Hello folks, I feel like this email has been a long, very long time coming! This month has been rather chaotic on my end and I feel like my words are strange and jumbled and unprepared, but I will type along anyway.



These updates are a bit personal, which is why I type like this and like to share. I want to let y'all know I am a human behind all this. I feel like y'all know that, but in this age, I like to emphasize that. I like to emphasize that your support, has a huge and positive effect on my life, it gives me drive and focus in my work. It puts a roof over my head, helps me get my car fixed, lets me buy a nice treat for myself every now and again. It lets me do the work I truly love and for that I am very grateful.



This month and the last has been really challenging for me in terms of managing my time, social obligations, dealing with a whole bunch of expensive car issues, a computer crash and all these little things that were derailing me and taking my time away from getting this update up sooner, or doing more work around it. I took a deep breath and accepted the course of things, rather than fighting it, I let it carry me where I am.



So, here we are.



It's Friday the 13th on the day of Venus. I have many bits of medicine brewing, some interesting perfumes macerating in alcohol, wild harvesting plans marked on my calendar and a good little heap of goodies to put up into my shop right now.



This Sunday, when Mercury stations direct (yes, we've been in a fickle little retrograde cycle!) my shop will open up.



Before I get into what I'm offering up, I wanted to let you all know that Patreon has been a driving force behind me being able to do the work around this and especially future shop updates. It gives a consistent and fairly reliable source of income and support to pursue herbalism, tarot and the like. That said, all my Patreon supporters receive a 5% off code in my shop for supporting me. Even folks who support me at the $1 level. I know some express feeling strange or bad about even $1, but even $1 is amazing to me.



Supporting me there gives you early access to much of what I'm doing in and around these updates. So if a monthly sustainable support around my work interests you, you can check all that out here .

Without further adieu, you'll be able to find all this in my shop on April the 15th at 9AM PST...
