Are you finding yourself standing at a crossroads and uncertain which direction is the best one to head down? We all come across these places at many points in our lives - new jobs, new relationships, and financial shifts being the most common reasons that people seek guidance from the tarot or the spirits.

Amber Pixie has been reading tarot for over 20 years and has been working with her junk oracle and other divination techniques for a decade and more. I’m open to doing different spreads than what is listed.

Friends, I am excited to announce that not only is my rosemary alive through her second winter, but that she’s thriving and growing! 😍 Scores of deceased rosemaries have sacrificed their lives to my care until I finally found the right combination of factors: a raised bed with good drainage, many hours of sun, and a position under the eaves to deflect direct rain. #wncmountains #gardening #mediterraneanplants #culinaryherbs #cottagegarden #pixiespocket #kitchengarden https://ift.tt/33oLbgH

It is the first of December and even though it’s cold and foraging is slim, there is a spreading carpet of magic on the earth. Chickweed is bright and fresh. It’s curling up from under the fallen leaves and even if our forecast holds true and we get snow next week, the chickweed will thrive! A fresh food and an amazing healer, chickweed is also something that I use as a touchstone to help get me through the dark, gray parts of winter. Knowing that there is a vibrant green patch living just under the cold snow like a little coal is an inspiration when there is little else green and alive. #chickweed #plantenergy #herbalism #foraging #edibleweeds #eatyourweeds #permaculture #pixiespocket https://ift.tt/2szwER7

These creamy, chilled bacon drippings are about to become Bacon Fat Gingersnaps - a staple at the Feastday table for our family! It isn’t just the trendiness of bacon that drives me to make this sweet, salty treat, but rather my desire to use up a perfectly good fat that many folks dump out. Every home I’ve lived in had a jar of bacon grease on the stove to cook with.

This sweet chrysanthemumplant brings me joy every morning with its vivid flowers and hardy greens. It laughs at the frost, delights in the cold, and reminds me to find joy even as it gets colder and darker. #greenman #chrysanthemums #fallflowers #autumnvibes #embracingthedarkness #pixiespocket https://ift.tt/2BGgrLa

One of my most popular homebrew recipes! I have a batch of dandelion flower and nettle brew bubbling away right now...can’t wait to see how it goes!

Tasty #calendula flowers on an overcast day. My darling wee pixie is growing so fast, using words, using her feet to run, bravely falling and trying again, fearless and fierce-willed! I am proud of her and honored to be her mama. ❤️😊 #16monthsold #thoughshebebutlittlesheisfierce #weepixie #pixiespocket #staliaoftheknife https://ift.tt/2odGgyB

Bottle, bottle, bottle! In the past two weeks, I’ve bottled 5 gallon of porter and 5 gallons of cherry mead. Time to start another batch of mead and more beer...a hopefully never-ending cycle! I bottled the mead in different ways. There are some corked wine bottles for long-term storage, some swing top bottles of varying sizes to take to parties or give as gifts, and a few beer bottles. I even tried priming those so that I might end up with sparkling mead. I’ll let you know in a few weeks! #homebrew #alewives #meadmaking #melomel #mead #nectarofthegods #womenwhobrew #puttingaway #pixiespocket #herbalbrewing #bottlingday #homebrewers #mead #ashevillenc https://ift.tt/2rgTpIT

I started a five gallon batch of porter last weekend and used some of the sparge and drained grain tea to add to a batch of mugwort beer. This brew is a wyrd thing, a cross between a beer and a wine. It’s water, freshly harvested mugwort, a few ferny yarrow leaves, and 2 cups of unbleached sugar, about 1 cup of chocolate porter grain tea, and a dry ale yeast. It’ll be interesting, dark and rich. I make a gallon of mugwort brew every year as part of the last harvest of the herbs before the first frost, but I’ve never made it the same way twice! I’ll sometimes drink a small cup of it whenever I do divination or dream work, as mugwort is a good ally for such work. #alewives #mugwort #hedgewitch #divinationtools #sacredbrewing #witchesofinstagram #herbalbrewing #pixiespocket #womenwhobrew #kitchenwitchery https://ift.tt/2MYNvDt

I walked my yard this morning and picked a few elderflowers, a rose, a few chamomile flowers, some honeysuckle, and red clover heads. After shaking them to remove bugs, into a jar they went! Now, covered in vodka, it waits to become a floral cordial in a few weeks. It’s so easy, and beyond making a tasty tipple, it’s a great way to connect with a foraging space. What’s blooming in your neck of the woods? #foraging #infuseyourbooze #flowers #drinkstagram #boozyfruit #pixiespocket #broadcast #wildcrafting #edibleflowers #hedgerow http://bit.ly/2X5k6i5

I don’t have an exact recipe for this elderberry cordial remedy. It was about a cup of fresh elderberries that were frozen and cooked down in about two cups of water with a 1/8 cup of crushed rose hips, a cinnamon stick or two, and some sliced ginger root. Once it simmered for a while I strained it, stirred in some honey, and added moonshine enough to keep it from fermenting or molding (about 1/2 cup or so at my best guess). I add a bit to our fire cider shots along with orange juice when we’re feeling immuno-compromised! #remedy #elderberrysyrup #hedgewitch #grannymedicine #pixiespocket http://bit.ly/2AKvy6i

Goood morning! The coffee is steeping and so is an herbal infusion. The tea is made with two dandelion leaves, red clover, and a bag of Mother’s Milk tea from @tradmedicinals. I await the coffee with anticipation and await the tea with patience. The first shall be quaffed and the other sipped throughout the day! #dailyherbalism #herbalism #frenchpresscoffee #masonjarmagic #pixiespocket #goodmorning #sweetsaturday #coffee #irishcreaminmycoffee #hailcaffeina https://ift.tt/2RJjjhm
