When I decided to open a Etsy store it was a way to offer sales, offer supplies and essential oils that I do not sell on my JoAnne Bassett website. The Etsy site with a couple of clicks can put your whole store on sale or just a few items.  My JoAnne Bassett website does not have that capability and I have to manually change all of the coding. After the sale you then have to change all of the prices back.

I opened the Etsy store JoAnne Bassett in 2009 to offer close out sales of product and draw new clients to my store. A new venue to ship worldwide and to be found for handmade, small batch perfume. There were years I did not add any products..sell much of anything …or focus on updates, tags, titles, photos or all of the Etsy SEO and learn the new rules they have.

As the years have gone by the Etsy site has grown with lots of new stores.. new rules… and difficult search engines…Their fees of 10% just to sell a product is not bad but if you sell on offsite ads the add 12% fee to that to make 22% off.  You cannot opt out of offsite ads if you have sold a lot of product. So the total fee of a sale becomes 22% off. Now to draw attention to your store.. or even be found in search I started offering free shipping and or a sale of 20 to 25% off once in a while.  It helps to bring visitors to your store and can motivate people to try your perfumes.  So if you look at all of these fees together 10 + 12+ 20= 42% off.. or at 25% off it becomes 47% off.  Add on free shipping to the US and the profit goes down even more.

Offering free shipping is a Amazon idea that Etsy also copied.  The jury is still out if it is a deciding factor in a purchase or not.  I have tried to keep my shipping the same on both stores.

Etsy has been changing the rules and policies lately that has affected my store. Metaphysical services may not be sold on Etsy. Examples of prohibited metaphysical services include: Items with a metaphysical outcome (e.g. attracting wealth, love, etc.)

I saw how they were removing items from and closing stores that they deemed were claiming a metaphysical outcome.  My natural perfumes have all received Divine and Royal Alchemy and Divine Light downloaded into them.  This postive energy is not a claim..it just is.  Like adding love to your meal you are cooking for loved ones.. it is intention.

Yesterday I began to change and delete some descriptions of my store announcement and my natural perfumes.  Today I again see my products removed for these claims.

My purpose in posting this is please go to my JoAnne Bassett website to read the full descriptions and purchase whenever possible.  The idea of me putting my energetic perfumes on Etsy where they are not valued rubs me the wrong way.  I am not making medical claims with my essential oils or perfumes made with essential oils. Aromatherapy text books have shown research for the last 30 years or more listing the health and emotional benefits of lavender, citrus oils, and many others.  When you list St. John’s essential oil helps with depression. you are not saying it will cure it.. merely that it will help alleviate the symptons.

The items on my website are many and I continue to add more.  If you find a shopping cart malfunction please email me at joanne@joannebassett.com  The work of starting a new Shopify site is something I have done recently. There is too much to do with it and I do not have time to remake what I already have. My website is also in search engines for many years so I must consider that.

Again I thank you for your business and support with this. I appologize if you have trouble with my website.

My focus these days is selling my Perfume Formulas and/ or selling my company JoAnne Bassett and leave my legacy.  No one is promised tomorrow.

The definition of an all natural perfume is a botanical perfume that has only essential oils and absolutes for ingredients.  Artisan all natural perfumes may also contain handcrafted tinctures of flowers, herbs and spices.

I am having a small sale of 9 Items on my Etsy store. Some of my best sellers are included like my Perfume Kit and my Natural Perfume First Aid Kit.

Go there and check it out!

I have 36 roses growing in pots now.  It is so much fun getting back to growing more roses… of different types.

This year I am also experimenting with growing vegetables from seed in pots also.  There is hard red clay in North Carolina and pots are much easier for now.

There are many flowering trees, red bud trees, bulbs blooming, and forsythia blooms in my neighborhood.  Also the pine pollen is covering everything. Welcome to Spring!

Isis – Goddess of magic and wisdom 

Isis was known for her magical power, which enabled her to revive Osiris and to protect and heal Horus, and for her cunning.

By virtue of her magical knowledge, she was said to be “more clever than a million gods”.  Notice the throne headdress. 

I remember being a High Priestess at the Isis Temple. I have so many memories there.

While in Egypt I purchased a special desert rose otto that I have used in this perfume.  Wear this perfume and feel the power of the Goddess Isis.

Bastet – Goddess of protection, cats, perfume/ointments, fertility, pregnancy, children, music, the arts, and warfare.

Bastet in her late form of a cat-headed woman, rather than a lioness. Also known as Bast or Baset. 

I have always loved cats and had over 20 of them growing up as a child. My birth name Bassett is so much like Baset I feel like this is a part of me.

She is a Goddess of perfume and ointments and that is part of my Divine Work.

Wear this magnificent perfume and feel the energy of protection and more from Bastet.

The Isis and Bastet perfumes are the latest perfumes in the Goddess Collection.  Go there to purchase them now.

The 8/8 portal is energetically significant as it allows us to actively receive downloads of cosmic energies that support the earth’s overall renovation and transformation. The Lion’s Gate is given this name because it occurs in the sign of Leo, and is the mid-point of the sign at 15/16 degrees. The number 8 is associated with mastery, reward, success, abundance, and manifestation, making this an auspicious energy field for intentions and creation.

Three stars in Orion constellation match up with the three pyramids in Giza, Egypt during this 8/8 portal, further amplifying cosmic energies flowing onto the planet through pyramid energy receptors. Sirius is commonly associated with the Lion’s Gate, but it’s important to note that Sirius is a fixed star located at 14 degrees Cancer. It is the brightest star in the sky; Sirius is 26 times brighter, and twice the size, of our solar system’s Sun. Sirius was viewed in the sky above the pyramids by ancient Egyptians during this time of the year, and it was commonly interpreted as a sign of prosperity, harvest, success and abundance.

I wrote a post earlier regarding this amazing energy and some of you have already purchased my Lions Gate Portal Perfumes…

Benefits of My Natural Perfumes

When you wear these natural perfumes you will receive these benefits. You will be attracting abundance or love for example. Wearing these botanical fragrances with intention you are drawing these aspects to you and becoming the intention you have set. The magical perfumes have been encoded using Royal Alchemy. Using my Aromatherapy education I am able to create perfumes for various conditions of the physical body, and the emotional body. Every natural perfume I offer has the intentions of raising consciousness and vibrations, and empowerment when worn.

Opens our heart (to receive love)…

If you feel your heart has been guarded for too long…

Hello! It’s JoAnne,

Jeannie looked over at the bright green numbers on her digital alarm clock and as usual it was 3:05 am…

She’s found herself waking up again, wide awake, after only 3 or 4 hours sleep.

Unable to fall back asleep naturally…

Her mind was ablaze with thought.

It’s been over a year since she closed her heart after seeing the texts from another woman on her lovers phone…

Unable to cope with being caught, he lashed out at her.

Told her it was her fault and that even though he wished he hadn’t done it, he felt like he couldn’t talk to her.

Her heart, shattered in a million pieces, she shut down.

Where before she felt like weekends were to be enjoyed with her love…

Now, Friday nights were romance movies on Netflix and ice-cream alone…

Sunday afternoons, were uneventful, at best even though friends urged her to go shopping with them…

Jeannie isn’t alone…

There are millions of men and women who have shut down their heart for one reason or another.

But there’s a way “out” and it doesn’t require therapy on some therapists couch either.

I don’t know if you can relate or not but…

Raising you vibration and self esteem is about opening your heart chakra and being open to receiving love, joyful, uplifting and healing properties.

It’s being able to reach out and connect with your highest self.

To know you’re already WHOLE.

This is extremely difficult when leading with the head and mind…

But it’s natural to and simple when you’re leading with your heart.

So the first step to receiving Deep Love is to allow it to come to us.

That’s why the Deep Love Collection is such a magical perfume because it allows it to come to you now.

Claim it out loud I “I AM Deep Love!”

And so it is…

Would you like details on the Deep Love Collection?

There are two options.

Time is running out because all orders are final as of February 7th at midnight.

Deep Love in your life is as simple as anointing yourself with this magical perfume daily with intentions.

To get details on the Deep Love Collection #1 or #2 just reply to this email with “DEEP” and I’ll reach back out.

Alchemically in your corner,

JoAnne
