New Moon Blessings!

 

New Moon Blessings!

 
Welcome to your November new moon and the first new moon of your Witch's New Year!! While all of you will no doubt notice the impact of the energy of this new moon, some of you are going to find that the energy coming is going to kick off a burst of growth and transformation in your life.  You are ready for it though, and you can feel that in your heart and soul as you rise up to greet the energy today.  

We are at the beginning of the first lunar cycle in a new year.  Energy of transition moves around you calling to you to work with the knowledge that you gained over the past year to put the finishing touches on some changes that you are working on in your life.  While you may find that the past calls to you, this is not the time to answer.  Instead keep your eyes focused on the path that you are meant to be on moving in the direction that you know you want to go.  You may find that boundaries and speaking up for yourself may be necessary in doing this.  Don't be afraid of it! Walk the path that you want to be on in your life right now. You will only realize the true potential of this new energy moving around you if you keep moving forward. Sometimes those new beginnings aren't easy to see so make sure that you are looking for them and not just passing them by! 

Our Moon is in Scorpio this evening.  Scorpio brings energy of passion.  What gets your heart racing and makes your stomach jump because you are so excited? What direction does  your heart call you in? What is it that makes you excited to wake up and greet each day? Right now you want to focus on what you are passionate about in your life and if you are someone that struggles with this, you are going to find energy around you right now that helps you to find things that you are passionate about. 

Scorpio also brings energy of endings and new beginnings in your life.  You are going to find that things that aren't working for you in your life are illuminated and you are going to feel called upon to make those changes that you need to make if you are someone that has been putting them off.  You may find that you need to leave something behind to move towards what you want.  That's not always an easy decision.  Make it carefully but once you decide what you truly want, commit to it and go after it.  It doesn't do any good to revisit past decisions or to think about decisions that you could have made.  Invest in your heart and soul and fully commit to what it is that you want in your life to have the best results.

There is a lot of energy around you to help you to become who you are. I know right? If you are someone who is easily influenced by others, you've had things in life weighing you down, you've been bogged down by healing you need to do or any number of reasons that you haven't been able to be yourself or you haven't been feeling like yourself, this moon is bringing energy that is going to help you with that if you choose to embrace it. For those of you carrying grief or old wounds or trauma that you are struggling with, there is energy that will help you to work with this energy and to transform it into something that empowers you rather than something that holds you hostage or causes you to keep on the same loops in your life.  This can be an incredibly powerful time to work on fixing things that are holding you down.  This is a time to be honest with yourself about the things that you really need to work on.  As an added bonus I am finding that things that you set in motion now will become easier as you move towards the full super moon later on this month so make sure you work hard on things!

There may be some energy of conflict around this new moon. Watch out for things that sting. You also want to watch how hard you put up those defenses and how you may react automatically.   If you are finding things challenging or even triggering, slow things down, pay attention to what's happening and be sure that you react in the way that you want to.  This is not a time to rush things.  Honor yourself, take things at a pace that is comfortable for you.  Be very careful not to do something that compromises who you are or what you want in your life. Remember to breathe. It's something so simple but it can help you to center your thoughts quickly when you need to.  You can handle anything that comes your way. Have faith in yourself.

Want to know how this new moon will impact you personally? Stop by and book the special November New Moon Reading with me.   Mention that you saw this article and I'll give you a special bonus oracle card! :))  At the time of writing this I also have some special New Moon Tarot Messages for delivery today.  For those of you that work with the Goddess Hekate, this is a great new moon to work with her.  I also have a special Goddess Hekate reading on the shop.

Have a Blessed New Moon!

Much Love and Many Blessings,

Adding Magick to Your Bath

 

Adding Magick to Your Bath

The colder weather is just starting to return here to New England and this is the time of year that at the end of the day I love to jump into a toasty bath to warm up and relax.  I'm sensitive to a lot of things and most of the fancy products on the market really bother my skin.  I've found a few things that I love that I use to fancy up my baths and I wanted to share them with you today as you will find they can make bath time a bit magickal as well.

One of my favorites is Epsom Salts.  They are incredibly relaxing and they cleanse your energy as well.  To add some grounding energy you can also use Himalayan Salts or even some sea salts.  Want a truly magickal combination for grounding, cleansing and healing try a bit of all three.

Next comes moisture.  I adore baby oil.  It does have a bit of a smell to it but it's one that I find incredibly relaxing.  It will help rejuvenate your skin and give it back some moisture.  This is especially important if you live in a climate like I do where the heating systems can really dry out your skin.  Baby oil brings you soothing energy and energy of protection.

Now comes the fun, you can add scents to your bath.   You can use any essential oils that you choose.  You can also use extracts.  This is something that I just started doing.  You only need about 1/4 of a teaspoon and they smell amazing.  Try different combinations.  One of my favorites is lavender and vanilla.  Another favorite is citrus and mint.  The possibilities are endless.  Look of the magickal properties of the energy you are trying to bring to you and choose the scents accordingly.  For instance Citrus will bring you positive energy, mint is prosperity and relaxing, lavender is relaxing.  The possibilities are endless. 

Finally I love adding candles.  There is something about a quiet dark room with candles that just makes it that much more relaxing.  They can be any candles that you wish.

These are all things that you can use on a daily basis or they would make up the perfect ritual bath as well.

Enjoy!

Have a magickal day!

Much Love and Many Blessings,

Welcome November!

 

Welcome November!
 

Happy Witch's New Year and welcome to November!  I went out for a walk today and it was almost 70 here in New England.  I am loving the warm weather.  While all the leaves are typically off the trees by Halloween here, that is not the case here this year.  We still have some beautiful colors on the trees around us and I'm loving it.  I'm embracing the beautiful slower paced energy that November typically brings in before the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.  Though I have noticed a huge pushback on holidays in general this year so I'm curious to see if December looks a lot different this year. I know October definitely did.  There were a fraction of houses decorated this year and while I can't say I was surprised it made me a bit sad.  I understand it though.  I'm just hoping it comes back next year. 

We celebrate our New Moon on the 9th of this month. I'm excited to dig into what energy it's bringing our way with you next week.  Our Full Moon will be on the 24th of the month and is a Super Moon so you want to keep an eye on the energy that it brings for you.  If you haven't booked your 2026 Witch's New Year Reading yet, I will be taking that down soon! 

Let’s take a look at what’s happening this month.

November 1 – Mexico’s Day of the Dead, New Moon, Witch's New Year

November 4 - 5 - Taurids Meteor Shower

November 9 - New Moon

November 17 - 18 Leonids Meteor Shower Peaks

November 24 - Full Moon

November 30th – Festival of Hekate

I pulled the Ace of Cups for November.  You are going to find some beautiful new energy moving in around you throughout the month.  I'm loving this energy...it is going to come at a slower and nicer pace than what we've been dealing with.  You should find that it helps to bring new things your way that help to calm things down a bit.  This is going to be new energy that is centered largely upon the energy of your heart.  You may find yourself working to settle into all the changes that have happened in your life recently.  The focus will be turned on you and what it takes to find more love and inner peace. You may find that you reflect upon the past a lot this month.  It's ok to grab information and use it to help yourself and perhaps work on some healing but be sure that you are moving forward on your path.

Have a magickal day!

Much Love and Many Blessings,

Happy Witch's New Year!!

 

 

Happy Witch's New Year!!

Happy Witch's New Year! I'm so excited to open this door to a new year with you! We are certainly in a different place today than we were a year ago right? What a journey the last year has been! 

As you step onto a new path today I want to remind you to keep the things that bring you love, happiness and inner peace closest to you in your life. I know many of us are navigating financial struggles and challenges in life that can make things really tough but look for those places that you can find peace in each day, love around you and those things that make you smile.  Embrace the blessings that you have in your life right now and in doing so open up your energy to have more of them come your way.

I have a lot of energy that is meant to help us to embrace learning more about ourselves and finding more inner peace.  Coming up you can expect to see things that have to do with love and comfort more in Moonsong Daily Magick as well as more personal stories from me that I hope you will enjoy! I hope that many of you are enjoying the journey that we are taking and I'm looking forward to embracing our new year together. 

I find that the Witch's New Year is significant as I feel like it's a bit of a new beginning or new start for our magickal and spiritual paths.  It's a new book that you hold that magickal pen to write the story of your life that you wish to see. Start thinking about the things that you know will help bring more magick into your life and look for ways that you can work with energy to help you in your day to day life.  To know how to work with energy is to know how to empower yourself in life. I'm looking forward to exploring more energy with you this upcoming year that you hopefully will find helpful on your path.  

As many of you know, your home is your foundation in life.  It should be a place that nourishes your soul and surrounds you with happiness and love. Today is a good day to reset the energy in your home as well.  Go through your house with white sage or a white candle if you are sensitive to smell and walk it counter clockwise starting in the back of your home and moving towards the front.  Command that any energy that isn't in your best interest be gone. Then go back through with dragon's blood incense or a white candle and bless your home with positive energy and peace for the upcoming year.  Do something amazing to celebrate the new energy around you now and the beginning of our Witch's New Year.   

Have an amazingly magickal day!

Much Love and Many Blessings,

P.S. I have a special 2026 Witch's New Year Reading available for you on the shop! 

Samhain Blessings!

 

Samhain Blessings to all of you. Samhain is most often pronounced SOW-in. It is almost always celebrated on October 31, however some celebrate it on November 1. I personally celebrate Samhain on October 31st and then our Witch's New Year on November 1st.   The name Samhain originates from the Gaelic "Samhuin" which can mean the end of summer.  Some other names for this Sabbat include the Third Harvest, Samana, Old Hallowmas, Vigil of Saman, Shadowfest and Samhuinn. I'm quite sure we could find some more if we go digging! 

This is one of the two times during the year where the Veil is at it's thinnest at communication with those who have crossed becomes easier.  Many of you can probably feel the veils as they are thinner. If you walk outside in the dark under the Moon you can just sense the presence of loved ones on the other side all around us.   Tonight is the perfect night for communication with your ancestors and loved ones who have already crossed.  While I always encourage you to leave them messages all year, tonight is an incredibly powerful night to do so.  It's part of why I love the pumpkin spell that I gave you above. 

You will often see feasts done this evening.  They are called Dumb Suppers. These feasts are a way to honor those who have crossed before us, both related to us and others that are important in our lives.   This can be a bit feast where you gather with others or a simple feast that you put on yourself.  You will set a place at the table for your loved one or honored one that is on the other side.  Often their place setting will have their picture and a candle in their memory.  It's a way of inviting them to visit you this evening.  If you are interested in learning more about them I have an article for you here: The Dumb Supper

Tonight is also a night of increasing psychic awareness.  For those of you who are sensitive you have probably already been noticing the energy shifting around you. The energy has been getting stronger by the day and you've likely been picking up on that.  If you are wanting to work with your gifts, tonight is the night.  If you have divination skills that you wish to work on, do it this evening as you will likely have quite effective results.  I do wish to caution you about the strong energy this weekend. If you are very new to working with your gifts you may wish to wait a year. I always recommend to everyone that you ground and center both before and after working with the energy this evening.

Today we also celebrate the turning of the Wheel of the year.  We say goodbye to our crops tonight as we have completed our final harvest. We get ready for the cold weather which is beginning to come down upon us.  The Mother Earth is preparing for a long sleep, and the plants and animals are responding accordingly.  Our Sun God is not with us tonight as he is readying to be reborn at Winter Solstice.  We call upon the Crone tonight to assist us this evening.  

Tonight is also our Witch's New Year as I mentioned earlier.  At sunset this evening it is the beginning of the Celtic New Year.  Tonight is a night where we need to let go of the old and prepare to bring in the now. Take a look at where you have been over the last year.  Is there anything you wish to finish before this evening? Make a list of what you wish for in the New Year.  Make sure you stop by to book your 2026 Witch's New Year Reading!!

Samhain is a fire festival.  Traditionally it has been celebrated with bonfires, and large feasts.  When doing magickal workings tonight focus on releasing bad habits, any banishing work, divination, astral projection, past life regressions, clearing obstacles, and contacting those who have departed.

There is so much to celebrate tonight and so much energy to work with. Tonight is a honor our ancestors, say goodbye, and start new with our Witch's New Year.  In addition to the pumpkin spell and the possibility of the special feast you may want to consider making a special shrine or album to honor your ancestors.  Visit the cemetery and pay tribute to those who have crossed before you and leave them an offering. Carve pumpkins and place white candles anointed with patchouli in them to encourage your ancestors to visit. Drink hot apple cider in a toast to those who have gone before you.  

Have an amazingly magickal night!

Are They Sending You Signs From the Other Side?

 

Learning to Spot Signs That Your Loved Ones are With You.
 
Many of us have loved ones that are currently on the other side. As we are close to Samhain the veils are thinnest so communication is even easier.

What I wanted to address today is the methods of communication and how we can communicate. Often times we are looking for things like we see in the movies, full body apparitions, voices clear as a bell etc. If that happened all the time there would be zillions of stories out there and no one would need psychic's or mediums. The more sensitive you are the easier it is to pick up messages from your loved ones.

But here's the thing. Instead of looking for voices and full bodies apparitions which even the most talented psychics would have a hard time seeing, you need to know where to look. So let's look at some ways that will help you to know they are with you.

Watch your dreams. This is the easiest place for our loved ones to communicate with us. If there is someone you wish to connect with, keep a notebook next to your bed and write down as much as you remember of your dreams as soon as you wake up.

Pay attention for synchronicities and other signs around you. If there is something that your ancestor loved and you are all of a sudden seeing a lot of them, that can be a sign. My Grandmother loved cooking and making Italian cookies. Every so often I will find them in the strangest of places and I just know it's her. On my birthday every year I see a rainbow. It always makes me cry when I see it. It's been over 20 years since I lost them and every year it's there. It's probably one of the most powerful signs from them. There are even signs that won't be so obvious but you just get this feeling in your belly that lets you know it's then. Be careful what you dismiss as a coincidence.

Pay attention to scents and other sounds, sensations. My Grandmother has several scents that she sends me. I was discouraged when she first crossed because I wasn't finding signs that I felt were obvious enough. I second guessed myself a lot then. I finally figured out that she sends scents. It depends on the spirit what signs you will get. When you learn to detect their presence you will know they are around. Don't question their presence. If you think you felt them, odds are you did.

Watch for animals. For instance, my Grandfather loved Deer and he will send them to me as a sign. I also have cardinals that are sent to me. I also believe that sometimes our fur babies on the other side will send other animals to visit us as well or in some cases perhaps to live with us.

To add to the energy for contacting them there's some things you can do to help. I'm always a huge fan of the white candle and simply asking from your heart. I believe direct questions and queries often get direct answers. So light a candle and talk to them. They can always hear you,

You can also set up an altar or special space for them to help add to their energy and encourage their presence. If you have loved ones on the other side they are always with you, even when you think you can't hear them or see them. Just know that they are there.

Much Love and Many Blessings,

Those October Winds of Change

 

Those October Winds Of Change


We always talk about the winds of change that come in March but what about those winds that come in October? We went to have lunch in the cemetery just a few days ago because it was gorgeous that day and the cemetery near my house has the most amazing trees and fall foliage.



This is one of my favorite old trees there. It has the most wonderful places to sit against it's trunk.



Here's another picture. The colors are so incredibly vivid! We went back out for a walk today and would you believe the wind has blown the top half of the trees is now bare? There are still some leaves but I'm so glad we took lunch there the other day. Did you know that people used to have parties in cemeteries because they were so beautiful? I will have to tell you more about that a different day!

It occurred to me today that we often emphasize the March winds of change and they do come pretty strong but October has some pretty intense winds of change that come faithfully every year as well. We had a storm just the other day that was so much fun to watch and over the past couple of weeks we have had some windy days. We still have a lot of leaves on our trees as you can see in the pictures. By Halloween they will all be on the ground here. One of my favorite memories at Halloween when I was young was stomping through all those leaves in my costume as I went to collect my treats at all the different houses. The trees are much more spooky without leaves.

As you navigate the Season of the Witch you will often find that you are working to remove things from your life that are no longer working for you as you move towards Samhain. As you remove those things the energy goes with them making room for new things to come your way. Often those new things will be better suited to where you are and what you want in your life. This gets you ready for your Witch's New Year just after Samhain! :)

As you go through this week look at how the winds of change are impacting your life right now. :)) Remember when you have energy of change around you it's a great time to make changes that you want to see in your life as well.

Have a magickal day!

Much Love and Many Blessings,
