Last year, not only did I do a regular blog post about Samhain, I also had one called, "5 Witchy ways to celebrate Halloween" published on the SheKnows site. For Samhain 2016, I plan to put together another simple ritual like I did for Mabon. I'll have that posted for next week's Witchy Wednesday -... Continue Reading →
WW – Super Full Aries Moon
On Sunday October 16th, the Super Full Aries Moon (also known as the Hunter's Moon) arrives. Oh, and did you know that the October Full Moon is the only moon of the year to stay in the sky all night (rising at sunset & setting at sunrise)? To suss out what this all means, I... Continue Reading →
WW – Full Pisces Moon and Lunar Eclipse
On Friday, September 16th, the Full Pisces Moon arrives, along with a lunar eclipse. While it won't be visible in my neck of the woods, it is elsewhere (click HERE to check your location). To suss out what this means, I once again scoured the interwebz for people more well-versed in astrology than me. First,... Continue Reading →
WW – Full Aquarius Moon
On Thursday, August 18th, the Full Aquarius Moon arrives, and brings with it a kinda sorta, itsy bitsy, tiny almost, little bit of an eclipse.

There are some mutterings around the interwebz that this will also be a Blue Moon, but only according to an old, obscure, and strangely almost local-to-me source. There's a great explanation of it all in the article A May Full ‘Blue Moon’ on Tap For This... Continue Reading →
WW – Full Pink Moon in Scorpio
Not only is this Friday Earth Day, it's also when the Full Pink Moon in Scorpio arrives. However, unless you're wearing a pair of rose-colored glasses, don't expect the color to be anything unusual - "Pink" refers to the appearance of phlox (one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring), and not the...

WW – Happy Earth Day
While the original Earth Day was founded by Christian peace activist John McConnell and put into action mostly by students around 1970, it's a natural fit for witchy types like myself. The day kinda snuck up on me, so I didn't have anything planned, but I managed to do a few of things. First, I... Continue Reading →
