Path with Many Branches

I have been on my path for many, many moons, and throughout that time, I have studied many different pagan beliefs.  I do NOT and I can promise I WOULD NEVER follow just one thing. All of my life, I have been like a sponge wanting to learn everything I could. Have I paid for it down the road, oh hell yes I have! Have I changed anything? Hell No!   People will always fear what they do not understand.  If they do not have the courage to read and study about beliefs.. so fucking be it. Not my problem. I live my life for me, I am the one who will walk the last mile of my journey alone.. so what damn difference does it make to anyone how I decide to live my life?

I have many different kinds of friends,,all individuals, all unique, all their own person. Do they live by socially rules? Maybe sometimes, maybe not.. its their business.  That is the thing, most people cannot get into their minds.... each of use are different, many of us will never be a little sheep, following others to fit in. Who gives a shit?  I remember in school, all of the girly girls wanted to sit around so they wouldn't get their clothes dirty, while others didn't care. If that is how the girls wanted to be... so what? (Oh, in case you are wondering.. I was not one of those little girl!!)

In the past two weeks, I have had a ton of reality issues slap me in the face, and guess what.. that is not fun. Will I get through it, yeah, the best way I can. Will it change me... in some ways yes, it has-not so much changed as my eyes have been open to a lot things, things I believe I have chosen not to see. But I will not change a damn thing about myself to suit anyone, group, opinions or situation.

Now I will step off of my soap box, and share a few things I have going on at my shop this weekend.  I have a lot of different items that fits 'Most' paths, not all.  At the moment I am trying to stock my hoodoo section.  This week I will be adding Spikenard Cologne, this Jackpot Money Spray, A few more Hem Air Fresheners... I am adding several new herbs, I have made Yemaya Powders, charged for Fertility. Really.. there is just things being added each week. 

For all of you that visit the shop Blessed Solstice!! I hope you have a beautiful weekend.  I hope I am on your list to come visit me... until than.. Sending all of you many hugs!!!

For those who do not live near me, I do have an eCrater store:  WhiteOak Art Designs & More  I do not a fraction of what my store has but if you are looking for something not listed on the site, I am sure I carry it.  Hopefully, I will have my site updated one of these days (laughs).

Blessed Be,
WhiteOak

It has been way to long!

Hello World!  Remember me from a zillion years ago, when I use to blog all of the time? Good grief where do I even begin to start telling you about all of the changes in my life since I last spoken to any of you!

Well, as you can see, I do not write a fraction of what I use to, I do not do as much photography or art, wow I do not even do YouTube videos anymore (although I am thinking about starting that again). *Laughs* okay, but that does not mean I just sit on my ass and do nothing these days!

I actually have a wonderful little store that holds my heart and soul. It is only open to days a week, yet I work seven days a week on it?  WHAT?  Yeah, I am always doing things to my shop. So let me tell you a little or a lot about it.

I used to have a shop years ago at J&J Flea Market called "EarthCrafts" but I closed it and went through a HUGE life change.  In 2014 I lost my husband to Cancer, and stayed a year in limbo, went to therapy and finally started to get my shit together in 2016. 

In April of 2017 I opened a new store back at J&J Flea Market except this time it is a dream come true! I have the kind of store I have always wanted and could not have ever gotten it to the point where it is without my guy David!

WhiteOak Art Designs & More is the name of it, It is a Goth/Spiritual Store. I sell everything from skulls to herbs.. hoodoo to angels... It is actually my heart and soul.  I have met some of the most fantastic people, customers who are now friends. I have a wonderful Tarot Reader his name is Steven.  I will write a blog post telling you the story of how Steven and his partner James have become such a huge part of the store... James often shares it with the customers. 

Let me share a few links with you:  WhiteOak Art Designs & More on Google,  I still have my eCrater Store online, trying to get it updated but not enough hours in a day sometimes.  Plus I have another online store called Ethereal it is a complete new line of body care. This is my business Facebook Page.  And this is Steven's Facebook page. 

Just to show you a few pictures:

So that is a tease of a few things I have in the store. I believe I will write my next blog post focusing on the Hoodoo items I have for sale.   Until next world... please leave a comment, or drop by if you are local or traveling through.. If you click on the Google Page, you can get directions to the shop no matter where you are.
