Booking for next week! Wednesday is still fully open. Saturday is full.

Luna enters Scorpio today and brings us into an intense few days. This is a deep, private, emotionally charged transit that can draw buried feelings, unresolved patterns, and difficult truths closer to the surface. It's important to note this moon right now since it is in the sign of the potency influencing so much drama in our lives right now.

Late Sunday night, the Scorpio Moon conjoins (meets up with) retrograde Venus in Scorpio and squares Mars in high & mighty Leo. This can heighten desire, jealousy, defensiveness, pride, frustration, and sensitivity around relationships, pleasure, value, and self-expression. Feelings may run strong, but strong feelings do not always require immediate action. Try to let yourself back TF up for a moment before blowing your top and getting glitter everywhere.

This is usually always a powerful time for honest reflection, shadow work, emotional processing, divination, and recognizing what has been operating beneath the surface - but like, RIGHT NOW, it's being extra and worth paying attention to.
The Scorpio moon might have you thinking you need to control every aspect - but you are only gonna find yourself struggling for air. What good can you really do when you can't even breathe???? Come on, y'all.

Come see Brycee at Obsidian & Sage for your astrology questions, chart insight, and support your duty to understand the patterns moving through your life.

It's getting cooler and you're beginning to crave the warm and cozies.
I've got them!
Instead of flowery or herbal tea this season, try something savory with Savory Superfood Broths! My favorite, that being the one I carry the most of, is the Fireball Basil which is a blend of cinnamon and holy basil that tastes good as a sipping broth, but I like to season my noodle bowls with it. Makes my cooking job moo much easier when I want something really flavorful without busting out every herb and spice in my apartment.

Did I say too much?
I return again Wednesday at 12p.
See ya then.

When you come in asking if I have an herb for something, you are probably going to get met with a face like this. It's not an angry face, I promise you. I'm a heavy thinker - that's why I'm so good at this...

It is easy to approach holistic wellness the way we were taught to approach pharmaceutical medicine: name the condition, find the product associated with it, take the product, and expect a predictable result.

Herbalism does not work the same way. The name of a condition gives us a starting point, but it does not tell us the whole story. Before choosing an herb, we need to ask more about the quality of the symptoms. Is the discomfort sharp, dull, burning, heavy, cramping, dry, damp, hot, cold, restless, or draining? When did it begin? What makes it better or worse? What else is happening in the body?

We also need to look at the patterns around it. How are you sleeping? What are you eating and drinking? How much stress are you carrying? Are you moving your body, getting enough nourishment, or relying on stimulants to get through the day? Sometimes lifestyle choices are actively triggering or maintaining the pattern we are trying to shift.

It sounds like a lot of questions, yes. Because Holistic wellness means we consider the WHOLE of your individual situation because there are A LOT of options to choose from. And, yes - it can be a lot to unpack. I'm here to help you do that one question at a time so we can find the solution that works really well for YOU - not the band-aid that works maybe a little bit for a good chunk of everyone. Totally different kind of magic. 🖤🖤🖤

Here till 6pm today and out for the day tomorrow, Saturday 10.10. You will find me at 's Yarn Barn in Rock Island, IL from 10a-4p.

Down to the last 2 packs of my Liverated drink mix. This blend, as well as my take on the more traditional Golden Latte, are perfect blends to get with while our bodies begin to adjust to shorter days, cooler temperatures and busier schedules.

I'm here till 6pm today taking walk-ins and answering your herbal and wellness questions. See ya here!

One of the best things about Algae Club algae cooking oil is how neutral it tastes. It doesn’t get in the way of the other ingredients, which makes it ideal for homemade dressings, mayo, ranch, and anything else you want to taste fresh instead of oily. The omega fats in algae oil are a nice bonus too, especially the unsaturated fats that make it a smart everyday cooking oil without changing the flavor of your food- plus its a vegan-friendly plant based oil that isn't a seed oil!
I use it in my homemade Ranch Dressing:
1 egg yolk, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 2 garlic cloves, 1 tsp each fresh chopped shallot, chives, thyme, and dill, 1 tbsp buttermilk, 1 tsp lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and 1/2 cup Algae Club cooking oil.
Blend with an immersion blender until thick and creamy, then adjust the seasoning to taste and serve.
As for the algae cooking oil, I have it in stock for you at my counter inside Obsidian & Sage in Moline, IL because you know my cheffy side has gotta have and share only the best ingredients with you!
Stop by and get yours! 🖤
Shop hours are Wednesday through Friday, 11am to 6pm, and Saturday, 10am to 5pm.
