Announcing "Pay What You Can" Reiki sessions in Midland Ontario, through Midland Ontario Reflexology.
We offer Reiki sessions on this sliding scale to make the modality available for anyone who wants to try this healing art. If Reiki is something that you feel will benefit you in managing your stress or unrest,  a therapy that will make you feel better, we want to make it something you can access on a regular basis.

So yes, you can have a reiki session in Midland for $15, if that's the amount you feel you can pay. Our Reiki sessions last about an hour, so we usually suggest to our clients that they think about what they can pay for the hour. If you make $15 an hour at your job, then an hour of time is worth that much. If you make $19 or $25, you can pay those amounts too.
If you are used to getting your nails done at $40 for the hour, or your hair done for $60, and that amount feels fair and equal to the amount of healing you feel you are receiving, then that can be your "pay what you can." price.

Often people are uncomfortable with this sliding pay what you can scale, and they prefer to be given a number. When that is the case, I like to suggest they have a Reflexology session at $40 per hour, and I include the Reiki in their session at no cost.

The office for Reiki is located downtown on Elizabeth street, and at this time (February 2019) is only open for appointments on the weekends. As it gets lighter in the evenings, we'll open up weekday evening availability.

Feel free to inquire using our forms on the Reiki Webpage, to contact about the details of having a Reiki session for yourself.

Lori-Grace is a Certified Traditional Usui Reiki Practitioner/Instructor, as well as a Fusion Reiki Practitioner. 

A bonus offer that I just had to share. This is exciting!
I love doing readings on the phone for clients who are long distance from me (or may have visited my office when they've been in the area on vacation - I live in cottage country, and we have a LOT of visitors during the summer!) But I can't always be available for the phone, when those clients are ready to have a reading.

The company that I use for my phone readings, Keen, has made a list of advisors ready for any time of day that you are ready! And, they have made an offer that I think is so good, I wanted to share:

Even with the deal listed above, I usually advise clients to prepare to spend about $10 on their reading - that will give you about a 15 minute reading (and I know I can get a good reading on one question in 15 minutes.) with the option to continue on with that particular reader, or choose another.

Make sure to have your questions ready before you call, and be in a quiet place when you make the call. This helps you make the absolute most of your reading, and It helps the reader if YOU are also focused. I usually recommend that you have a pen and paper ready to take notes. It's so easy to forget or mix up what your reader may have said, especially if you are excited or emotional at the time of your question.

This is just such a great deal presented by the company I read with, I had to share!

My Book of Shadows has gotten quite the workout this week.
I had a dream that I was to immerse myself back into all of it, with the kitchen as home base.
I have been burning a LOT of candles, making a LOT of soup, learning from world wide teachers, and taking many many notes. I'm finding it very very satisfying.

And feeling SO much better about everything.

All of this gets recorded in my book of shadows. There's a table of contents in the beginning, so that I can find a spell or a piece of information I'm looking for at a glance. Other than that, there's really no specific order in which I record things. One page can have info on a herb, and my experience with it, another a full moon chant that wrote that I would like to use again, another a spell I've tried and notes on it's outcome, notes of Fae or Fetches, or spirit contact.

The table of contents helps me to access what I need quickly, without worrying about keeping pages in order. Or even worrying about making everything fit. If I fill this book, I'll move on to another (just like I would do with a journal.)

The book I'm using now is a commercially bound one, but I have used hand made versions, or taken old books and upcycled them. They all will live on the same shelf, again for easy reference.

They say that keeping a book of shadows can be important to your practice of witch craft, in what ever form it takes for you. (Paganism, hedge witchery, magician, etc.) I find that so many other Little Witches get caught up in keeping it perfect. To me, it's just another way to journal, with magical attitude.

So, use up the pages. Make a mess. Love your Book of Shadows up with drawings or cut and paste, info jotted in willy nilly. Treat it with messy love, that you can refer to and grow with!

Every year I run a special on Gift Certificates, and I'm excited to announce some additions to this special!

My usual special, and I only do this once a year, is to sell an hour long tarot reading gift certificate with a regular value of $60, for only $40. In previous years, this was the only denomination I made available.

This year, I'm also offering gift certificates in your choice of denominations - whether your gift budget is $5 or $50 dollars. These 'your choice' gift certificates will be good to use against Reiki sessons in my office, Reflexology sessions in my office or home visits for people who live locally but can't make it in to the office.

They'll also be good against tarot readings (I offer 30 minute sessions for $30, as well as 45 minutes for $45) So your gift recipient can choose what length of reading they are interested in, and put the amount towards that.

But, ALSO, I'm making these gift certificates good for any of the metaphysical books or items I carry in my office, and any of the giftables I have there (this includes the sassy cross stitch in frames or hoops - those guys are so much fun!)

These gift certificates can also be used for email readings, which still stand at their prices of $9 for one question, $15 for two questions and $20 for three questions.

The only thing these certificates won't be able to be applied against is the phone readings, as I use a different system for that, and I don't do the billing for those.

If you have any questions, or would like to purchase a gift certificate for someone on your list, please feel free to use the form on my website to contact me, or my Facebook page messenger, or email.

Happy Holidays, Midland!

Springwater Tarot Horoscope for Nov 29th to Dec 13th.
 
Aries (March 21-April 19) – Justice – It's important for Aries to take a good hard look at all the evidence before deciding what is right - And that every story has two sides. Think before you speak on these sort of matters. Everyone gets what they deserve, one way or another. 
 
Taurus (April 20-May 20) – The Sun – Honesty is the best policy. Figure out how to speak your truth and practice those words before presenting them. Does it feel like truth on your tongue? Do this, and the truth, in turn, is revealed to you.   
 
Gemini (May 21-June 20) – Prince of Pentacles – Embrace the offer of commitment, stability, foundation. And know that, yes, even when you don't know all the answers or exactly where the steps are leading, that you are on the right path.  Don't allow doubts to set you astray. 

Cancer (June 21-July 22) – 2 of Wands - Pay attention to "Right time, Right place" synchronicity moments that happen during this time. Even if what comes of these situations doesn't feel like it was on your list, be aware that the Universe is trying to create balance and open some doors for you.

Leo (July 23-August 22) – Seven of Swords – Gather the FACTS, and make your lists or build your case. And, no, made up scenarios in your head do NOT count as weigh-able, measurable facts. This is a time for thinking about the challenges at hand and ahead and carefully planning how you'll present them, if need be.
 
Virgo (August 23-September 22) – The Magician – Have some feelings of uncertainty surfaced? The Magician reminds you that you have all of the tools, you've studied, and you have every right to take these skills out into the 'real' world and use them. Be confident in your skills and all that you've learned, and get started. 
 
Libra (September 23-October 22) – Strength –  Take a deep breath, and feel your inner strength. Let it be firm without being aggressive. Let it be backed by the knowledge of who you really are and all you've accomplished. Don't worry about proving it to anyone. Simply wear it easily and with confidence. This gets you through the next few weeks.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) – The Tower – If it feels like it's all falling apart, spend some time meditating on the ways this time can be used to positively set you on a path that feels even better for you. It may look like chaos now, but creation can only come after the movement of chaos. You'll land, like you always do, better than before

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) – The High Priest – Quiet reflection on how you can or do create balance in your life, between earthly pursuits and spiritual beliefs will help you to be a fair and just decision maker during this time. Remember to consider both your heart space and your head, and hold your ground gently but firmly. 

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) – 5 of Cups – It's okay to spend some time feeling remorse or mourning what you think you've lost or left behind. When you wipe your eyes and clear your head, you'll see that there's time and space for new pursuits or ways to fill that emotional space that has meaning for you.

Aquarius (January 20 to February 18) – 6 of Pentacles –  If you see an opportunity to be generous (in word, in spirit, with time or with abundance.) know that these acts are good for everyone, if they are given with the intention and energy of joy, and accepted with appreciation. Mind your energy boundaries and only give from a place of feeling good.

Pisces ( February 19 to March 20) – Ace of Wands – Energetic new beginnings are on offer, even though the year is wrapping itself up. Find a comfort zone in the speed and direction in which this time is leading you. If you stay in the flow, even when the water gets hot, you'll be on your way to letting go and getting on with it.

Leo (July 23-August 22) – Queen of Pentacles –  You will be put into the role of caretaker, and the situation will need you to be stable and consistent, as well as kind and thoughtful.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) – 9 of Wands – Your passion wants you to run at full speed, but your body may need a break. Take time to heal your physical self. All the adventure isn't going anywhere without you.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) – 8 of Pentacles –  You've got a skill that you are so well versed with, that it comes easy - and sometimes may feel boring. Find the joy in it again, and be consistent. It is completely worth the effort. 

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) – The Sun –  Let them know your truths. There is no reason to hide yourself. Those who are truly honest with themselves will also embrace your honesty. There is power and freedom in saying exactly what you mean, and being exactly who you are.

Aquarius (January 20 to February 18) – Ace of Cups – It may feel like you are feeling emotionally like you are at the beginning of a cycle again. Find the lesson and love in 'starting over'. Get into the flow, and you'll see the benefits of 'Brand New.'

Aries (March 21-April 19) – 7 of Cups – An exploration of your inner world and daydreams should have focus right now. Yes, great ideas can come from meditation, and you may be enjoying the energy of the season, but be sure to remember your earthly goals.

 

Taurus (April 20-May 20) – Karma – 3 of Swords - It's almost time to take all of the information you've been gathering about both sides of the story, to make a hard and fast decision from a place of wisdom. Remember that there is always discomfort in transformation.  

 

Gemini (May 21-June 20) – King of Pentacles – Sit firmly in your decisions and your truths. During these two weeks stay FIRM in your beliefs. Embrace being grounded, responsible in your actions, and consistent in your word. 

 

Cancer (June 21-July 22) – 6 of Wands –  It's time to celebrate your successes! All the efforts you made over the summer and into the fall should be getting you praise and victory right now. Now is a good time to take a leadership position.

 

Leo (July 23-August 22) – Prince of Swords –  A reminder that your quick wit and skillful use of words needs to be backed by solid intellectual proof. While you engage in discussion, remember that everyone can't know everything all the time - and that includes you. Do the research.

 

Virgo (August 23-September 22) – Prince of Pentacles – It would benefit you to quietly find the way in which you are romanced by your everyday life. If you can't find it, it's up to you to BE it, in your own skin. Only then, will you know the right path for you.

 

Libra (September 23-October 22) – The Sun – Honesty is the best policy, and brings you freedom and a renewed sense of energy. If having to present your honesty outside your own heart, be sure to choose your words from a place of love and clarity.

 

Scorpio (October 23-November 21) – 3 of Pentacles – It's your time to shine, and also your time to focus all your Scorpio energy on creating something you love and can lose yourself in. Spend some time on something you are really good at, and on sharpening your skills. Take pride in your work and accept compliments on what you've achieved.

 

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) – Princess of Cups – As much as you feel time creeping up on you, now is a time to remind yourself of how far you've come, what you love in your life, and what makes you feel alive. Emotions are not a weakness - make them your strength right now.

 

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) – King of Swords – Based on the facts recently presented, this is a time for you to make a decision based on intellect. Stay honest and objective, and work for the greatest good during this time.

 

Aquarius (January 20 to February 18) – 10 of Cups – Take emotional satisfaction in the simple things. Work together with those who you consider your closest family. Love is our true natural state, and it's safe to make promises from that place.




Pisces ( February 19 to March 20) – Queen of Pentacles – Concentrating now on what makes you feel stable and consistent will benefit you. Be generous and patient with yourself, but be practical. Caring for yourself and others around you, your home and hearth, helps you to feel settled and good with the world.

This event is happening on OCTOBER 14th at Brooklea Golf and Country Club - There will be psychics and healers and mediums, and although the admission is free, any donation at the door is going to YOUTH HAVEN, which is a great deal.

My friend Melissa Cabot VanLeeuwen ( Of the Almost ready to open "Wand and Cauldron" in Midland Ontario.)  will be among the readers there, and I'm so sad I'll be missing it! (Look her up when you are there, she has some serious witchy energy going on! Love her!)

I have a few clients pre booked in my office in downtown Midland ONTARIO already that day, before I had a chance to fill out the forms for this show. I'm hoping to make an appearance at Brooklea around  my own clients, as there will be fun stuff to purchase at the show, too.

What you should know before getting a psychic reading at the Spirit Show in Midland Ontario:

• Have your questions ready! The more organized you are, the more focused you will be. This will help you make the most of your reading.
• Word your question in a manner that gives the readers NO HINT about what it is that you want to read on. A good tarot reader or psychic reader won't need you to give them any hints or need you to lead them in any way! For some ideas, see this note about HOW TO WORD YOUR QUESTION WELL.
• If you are doing Medium work, and want to talk to someone who has passed over, try not to show the medium any pictures or items from your loved ones. A small ring will give them hints that gramma was a tiny woman. Pictures allow them tell if grampa was a tall man. Also, don't give them any names - it's the Mediums job to tell YOU the details! All you should have to do is hold them in your head and say to the medium "I want to connect with the person who is in my thoughts."
• Take your cell phone and know how to use the record function on it. This will save you money if the readers are selling recordings, and it gives you the option to listen to your reading and review it during a quiet meditative time, instead of during the chaos of an event!
• Ask the reader if they offer a follow up service if you need clarity on the reading they gave you, and if that's included in the price of the days reading.
• Find out what the policy is if the reading you get makes no sense to you or doesn't mean anything to you, or provides no clarity. (if you still have to pay the fee.)

Following this advice will get you your BEST reading from the reader of your choice at this psychic event in Midland On, and will help you feel satisfied that you have connected with a reader who is really tuning in your energies!

If you know you aren't going to make it to the Spirit Psychic Show at Brooklea in Midland on Oct 14, I'm available in my office in the days running up to the show, and the days after.

If you received a reading during the Psychic show at Brooklea and you need help understanding it (if the reader themselves don't offer a follow up, or you want a second opinion.) I'm open to helping you with that!

My rates for psychic readings are $30 for half an hour or $60 for one hour.
For Reiki healing sessions, I always charge on a PAY WHAT YOU CAN scale.

I also offer Reiki with Reflexology sessions as a spiritual healing addition to the physical benefits of Reflexology, at $40 for an hour+ long session.

I hope this note helps you make the most of your psychic, Medium or tarot readings on October 14th in Midland!

~The Little Witch

This year, the Coldwater Witches Walk is happening on October 17th (Wednesday Evening.)

I'll be reading tarot cards with my friend Wendy, in the Coldwater Mill! The address of the Mill is  number 1 Mill Street. The Witches Walk will take place from 6pm to 9pm, and Wendy and I will be doing short readings during that time.

It looks like Wendy has booked us up, but there's a chance that those bookings may not show up! So, we'll have some seats set up in case there are some witches who want to wait for open spots.

It'll be worth a visit to the Mill during Wednesday eve, as both Wendy and I are going to have a free draw box, for you to enter with each of us for a free tarot reading. You can also ask us for information in between seated clients.

Hundreds of Witches will touch down in Coldwater for the event, all the shops will be offering some fun things, and there will surely be keepsakes from the evening available everywhere.

People will be dressing up in their best witch clothing and costumes, and there's always some real winners when it comes to going all out with cosplay and make  up.

We're hoping the Coldwater Weather will be agreeable, but it IS October! So a few witchy layers, or heavy capes and gloves will be a welcome addition to your costume.

If you don't make it to the mill for tarot readings during the Coldwater Witches Walk, you can connect with me anytime through email, or make an appointment to meet me in person in my office in Midland Ontario, which is located conveniently downtown.

This client was generous enough to volunteer her read reading for me to record, so I could show you all what a reading looks like with me.

She offered it as she sat in my office for her scheduled appointment, so all of this is her actual live read. No script!


This was also the first time I had watched MYSELF give a psychic tarot reading! I was honestly surprised with how much I move my hands. When I'm in the depth of the reading, I see things and I'm moving things around with my hands. Swirling energy or pushing energy aside, sometimes I'm seeing the path and I make my hands walk them, etc.

What I really wanted you to notice was the process - how I ask no questions, but just talked her through her challenge. SHE knows exactly what her challenges are, but I don't have to. All I'm supposed to do is deliver the words that she needs to hear.

It's hard to see on the video, but at times I'm closing my eyes, and mostly I'm not even making eye contact with the client, as I'm looking off to her left and right, while I see the messages delivered.

This is recorded in my small office in Midland Ontario, which is near Barrie Ontario, but if you live long distance from there, you can do a phone reading with me!
