Essential Pleasures Inc is Open for buisness

Essential Pleasure Inc. is open and up and running.
Even though the weather has been cold and the snow is falling our shop has been busy with not only on lookers but buyers as well.
We are still in transition selling the last owners stuff as well as our own but we are making our own brands of soap, both natural and magical along with some other goodies on the metaphysical side. Herbs, oils and other natural substances have a long history of use in magick. Their natural energies have been experimented with for so many centuries that those who practice magickal art know almost intuitively what plants correspond best with energies of what magickal need. Always remember that the magick is not in the herb or the scent of the oil but in you, as you set your intention for it to be so. The herb acts as the catalyst to help you focus your energy and because it contains sympathetic energy, it helps you to channel that energy toward it's goal. In some cases the scent of the herb is alone, all that is needed and will provide the trigger for the magick. In our culture it is referred to as Aromatherapy. Aroma magick is created each time you use a particular scent or scent blend for a spell. For instance lavender promotes relaxation and calmness, jasmine is seductive, lemon is invigorating and so on. This is the basis for some really strong magick. The slightest whiff of sandalwood oil mentally transports me back to my earliest times of magick. As a whole we don't even realize that it is magickal if our mindset is not that of being magickal. People all over the world create magick everyday and don't realize the connection. Aromatherapy has proven it self as a very powerful tool and brings about natural healing through the senses aligning you with the universe to be in the flow. When we are in tune with our higher selves we are happy and heal.
You all know that I do healing Chakra meditations, well we are developing a soap for that purpose. It helps you to align your chakras. This soap will stimulate, open, cleanse and balance the chakras from root to crown.
So in moving towards that direction we are working on magickal soaps, bath salts, lotions, shampoos, hair conditioners, scrubs and soaks to mention a few.
We are looking forward to all our new productions and getting things under way. . .
till next time

Happy New 2009

Happy New Year "2009"
I bring to you happy wishes and tidings of joy for the new year of 2009.
A little update on what we can expect this year from a spiritual standpoint. 2009 will be a time of great change in the universe. There will be a birthing, per say, in the shifts of consciousness from the old beliefs into the new vibrations coming into our reality. Beginning in March through June, many will move to accommodate their shift in vibration to places with a vibrational match. People will migrate to places where the vortexes are opening and drawing them closer to those geographical areas to cause a unity in vibration and pulling people together in order to increase those needed vibrations for healing and transition. For some, it is a time of going home as their work here has ended, their karma healed and they choose to go home. For many the shift is causing physical signs as well. An overall not feeling well, almost like morning sickness, upset stomach, headaches, nausea, being tired, low motivation making you want to just sleep. Know that this is in accordance to the earths alignment and repair of itself. People who have been living in isolation will move or be moved where there vibrations are crucial to the combined effort towards this concentrated vibration and then there lives will move more smoothly, they will be happy and in tune with life when they are relocated and they will struggle less to overcome daily anxieties. So the message here is to go with the flow, allow it to take you where you need to be. This is an 11 vibrational year, which has not happened since 1901 & then again in 1910, so the last 100 years have been out of vibration and now is the time to move forward full circle and enjoy all the healing and burning off of karma. We are no longer in the Christ Martyr experience and it is time to move into the Christ Victorious era where the earth and all of it's inhabitants will share in the victory and vibration of all our hard work as lighworkers as the Polarity is now completed. We move from being Lightworkers as we have successfully healed and processed the energies and will soon move to being the Lightbearers. Knowing that we are the light, the beacons that shall light the way for all to come and finally heal or leave the planet. The lower energies are being squeezed out, the birthing of light, they will either have to transcend or go home. This squeezing will be a painful process as so many of us have already been through it and as we come into our power the elements of past, present, future will start to melt away and we will be in the now, continuum, when the third dimension will start to blend and the energies will begin to show through. The calendar year will start to feel as though they are passing very fast but your reality will actually begin to slow down as you start to see your manifestations come into form. This is a time when you must focus your energies on what you truly want as they will start to appear at a rapid pace and if you have wasted your time on focusing on the things in your life that you did not want, you will see them in your life as more chaos, thus wasting your precious time in manifesting more of what you don't want in your life. It's time to raise your vibration, live in the knowing that you are a being of light and are capable of being happy and that you have everything you have asked for. Live in the moment, the now and allow yourself to dream big because it's coming to you now as you read this blog. Lift yourself up from the dogma of what you have always thought was reality and come into the light where you are with God and the Goddess and take responsibility for your God given rights and powers.
If you are confused with my rambling today, please go to Uriel Heals and read Jennifers newsletters so that you are more clear of what I am talking about.
God be with you, Happy New Year

Together under one roof, which used to be known as Pine Street Curiosities in Historic Burlington Wisconsin. We are excited about our new venture and look forward to many years together in this establishment meeting and making new friends with like interests. There exists a spiritual overflow that has brought us all together to work and learn from each other in this special place across the street from the Scifi Cafe, where the Sutherland's teach people about the vortexes and spirits that guide us along through our lives and go, mostly unnoticed by the humans they encounter.
Here's a sneek peek at the inside of our shop. We are still in transition of moving the other propritor out and us in but we'll be there to greet you when you arrive.
Happy New Year to all of you, hope to see you there. . .My wish for you. .

May all your dreams come into full manifestation in 2009

Essential Pleasure Inc. in historic Burlington, WI

In the midst of the Christmas holiday season our dreams have come into full fruition. It looks like our manifesting for a shop, with an awning over the door has now been located in historic Burlington, WI. Wow, I just can not even tell you of the excitement I have on this day, to see the pictures of this shop and know that the miracle of manifestation has come into reality.
Vicki and I have been manifesting for this shop for almost a year. The picture I drew sits on my desk and I look at it everyday. . . Now I am able to look at it in full manifested form and what a magnificent feeling it is. This came about through a wonderful entity called Tamara. She worked as a store clerk in a shop in Antioch, Il. where Vicki sells her soaps and body products. She always wanted a place of her own, as so many of us do, and now the three of us together, will realize our dream. And what a perfect place. It is located at 557 N. Pine St. in historic Burlington, WI. Tamara mixes essential oils and makes her own brand of soap also. So our shop will be a mixture of talents. We are so excited and so blessed to have found each other with this opportunity of bringing our talents together. I can not even tell you what this means to us.
Getting to our shop, it will be a mixture of metaphysical supplies, essential oils and aromatherapy, natural soaps and body products, home goods, antiques, primitive art, candles, room sprays, diffusers and list goes on. There will be something for everyone and maybe even a few consignments like horse hair pottery from a local potter and art from some local artists. What ever we come across will be a real pleasure and total adventure in the making.
A tidbit from Tarot.com address analyzer:

Address: 557
This is a number 8 address.

This address inspires stability, ambition, financial growth, authority and uncompromising drive. This is the ideal location for a single adult or a family with material comfort as a high priority. Status quo and conventional lifestyles. The 8 also inspires strength of character and tends to improve the health of those who live there (strengthens the body). The best possible address for career or business oriented people. Also good for large families.

Strengthen the positive influence of this address with: Strong colors, especially greens and browns. Big furniture; big couches, chairs, side tables, etc. Large windows, open spaces, fire place.

So I will leave you today with the thought of "what are you manifesting in your life lately?" The holidays bring us to the close of one year and into the next chapter of our lives. The year 2009 is to be a transition point for all of us ~ I pray that you all find what you have been searching for. . .
until next time, God bless you,
with love and light. . .
