Color of the day: Lavender Incense of the day: Poplar Incense of the day: Poplar Today is Abraham Lincoln's birthday, and his face graces the American penny. This is also "Lost Penny Day," a day to find pennies and circulate these coins back into the economy. Pennies seem to have little value, but they are the cornerstone of many monetary systems. The old rhyme "Find a penny and pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck" is truly a spell of continuing power. Luck seems so elusive, but it can be as common as a penny. Gather pennies from the stray places throughout your home. As you pick each one up, chant: I found this penny and picked it up. All day long I'll have good luck. Place the pennies in a bowl on your altar. Whenever you need luck, take a blessed penny and carry it through the day. When the day is over, donate the penny to a good cause. |
