Well, this would be worth a trip! DC's Witchiest Bar Will Have Tarot Cards, Zodiac Cocktails, and Unicorn Taxidermy

Story by Laura Hayes for the Washington, DC City Paper.

Gather your coven and follow the smell of incense to Hex. The 35-seat cocktail lounge coming to the second floor of The Passenger in April will have a witch vibe that's less Halloween store and more like a visit to your quirky aunt's house. You know, the one who's always rolling crystals around in her fists to the tune of Santana's "Black Magic Woman."
"I've always had an interest in all the dark stuff," says Passenger and Hex General Manager Kit Yarber. The former Left Door bartender and manager touts that he has collectables from Beetlejuice and watched anything witchy from the 90's with abandon including The Addams Family, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and Witches starring Anjelica Huston. 
At first, bar owner Tom Brown wasn't on board with Hex for fear Yarber would turn the top floor, that's hosted everything from a Hogo pop-up to stand-up comedy, into a goth bar. But the pair struck a deal over a faux taxidermy unicorn head with a Rapunzel-like mane. Brown discovered it online but realized that with shipping from the United Kingdom the unicorn would cost more than a grand. Yarber proposed that if Brown committed to Hex, and to giving him carte blanche on the concept, he'd personally shell out for the unicorn. Done.
"It's going to be unapologetically dark, but not in a kitschy way," Yarber says. Compared to the lively Passenger downstairs, Hex will be more of a dimly-lit, hushed gathering place for easy conversation and heady drinks.

CALCULATE YOUR SOUL, PERSONALITY AND YEAR CARD IN TAROT

DON'T BE AFRAID OF THE MATH! To determine your soul and personality card, add the day, month and year you were born.  Take that total and add all of those numbers in a row.  If the sum is more than 22, add together the resulting numbers.  If the sum is between 10 and 22, that number is your  personality card .  Add that number together to find your  soul card . To calculate your  year card , do this:  add the number of the day and the month you were born to the year you want to check your card for.  Then add those numbers all together for the total.  The sum of those numbers is your  year card .  Your year card is in effect and you are under it's influence from your last birth-date to your upcoming (or next) birth-date.    If you have any questions on this, just ask me (use the contact form on this site). *I use the number 22 for the Fool in order to assign a number value to that card.  **Create a chart or an old calendar and calculate p

The Hidden Occult History of Moldavite

Moldavite Moldavite is one of my favorite stones and I have been using it for magick or wearing  jewelry with these stones for many years now. I can tell you firsthand that this stone does not come from just Czechoslovakia but many other places on our planet. Wherever a huge meteorite has hit, one has a chance of finding these stones...not created with any compound or mineral here on Earth, Moldavite comes from somewhere else, another planet or celestial  body. The term for this is "tektite" and there are many different kinds of these.  Moldavite has a distinctive leafy green color and almost looks like bottle glass. Buyer beware, there are many knock offs out there if you choose to buy some of these stones. Check your sources carefully. Not sure how I missed this very cool article, but it is worth checking out, lots of information here. This is the known history, but I have another history about this stone...maybe I will write about it someday. Enjoy reading this!
