More info on the Aura-Soma Price Update
January 21st, 2009
We have received many comments about the impending price rises, but there was absolutely no other alternative at this time for Aura-Soma Products. We buy most of the component parts of our products (such as the glassware, the bottles, essential oils, extracts, minerals etc) in Euros and other foreign currencies.
As you may be aware, the British Pound has been badly affected by the current financial crisis. As a consequence of its diminished value, it is costing us much more to buy our component stock.
Furthermore, inflation in the UK has affected our UK expenses, costs and general overheads etc. The aggregate effect is that our own costs and expenses in all currencies have increased very significantly over the past year, to a point that unless a price rise occurred, Aura-Soma could have ceased to exist.
We always regret increasing our prices, because it has been, and will always be, our philosophy to make Aura-Soma products as widely available as possible, but in this instance, we have had no choice. Please be aware that we, as part of decisions made some considerable time ago, linked all ASPL prices to the Euro, the actual shift in the Aura-Soma Euro price has actually only been a minimal 2 ½%.
I know this note does not give you the answers you may seek, but these are the facts facing us at this unprecedented time in the world. We really appreciate all the levels of support we have received, what is paramount and most significant that inspires us daily is your on going commitment to Aura-Soma and the fantastic system we all contribute to.
With much love & light, as ever
Hope this helps to clarify some of the reasoning behind their decision

New Gilbert Williams Calendar
August 2nd, 2008
It has been some time now since we have written a blog and yet it feels as if it was yesterday. We were at the Mind Body Spirit Exhibition and it was really lovely to meet some of you.
I am very pleased to let you know that we will be receiving the new Gilbert Williams calendar for 2009 in August and next year it will be the Year of Celebration!!
Looking at the news these days with all the violence and crime, the worldwide credit crunch, the cost of fuel and all other negatives that dominate the newspapers and television, it is very hard to believe that next year can be a year of Celebration and yet we have chosen to come here at a very special time and perhaps there is a letting go of all the negativity and rubbish from the past so that a new beginning can be birthed!
New Hazel Raven Essences
April 18th, 2008
Our delightful fascination with angels grows daily. Ordinary people speak openly about how angels have assisted them, stories of angelic intervention and inspirational artwork is everywhere.
Interest in angels transcends language, culture and boundaries. Why are so many people inviting angels into their lives? It seems the angelic realms are set to guide us more than ever before, this is due to the vast planetary changes as Mother earth and humanity undergo this spiritual evolution which will awaken our ‘higher’ heart chakra ready to manifest the foretold ‘New Golden Age’ when angels will walk once more with men.
About the Angel Essences
This wonderful essences range was made just like our other angel ranges ‘Archangel’ and ‘Children of the Angels’ at the request of the angels. We take great care in making our extraordinarily beautiful essences. They are natural and handmade with love and in a calm focused meditative state of mind. They are created in a clear quartz crystal singing bowl which is harmonically tuned to the crown chakra note of B. The base of each angel essence is distilled activated healing water. By attuning to the crystals and invoking the angels to imprint the pure distilled water each sacred angel essences captures via the crystal kingdom the positive spirit of the angelic crystal devas. The information on each essences comes directly from a Soul-engaged perspective. Each of the Angel essences is a magical catalyst for change and transformation. Each Angel essences has a consciousness of its own which creates when used an auspicious field of emerging-light. The Angel essences are significant ‘tools of light’ which have been specifically designed for therapists, kinesiologists, reflexologists, Reiki healers, dowsers, and integrated medicine practitioners and those who wish to simply work more closely with the angelic realm.
The Angel essences aid spiritual evolution and ‘Light Body Activation’ by releasing and transmuting with love karmic, ancestral and emotional imbalances at a deep cellular level.
Focused intent is the most powerful way of familiarising yourself with each essence. Affirmation on the desired outcome of the angel essence is always beneficial. As is using the essence over a longer period of time whilst affirming the energy to be with you all day. To immerse yourself in the healing energy of the angels simply use the essence every day. You can use two or three essences together but it is more powerful to use one essence at a time.

Bottle 74 - Triumph
October 6th, 2007
Well at last a blog that is not just about postal news, although they are striking AGAIN, but rather something that is based on inspiration. I have decided to write a blog every couple of weeks about each of the 106 bottles currently in the set.
In July 2006 I ran my first colour day for Aura-Soma Practitioners and since that time I have run four other colour days with a Violet day coming up later this month. I have found that in running these days it has provided me with a deep insight into each colour and this knowledge has extended into my personal knowledge of the bottles.
It is from this place that I would like to share each bottle with you. I was going to start with B0 and work forward or B105 and work backward but that felt too ordered. Instead today I am going to write about B74. The reason why I chose this bottle to write about is because I have a set of the Aura-Soma Tarot cards which I choose from every day. The card of the day helps me to feel inspired and tap into the essence of the colours of that bottle which is very supportive on that given day.
Bottle 74 is Pale Yellow/Pale Green and the name of the bottle is Triumph. It has a Tarot relation which is the five of pentacles and is also the pale version of B07 which is known as The Garden of Gethsemane - Test of Faith.
As B74 is a pale version of B07 it stands to reason that we may be experiencing an Intense test of faith however, the name of the bottle is Triumph which appears as if there is a resource within us which can help us to overcome this situation.
Perhaps the answer to this lies within the pale green which is the energy of the heart. Sometimes it feels as if our head is at loggerheads with our heart and we don’t always know which to follow.
The clear is added to the Yellow/Green to make the pale/intensified version of the bottle and perhaps it means that we need to be clear about what it is that we would like to create.
Clear can also indicate a level of suffering within the being and this may also be part of the test. Each of us has had a sense of suffering and it can help us to be more in tune and compassionate toward someone else’s difficulties.
Green is also about direction and making decisions and sometimes this may feel like a difficult step to take. It may be that there are many different situations to take into account as well as taking other people’s feelings into consideration.
The Yellow in this bottle is about the possibility about finding joy and a lightness of being within ourselves. It helps us to understand ourselves more deeply and to understand what our needs are. This is like an inner compass and helps us to find the space to acknowledge what is right for ourselves rather than what we have been conditioned to believe what is right.
Our conditions of the past might have taught us that we should not rock the boat too much and sometimes it can seem more difficult to find our own inner truth which is separate from what we have been brought up to believe. So this bottle can also bring about a great deal of inner questioning however, this helps us to get right down to the heart of the matter.
It is also my belief that when we are tested we are never given more than we can handle (although at times it does feel like we have taken a lot more on board).
With 2012 fast approaching, we have the possibility of creating a new way of being on Mother Earth and there is more general awareness around recycling and global warming and a new term has been invented called our carbon footprint. Now more than ever before, we have a deeper understanding that the way on which we choose to live on the earth creates a rippling effect and we are each important and can make a difference.
This new way of being is a possibility for each of us and we step closer toward this time we may be releasing the pain and suffering from the deep past to allow us to feel a new sense of freedom and joy. This is a personal triumph.
The bottle shakes to Olive which is to do with The Feminine Leadership of the Heart. Olive is also about finding the hope and carrying it within our hearts for a brighter future.
Olive teaches us how to absorb all the wisdom of the past including the pain and suffering without being embittered with us. It has been a necessary journey to help us to recognise the love and light within each of us.
At the time of writing this, I was speaking to a friend and we were discussing how present trend of frequencies may be bringing up different heart issues to be looked at and made whole.
There appears to be a balancing taking place within men and women at this time - men are exploring the heart energies and women are learning how to speak their truth.
It is a time for self empowerment and as we can find the courage to do this for ourselves we can be a guiding light for others to do the same in their own lives.
I hope that you have enjoyed this and I look forward to sharing the next bottle with you 
Love and light
Simone
Going Postal
July 25th, 2007
Royal mail have not as yet been able to settle disputes with it’s workers and as such the Communication Workers Union (CWU) has announced a series of strikes over a two-week period. These begin at 7pm on Wednesday 25th July 2007 and end at 12 noon on Wednesday 8th August.
During this period we can expect delays on parcels as per previous strike days and we encourage our clients to make use of UPS. To help out a little we have waived our packaging fee on orders sent with UPS and subsidised £1 off the shipping fee which means that to send an order with UPS over the next 2 weeks will only cost £4.79
For clients who opt still to use Royal mail, we will send out orders when postal services are available however please expect delays in getting these.
We are very frustrated with the slow progress Royal mail is making in settling it’s industrial action issues and as a result are reviewing alternatives that would still make it cost effective for our consumers.
Warm wishes
Nick
Another postal strike
July 11th, 2007
We have been advised that there will be another industrial strike by Royalmail again this week on Friday the 13th July. Per our previous post this will affect all items ordered Thursday and Friday and early part of next week.
As such, we advise where possible that our clients use the UPS Standard shipping option we now offer.
Warm wishes
Simone
Royalmail industrial action this week
June 25th, 2007
Please be advised that Royalmail is set to have industrial strike action on Friday the 29th of June. This will affect all items that need to be posted out on Friday and we surmise that there might be delays on items posted early the following week due to potential backlogs created.
To help address this we have added UPS Standard as a shipping option for UK based orders. This courier service is offered at a flat fee of £6.39 for orders up to 5kg’s and we have found that UPS is a cheaper option for orders over 1.5kg hence will now be available as a standard shipping option.
We advise all customers ordering Thursday and Friday to make use of UPS if possible. Orders placed using standard Royalmail rates will be posted at the first available opportunity however we cannot guarantee any delivery timescales
Warm wishes

What’s new in June
June 21st, 2007
We hope you are enjoying the wonderful weather and the summer which is full of new growth and the promise of wonderful things to come. We ourselves have felt truly inspired and will be adding some new products to our website over the following weeks.
A little taster of what is to come follows below but firstly we would like to say thank you for the responses to our blogs - these are always gratefully received
First on the list of new products is The Secret DVD. This is a fantastic DVD which opens up the possibility of transforming people’s lives in the most positive sense. You will most likely be familiar with many of the concepts discussed in the DVD but being familiar with them and having the tools of how to put them into practice are very different things.
The Secret speaks about the “Law of Attraction” and teaches us how to attract all the wonderful things in our life. Without realizing it, we often project what it is that we don’t want or what we would rather not have and so the Universe responds to this energy buy sending us more of what we don’t want!
This DVD is highly recommended and has changed our lives forever not to mention other people that we have spoken to who have watched this DVD.
Due to the interest in the White Lions, we have also sourced a novel by Diana Cooper called Web of Light which talks about the leyline which links Egypt to South Africa. The story revolves around the birth of a White Lion cub to two tawny lions and speaks about what the message of the White Lion has to offer us.
If you would like more information on the White Lions please go to http://whitelions.org
The book will be available for sale on the website in the next week and it’s cost is £8.99
Another Product which has been a source of great excitement to us is the Dolphins & Angels Candle. We have worked closely with Peter at Touchfire candles to bring to life the colours and scents that we feel most strongly relate to Dolphins & Angels and we are thrilled with the result.
The colours are white, pink, turquoise and blue and we will have them on the website the first week of July.
We also have a delivery of the Aura-Soma Resource Cards which have been unavailable for some time now. The new cards contain the latest keynotes and affirmations and include the latest bottle (B105). We are currently waiting for the confirmation of price from Aura-Soma Products Limited before selling them on the website.
Arriving in August will be some of Gilbert Williams beautiful work which will make fantastic Christmas presents. A great favourite of ours and apparently very difficult to find in the UK is the Lazaris Calendar.
Each month comes alive with the artwork of Gilbert Williams and the images are beautiful enough to want to frame and display on your walls. There is also an inspirational quote by Lazaris as well as a yearly theme and 2008 will be the year of Freedom. We are very excited to share these with you and we are sure that you will love them as much as we do!
Also coming from Gilbert Williams are some blank journals with a choice of two of his popular paintings on the front cover as well as quotes from Lazaris. These journals can be used to record dreams, inspirations or anything that you would love to surround by beauty.
There will also be a selection of notecards available for purchase which will be a joy for anyone to receive.
Love and Light

Most Popular Product over the last two weeks
June 6th, 2007
The popular product of the last two weeks has been both the Emerald Pomander and the Room Spray. As quick as we have packed them onto the shelf, they have flown off again!
The pomanders were developed by Vicky Wall to offer a protection for our energy field and the room sprays help to protect the energy field of a room.
Although all the pomanders will protect the aura for up to two and a half hours each colour brings in a different element to that protection.
Emerald Green is helpful for protection of the heart and I find it extremely useful when I feel vulnerable. As 2012 comes closer, I suspect that energetically we are releasing a great deal of unwanted emotions that have been stored in the emotional body over many lifetimes.
In the past, we had more time to clear these feelings away slowly but now with 2012 approaching the energy has also sped up for us to release this quicker.
The Emerald of the Heart is also our Connection to Mother Earth and there is a sense of the microcosm and macrocosm within our own lives and Earth.
Heart and Earth are the same letters just arranged differently which also connects to our connection to earth. At this time there is a greater awareness of recycling material and caring more for our planet not just for our lifetime but also for the generations to come.
Aura-Soma first introduced the addition of crystal tinctures to the products in 2002 to empower the energetic solution of the products and the Emerald tincture was the first to be introduced. It was said that the last time this energy was available was during the time of Atlantis and it was added to all the green frequency products. This added a new level of vibration to these products and the first product I experienced it in was the Emerald Pomander.
It added a lightness to the product but I also felt a deep sense of grounding and connection to Mother Earth.
Vicky Wall (the founder of Aura-Soma) also used to speak about the importance of the Green Ray and said that we were moving away from the Yellow Ray that the collective consciousness worked with closely through the Piscean Age as we step toward the Green Ray of the Aquarian Age.
The Piscean Age was learning about power and empowerment and the move to the Aquarian Age is about the move to our own empowerment and coming from the heart space. As we empower ourselves we have the possibility of being an example to others to help them to empower themselves.
Green relates to truth and it helps us to align with our own truth while at the same time respecting other people’s views.
How beautiful that the Emerald Pomander is so popular at this time and may we continue to grow together.
With Love and Light

The Spirit of Marah - White Lion Queen of the Timbavati
April 19th, 2007
One of the most life changing experiences I had was visiting the Timbavati in South Africa last year in September. We went on a Sacred Journey and the highlight of the Journey was that each member of the Journey was able to see Marah and her sub-adult cubs up close in a Land Rover.
Despite being brought up in captivity, the hunting instinct was very strong and she did a fantastic job at teaching Regeus, Letaba and Zaira how to hunt. She became an expert at hunting warthogs and she would dig into their underground burrows to catch them. Sadly after, the recent rains she became trapped in the burrow and this was how she lost her life.
After the sadness my realisation was that the Queen of the White Lions had died an honourable death and that her legacy was done - she had died hunting for the pride in the wild. Queen Marah, you will be sorely missed, but your Spirit and Dignity will live on forever.
Lady Portia - B59 Pale Yellow/Pale Pink
April 16th, 2007
Dear All,
Very often, when receiving orders, I notice that there is a certain trend for most popular product and over the last two weeks B59 has proved to be very popular. It would be interesting then, if we looked at this bottle in greater detail.
Lady Portia is one of the Ascended Master Bottles and Lady Portia appears as a character in the play ‘The Merchant of Venice’ by Shakespeare. In Aura-Soma philosophy we see a link between St Germain and Lady Portia as it has been said that St Germain can be associated to Sir Francis Bacon and Shakespeare.
The motto behind the quintessence and bottle is ‘Judge not lest ye be judged’ and very often we do not judge others in such a critical way as we judge ourselves. The principle behind this is that if we judge ourselves harshly, then we attract an energy of being judged by others towards us.
From a colour perspective, the pale yellow in the top fraction opens us to the possibility of joy. Yellow also offers us courage to face what lies within us and also in external situations. Through courage we open the door to empowerment and as we empower ourselves we can be an example as to how people can empower themselves.
Pale pink relates to warmth, compassion and unconditional love and Lady Portia is helpful in bringing this energy towards us so that we can see ourselves through the space of warmth and unconditional love.
The Pale colours of the Yellow/Pink also have a direct colour association to Yellow/Red (B5 - base chakra bottle) and Yellow Pink (B22 - The Rebirthers Bottle) as the B59 is a tint of both these bottles.
Pink is also to do with a process of awakening that starts in the red. Red is about grounding and the material side of life as well as passion and energy. When we shine the light into the red we find the pink and the awakening in the pink teaches us how to be grounded and how to walk lightly on the Earth.
As we shine the light into the material side of life, perhaps we come to an understanding of abundance - there is more than enough for everyone and if we love ourselves enough we will know that we are worth all the wonderful and positive opportunities that are waiting to come towards us. A key to the concept of abundance and the pink experience is that the Universe waits to provide our needs in each moment, however, we only receive what we think we deserve!
Through the pink the passion becomes compassion and as we bring this towards ourselves, we find it easier to share with the rest of the world. Lady Portia teaches us how to discern what is right for us in each moment by being kind to ourselves.
B59 shakes to Pale Coral and this is to do with Love Wisdom - we balance the love and the wisdom to do what is right for us in each moment. It helps us to let go of situations that have not been appropriate for us and helps us to find a new way of being within.
The colour of the quintessence is Gold and this also helps us to discern clearly what is right for us. It also helps to release tension around the Solar Plexus Area.

Abundance - The Dance of Life
March 30th, 2007
Firstly, I would like to apologise for not writing for so long but life was busy and it was as if I was swept away in the Sea of Life.
Abundance feels like an idea that links really closely with spring. The Source of all growth appearing on the earth again through the buds on the trees, the first flowers of the daffodils and a sense of newness that surrounds each waking moment.
Of course Abundance is available in each living moment for all of us, however, it is through our conditioning from the past that we determine exactly how much of it we are entitled to.
We may have learnt through a basic idea of lack and so we often react to situations from this place and we tend to look at how little we have rather than knowing that there is so much more out there that we can create for ourselves.
Red is to do with survival issues and day to day living where sometimes the material world can weigh very heavily on us. If we shine a light into the Red, we find pink, the colour of self acceptance and unconditional love. It is as if we can soften the survival issues by bringing a little light toward this and a little bit of love.
If we can accept ourselves completely including our conditioning we can bring a little love into what we do and each situation.
The Lady Nada quintessence is about unconditional love and letting go of negativity at a deep level and this energy is also about abundance.
Lady Nada offers the opportunity of realising that abundance is for everyone and not only for some. The key to abundance is that we only get from the Universe what we think we deserve! To break through the patterns of lack and to come to the world from a place of abundance is the key.
Have you ever said affirmations and found that they have not worked? This is because although the words are being said there is a level of your being that does not believe what it is that you are saying. We need to bring love to who we are and to accept ourselves enough to bring this changes about.
The Equilibrium Bottle that relates to Abundance being a dance of life is for me B21. This Bottle is called a New Beginning for Love and it’s tarot card association is to The World.
The image of this card is a woman, dancing naked within the elements of life holding two conductors batons in her hands.
In Aura-Soma, the image of naked people is to do with removing some of our past conditions so that there can be freedom in each moment. She is dancing within the four elements in each of the corners of the card as she is still bound by the elements of earth although she has found a freedom and playful within being governed by the laws of life.
The conductor batons are in many ways the sense of why she has found her freedom and this has come through the self acceptance and unconditional love. Through being free of some of the patterns of the past and using the laws of life in her favour she can now create abundance and a new way of being.
She is dancing in the picture and abundance is a dance and playfulness in life. When we can find this ease with ourselves and with life we can bring the changes into our lives that we would like to see.
Love & Light
Simone

About Steve Skudler
March 15th, 2007
My name is Steve, and this is my first time blogging. I love composing music and want to tell you a little bit about myself and how I got started.
At age 16, I was in my school auditorium watching a Guess Who music video. I was mesmerised watching Burton Cummings play the piano. I told my buddy sitting next to me “I am going to learn to play the piano and I will be playing on that stage in a year.” The following year, I was on stage, playing boogie for a vaudeville program. That was my start in music, and my passion for creating and playing piano continues to this day, 33 years later.
For the last 12 years I have worked as a massage therapist. I would use my own musical creations during massage sessions. Clients would ask if they could purchase the music and I always said that someday I would make it to sell.
That day has finally arrived. I retired from my massage practise, moved with my sweet Sharon to a rural setting in the country close to the mountains that we love, and spend my days creating music.
Sharon and I have daily talks about how we can put our talents to work to offer something of value that could help others. During this time, we had begun our Aura Soma journey. From the first moment I smelled the El Morya Quintessence, I was drawn to Aura Soma. The use of the Equilibrium bottles, Quintessences and Pomanders have had a profound affect on us.
I was putting the finishing touches on a piece of music that I loved, when it became crystal clear to me that my music is the “something of value” that I have to offer. The intent was (and is) simple - beautiful music that could possibly help the listener slow down, breathe, and gain a sense of peace.
I gave the finished music to Sharon to “test drive” during her Healing Touch sessions. The feedback from her clients brought joy to my heart. Once again, clients were asking where they could buy this music. This finished music became the Crystal Clear CD.
I have now had feedback on Crystal Clear from many people, including energy workers, massage therapists, a meditation instructor, an artist who uses it when she is teaching her painting classes, a woman who is using it to become more mindful while eating, and another who uses it for her children when she puts them to bed at night. The main theme of their sweet comments is that the music seems to quickly facilitate a sense of inner peace and centeredness. To quote a friend of mine, “It is like a bed of angel wings I can just lie down in. I listen to it at night during my time of reflection, and each time, the gentle flowing melodies take me deeper - like the music is a comforter I can wrap myself in.”
Twilight Ceremony is the second CD that I am very proud to be releasing. It takes on a different flavor, a flavor that is perfect for many different occasions. The feedback I have received is from people who have used it during a wedding reception, dinner parties, an art class, as well as massage therapists who have used it for clients. The comments have really touched my heart - hearing that the joy I felt while making it is coming through the music.

Happy New Year
January 2nd, 2007
We are now the other side of Christmas and into 2007 and we would like to wish you a peaceful and happy New Year. We hope that all of your most positive dreams and wishes come true for you this year.
Tomorrow, we will be picking our four winners at random from the Prize Draw for all orders that were placed in December so good luck to everyone that ordered online last month. We will need to notify the winners first and then we’ll publish the winners in a blog shortly after.
With a new year brings changes and exciting developments and we would like to share just a few of them with you. We are looking for volunteers to share their experiences with the Aura-Soma bottles. The idea is that you record your feelings and experiences with a particular bottle or set of bottles and we will post these in a regular blog. You can even write the blog entry if you wish. As an incentive, we will be offering an additional discount on the bottle(s) you wish to review/share experiences of. If you think this is something that you would be interested in please let us know.
We are continually updating our website and making enhancements. If you have a suggestion for something you feel our website is missing or can be improved on, please let us know. Later in the year, we will be offering a B2B area for Aura-Soma Teachers and Practitioners where they can purchase products at their wholesale discounts. In addition we are working on a system to make our drop shipping services available online.
One of our skills is making up gift baskets and we are hoping to put this service online and in place for Valentine’s day & Mother’s day although we are sure that this is something that you are certainly not thinking about right now with the taste of turkey, bread sauce and Christmas pudding still very fresh on your taste buds!
We have managed to source some new products which we will be adding to our store shortly. Look out for the new sizes in our popular range of candles together with the new candle called Prosperity.
Lastly, thank you so much for the Christmas cards and warm wishes, they are always appreciated.
Love and Light
Simone

I have been thinking about the colours of Christmas and the messages that they have to offer for this time of the year. Traditionally the colours are Red, Green and Gold.
Red is about being grounded. What does this really mean? To be grounded we are able to be practical and connected to the Earth. This is an important step as it helps us to get in touch with our Mission and Purpose and what we have come to do in this lifetime.
More and more I see the Red as being focused and present and it is when we are truly present that we can give the best of ourselves. When we always look back at the past we find regrets and recriminations and when we look into the future we wish to create something different. If we can put the roots down in the present and start laying the foundation, we can create that future now instead of longing for it.
The past is there as a reminder of the lessons that we have learnt and they can be used as an understanding of what we would like to place in the foundation but we should not get too tied down to how things were or where they went wrong.
At Christmas time we give presents and perhaps it is a reminder to be fully present when we create a joyous New Year. All things are possible if we allow it to be.
Green is to do with the feelings of the heart and Christmas can often bring about some of the most beautiful of human emotions. There are smiles to people we don’t know as we develop a compassionate understanding for others. It must really appear as if there is an abundance of earthly angels at this time!
Green is also to do with growth and perhaps it is a reminder that although we are in Winter the Spring is only a few months away! The evergreen presence of the Holly leaves continue to grow in defiance to the coldness of the winter. In the deepest time of hibernation we too can grow through love and caring!
Gold is about the Incarnational Star - the star that lies two fingers above the belly button and about two fingers depth inside. Like the three wise men followed the Star to Bethlehem to find Baby Jesus so it is that if we follow our own star that lies in the depths of our being so we will find the gifts within. To acknowledge the Star of ourselves is to recognise the point of Alchemy within us -we all have the potential to turn the raw materials into something of great worth.
Although it may be cold outside, may the warmth within you reach out and touch others that we may all share our warmth in the world.
Wishing you a season of love, light, joy and peace and a 2007 that brings the promise of fulfilment of all your most beautiful dreams.
Love and light

Closing dates

The end of the year is nearly upon us and we are looking forward to the Christmas break and some time with friends and family as I’m sure many of you are. We will be closing on the evening of the 22nd December and will re-open on the 2nd January 2007.
Please remember the Aura-Soma price increase will come into effect on the 1st January and any orders placed between the 22nd December and 31st December will be processed at the old (current) prices. We will however only post out the orders after we return on the 2nd January.
Christmas post
Items sent by Royal Mail Special Delivery can be delivered before the 25th December if posted by the 21st December. Royal Mail states on their website that items sent before or on the 19th December will be received by 25th December but please remember that this is a very busy time of year and unless using a service like Special Delivery, nothing is guaranteed.
International deliveries to Australasia, South/Central America, Caribbean and the Middle East were recommended to be posted by the 8th December to ensure Christmas Delivery and airmail to USA, Canada, Japan and Eastern Europe are suggested to post by 11th December. Airmail to Western Europe is slightly later on the 13th December.
We would like to take this opportunity to extend love, light, peace and joy to you and may 2007 bring all your most positive dreams into being.
