Apple candle spell in the cemetery with the Ancestors
Apple candle spell in the cemetery with the Ancestors
I am the Honey Mother
Slow and sweet as wine on Sunday
I am the Blood Mother
Red and rich as rubies
I am the Milk Mother
Soft and quiet as snow on the mountain
I am the Poison Mother
Secret as the Moon sleeping
I am the Medicine Mother
Wise and fragrant as the bundled herbs
I am the Ripening Mother
Deep in the endless cycle of birth and decay.
