Greetings Sabbat Box Members, 

Well, we must say, it is hard to believe that we have come full circle here with Sabbat Box. That's right, we have just celebrated our 1 year anniversary since starting Sabbat Box and we just completed our first trip around the wheel of the year together with you all. What a journey it has been thus far! It has been amazing to connect with so many different customers, members, vendors and artists from around the country in order to make Sabbat Box the success it has become. We wanted to thank everyone for their continued business and for allowing Sabbat Box to help further inspire your magickal practices. 

With Ostara on the horizon, we start to celebrate the season of returning light and emerging life. Nature has awaken in the Northern Hemisphere and is ready to burst forth into the magick of Spring. Ostara, which is also known as the Spring Equinox is a Sabbat in which marks a time to work magick pertaining to fertility, growth, balance, rebirth, renewal and love. The items featured within this most recent Sabbat Box will surely allow one to connect with Ostara and manifest renewal and growth into their lives.

• OSTARA-RITUALS, RECIPES & LORE FOR THE SPRING EQUINOX •


Ostara Rituals Recipes and Lore for the Spring Equinox By Kerri Connor

• ITEM 1: OSTARA BOOK.........$11.99
• WHAT:
 Ostara-Rituals, Recipes and Lore for the Spring Equinox (part of Llewellyn's Sabbat Essentials series) 
• WHO MAKES IT?: 
Llewellyn Worldwide & Authored By Kerri Connor
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?: Via the Sabbat Box Store or via Llewellyn.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: Llewellyn has been a trusted source for books on Paganism, Magick and New Age topics since 1901. This particular book features spells, recipes, lore, invocations, correspondences, crafts and rituals that will help to inspire you to celebrate Ostara in your own unique way.

BREAKDOWN:
Part of what we wish to do here at Sabbat Box is to provide further resources for our members pertaining to paganism, witchcraft and the Sabbats. The Sabbat Essentials series are wonderful resource books and will truly help you find inspiration on how to celebrate the Sabbat in your own special way. Some may say that these books are geared more towards those new to the craft, but you would be surprised to read how much information is packed within these books, which is helpful for both seasoned practitioners as well as a novice! We decided to feature Llewellyn's Sabbat Essentials books when we started Sabbat Box, as this line of books is brand new to Llewellyn, (making most of them first edition prints) and they correlate perfectly with what Sabbat Box is all about. In fact, these first edition printings come out only a few weeks before we ship each Sabbat Box, which makes our members some of the first people to actually own and read them.

The author of Ostara, Kerri Connor, has written quite a few Pagan books as well as  reference and how to books regarding witchcraft. She is also a contributor to several of Llewellyn’s Almanacs.
 
An excerpt from Ostara—A Brief Invocation for Working with the Goddess on Ostara:

Maiden Goddess, soon to be Mother, known by many names,
I invoke your presence today, on this day of balance,
of equal day and equal night,
on this day of beginnings,
to join with me in celebration.
Goddess of the Earth, Goddess of all Living Things, Goddess of the Spring,
join with me now.

—Pg.145, Ostara: Rituals, Recipes and Lore for The Spring Equinox

• NATURE GODDESS STATUARY & CANDLE HOLDER •


Nature Goddess Statue Wiccan Earth Goddess Statue - Sabbat Box

• ITEM 2: STATUARY.......$24.95
• WHAT:
 Earth Deity Goddess Statue with Tealight Candle Holder — 7 1/4” tall
• WHO MAKES IT?: Via Eclectic Artisans
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?: The Sabbat Box Store or Eclectic Artisans.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: Imagery and symbolism plays an important role in most spiritual practice; this is especially true within Wicca, as well as both modern and ancient Paganism. One of the most notable and revered symbols adopted from our Pagan ancestors is the image of the divine feminine—also known as “The Goddess”—representing the very essence of life, wisdom, fertility, femininity, womanhood, mystery and love.

BREAKDOWN
This particular nature Goddess statuary both embodies those fertile feminine characteristics but also portrays the archetypal references to the spring season. She is covered with flowers, leaves, and greenery, as well as spring animals. Her hands hold a vessel-shaped “cauldron” fit for a tea light candle—representative of the coming light of the sun, which in balance with nature brings forth life. This statue can sit on an altar to honor the divine feminine and draw in the energies of abundance, fertility, renewal, prosperity, nature, and divinity. There is representation of both the feminine and masculine included as well. The tea light may act as the sun and the statuary is the Goddess, and together life emerges and manifests. 

• HAND POURED PURE BEESWAX EGG SPELL CANDLES •


Hand Poured Beeswax Egg Candles - Ostara Egg Spell Candles - Sabbat Box

• ITEM 3: EGG CANDLE.........$4.95
• WHAT: Hand Poured 10 Hour Beeswax Egg Candle
• WHO MAKES IT?: Sunbeam Candles
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?: From Sunbeam Candles or via the Sabbat Box Store.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: When working magick, performing ritual or just simply decorating an altar, many Pagans will utilize symbols as well as various types of imagery to represent or convey a special meaning or purpose. Take the egg, for example: it contains various correspondences and can be used to symbolize renewal, growth, emergence, fertility, life, and femininity as well as a connection to the very energies of spring itself.

BREAKDOWN
Each egg candle is made with 100% pure beeswax and will burn for 10+ hours. Sunbeam Candles, based out of Ithaca, New York, is a green sustainable business that is completely run on solar and wind power. They have been making high quality, eco-friendly candles since 2004. These particular egg candles can be used in conjunction with Ostara rituals, fertility rituals or in conjunction with candle magick to manifest the symbolic corresponding properties of the egg itself. Sunbeam Candles pays its employees a living wage and offers top notch candles at affordable prices. 

• LAVENDER AND WHITE SAGE SMUDGE STICK •


Lavender and White Sage Smudge Stick

• ITEM 4: SPRING SMUDGE STICK.........$3.95
• WHAT: 
Lavender and White Sage Sacred Smudge Stick, 4 inch
• WHO MAKES IT?:
Mother Nature
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?:
 Most metaphysical shops, or the Sabbat Box Store.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?
Within each Sabbat Box we do our best to include an entire spectrum of different items that will enhance spiritual practice. One of our members’ favorite items are the various ritual and spell supplies we include, like sage. We think this lavender and white sage, hand bound together, fits perfectly with the height of spring. Lavender has many correspondences and representations, including healing, love, happiness and purification. Burned in combination with that universal herb of cleansing and purification, this will add another level of energy to all your practices and rites.

BREAKDOWN
This white sage and lavender smudge stick is the perfect way to clear and cleanse sacred space or infuse the air with a fragrant, floral scent. Coupling lavender flowers--corresponding with love, happiness, and new growth--with the traditional cleansing energy of white sage creates a life-affirming atmosphere for your altar and magickal practice. White sage and lavender smudge sticks are also great for those who are looking for something a little different than just sage by itself.

How to burn a smudge stick: 
• Fetch a small fireproof bowl, cauldron or incense vessel. 
• Place your smudge stick next to a burning flame (a lighter or candle will do).
• Allow the smudge stick to catch fire and burn at the end for a few seconds.
• Once the wood has caught fire and is starting to emit smoke, extinguish the fire.
• After extinguished, you will want to keep the smudge stick atop a bowl or ash catcher to catch the smoldered embers and to prevent fire. Use the emitting smoke to smudge your space.

• PROSPERITY RITUAL POWEDERS •


Prosperity Ritual Powders - Sabbat Box

• ITEM 5: RITUAL POWDER.........$3.95
• WHAT IS IT: The Sacred Well Prosperity Ritual Powders.
• WHO MAKES IT?: The Sacred Well, via Devera Gifts
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?: The Sabbat Box Store.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: Ritual powders are quite versatile and have many uses. Each vial is handy to have in a pinch, and perfect for any witch.

BREAKDOWN:

Since Ostara marks a time of rebirth, renewal, emergence, balance, and—most importantly—growth, we decided to include a vial of Prosperity Ritual Powders by The Sacred Well within the Ostara Sabbat Box. Prosperity ritual powders will surely help one to harness the energies of the Sabbat to help one manifest prosperity. Each vial contains a handcrafted blend of potent proprietary herbs and essential oils that will help you release your magickal intent. Ritual powders are an extremely versatile magickal tool and can be used in many different ways. The Sacred Well has been serving the Pagan community since 2007 and offers an array of unique magical supplies.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO USE PROSPERITY POWDERS:
• Dress spell candles with powders
• Burn powders on a charcoal disk as incense
• Add to a mojo bag or gris gris bag
• Use as a house sprinkle
• Place within an offering bowl
• Use as an offering to the divine
• Place within a poppet 


• HEM PRECIOUS PATCHOULI CONE INCENSE •


HEM Precious Patchouli Cone Incense - Sabbat Box

• ITEM 6: INCENSE.........$2.00
• WHAT IS IT?: 
Precious Patchouli Cone Incense—10 pack
• WHO MAKES IT?: HEM
• WHERE CAN I GET IT?: You can purchase at the Sabbat Box Store.
• WHY WOULD I WANT IT?: Patchouli is a highly sought after plant for its corresponding properties of prosperity, love, money, luck and sexuality


BREAKDOWN:
High quality incense is something every witch or magickal practitioner should keep on hand at all times. That includes an array of various incense with different aromas and magickal intent. Patchouli corresponds well with the spring equinox and the energies of Ostara; it is said to correspond to prosperity, money, fertility, success, and lust. That, along with its rich earthy scent, make these cones the perfect incense to burning while working prosperity magick or spellwork pertaining to love, abundance, fertility, and friendship.

• SABBAT BOX SAVINGS & COUPONS •


Sabbat Box Subscription Box for Pagans Wiccans and Witches - Metaphysical Supplies

SAVINGS & COUPONS:
Part of our goal is to provide a number of items to our members at a value far above what individuals can purchase on their own. When you add up all of the items inside your Ostara Sabbat Box, as well as costs for shipping and packaging, you are saving over $19.00. We believe this to be another good reason to be a member. Also, each box we create helps to support Pagan run businesses and their employees. Sabbat Box looks forward to continuing to stay within our mission to work with other Pagan businesses to supply products for each box.

Coupons are another great feature you will find within Sabbat Boxes. Coupons just add to the overall value of your box and are not included in the "total savings" specified on your information sheet/brochure, but definitely add further value as well as further exclusivity to being a member. Be sure to visit our product suppliers websites and stores to help continue to support their businesses and missions as well. 

OSTARA BOX PRICE BREAKDOWN
• Total MSRP of items inside: $51.34

• Total Shipping Savings: $8.60 
• Grand Total In Savings: $19.99 

~Our members helped to support 5 Pagan run businesses with their Sabbat Box membership! Unlike some subscription boxes (that only use their own products inside each of their boxes), we work with other Pagans and Pagan owned businesses within the community to purchase and supply the items featured within our boxes. In the end, we want to help the community grow and share our business with companies that share our same values and standards.
Sabbat Box - A Subscription Box For Wiccans and Pagans

TIME:
We take pride in assembling each and every Sabbat Box by hand, no matter the amount of time it takes. We don't just throw your items inside a flat rate priority mail box like some other subscription box companies out there. We want your Sabbat Box to be delivered to you as beautifully as it left us, and it takes a tremendous amount of time to complete this task.

This includes folding the boxes together, individually cutting each sheet of tissue paper by hand, weighing out the crinkle paper for each box, designing the flyers, coupons, stickers and brochures to be printed professionally by commercial printers, individually placing each candle within a bag, individually assembling the boxes, individually packing the tissue paper within each box by hand, putting together and creating product packing. This timeframe doesn't even include the efforts made to manage the Sabbat Box website, the back end billing system, social media management, customer service inquiries, accounting, marketing, purchasing, networking, and so on.

We believe in what it is we are doing and we sincerely hope that each and every one of you can see that the purest of intent and utmost care goes into curating each Sabbat Box.
