same park as i had seen in my meditation. It was beautiful in the now darkening spring evening walking there hand in hand chatting about nothing in particular. Then as often happens a strange sensation ran through us both and we both immediately stopped to acknowledge it. Just a few steps further and there at our feet from a broken branch was Algiz the Rune of protection, i instantly picked it up thanking the Spirits for this blessing. Laughingly we continued walking, then again the strange tingling sensation, a few steps more and now at our feet Isa, the Rune of standstill, ice and withdrawal. Picking up this magical symbol we continued walking but now in silent reverence. Just a few minutes more and once again the strange sensation and now at our feet lay Fehu the Rune of fulfillment , possessions and nourishment. Once again thanking the Spirits for these talismanic messages from the Otherworld we continued walking feeling now very loved and protected Then about 15 minutes more and something even stranger happened. Once again we both felt the strange tingling up and down our spines, we both stopped looking to the ground for possibly another Rune at our feet but none were to be found. Now both buzzing intensely i turned on the flashlight on my mobile phone as it was now dark and the sun had set. As i turned on the light it instantly reflected off of something at the base of a tree just a few meters in front of us. 'Whats that' i said out loud to Jolinde, not believing our eyes as we walked closer, there at the foot of a large tree, was a small doorway a small faery door firmly fixed to the tree. We both stood there in amazement this tingling sensation increasing through our bodies until we entered into communion with the landscape, with that that had given us a clear message through the fallen runes and this beautiful Faery Gateway..... In England i can imagine seeing such a doorway walking the winding roads of Somerset or Cornwall but in Haarlem never have i seen such a thing. Our little neighborhood is turning out to be a very magical place, what with the Pan statue here, our local Kabouter Garden and now this.... Upon returning home i bound the Runes we had found together and have placed them above our front door as a binding Rune to protect us from those that may wish us ill. Magic is a foot, the Spirit World is always close to us and communicating constantly if we would only listen. May you all be as blessed as we are ! Click on Images to make larger
