Sun in Taurus: When Luxury & Love Meet

Can you feel it? The Sun has moved  into sensory Taurus and it feels amazing. The Venus energy since Taurus is ruled by planet Venus, Goddess Of Love.

It’s a time to stop and smell the roses. Most of all, it’s time to take relationships to the next level.
With Sun in Taurus you’ll desire,  you’ll crave, you’ll indulge but most of all you’ll want to commit yourself in a lasting and meaningful way. Sun in Taurus is the perfect time to examine your relationship potential and see where romance is headed! 

April is the month of love! We have had a Full Moon in Libra (ruled by Venus) and a New Moon in Taurus (again, ruled by Venus). Moreover, Venus turned direct on April 15th, giving us the green light for romance, relationships, money, personal values, and beauty.

During the past six weeks, Venus asked us to have an honest look at our relationships, our possessions, our values, and check to see if they are still connected. We are now prepared to move forward in closer alignment with our true values. When Venus turned direct she was close to Chiron at 26° Pisces, opening us to the deep healing power of love.

Tri-Dosha  Aromatherapy 

Ayurveda teaches that nothing has more power to heal and transform the body than the mind. 

Our sense of smell is directly connected to our mind’s state of being, and we powerfully impact our mind through scents that we breathe. Healing #aromatherapy can be experienced while breathing therapeutic scents, as well as during massage, vaporization, and bathing. 

When we combine the experience of a meditative breath or controlled breathing, long and deep, with Aromatherapy, we enhance emotional  balance and it induces soothing feelings of #relaxation

Stand Up For Yourself Gracefully 

Intuition is knowing when to say no, and when you can move your limits.

Learn to feel it in your body – are there any situations where your body tells you to stand up for yourself more? Doing it all with grace will make it feel so much better. You probably do this already, but getting aware of the process can make it all feel more meaningful.

Intuition. The Art of I Just Know It. 

Intuition is so much more than premonitions and the future. Intuition is knowing what is right and what is wrong. Intuition is living in harmony with our spirits and the larger force of life. Intuition is listening. Deep.

Living intuitively is the answer to the invisible questions, What is my purpose? Why am I here?  Learning to trust your intuition can transform your life. Suddenly you’re living with the stream, not against it. Your able to connect more closely to others because you are connecting with yourself. 

Being connected to yourself is the solution. It will be beneficial living in harmony with nature. What is good for you is good for the earth, the animals, the plants and everyone around you. There’s no doubt about it.  Your deep connection with yourself will have a ripple effect that will change the world.

Goddess Eostre  

We discover more about this ancient spring festival, the origins of Eostre and what Easter really means. Although the Christian festival of Easter celebrates the death and resurrection of Jesus and has links to the Jewish Passover, most people, including Christians, unknowingly celebrate its pagan influences, including the bunny, a symbol of fertility, and colored eggs, representing the sunlight of spring.
In the 8th century, Christian scholar Bede claimed in his book, De temporum ratione, (The Reckoning of Time) that Easter derived from the Saxon Eostre (a.k.a. Eastre). The ancient Saxons in Northern Europe worshiped the Goddess Oestre at the time of the Spring Equinox. The Goddess Easter represents the sunrise, spring-time and fertility, the renewal of life.
Pagan Anglo-Saxons made offerings of colored eggs to her at the Vernal Equinox. They placed them at graves as a charm of rebirth. (Egyptians and Greeks were also known to place eggs at gravesites).
All the fun things about Easter are thought to be pagan. Bunnies are a leftover from the pagan festival of Oestre. Exchange of eggs is an ancient custom, celebrated by many cultures. Hot cross buns are very ancient too. In the Old Testament we see the Israelites baking sweet buns for an idol, and religious leaders trying to put a stop to it. The early church clergy also tried to put a stop to sacred cakes being baked at Easter. In the end, in the face of defiant cake-baking pagan women, they gave up and blessed the cake instead. Today the pagans of Easter celebrate with an atmosphere of giving and happiness, a renewal of life. 

No matter how you celebrate may you celebrate in good health, happiness and life.

Pesach- Chag Sameach

The Jewish festival of Passover – or Pesach as it’s also known – lasts for a total of eight days.
It marks the freeing of the slaves by Moses and each year, it’s celebrated by feasts, readings and family time together – plus a whole lot of unleavened bread (all types of grain are off the table during Passover.)

Passover began on the evening of April 10 and lasts for eight days until the evening of Tuesday April 18. As for people who celebrate Easter and Passover get to experience another double over lap of celebrating, this happened last Christmas as Chanukah fell within the same exact time. 

The final two days of Passover celebrate the Red Sea miracle and the liberation of the Israelites.


To Easter and Passover- Chag  Sameach!

How did the Easter Bunny and eggs come to be?

According to some sources, the Easter bunny first arrived in America in the 1700s with German immigrants who settled in Pennsylvania and transported their tradition of an egg-laying hare called “Osterhase” or “Oschter Haws.” Their children made nests in which this creature could lay its colored eggs.  

The custom of giving eggs at Easter celebrates new life. Christians remember that Jesus, after dying on the cross, rose from the dead. This miracle showed that life could win over death. 

The introduction of chocolate eggs is a relatively new phenomenon, originating in France and Germany in the 19th century. And as chocolate production became more sophisticated, the Easter festival, like Christmas, became more marketable. 

Nowadays Easter is a big deal commercially – retailers and manufacturers love to get in on the holiday and persuade us to part with our cash by buying Easter eggs, cards and anything bunnies! 

We love it!

Vegan Easter Treats 


Vegan Easter Cakes that are totally Easter Bunny approved. Chocolate, Mud Pie Mini Cakes. They are plant-based, dairy-free, egg-free, and  gluten-free too.

The bunny rabbit is absolutely in love with the combination of the fudgey chocolate cake with the silky chocolate pudding and cacao nibs as toppings. The base is our favourite chocolate cake recipe – it resembles the fudgey texture of a flourless chocolate cake and makes the perfect foundation for other delicious layers like…chocolate pudding: a silky,  rich, chocolatey chocolate pudding made with dark chocolate and creamy cashew milk…and coconut cream: light, fluffy,  sweet whipped cream in a shape of a rabbit to balance out the richness of the rest of the mini pie.
