When I was 13, I watched Practical Magic for the first time, and something about Sally Owens and her little apothecary spoke to a part of me I didn’t even know how to put into words yet. ✨
I couldn’t have known then that a movie I loved so deeply would quietly plant the seed for a lifelong dream ~ one day actually working with plant magic and opening a shop inspired by Sally’s apothecary. And somehow, all these years later, I actually did it. 🥹🕯️🌿
Since then, I’ve read all the books (more than once) and every year on my birthday, I watch the movie. It’s become a little ritual, a way of returning to that 13-year-old girl who dreamed of a life filled with magic, herbs, books, and a little bit of the extraordinary. 🌙
Happy Practical Magic 2 day! ✨
