COPPER BROOM

Happy Halloween and so appropriate to highlight another broom.  Today’s creation is made of copper which is recognized for its healing properties especially with fighting infections. Copper is an antioxidant, and it improves the production of hemoglobin, myelin, collagen, melanin and the list goes on.

 

Copper is a conductor and therefore is an excellent means to transfer and amplify energy. This metal is a great choice for healers.

 

Spiritually, Copper is the metal of the body.

 

Metaphysically, copper is used for grounding. Since ancient time, Copper has been used in talismans because of its protective qualities.

 

Copper is associated with the base and sacral chakras.

BESOMS (WITCHES BROOM)

In light of the approach of Hallowe’en, we thought we would create a Witches Broom pendant.  This pendant was created in Stainless Steel.

 

We think a little history on Witches brooms is warranted.

 

Besoms or Witches Brooms have been associated with wiccan and pagan rituals since the middle ages. The word "besom" is derived from the Old English "besma," which means broom.

 

According to History.com, Anthologist, Robin Skelton, suggests the association between witches and brooms may have roots in a pagan fertility ritual, in which rural farmers would leap and dance astride poles, pitchforks or brooms in the light of the full moon to encourage the growth of their crops.

 

Ritually today, the Besom or Witches Broom is used to purify or cleanse a space.
