It's somewhat ironic, in an Alanis Morissette kinda way, that as a writer, I had a hard time writing a Dark Moon Release spell. When I first started studying Wicca, all the books (yes, back in the dark days before the interwebz was a thing) had beautiful, poetic spells that I felt needed to be... Continue Reading →

WW – Dark Libra moon
Next week, on October 12 2015 (8:05pm EST, so on the 13th in some areas) the dark Libra moon arrives. As always, I created a graphic.

WW – Mabon & Super Full Moon Eclipse
One of the reasons I started doing Witchy Wednesday posts was to give the rediscovery of my witchiness a focus. Too many times over the years, I'd think, "Gee, I wonder what I should do for Mabon/Litha/etc next week? I should look some stuff up." Then a week later, I'd realize I'd forgotten, and the...

MM – Tahereh Mafi Moon Quote
Earlier this month, The Smart Witch posted a quote from author Tahereh Mafi on her Facebook page, and I knew I'd eventually have to steal it use it for one of my moon photographs. Here it is, paired with a picture, taken on August 22, 2015 at 7:29pm. Speaking of Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me is... Continue Reading →
WW – Dark Moon in Virgo with a splash of Solar Eclipse
I had a rather difficult time writing today's post about the upcoming Dark Moon in Virgo (and not just because my brain is melting, thanks to another 1,000 degree day). In this past year, as I've rediscovered my witchy side, I've been reading, researching, and reacquainting myself with basic ritual protocol, but since I'm more... Continue Reading →

So, what exactly is a Super Moon? I went to the EarthSky website, and found this tidbit of info -... Continue Reading →

WW – Birthday & Lammas & Blue Moon, Oh My!
Since today is my 50th birthday, I was going to be shameless and ask my readers for a gift from my list below. Then I felt guilty. Then I remembered I'll be going in for a surgical procedure in the near future, and decided life is too short to be wishy-washy about wishes. (Wow. Passive... Continue Reading →

WW – Magical Month
Rabbit, rabbit for this magical month!! First, a correction - in my last Witchy Wednesday post, I stated the Full Thunder Moon was tomorrow night. I apparently got this information from a site that uses UTC (Coordinated Universal Time - the order of the letters is apparently a compromise between the English and the French),... Continue Reading →
