Hello Beautiful Soul,

The first full moon of 2025 graces the night sky on January 13th at 5:27 PM (or 2:26 PM PT). This powerful moon, known as the Wolf Moon, takes its name from the howls of wolves echoing through the cold winter nights. Wolves, symbols of strength, intuition, and freedom, inspire this moon’s energy, which invites us to embrace themes of personal empowerment, shedding old patterns, and transformation.

This full moon glows brightly in the nurturing sign of Cancer, a sign deeply connected to the heart and emotions. Cancer, the moon’s astrological home, thrives in its own sign. It’s the perfect energy to begin a new year—aligning our internal rhythms with the cosmic cycles. As the wheel of time turns into a fresh year, this full moon helps set the tone for what’s to come.

Cancer's influence encourages us to honor our emotional truth. Full moons signify completion, culmination, and illumination, and Cancer’s touch adds depth to this, helping you strip away the distractions and tune in to your emotional wisdom. This is a time to listen closely, feel deeply, and create space to receive the wisdom that is moving through your body.

While the new year invites new beginnings, many of us might feel like we're trudging through quicksand, struggling to gain momentum. This sense of sluggishness is intensified by Mars Retrograde, which will be particularly strong throughout January. It may feel like each step forward is met with two steps back. However, this cosmic energy offers an opportunity to release outdated patterns that drain our energy and keep us stuck.

Under the light of the full moon, turn inward. This is the perfect time to shine a light on what truly matters in your life. Establish sacred boundaries around your desires, reconnect with your heart’s needs, and honor the self-care rituals that align with your deepest intentions. The work now is inner work—the transformation unfolding in your soul is profound, even if outward progress feels slow or stagnant.

Cancer calls us home—to the nurturing energy of the Divine Feminine. Trust that even in stillness, profound growth is occurring. Ground yourself in the nourishing energy of the earth, and take comfort in knowing that this is a time of spiritual renewal, emotional clarity, and deep self-trust.

As we move toward Imbolc on February 1st, a sacred time honoring the first glimpses of spring, we are invited to continue our inner work, focusing on new beginnings, healing, and connecting with the fire of the heart. Much like the Wolf Moon, Imbolc calls for a rebirth—caring for ourselves and our surroundings. The energy of this time is magical, connected to the feminine aspect of the goddess, and encourages us to strengthen our magical gifts.

So, dear ones, let us step into this year with authenticity, aligning ourselves with who we truly are and who we are meant to become. May you embrace the magic of this moon and weave it into the fabric of your life.

Moon Activating Breath

Chandra Bhedana connects us to the feminine Ida Nadi and involves closing the right nostril and breathing only through the left. This pranayama practice cultivates calmness, coolness, and feminine energy in the subtle body, making it an ideal preparation for meditation, yoga nidra, or sleep.

Create a Vision Board

Vision boards act as powerful reminders of your aspirations. Collect images, magazine clippings, or digital prints from Pinterest to create a visual representation of your dreams. This will help keep your goals front and center as you move through the year.

Set Up a Sacred Self-Care Ritual

Self-care is a deep, sacred act of nurturing yourself. Create a ritual that supports your soul: take luxurious baths, sip fragrant teas, or indulge in activities that make you feel safe, relaxed, and rejuvenated. After the whirlwind of 2024, we all deserve to give ourselves some extra love.

Journaling

As a witch, I’ve always used journaling as a tool to document my dreams and daily moments. But journaling is so much more. It is a sacred act of introspection that helps us manage our emotional states, providing clarity and amplified success in both magic and healing.

Hello Beautiful Souls,

🌕✨ October Full Moon in Fiery Aries: Unleash Your Inner Warrior ✨🌕

As we enter the mystical embrace of the spooky season, with pumpkin spice aromas swirling in the air, cozy evenings under soft blankets, and the crunch of golden leaves beneath our feet, Grandmother Moon reaches her full power at 7:26 p.m. EST on October 17th. But this isn't just any Full Moon—it’s an Aries Full Moon, infused with the bold, pioneering spirit of the zodiac’s first sign. Get ready, because this one is set to ignite our deepest passions, pushing us to step into our own light with unapologetic fierceness. 🔥

Full Moons typically bring about the climax of energy, a time for manifestation and release. Yet, Aries, the fierce and fearless warrior, calls forth the fiery depths within. Emotionally charged and intense, this Moon is not for the faint-hearted—it demands action. It's time to stoke the flames beneath our inner cauldrons and let our spirits blaze under the shimmering night sky! 🌑🔥

Though shadows grow longer and daylight shortens, there is a light of pure possibility that flickers in the encroaching darkness. The world is shifting rapidly, with changes swirling around us, just as the energy builds before the upcoming elections. Now is the moment to pay attention to the cosmic whispers guiding us. Together, we must stand heart-forward, facing the truths we’ve long avoided. The collective is stirring, organizing, and rising up to bring transformation through action and peaceful protest. The message is clear:

We are the Change.

As women, we carry the sacred energy of change within us. 🌸 We are vessels of the Moon’s magic, naturally attuned to her rhythmic cycles, channeling her transformative force in ways that are beautifully unique to each of us. Under this Aries Moon, it’s time to rise, embrace our inner warrior, and face life’s challenges with courage—not with anger or blame, but with fierce love and determination. A true warrior is calm, organized, and steady, ready to meet the storm with grounded strength. 🗡️

This year may have tested our spirits, but remember, as you step into your highest vibration, stay connected to Mother Earth. Breathe deeply. Speak from the heart. Let the old karmic weight melt away in the sacred fire of transformation, and when the moon shines her brightest, howl with joy, love, and liberation. 🌕

I send you wild love, abundant joy, and endless blessings as we honor this Witches' New Year. Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for being here with me each month on this magical journey. 🌙💖 Tanto Amore!

To Honor This Full Moon:

🌑 Shadow Work: As we turn inward with the Wheel of the Year, now is the time to call upon the Divine Feminine within. Release all that no longer serves you—whether it's fear, negativity, or burdens from the past. Shed the old skins, clearing space for the new energies of growth and transformation.

🍵 Samhain Tea Ritual: Brew a potion that honors the magic of the Samhain lunar cycle. This ruby-red tea, infused with hibiscus flowers, rose, cinnamon, and orange peel, mirrors the moon’s vibrant energy. Steep in the warmth of your intentions and savor each sip.
Ingredients:

• 4 parts dried hibiscus
• 3 parts fresh orange peel
• 2 parts dried rose petals
• 2 parts star anise
• 1 cinnamon stick

Steep in hot water, and let its magic flow through you.

💧 Making Moon Water: On the night of the full moon, place a clear quartz crystal in a jar of purified water (feel free to make it by the gallon!). Set the vessel outside, bathed in the moon’s light, ensuring it’s covered. By morning, the water will be charged with lunar energy. Sip each day to harmonize your body, mind, and soul with the moon’s powerful vibrations. 🌕💎

Embrace the Scorpio New Moon’s Deep Transformation

Hello Magickal Beings…

As we dive back into the watery depths, the Scorpio New Moon on November 1st veils the skies in mystery, drawing us into a season of intense healing, spiritual awakening, and profound transformation. With the days growing shorter and the winds swirling stronger, this New Moon invites us to harness the alchemy of the moment, channeling Scorpio’s potent energy to rise with renewed purpose and clarity.

This lunar phase marks an opportunity for a fresh beginning—one that aligns with the darker season’s call to reflection and inner power. Emotional tides are at their peak, nudging us toward deeper awareness and powerful shifts within.

The Numerology of November: Fulfillment and Change

While November traditionally resonates with the number 11, 2024 brings a collective numerology of 10, symbolizing karmic fulfillment, divine insight, empowerment, and transformative change. This is a month for energetic shifts that ripple not only in the spiritual realm but through societal and political landscapes as well, dissolving old patterns and ushering in waves of renewal. With the Scorpio New Moon occurring when the veil between realms is at its thinnest, this is an ideal time to draw your Tarot cards and tap into those spiritual vibes. The dark goddess energy, synonymous with Scorpio, invites us to connect with the unknown and prepare for transformative growth.

Lunar Samhain: The Opening of the Samhain Portal

For many witches and mystics, the veil remains thin throughout the year, yet as the sun moves through Scorpio, the spirit world feels especially close, amplifying the energies of this “spooky season.” Following Halloween, the Scorpio New Moon aligns with Lunar Samhain—the midpoint between the Fall Equinox and Winter Solstice—ushering in a potent portal for closure and release. Any endings, shifts, or karmic clearings initiated now will carry lasting impact through the Winter Solstice, deepening our commitment to transformation.

This period is one of powerful self-discovery and healing, as Scorpio encourages us to explore beneath the surface and embrace the shadow aspects of ourselves. Known for themes of death and rebirth, Scorpio teaches that true self-love means honoring every part of ourselves, including the parts we may often hide away. This shadow work is sacred magic, empowering us to be whole, resilient, and renewed. Think of Scorpio’s energy as Shakti’s strength or Kali’s fierce renewal—driving transformation and honoring our rawest selves.

Sacred Rituals and Festivals of November

This Scorpio season invites us to connect deeply with our desires, our spirituality, and our inner power. Whether you’re engaging in spellwork, sex magic, or deepening your intuitive skills, embrace this time to explore your truest self. Light candles, gather your tools, and revel in the depths of Scorpio season!

In dark times, it is often said, light shines brighter. Allow the New Moon’s inner glow to guide you, offering hope, courage, and strength. Consider lighting a candle on the New Moon as a gesture of peace and abundance, honoring the ancient wisdom of darkness and light.

Festivals and Goddesses of the Season

• November 14 – Diwali: Honor Lakshmi, the Goddess of Abundance, as part of the Hindu Festival of Lights.
• November 14 – Kali Worship Day: Acknowledge Kali, the Goddess who breaks down the old to usher in the new.
• November 16 – Night of Hecate: Celebrate Hecate, Goddess of Magic and Crossroads, invoking her guidance through transitional times.

Herbs and Crystals for the Scorpio New Moon

• Herbs: Sage, basil, bloodroot, devil’s club, hibiscus, patchouli, uva ursi, foxglove, hops, horsetail, nettles, grape root, catnip, coriander.
• Crystals: Aquamarine, black tourmaline, labradorite, red jasper, rose quartz, sodalite.

Embrace this season of transformation, honoring both the light and the shadow as we journey into the depths of Scorpio’s mysteries. May this Scorpio New Moon inspire your rituals, guide your magic, and illuminate your path. Blessed Be! ✨

Greetings, Moonbeams!

The New Moon in Virgo arrives on September 14th, 2023, casting its enchanting light at 9:40 PM ET/6:40 PM PT. This celestial event marks a significant turning point, illuminating a path that beckons us to release the old and embrace the new. With six major planets in retrograde during this New Moon, the cosmos urges us to pause, reflect, and gain a deeper understanding of our past before we journey forward.

Embracing the Virgin's Wisdom

In the cosmic dance, we are guided by the Virgin, a symbol of a woman wholly attuned to her inner self. Rooted in her grounded power, she serves as our beacon, helping us strip away the blockages and obstacles hindering our progress. An awakening is upon us, signaling the commencement of a new cycle.

Staying Grounded with Earthy Virgo Vibes

As we bid adieu to summer and embrace the approach of Mabon, the fall equinox and harvest time, Virgo's earthy vibes remind us to stay grounded and adaptable. It's the meticulous attention to detail that paves the way for our grandest dreams to become reality.

A Season of Gratitude and Letting Go

Under the New Moon's influence, we are presented with the opportunity to harvest the fruits of our endeavors with gratitude. Anything that no longer serves us can gracefully fall away, making room for new growth. If you find yourself facing challenging changes, take a moment on the night of the dark moon to quiet your mind and connect with your inner self. In this stillness, healing and guidance abound.

Dream and Create

This New Moon invites you to dream boldly and choose what you wish to create in your life. Like wondrous potions bubbling in a cauldron, your intentions simmer with potential. Remember, dear yogis, when you allow your true self to shine through, your soul will indeed sparkle.

As we gather under the gentle embrace of the New Moon in Virgo, may we find solace in the wisdom of the Virgin, the grounding power of the Earth, and the promise of new beginnings. Here's to the radiant journey ahead!

Hello Moonbeams! ✨🌑

The magical month of December has arrived, bringing with it the year’s final New Moon—a celestial bridge between two months. This lunation rises at 10:21 p.m. PT on Nov. 30 and 1:21 a.m. ET on Dec. 1, marking the perfect alignment with a fresh calendar month. The timing is serendipitous, offering us the ultimate clean slate and a moment to set intentions for the journey ahead.

This New Moon graces the adventurous and free-spirited sign of Sagittarius, a zodiac known for its expansive energy and quest for meaning. Though invisible in the night sky, its energy is profoundly potent—a divine invitation to manifest, dream, and embrace new philosophies that can reshape how we see the world.

🌌 A Cosmic Reset

In today’s world, filled with uncertainty, this New Moon feels like a sacred pause. It’s an opportunity to reflect on the whirlwind of this past year—a time of profound challenges and transformation. The cosmos has been nudging us to grow, evolve, and release what no longer serves us. Now is the time to take those lessons to heart.

Much like the Archer’s bow that symbolizes Sagittarius, this lunation invites us to aim with precision. Focus on intentions rooted in your authentic desires, personal truths, and fearless aspirations. Trust your inner vision as you align with the New Moon’s energy to set the stage for a brighter, more aligned future.

🌠 Navigating Mercury Retrograde

It’s worth noting that Mercury retrograde will be in full swing during this New Moon, bringing potential hiccups in communication, technology, and travel. While this may not be the ideal time to launch big new projects, it’s the perfect moment to nurture the seeds of your dreams. Use this time to reflect, plan, and refine. Release outdated beliefs and create space for fresh ideas to take root as the new year approaches.

🌿 Aligning with Sagittarius Energy

Ready to harness the magic of this dark moon? Reflect on areas of your life where you’re ready for change or crave more freedom. Set intentions aligned with Sagittarius themes of self-discovery, personal growth, and expansive thinking.

Here are some rituals to deepen your connection:

• Meditative journeys: Visualize your future self and explore the possibilities that excite your spirit.
• Journaling under the dark moon: Write down your desires and dreams. Use this time to release the past and step into the boundless possibilities ahead.
• Incorporate sacred tools: Work with crystals, herbs, or essential oils to amplify your intentions.

As the Wheel of the Year turns toward the Winter Solstice, this lunar phase invites us to embrace the quiet, tune into our emotional selves, and restore balance. Let the Moon’s luminous energy guide you as you prepare for transformation and renewal.

🌙 Sagittarius Moon Magic

Herbs: Anise, basil, mugwort, clove, dandelion, endive, honeysuckle, hyssop, linden, sage, yellow dock
Oils: Lemongrass, orange blossom, vetiver, nutmeg, frankincense
Crystals: Black obsidian, labradorite, turquoise, blue lace agate, tiger’s eye, citrine
Chakra: Solar Plexus – the center of self-awareness, confidence, and self-worth
Sagittarius Rules: Liver, tailbone, hip muscles, and hip joints
Moon Drink: Sip on a heart-opening cacao drink as you reflect, journal, or soak in a relaxing bath. Cacao, a natural earth medicine, nourishes the body and opens the heart.

🌟 Your New Beginning

As 2024 draws to a close, let this New Moon be your starting point. The energy of Sagittarius reminds us to aim high and believe in the limitless possibilities ahead. With every ending comes a new beginning, and this is your moment to step boldly into the magic of the future.

The best is yet to come, my lovelies—I feel it, and I know it. 🌟
Blessed be, always. 🌙✨

Hello Moonbeams! 🌕✨

The time has come to embrace the celestial energy of the twins—it’s Gemini Full Moon time!

On Sunday, December 15th, 2024, at 4:02 AM ET (1:02 AM PT), the final Full Moon of the year will rise, casting its ethereal glow. Known to ancient pagans as the “Moon Before Yule,” this lunar event bridges the celestial and seasonal, culminating just days before the Winter Solstice on December 21st.

Astrologically, the Full Moon shines a light on hidden truths, drawing them out of the shadows and into conscious awareness. The early morning hours, from 4 to 6 AM, are especially potent for spiritual work, as the veil between realms is thinnest.

Interestingly, while December is numerologically the twelfth month, 2024 carries the vibration of the master number “eleven”—a symbol of spiritual awakening, creativity, and divine inspiration. This is a powerful time to reflect:
💭 What is working in my life? What am I ready to release?

The Energies of Gemini

Ruled by Mercury and aligned with the 3rd house, Gemini is a dynamic air sign that buzzes with curiosity and restless energy. Under the light of this Full Cold Moon, you may feel a surge of emotional turbulence or a flutter of anxiety.

But don’t worry—this moon is a guide. It invites deep introspection, self-reflection, and the opportunity to recharge after the whirlwind of the year. As the days grow darker, burdens may feel heavier, but Mercury’s energy offers momentum to release what no longer serves you. The Gemini Moon encourages letting go of old patterns, opening your heart to deeper self-awareness and growth.

Finding Balance Under the Moonlight

While Gemini thrives on social connections and lively interaction, this Full Moon whispers a quieter message: pause, breathe, and reflect. Imagine cozying up with a steaming mug of hot cocoa, nibbling on homemade cookies, and reminiscing about the year gone by. Sounds dreamy, right?

The season of magick reminds us to slow down, nurture our bodies, and plant seeds of hope for the brighter days of spring. On the Wheel of the Year, every celestial change is a celebration—a chance to connect with yourself, your loved ones, the Earth, and the divine.

Moon Ritual Ideas

There’s no wrong way to honor the moon. Whether it’s a simple crystal cleanse or an elaborate ceremony, the choice is yours. Here are some suggestions to inspire your ritual:

🌙 Celebrate the Full Moon:

• Indulge in dark chocolate.
• Treat yourself to an aromatic massage.
• Create moon water for cleansing and manifestation.
• Take a soothing rose petal bath.
• Savor tea infused with moon herbs like rose, jasmine, lavender, or chamomile.
• Share a Full Moon supper featuring white wine, shellfish, and crescent rolls.
• Stroll the beach under the moonlight.
• Offer milk, honey, and bread to the fairies.
• Smudge your space with sage or palo santo.
• Dance under the moonlight!

🌟 Gemini Crystals:
Agate, apatite, aquamarine, celestite, chrysocolla, citrine, emerald, epidote, howlite, clear quartz, and serpentine.

🔥 Fire Ritual:
Winter is the perfect time to work with fire. If you’re lucky enough to have a fireplace, write down a wish on paper, burn it under the Full Moon, and watch the smoke carry your desires to the Goddess.

🕯️ Full Moon Yule Altar:
Infuse your altar with seasonal magick:

• Evergreen, dried fruits, and pinecones.
• Cinnamon sticks, dried flowers, and herbs.
• Candles in gold (sun), silver (moon), green (spring), and white (winter).
• A statue of a winter deity like Morana, Cailleach, or Odin.

Gemini-Inspired Yoga Flow

Gemini rules the lungs, shoulders, arms, hands, and nervous system. Try this sequence to connect with your body and spirit:

• Seated Spinal Twist
• Shoulder Stretches
• Downward Dog
• Warrior I
• Dancer Pose
• Warrior III
• Boat Pose
• Child’s Pose

As we bask in the glow of the Triple Moon Goddess—Maiden, Mother, and Crone—may this Full Moon illuminate your path, spark your creativity, and nurture your soul.

Happy Winter and blessed Full Moon, sweet souls! 🌟❄️

Hello Moonbeams!

We began this year with a Capricorn New Moon and are now concluding it under the steadfast guidance of the sea goat. However, this is no ordinary New Moon. As 2024 draws to a close, a rare Black New Moon in Capricorn will peak on December 30 at 5:27 PM ET. This unique lunar event, marking the second New Moon in a single calendar month, offers a profound cosmic clean slate—empowering you to embrace change with clarity and determination.

For many spiritual practitioners, the Black Moon is a mystical portal, offering deep access to higher realms of consciousness and divine wisdom. It’s the ultimate year-end gift, granting us a moment of grace to close a challenging year with the grounded stability of Capricorn.

Symbolized by the sea goat—a mythical creature that’s part goat and part fish—Capricorn embodies the harmonious union of spiritual mastery and material achievement. This resilient being navigates both the depths of the sea and the peaks of towering mountains. Despite its unconventional form, the sea goat’s perseverance transforms obstacles into triumphs, reminding us that challenges are stepping stones to greatness.

Adding to this celestial moment is the Black New Moon’s alignment with Neptune, heightening the potential to merge dreams with reality. This rare synergy bridges the ethereal with the tangible, making it an auspicious time to turn visionary goals and spiritual practices into concrete plans and purposeful action.

A Call to Deep, Intentional Work

This is a time to shed what no longer serves your highest good and step forward with clarity, resilience, and trust in your sacred power to shape a future aligned with your soul’s essence. It’s not about fleeting wishes but about planting seeds that honor your core values and manifest a life that reflects your inner truth.

The potent energy of this moment invites you to journey inward, to sit in stillness, and to listen to the whispers of your spirit. Ask yourself:

• What stirs the depths of my soul?
• What calls me toward my truest path?

Use this divine opportunity to weave your dreams into reality, setting intentions that resonate with your being’s magic and the universe’s wisdom.

Harnessing the Black Moon’s Energy 

Here are some practices to help you align with this transformative lunar phase:

• Meditate, Journal, or Perform Rituals: Dedicate time to set intentions, release the old, and welcome new beginnings.
• Explore Spiritual Practices: Engage in candle magick, vision board creation, or divination techniques like tarot or oracle readings.
• Personalize Your Ritual: Tailor your practice to your unique intentions and spiritual beliefs to amplify its power.
• Design a Sacred Space: Incorporate Capricorn’s grounded and ambitious energy using symbols, crystals (like garnet or smoky quartz), or earthy colors.
• Declare Your Intention: Light a candle as a symbol of focus, speak your goals aloud, and vividly visualize their successful manifestation.

As we close this year and welcome 2025, let this rare moon anchor you in your power. Trust in its energy to bring you clarity, resilience, and unwavering confidence in the journey ahead.

What stirs your soul? What seeds will you plant under this rare moon? Let the Black Moon’s energy guide you as you co-create a life that aligns with your truest self. Trust that your heart will be your guiding light. 

Wishing you a magical New Moon and a radiant start to 2025!
