August Full Moon soap

The August Full Moon soap is Lavender Basil. And now we have a goat's milk lotion to go with it. The lotion was also infused with full moon energy on August 29.


Full Moon Over Westfarm soaps have been infused with energy from Fluorite crystals and the full moon’s light on August 29, 2015. This moon is the Grain Moon or Barley Moon. Lavender essential oil is a wonderful scent for wiping away mental clouds and moving towards clarity of thought, allowing us to discern the dusk of a matter - the shades of gray. Basil essential oil balances and harmonizes a person, allowing the light of the spirit to illuminate the soul. It awakens, cheers, and uplifts the spirit. Fluorite is a stone used to enhance mental clarity and reduce instability and disorder. This brings a wiser, more balanced view of life and improves decision making, These traits enable one to manifest ideas and bring plans to fruition.

Blue Moon in July

July has two full moons. The second one is on July 31.
For this Blue Moon, Full Moon Over Westfarm soaps will be infused with the energy of the full moon’s light on July 31, 2015. This somewhat rare Blue Moon, which happens every 30 months or so is the perfect moon to pair with rare fragonia oil from Australia. The unique molecular balance gives Fragonia its power of harmonization and rebalancing, and helps to release many old blockages from an emotional perspective and is especially good for helping one attain a balanced emotional state. 

You can choose from either the Kissing Moons or "Life is Good" sunflower. 
or message me on FB   Westfarm Goats Milk Soap.
Available after July 31.


 

First full moon in July

Full Moon Over Westfarm soaps have been infused with rose quartz crystals in energy of the full moon’s light on July 1, 2015. This moon is the Rose Moon or Thunder Moon depending on which culture you ask. Rose essential oil gives emotional comfort and protects you from the storm (perfect for the Thunder moon) This full moon may bring about a feeling of being overwhelmed by all that is not “right” in your life and therefore a good time to take a break from it all to do something for yourself that is nurturing, loving and peaceful.

I was a bit late getting these soaps made, but I did get them done in time for the full moon on July 1. However they will not be ready until July 10th as they need to cure a bit more. This month the soaps are the moon orb and wood sprites (soap is not blue).

Full Moon Names


Some months I have a couple of different full moon names to go with my soap. I generally use the Celtic names, however occasionally I will use a Native American name or one from another culture.

 

"Each full moon represents the universe in brilliant glory, wholeness or completeness. A wonderful time to work on your own personal spiritual lessons, growth and enlightenment. But as with each phase of the moon, each cycle of the full moon also contains it's own special energy. Aligning your intentions with these energies can also enhance your spiritual work.
Ages ago, cultures around the world kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to each recurring full moon. Their names were applied to the entire month in which each occurred. Today we have the advantage of aligning our energies with the cultures we're drawn to, or to the perspective our tradition follows. So if you're of a European tradition, or Norse or Native American tradition; you can pick and choose the name set that you feel most connected to."

Midsummer soaps

Soaps for the summer solstice! These are available later in June.
Full Moon Over Westfarm soaps infused with crystals in the light of the Sun and Moon on the Summer Solstice of June 21, 2015. This Celtic holiday of Midsummer is under the influence of the Mead (Honey) Moon. Celebrate the longest day of the year with these sun-shaped soaps filled with ritually chosen yellow-gold essential oils. Lemon is good for clarifying but in a very daytime, high-noon way, throwing the matter into great contrast. Traditionally, yarrow was harvested on Midsummer's day for magical use in divination. It also helps rid the body of toxins. Chamomile is associated with the Sun and the element of water. It helps cleanse and invigorate the throat chakra.

 

Soap moving fast!

Oh wow! Already out of the Fire Dragon soap. Will be making more of these soon for those of you that missed this batch!

June Full Moon Soaps

Full Moon Over Westfarm soaps have been infused with crystals and the energy of the full moon’s light on June 2, 2015. Botanicals ruled by Mars is the choice for this moon. This is the moon involving physical strength and courage. Black Pepper (Planet Mars & Fire element) is a strengthening scent, lending courage and warrior alertness. Ginger is a wonderfully warm Mars scent that is great for use in love/sex magick, defensive spells, protection from nightmares and from ghosts that bring illness. The high-energy scent of Oranges is said to communicate the joy of angels to human beings. Vetiver is an elemental Earth fragrance that helps calm dreams and soothe sleep, thus is good where nightmares have been a problem.

May is Faerie Month

May is Faerie Month! Legend has it that the faeries return from their winterlands on Beltane (May eve). So the Full Moon soaps this month are faerie wings, Tulip Faerie, and the kissing moon soaps available after they have infused in the full moon on May 3! Crystals are laid on the soaps during the full moon infusion, which adds the energy from them as well. This month's crystal infusions are rose quartz, rhodocrosite and a Faerie Cross (staurolite).


The Tulip Faerie is connected to Venus, thus the use of Rose Geranium oil is useful as part of a regimen for cleansing the aura. In the language of flowers, this magick herb stands for happiness, and indeed, this scent is very cheerful. We have invited the faeries to be a part of the soaps this month. Soaps are in the shape of faerie wings, a Tulip faerie and kissing moons.
