Jimmy Page-another "Page" of Pentacles-(a short blurb for you;)

Jimmy Page lead guitar player of Led Zeppelin and a Capricorn -represented by Pentacles (many tarot decks relate astrological signs to the court cards). Jimmy Page born January 9th-Pentacles-earth- Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo.
Jimmy owned an occult bookstore called, "Equinox" in London, UK

"Pagey had said there was not one bookshop in London with a good collection of occult books, which made him mad, as he was getting into all of that at the time."

I think he gave the shop up about end of the 70's.

Pagey also owned from the early 1970s to the early 1990s, Boleskine House, the former residence of occultist Aleister Crowley. Parts of Page's fantasy sequence in the film "The Song Remains the Same", were filmed around Boleskine House.  

Location of Boleskine house: South-east side of Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands, and apparently suffered significant fire damage in December 2015.

Are You Doing Everything Right To Manifest Your Dream?

Are You Doing Everything Right To Manifest Your Dream?

Here are the seven steps to manifest anything you want 

Step 1: Get really really clear on what you want. ...(Hmm, what do you really want?)

Step 2: Ask the universe. ...

Step 3: Work toward your goals a bit every day. ...

Step 4: Trust the process. ..

Step 5: Receive and acknowledge what you get. ...Be grateful!

Step 6: Keep Your Vibration High. ...Remember to become conscious of your thoughts....        Everything you think, say or feel becomes your reality. 

Step 7: Clear your resistance- by doing some of the next things listed here: 

Appreciation. Appreciation and love are identical vibrations. Appreciation is the absence of resistance. If all you did was look for things to appreciate you would live a happy, joyous life. Write a list of the things in your life that you appreciate and are thankful for. The longer your list the better.

Meditation. When you relax and quiet your mind, your attention is turned away from what holds your vibration in a lower place. It only takes 10 to 15 minutes a day of meditation to significantly improve your life.

Spend time in nature !!!!! Listen  to music you love...pet your cat/or dog 😉😸🐕

Releasing resistance is critical in manifesting what you want and living a positive life. When you set the intention to let go of anything that is not serving you, your life will transform and you will thrive.

*Try a guided meditation with Joe Treacy, his stuff is pretty cool and on youtube. There is one  called ,"Guided Meditation - Clearing Blocks and Negativity with your Spirit Guide.  I will put the link on my side bar, where all the extra info is on BlueMoon Tarot blog.

So how long does this manifesting take to work? Read this: cut/paste

Part 2 of Pixies, Elves, and Other Creatures- K's contribution

Creature Feature: Kappa

Hello again everyone!

Have you ever heard of Japanese Yokai? The term "Yokai" has a few different meanings: a creature, presence, or phenomena that is mysterious or eerie in nature. Yokai culture is quite popular in Japan and the Kappa is probably one of the most well known types of Yokai. I first came across a photo of this interesting creature while reading up on Japanese history and legends a few years ago and discovered that there is quite a background when it comes to this once widely feared Yokai.

No one is really sure where the name "Kappa" originated from, but stories began circling about the strange Yokai as early as 1444. The Kappa became more widely mentioned in texts between 1603-1697, where it is described in detail and stories of attempts to drag humans, horses and cows underwater were documented.

Kappa, or, "river child", is also known as Kawataro, Komahiki ("horse puller"), or Kawatora ("river tiger"). The appearance of a Kappa paints a rather grotesque picture; it is humanoid and typically about the size of a child. In addition to a large shell on its back, a Kappa is always depicted with a dish-shaped indentation on the top of its head, which is filled with water and is said to be the source of its power. Often a Kappa will have a turtle-esque face, and a warty or scaly lizard body (although there have been other depictions) and in some stories it is said that their arms are connected to each other through the torso and can slide from one side to the other.  They emanate a fishy smell and can swim very well, but do occasionally come on land, where they cover their head plate with a metal cap for protection as they head to the mountains.

Kappa are said to live in and around water, such as rivers, moats, and ponds. As ultimate tricksters and troublemakers, they often emerge from these areas to wreak havoc on unsuspecting humans or cattle. Although their behaviour is often harmless, there are many stories of Kappa drowning people, kidnapping children, and eating human flesh or drinking blood of their victims. Kappa are used to warn children about the dangers lurking in rivers and lakes, and there are warning signs about Kappa by the water in many Japanese villages and towns. 

If you come across a Kappa, it is said that escape can be difficult. However, Kappa have a strange obsession with politeness and a deep sense of decorum, and if you make a deep bow, they will feel obliged to return the gesture. This causes the water from their head plate to spill out and they are unable to leave the position until the plate is refilled with water from the river or place where they reside, as this is their source of power. Apparently once a person refills the water plate, a Kappa is indebted to them for all eternity. Other methods of defeating a Kappa include detaching its arms (as this is another weakness), or sumo wrestling. Again, the Kappa will perform favours or share knowledge with the person. There are stories of Kappa performing all sorts of tasks for humans, like helping farmers, bringing fresh fish, and even giving medical advice.

According to legend, Kappas love cucumbers, to the point where they prefer eating them over children or anything else. They are often depicted with cucumbers in art, and Japanese parents will often bring a cucumber to the water's edge and write the name of their children, or their own names, onto the cucumber and throw it into the water where Kappa are said to live. The hope is that this act will appease the Kappa and allow the family to bathe safely.

Kappa love cucumbers!

The Kappa is said to reside especially in the Saga Prefecture of Japan, but you can see shrines and festivals dedicated to these Yokai throughout Japan, which deal with worshipping particularly helpful Kappa and asking for a good harvest.

Pixies, Elves, and Other Creatures. - This next entry is going to be a collaboration effort, so hope you like it. 😅

Exmouth Pixie- I had a cool Gran that was from South London. I never met my Gran, but she use to write to me and send me neat stuff. This Gran was into horoscopes, gambling, good luck charms, dancing etc., and all when it was frowned upon...My Gran was a free spirit type and a Sagittarius 💖
This one time she sent me an Exmouth Pixie and I thought, "wow Gran that looks evil"😟😈
So for the longest time I could not find much information about this Exmouth Pixie, but I have found a little bit out.

Exmouth Pixie

For those of you that don't know,  Exmouth is a seaside resort in East Devon, England, sited on the east bank of the mouth of the River Exe. I'm not sure I have been to Exmouth, but I have been to Devon and Cornwall.  My Pixie would be a Devon Pixie if he is from Exmouth, but I see more info on Cornwall Pixies (maybe its one and the same)...? Here is what I have found: Pixies are mythical creatures of folklore, considered to be particularly concentrated in the high moorland areas around Devon and Cornwall, suggesting some Celtic origin for the belief and name. Apparently they steal horses and children, & lead travellers astray.(good grief !) Pixies are believed to inhabit ancient underground ancestor sites such as stone circles, barrows, dolmens, ring forts or menhirs....They like to dance! Before the mid-19th century, pixies and fairies were taken seriously in much of Cornwall and Devon.  In some areas belief in pixies and fairies as real beings persists.
My pixie is from "Devon" and this is what is said about them: In Devon, pixies are said to be "invisibly small, and harmless or friendly to man."I was told: all who wear this charm will have luck, health and happiness! 
The Queen of the "Cornish" pixies is said to be "Joan the wad" and she is considered to be good luck or bring good luck. 

This is Joan

Creature Feature-

The "Creature" I'm going to write about is Ogopogo....
I live in B.C. western Canada, and in Canadian Folklore  Ogopogo is a lake monster reported to live in Okanagan Lake. The area kind of reminds me of northern Italy, with lakes and vineyards etc....The first nations people (native Indians of B.C.) have reported seeing Ogopogo since the 19th century. This lake monster kind of reminds me of Nessie in Scotland (same idea). As a child and visiting the area of Okanagan Lake, I was so afraid to swim in the lake thinking Ogopogo would get me😅 Ogopogo is said to be 40 to 50-foot-long (12 to 15 m), and here is a kids play area with an idea of what they think he/she might look like:
