The Celtic New Year...Time for A Deep Clean

Samhain marks the Celtic New Year and I am getting into the spirit of things, making plans and doing some deep cleaning. I want to face into winter with my dreams and aspirations clear in my mind; as well as snuggle down into a clean house. If you would like to make your own cleaning agents, some recipes are below.
I prefer all things natural which includes my cleaning products. Apart from those, I make my own medicines too. If you would like to know how to make medicines yourself, have a look at my Introduction to Herbal Medicine course,
www.danusirish...
My two little books, The Weed Handbooks Volume 1 and 2 are helpful aids to getting started with wild plants and they are available here - www.danusirish...
We have just celebrated Samhain which is one of the great festivals on the Wheel of the Year. My course Wise Woman Way training is a transpersonal course which follows the Wheel of the Year. We meet with Plant Spirits, Irish Goddesses and craft magical and medicinal remedies as we heal from past hurts. Our next festival to celebrate will be the Winter Solstice. More information here - www.danusirish...
Thanks so much to Lol for the music and editing. You can find out more about Lol's music here lolhardimanmus... He is also on youtube - / @lolhardiman5247
The cleaning agents I use in my home are natural and free of toxins. I clean windows and glass with a mixture of white vinegar and a drop of liquid soap. To wash woodwork I use Soda Washing Grains which are dissolved in hot water and then a clean rag or cloth is soaked and wrung out and applied to the woodwork. I use the Gem brand which is freely available in Ireland. For bath and sink cleaning I mix bicarbonate of soda with a little white vinegar and some liquid soap to make a smooth paste. Sometimes for extra hygiene I add a little lemon juice. This is very effective for bath tubs, sinks and taps and tiles. Sometimes I will add a drop of a favourite essential oil for a clean fresh scent. I like to spray my laundry - especially bedding - with Lavender water. There are a number of ways to make Lavender water. Sometimes I infuse water with Lavender flowers, with a cap of vodka added. Alternatively I use 150ml of distilled water and 30ml vodka and add about 20 drops of an essential oil. I hope you enjoy making your own home cleaning agents.

I love to see how the chickens, dogs and cats are able to roam free around your land - thank you for letting them live their best lives!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

They are all happy and each in their own world - fascinating to watch them just being themselves. xx

[@jayatkinson1152]

Teri, I love this. I have a theory that our New Year should begin in March... then we need 13 months (Moonths) because September would then be the 7th month (Sept meaning 7) October 8th month, (Octo = 8) November 9th month, December (Decem = 10) 10th month... our natural rhythms have been tampered with when the Gregorian calendar was forced upon us... With 13 moon-ths the actual year would be balanced and in tune with natural rhythms xxx

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I agree we are not in the right balance and as we have 13 moons why not 13 months. Don't know enough though - about the different calendars. xx

[@julyjoy6756]

Since the passing of my Dad we have begun the process of moving to my parents Homestead (it's 102 years old). I have been doing a ton of deep cleaning along with smudging. It's been emotionally tough and cleansing all at the same time. Remembering the old and preparing for the new. My parents raised my brother and I in this house and have lived in it for 45 years. The kitchen parties, the gatherings around the wood stove, the music played, the dancing, the singing, all the love made and turmoil at the end needed to be remembered, celebrated and faced. I will be spending this week alone in the old farm house to sift and sorted through it all at the same time doing a physical and emotional cleanse. I'm looking forward to it all and coming out the other side ready to move forward and honor the traditions. Thank you for the reminder to sweep out the dirt. Much love from July of Canada 🇨🇦

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Good luck with the work and with the move. Such times are bitter sweet xx

[@Gwing7061]

Thank you for the cleaning tips Terri, I would be lost without my white vinegar and bicarb 😁 I have been using them for a while now. We've gradually replaced all the shop bought stuff with more natural ingredients which are , as you say, much better for the planet. Always a pleasure to see you best wishes 🌼

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Best Wishes to you too Gina - Happy New Year xx

[@lindaedwards7840]

Hello to you both, lovely video again to see all the natural colours vibrant even under a dark sky. Cleaning for the New Year meant repainting my kitchen adding a new and fresh dimension upcycling existing furniture with a fresh new colour endless joy at achieving and bringing about the changes. I follow the Celtic calendar, " Colette's" learnt the" Old Irish way of pronouncing each day and month on Calendar.. My father was a Roscommon man, living in England heritage roots are deep. Really enjoy your video and lifestyle, Samhain blessings to. You for the New Year . Hugs and Blessings to all.💚🌹

Thank you so much Mildred xx

[@johndayan7126]

Lol is so talented! A brilliant musician and a master builder! That is a beautifully made room by any measure, and to do so with upcycled materials is an additional challenge. Outstanding and a work of art. In many ancient cultures the new year begins in the fall, and it makes perfect sense: After the end of the agricultural season, the new year begins. The Jewish new year begins in the fall also. Another great program. Thank you. Peace be with you friend. 🥀🌻🍀🍂🍃🥬

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

How are you john? Thanks - Lol will be delighted with your comment. Great peace to you and all xx

[@lolhardiman5247]

Hi John thank you so much for your lovely comments, I'm honoured and humbled (leave me SOME modesty! 😂). I realise that building is actually not a very hard thing to do and our ancestors all built without the input of "experts" and architects. They just got on with it. You're right, though, it's more challenging using pre-used materials in so much as it easily doubles the time to do the job. Very rewarding though, and it feels so good to know you've not made too much of an impact on precious resources as you would otherwise. Blessings to you and your family, John, and thank you so much for your support. It means so much ❤

[@johndayan7126]

Thank you for the very kind reply Lol! So good to hear from you. I meant every word. I'm a musician myself, and taught music and played guitar professionally for years (before going to the dark side and becoming a lawyer), so I recognize a great guitarist when I hear one, and a talented builder (even though I'm not much of a carpenter). Many, many blessings to you and your family as well Lol. @@lolhardiman5247

[@kerryl4031]

Also a bicarb and vinegar person - surgical spirit in some places too. Lovely to see your extension in progress too with a fantastic end result. Your cupboards - who would have known they were originally pallets!! This has been the worst year for weather here. Pretty poor harvest too. Most eaten by slugs - even my two plum tree leaves were stripped when their pots blew over. Not much else can be done outside - it is sodden! So cleaning indoors and sewing a lot! Sewing is the prize for completing a chore! LOL!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I love sewing when I have my sewing head on. Lots of sewing to do for Christmas presents so sometimes rain is a blessing xx

[@annbeirne9583]

Happy Celtic New Year to you too Terri. I have been making my own cleaning products for some years now, I was allergic to the scents and chemicals in the bought ones and a friend recommended a small book to me for making window cleaning spray. polish and laundry stuff as well, I love the clean smell it gives off, I use peppermint in my window cleaning spray, and olive oil, tablespoon white vinegar and lavender oil in my furniture polish the house smells lovely and fresh and clean, and you wipe it on leave for minute and then buff to a shine, I love polishing things to a shine, takes more time but it is more than worth it. I am going to try your, window cleaning spray as well, then I can choose which one suits my mood at the time. My family laugh at because I make my own cleaning stuff and herbal medicines but I just take no notice and get on with it the satisfaction I get from producing my own stuffs out weighs their stupid comments by a mile. I feel so much closer to nature the more natural stuff I produce, and my granddaughter is getting more interested but , I know her mum won't let her do any of it but I am going to show her so, that when she is older she can make her own stuff anyway. I made her some beautiful hand made soap shaped like roses because her middle name is Rose, with oats in as she has eczema, and they threw them away and told her not to accept anything from me as I was dangerous and didn't know what I was doing, I do still treat her occasionally when she comes on Sunday with her dad, and I ask him and he reluctantly say it is up to me and if Cara my granddaughter is happy too I then give her whatever she might need all made with lots of love and magic. I do however believe the time is coming where our skills are going to be needed much more than before unless we get burned as witches once again, something in history I hope doesn't repeat itself🤣💖💜💚 P.S Apparently I am talking a load of BS about all the dangerous chemicals in food, cleaning products etc, you know what I mean so I don't need to list everything. Thanks for all your wisdom I love everything you do 💖💖💞

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I hope your granddaughter gets to see you every week as you are light of her week I would think. Your daughter in law sounds like a very foolish and ignorant woman - even if she didn't agree with your way of life, to throw away a beautiful hand made gift is so disrespectful.. You are right about our skills being needed and I agree with you that I hope history doesn't repeat itself - again!! You are a wonderful example and influence for your granddaughter, showing her how to be a strong and independent woman. Sending lots of love xx

[@lolhardiman5247]

Hi Ann your words about your family's distain for your efforts are very moving but I sense a quiet strength in your purpose. I believe these crazy times are coming to a tumultuous end and we will indeed need the skills and the wisdom of our wise elders in the years to come. Nature, like hope, springs eternal and truth can never be suppressed for long. God bless the work and know that you are working with forces much greater than yourself 💚

[@annbeirne9583]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thanks Terri she is certainly the light of my life when she comes. Still going to do what I love, I am going to try candle making, dehydrating food, fermenting food, sour dough, and making my own ink from oak galls and rusty nails for iron oxide, Also my own apple cider vinegar, can't make the fire cider because of my silly stomach.

I've always used white vinegar & baking soda to clean, like my granny did. I'm sensitive to artificial scents & have sensitive skin, so this method always worked best for me. She also taught me to pour a cup of white vinegar in the laundry to help cottons (& other clothes made from natural fibers) retain their colors - particularly those that were dark or bright colors.

There is NEVER a good time for never ending cleaning. So much dust from clothes and bedding it's like a daily dust storm! I sort of wish I could just burn the house down and buy a new clean house. My excuse (I think a pretty good one) is having chronic fatigue and I'm not joking. Having energy you soon come to realise is important for everything and not good when you always feel knackered and just constantly overwhelmed. Speaking of plastic bottles, I just got one of those Bidet Bottles to try (HappyPo brand) and I am surprisingly impressed with using that to clean my rear end. I call it the Ring of Fire Extinguisher! I do like spicy food and I suppose it is technically cleaning up afterwards & about the only cleaning I actually enjoy lol. Oh and almost forgot, good for the environment using less loo roll so something everyone could do and save money too.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks for sharing such a personal story - I love your name for it - the Ring of Fire Extinguisher!😂 Hope it doesn't really get that hot. Sorry to hear you are living with CF and overwhelm and hope you get some respite soon xx

[@lolhardiman5247]

My brother-in-law has had M.E foe thirty years now. He is up and down and has found a rhythm with it all. He's had to deal with people not understanding that he is ill because his symptoms are largely invisible. I think things are changing now, thankfully, but it has been a struggle and a frustration for him. I hope your good days increase and you regain full health.

[@geeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzz]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Hi Terry. Yes I maybe got a bit overly graphic (excited about my new discovery)and it doesn't really get hot but can feel irritated at times so I think this will help. I did want to share with the world my new toy and I'm still finding it very good so bought another while on offer. For me a long overdue discovery. I am now about to try Shilajit, have some on the way today as apparently that can help with chronic fatigue and asthma ( I have that a little also) so hope to get some result from the Shilajit. Strange that I only found out about it recently and I've been looking at CF info for years but Shilajit could be just the thing? Vitamin B12 (GP prescribed recently) or CBD oil did nothing and Ashwaganda, Siberian Ginseng and Rhodiola, St John's Wort are all good but not really resolving anything fully. The search goes on.

[@smrk2452]

Thanks for the cleaning tips!

[@lisaschmidt8466]

I love lists too and crossing a task off is a dopamine hit.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Most definitely and especially when you look over the list and see how many items you have crossed off. xx😂

[@Artstudiovaneijk]

Love the cats ❤️😻

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Who wouldn't?😂 So lovely and fluffy xx

[@nannygranny9534]

Good morning!! You have inspired me to start cleaning and I am appreciative if the cleaning recipe. I can't use chemical cleaners. I prefer the clean scent of natural cleaners any way. So good to see you again. Makes my day and puts a smile on my face. Have a wonderful day of cleaning and celebrating!🧹🎃

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I can't use those chemical things either, the smell is nauseating. Clean and natural is only way to go. Hoping you are having a beautiful week of joy and good things xx

Happy new year. Been getting all the gardens put to bed. Planting garlic, bulbs, cabbages etc. Next weekend is the inside clean. Love the cooler temperatures here in Louisiana we can finally open the windows and get some fresh air moving through the house. Thanks for the recipes. I'll give them a try.
