Friday 13th – PERFECT!

What a fantastic morning.  Awoken by the dulcit tones of my mobile pinging or rather “harmoniously harping” with text messages telling me that I must get to the shops to buy the Daily Echo and what a great article!!!  Enjoy!

EMBRACING THE ENERGY:

VISITORS could find themselves truly spellbound by the latest offering in Lytchett Minster.

This is because witch Sandy Cristel officially opens her new shop and healing centre at the village’s Courtyard Centre tomorrow.

Sandy, who describes herself as a traditional witch, will be on hand to offer a range of alternative services, including tailor-made spells, alternative healing and readings.

“Being a traditional witch, I embrace and utilise the natural forces of the universe, ensuring a balance and equilibrium in my work,” explained Sandy.

She is confident her therapies can complement mainstream treatments for a range of ailments and problems Sandy, who uses traditional methods of healing passed down through her family, has also studied Shamanic Ama Deus and Kundelini Reiki healing.

And her shop boasts a range of witchy curios and unique gifts for those looking for something out of the ordinary.

Sandy said: “I have been a witch all my life and it is about time that we came out of the shadows and shared some of our knowledge.

“The difference between my path and a wiccan ‘white’ witch is that I do not believe that energy or life can be sustained on only positive energy.

“Nature and the universe itself does not and cannot even exist this way,” she added.

“Negative energy is not always bad nor harmful, it is simply necessary – there has to be balance.”

Sandy says she never casts the same spell twice – instead tailoring everything to the specific individual.

She insisted: “You should not feel guilty for asking the universe for help.

“The energy is all around us and is there for us to tap into it to enrich our lives and help to mold our future on the path we desire.”

Isn’t it funny just how life seems to unravel in front of you sometimes.   The market stall was becoming less and less productive and we seemed to working harder and harder and not getting anywhere – UNTIL …. the perfect thing happened.  An opportunity to run a shop!!

Welcome to “Sandy Cristel – The Wytch of Lytchett” where I will be able to provide healing, courses, workshops, readings and my beloved can run the shop half.  It is all so perfect and all so very exciting!!!  The shop is located at The Courtyard Craft Centre in Lytchett.  Entrance is free, the courtyard is open 7 days a week, however, most of the shops are closed on a Monday apart from the Pet Centre, The Cafe and the Pottery place.

We have been working our behinds off the last couple of weeks painting, glossing, laying the floor and now we are currently building up the units.

We are actually hoping to quietly open this weekend – if all goes to plan and we don’t burn out, that is … but the official opening will most likely be middle of July when things calm down a bit and we have everything set up exactly how we want it.

I will not upload any photos yet until it is ready – watch this space ……

:)

Looking Good …

I took this photo last week of the Market Stall and I am really surprised at just how much it has developed from when we first started.  Isn’t it looking a treat now but I am wondering just how much BETTER it is going to be in the future – it’s all exciting stuff!

Big thank you goes out to my fellow market traders at Wimborne Hall 3, whom are wonderfully supportive and really look out for me … all your advice and knowledge is so valuable and I appreciate and love you all for your kindness.

Hope everyone out there is well – lovely meeting many of you at the weekends – do keep coming in to say Hi – I am at Wimborne Market every Saturday and Sunday in Hall 3.

You might like to see the new additions to my stall……Hand made Stab Dolls and Wish Angels, spell kits, mojo bags and my latest little idea was Chakra Balancing Pouches.  I love adding a bit of “me” to the stall.  Makes it unique and interesting.  I will be putting these up on my website eventually – I am not sure what happened lately but there seems to be some hours missing in the day now….  :D

Sandy Cristel Market Stall

At last! Our new exciting business venture is now underway.  My beloved and I have been working really hard in finding quality exotic witchy items to sell on our Market Stall.  We think we have almost cracked it!  The launch was brilliant!

The big dream catcher (in the photo) was sold right after we had finished arranging the table – I have to admit I had my beady eye on that for myself!  So, time to order a few more of those!  I only ordered one to start with as I was unsure what people were interested in.   I also did a few Oracle readings, sold some of my own spell kits and mojo bags and continously fought off a frenzy of customers for my peacock feathers – and no, they are not unlucky at all – where do people get that notion from? Is it a Christian thing or something?  In India they are considered as wealth and prosperity – and as I have a houseful of the things, I have to say I haven’t felt the least bit unlucky at all! In fact, I am feeling truly blessed at this time in my life!

Our first market day was at the Sunday Wimborne Market, then Swanage and then Dorchester – the response has been really positive.  I have to say my fellow market traders are absolute darlings – it is so refreshing to work with people who work for themselves.  I also love the chatter, the banter and the interaction with the public, exhausting as it is, I go home smiling and happy.

Thank you to those of you who came by to say “Hi” – if you wish to catch us at the next market you can see the planned market dates on my “Sandys Store” page, however, please email me a day or so before if you are travelling a long way – things can unexpectedly change depending on weather and, of course, my children.

On an end note, I have adjusted my prices on my website for healing, readings and spell kits. They are now considerably lower than previously. Whilst I was living in Germany I was not totally aware of the dire financial crisis in the UK… until I moved back.  It is truly heartbreaking what has happened and is happening to this Country – however don’t get me started on Politics – it is just such a shock how much you notice after living abroad for over a decade. *shakes head in disbelief*.

On a happier note – the Summer is just around the corner! :D   woop woop
