🌾✨ Blessed Lughnasadh ✨🌾

Today we welcome the First Harvest—a sacred moment to slow down, breathe deeply, and give thanks.

Before rushing toward the next season, take a moment to honor all that has grown in your life. The goals you've reached. The lessons you've learned. The love you've shared. Even the quiet victories that no one else has seen.

May this be a day of gratitude for the harvest within and around you.

To celebrate this beautiful sabbat, we've handcrafted our Golden Harvest Blend, a comforting infusion of sage, lemon balm, chamomile, oatstraw, rose hips, cinnamon, orange, and ginger—a warm cup inspired by the abundance of late summer.

As your tea steeps, close your eyes, breathe in its comforting aroma, and offer this blessing:

As I sip this golden brew,
I honor the harvest within and around me.
I welcome abundance, clarity, and peace.
I am grounded in the wisdom of the earth and open to the blessings of the sun.
Blessed Be.

May your heart be grateful.

🌻 Happy Lughnasadh. Blessed Be. 🌻

📚✨ **Bones & Botanicals Book Club** ✨📚

Join us for our next enchanting Book Club as we gather to discuss ***Magic Lessons*** by **Alice Hoffman**, the beloved author of *Practical Magic*.

🖤 **Wednesday, August 19th**
🕯️ **6:00 PM – 8:00 PM**

*Magic Lessons* is the captivating first novel in the *Practical Magic* series, transporting readers to 1600s England and following the unforgettable story of Maria Owens—the woman whose life, loves, and heartbreak would forever shape the Owens family and the famous curse that echoes through generations.

With ***Practical Magic 2*** arriving in theaters this September, there's no better time to journey back to where the magic began.

Whether you're a lifelong fan of the Owens family or discovering their story for the first time, we'd love to have you join us for an evening of lively discussion, cozy drinks, and kindred spirits.

✨ This is a **free, non-ticketed event**, and our counter will be open with handcrafted teas, cocktails, mocktails, and treats available for purchase throughout the evening.

Please let us know if you plan to attend so we can prepare enough seating for everyone.

Happy reading, and we'll see you around the table! 🌙📖🫖

🌕🦌✨ The Buck Moon is here ✨🦌🌕

Tonight, we welcome the Buck Moon, a powerful time to pause, reflect, and release.

The full moon reminds us that growth isn't only about what we bring into our lives—sometimes, it's about what we finally allow ourselves to let go of.

Like the buck shedding its old antlers to make way for new growth, we too can release the things that have become too heavy to carry. Old patterns. Limiting beliefs. Fear. Resentment. Relationships or habits that no longer align with who we are becoming.

As you pour yourself a cup of our Moon Milk Tea, let it become a small ritual of release. Our dreamy blend of lavender, chamomile, rose, butterfly pea flower, and cinnamon is made for quiet moments of reflection, intention, and a little everyday magic. 🌿🌙

Take a breath.
Sip slowly.
Let go gently.

✨ What are you releasing this Full Moon? ✨

Leave it in the comments, write it down, whisper it to the moon—or simply let it go.

🌕 Blessed Full Moon, witches. May you release what no longer serves you and make room for all that is waiting to bloom. 🌿✨

📚✨ Bones & Botanicals Book Club ✨📚

Join us THIS Wednesday, July 29th from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at our new home, 174 Center Street, for an evening of books, brews, and spirited conversation as we discuss Such Sharp Teeth by Rachel Harrison.

A darkly funny and surprisingly heartfelt tale, Such Sharp Teeth follows Rory Morris as a chance encounter under the light of the moon leaves her grappling with strange new instincts, sharp new teeth, and the beast lurking beneath the surface. Part horror, part romance, and part exploration of what it means to embrace the wild parts of ourselves, this modern werewolf story is equal parts fierce, funny, and unforgettable.

Gather around the cauldron with fellow readers for a relaxed discussion, warm company, and a little literary magic.

This is a non-ticketed event, and our counter will be open for tea, cocktails, mocktails, and treats throughout the evening.

🌙 Please let us know if you plan on attending so we can prepare enough seating for everyone.

We hope to see you there.

Happy Reading! 🖤📖

Darlings… our first secret door code is officially lurking in the wild.

We hid it inside a clip from "The Octopus", because nothing says welcome to Bones & Botanicals quite like a witch with a pet octopus, a taste for terror, and apparently… a firearm.

The movie is 100% original. The clip? We built it ourselves with our own creepy little hands. But purely out of spite, we did ask AI to choose a four-digit number for the door code. Those that know, know.

Find the number. Punch it in. Then don’t forget the final little kiss of doom: 💋 # 💋

No pound sign, no entrance.

Happy hunting
