Signs of Spring

Merry Meet again - We have three new installments of Confessions of a Try Hard Pagan just uploaded. In the May installment Twisted Willow focuses on the beauty aspects of the Beltane season in Beauty & Sunshine "On Beltane morning, before going to school, I slipped out into the garden to wash my face in the morning dew – although I think my pores and wrinkles are beyond help and no amount of magic is likely to make any difference!".

In the June installment TW shares with us some golden moments from her wedding day in All Was Golden In The Sky... "I am now officially Nicky’s wife! Woo-hoo! Mind you, I don’t think the enormity of what we’ve done has quite hit us as yet.." Congrats to TW & Nicky from all of us on the Realm, may you have a lifetime of love, laughter and happiness.

Finally in the July Installment TW shares her experiences taking a bunch of year 10's camping in The Happy Wanderers "It soon became apparent who helped out in the kitchen at home and who didn’t – one group had no idea that pasta expanded whilst cooking, and got quite a shock when their meal for five turned into a meal for about ten."

Take a look at 'Moonshadows Wood' it's in its infancy, but lots more information is planned for the future. It currently contains a page with information on the properties of some of our native UK woods and a basic guide to their identification and magical properties "Properties Of Wood". Ygraine has written a wonderful article for us "A Beginner's Guide to Wand and Staff Making". The "Making A Wand" article has been updated and now contains a recipe for a wand dedication incense. More pages will be added over the coming months, let us know if there is something you'd like to see or contirbute?

Important Shop News - As a customer and also a retailer I've witnessed both sides of the current financially lean times, and I fully realise that people are doing all they can to make their money go further. Here at Moonshadows we try to keep our prices as low as possible, so lowering prices isn't an option. We have a free gift when you spend over £10 details of our latest offers can be found on the Moonshadows Realm Shop

Important News For Existing Moonshadows Shop Customers -  If you haven't logged in to your shop account since February 2008 you may have encountered a problem when trying to log in to your old shop account? This problem was caused earlier in the year when our server stopped supporting php4 which was the 'language' the old shop worked in, and switched to php5. Our database would no longer work and no products or old customer accounts could be viewed. To remedy the problem, simply create a new account to shop with us. This is regretable and we hope it isn't too much of an inconvienience.

Those of you that haven't visited the shop in a while, may be interested to know that all our herb prices have dropped by 10%! You can compare some examples of old and new prices for yourself in the product image over in the herb section, but that only tells you the 10g saving, our price breaks have also changed, which means just as before, the more you buy the more you save! Further information can be found over in the herb section in the Announcement we placed there.
