The new herb section is ready! We’ll be adding to it in the coming weeks and months. What’s your favourite herb? What should we be sure to stock?
07/27/2023
I had the stud finder out today at the shop. Hanging up the new herb wall. But of course it got me thinking about every time this tool is out folks get to joking about it. And how joking can be a way to avoid being serious about our desires. Which got me thinking about how important it is in magic to own what you want.
-
Looking for love? Own that.
-
Looking for anonymous s*x? Own that too.
-
Or anything else. Be honest with yourself. Be clear in your magic. It will work so much better. And we’ve got you covered with magical tools for all of it. Just be respect when asking - I’m talking to you Mr. Stud finder.

And of course we’ll deliver it if you can’t swing by the shop.

When I find myself having the same conversation with clients every day all day it’s got to be something in the greater atmosphere. Perhaps astrologically or just culturally.
