welcome beautiful souls

✨ Ready to skip into Gemini season and dance with the stars? ✨

Beginning May 20 and lasting until the Summer Solstice on June 21, the Sun transitions from earthy Taurus into the lively and intellectual air sign of Gemini. This shift invites movement, curiosity, and fresh ways of thinking. It’s a season of ideas, conversations, and new connections—a breath of fresh air after Taurus’s rooted stillness.

The New Moon in Gemini rises on May 26th, blending lunar magick with a spark of mischief. This is not just any moon—think of it as a shimmering key, opening doors to better conversations, curious adventures, and playful reinvention. Gemini, the sign of the twins, carries ancient wisdom: one twin rooted in the real world, the other dancing among the stars. You hold both within you—the grounded and the spiritual dreamer. Embrace both sides, speak your truth, and let yourself wander between both worlds. 

This Gemini New Moon opens a portal inviting you to hit the reset button on your thoughts, conversations, and the stories you tell yourself. It’s a cosmic moment to get curious, ask new questions, and open your mind to perspectives you may have overlooked. Ruled by Mercury, Gemini brings a burst of mental clarity and energy, making it an ideal time to set intentions around communication, learning, writing, and social connection. Expect mental stimulation and new ways of seeing the world around you.

New Moons always invite renewal—however, this is not a call for sweeping reinvention, but an attunement to the quiet pulse of something new stirring within you. It does not shout. It arrives softly—through the quiet click of inner truths falling into place. This is not the New Moon that asks for perfection. It asks only for your presence as you find the courage to begin, to give voice to what longs to be heard. To reimagine what is possible in places that have felt stuck, silenced, or weary. Let it take hold. As your mind awakens… your heart will begin to dream again.

Reflections…Tonight, clear your space with the ancient smoke of sage, cedar, or palo santo—let it spiral through the corners, carrying away what no longer serves. Light your candles and invite the element of fire to hold space for transformation. Gather your favorite crystals—those that speak to your spirit—and place them near, like allies for the soul. Let music fill the air, something soft and stirring, something that opens the gateway between worlds. Then…Close your eyes. Breathe deeply. Inhale the present. Exhale the past. Let your breath become a spell. Feel yourself drop gently into stillness. This is your moment to listen—to the silence, to the spaces in between, to the whisper of your own becoming.

Connect with the Element of Air…Gemini is an air sign, so consider dancing barefoot on the wind by the sea or lake, flowing through pranayama (breath) practice, or doing a sound meditation to move and release stagnant energy. Using incense or other smoke rituals during your New Moon in Gemini rituals can enhance the ambiance, elevate your senses, and help you focus your intentions.

Since this is a time for planting seeds, why not plant a…. Magickal Moon Garden

What could be more enchanting than cultivating your own Moon Garden? Honoring the moon goddess in all her glory with a fragrant & luminous evening garden. Many night-blooming flowers are white and rely on strong fragrance, rather than bright colors. Plant night-bloomers near a bedroom window, where the breeze can carry the fragrance indoors right into your dreams. 

Plant them in a circle to mimic the Moon-they look terrific alongside silver-foliaged Lambs ears and Artemisia. Illuminated only by moonlight, pale flowers and foliage add a dreamy, ethereal feeling. Place some crystals in the soil surrounding these pale beauties to energize them for meditation and spells. Do not forget when you take from a plant, to ask its permission and give thanks, an offering of water or another planting is a perfect thank you. 

Hello beautiful souls!

Prepare to bloom under May’s enchanting Flower Moon in Scorpio, a celestial event that casts a clarifying light on what truly deserves your energy. Reaching its peak brightness on May 12 at 12:56 PM ET (6:56 PM CT), this Full Moon cuts through distraction with focused intensity, urging you to let go of what no longer serves your growth. Though it reaches fullness during the day, the moonrise that evening promises a breathtaking display—you might even catch the moon glowing in soft yellow or coral hues as its light is scattered by Earth’s atmosphere.  The May Full Moon, is referred to as the Flower Moon, because it beautifully embodies the abundance and renewal of spring with the season’s explosion of blooming flowers. Mirroring nature’s blossoming, Scorpio’s influence brings emotional depth, encouraging you to reflect and reconnect with what truly matters. 

With Mercury in steady Taurus squaring off against Pluto retrograde in Aquarius, expect some mental friction. Mercury rules communication, while Pluto governs hidden truths and power dynamics—together, they stir the pot. This alignment may push you to confront outdated beliefs, unproductive thought patterns, or controlling influences that have outstayed their welcome. Consider the Flower Moon as a turning point—it may feel a bit jarring at first, but keep in mind that whatever emerges during this Flower Moon is merely the beginning of something greater and more remarkable. Whatever is coming, the Full Moon in Scorpio is here to help you step into the next chapter with fresh energy and unshakable self-belief. 

Scorpio is a sign renowned for its intensity and transformative power within the zodiac. Its unwavering water energy beckons us to dive deep into your emotions, your relationships and your career...bringing the tough stuff to the forefront, leaving no room for hiding.  Don’t shy away from her shadows, instead lean in for that is where the real transformation and magic unfolds…Because…this moon is a portal…a doorway... a threshold.  

 Each year on the May Full Moon we also honor Hecate and the Rite of Her Sacred Fires. She is a Triple Goddess as well as guardian of the Crossroads, as She can look three ways at one time.  Hecate’s themes are the moon, beginnings and magick. Hecate rules the moon and opportunities. She opens the path through which the old departs and the new enters. On this May Full Moon, She lights a torch, illuminating the way to the future. As you move through the coming changes, let the Goddess light your path. 

Blessed be ♡

Making Moon Water on the Flower Moon  

• On the night of the full moon, place a clear quartz crystal in a jar of purified water. (Can also be made by the gallon). 

• You can add edible herbs and flowers to your water, like roses for love (including self-love) or lavender for cleansing. 

• Place the vessel outside in a clear moonlit spot, making sure the jar is covered. 

• When morning arrives, your water will be charged with lunar energy. Drink a bit every morning for body, mind & soul balance. 

The moon charged waters can also be used to charge crystals, cleanse your energetic body and remove stagnant energy by use in your diffuser.

Beltane…The Festival of Love…The Dance of Life

The ancient Gaelic Festival of Beltane will awaken on May 1, heralding a time of magick, passion and renewal. With its roots deeply planted in Celtic traditions, Beltane is embraced by many modern pagans and witches as a time to honor the earth and the cycles of nature, of growth and of connectivity. The festival will officially begin on April 30th at sundown when the sacred fires of Beltane blaze once more, marking the vibrant midpoint between spring equinox and summer solstice. As the Wheel of the Year turns, Beltane stands opposite Samhain, marking the division between summer and winter, just as Ostara and Mabon separate the light and dark halves of the year. On this day, the veils thin and the faeries roam freely; it is a time for lovers' whispers, beauty rites, and secret meetings with the unseen ones. Sacred wells and shimmering ponds became portals to the Otherworld, offering visions and blessings to those willing to peer beyond the veil. Beltane is the third and most potent of the Spring Festivals.

As the sun’s power rises, Beltane weaves the sacred union of the Goddess and the God. Their divine alchemy stirs the fires of life inviting us to honor the sacred marriage of light and dark, masculine and feminine, body and spirit. Traditionally, Beltane became a time for a handfasting, with lovers blessing the earth while pledging themselves to one another. Around the vibrant Maypole, dancers wove colorful ribbons, weaving together the energies of the divine feminine and masculine in joyful harmony…because at Its heart the sabbat is a celebration of passion, pleasure, and life force itself.

Lighting fires was a central custom at Beltane. Traditionally, a Beltane fire was built using the nine sacred woods of the Celts. On Beltane Eve, all hearth fires were extinguished and rekindled the next day from the sacred "need fires" lit especially for the festival. Whether alone or entwined with another, dancing beneath the Beltane fires awakens your spirit to the wild rhythms of spring and the magick of transformation.

Now, in this sacred space between seasons, may you dance with the faeries, weave dreams into reality, and awaken your heart, spirit, and soul to the sacred fire of life."

Blessed Beltane!

Hello beautiful souls,

The New Moon in Taurus—earthy, sensual, and steeped in the divine feminine—arrives on April 27th at 3:31 PM (ET), just days after Earth Day. This beautiful synchronicity is a sacred reminder of our deep-rooted connection to the Earth. We are not separate from nature; we are intricately woven into its living tapestry. This lunation calls us to remember who we are and where we belong. Under the sacred veil of the Taurus New Moon, a portal opens.

 A holy pause… A breath between worlds.

 This lunation is a temple…earth-bound, body-led, soul-deep.  It beckons you to slow, to soften, to settle.  To return to the altar of the present moment.

Taurus calls for us to reweave our lives with what is true and lasting: Reverence for the Earth & respect for the body.  Rituals that root us in the sacredness of all life. Now is the time to anoint all layers of your being with care.  Light your candles.  Offer prayers to the stones, the waters, the trees.  Whisper to your ancestors.  Listen to your bones. This is a time of spiritual rooting.  Let your roots reach deep into the Earth’s womb.  Let this blessed Moon guide you back—not just to yourself, but to the ancient knowing that you are the Earth, and the Earth is sacred. As Earth Day ushers in this New Moon, we are reminded that our personal healing is woven into planetary healing.

Our breath is not separate from the wind, our bodies are not separate from this precious planet.
In a world that constantly pulls our attention outward, this New Moon is a soft, steady invitation to return inward—to the breath, the body, and the living Earth beneath our feet. As we move through the very real and challenging situations we are facing, may we not lose our inner sight and remember the Feminine way, the ancient rhythm that teaches us to dance with the unknown…to find stillness within and grace as we change.

This is a moment to nourish yourself on every level. Ask yourself:

• What rituals will restore your immune system?
• What sacred pauses will soothe your nervous system?
• What devotions will honor your heart and mind?

Sink into your spiritual roots. May this Earth-blessed New Moon guide you back home—to yourself, to healing, to your truth, and to the sacred pulse of the planet.

And for all you yogis reading this post, you might remember that the moon is highly related to Lord Shiva as he has a half moon on his head as a symbol. By offering prayers to Lord Shiva, and by repeating the mantra Om Namah Shivaya, you can accelerate the healing process of this new moon. 

Hello beautiful souls!!!

Another month, another Full Moon! This important Full Moon dawns on April 12^th (8:22 pm EST) in my favorite delightfully balanced air sign. When the Moon transits an astrological sign, it carries the traits of that particular sign. So, embrace the power of the Pink Moon, sweeties, because April is Libra time!!!

To all you genuine through-and through-Libra souls, there is no mistaking us! As the artists, peacemakers, and lovers of the zodiac, we live by those scales of justice, always striving for balance and harmony. Ruled by Venus, the planet of love, we are naturally drawn to connection. This moon is a gentle reminder to lead with our hearts, for at the core of it all, love is all that truly matters.

With the world being in a state of chaos, many find themselves becoming unraveled, fearful and indecisive.

It is time to ask yourself:

• In which relationships am I sacrificing my authenticity to maintain peace?
• What part of me fears being seen completely, flaws and all?
• Which emotional wounds are calling out for healing?

Now is the moment to release everything that’s disrupting your inner balance. Relationships will feel more intense, and you might find it challenging to stay your diplomatic self. This energy will be amplified just an hour later when Venus goes direct in Pisces. As Venus moves forward, it’s time to follow what truly feels right in your heart!

As the wheel of the year turns, we enter priestess season, the sacred time between the spring equinox and the summer solstice. The Libra priestess embodies awakening, emerging, and stepping into our truest, most authentic selves—living in alignment with our soul. On this healing journey, you may begin to assess your relationships, offering the perfect chance to release any cosmic clutter you've been carrying. This is not a passive moon, it’s a sacred recalibration that is spiritually destined, urging us to reflect, release, and reimagine the stories we’ve allowed ourselves to carry about love and worthiness and evolve with self-respect. This Libra Full Moon isn’t about achieving perfection—it’s about showing up as our whole, authentic selves. It offers a chance to break free from patterns that keep love at surface level and step into a deeper, more honest, and mutually fulfilling connection. Under this moonlight, we’re not being asked to fix ourselves or others; we’re being invited to explore where we can approach things differently. It’s time to create a new universe within, breaking old patterns and habits. You might know exactly what you want to achieve, or you might not—either way, don’t worry. Simply let Luna’s energy flow through your mind, body, and spirit to cleanse, heal, and recharge you... and from here, we rise.

Until next month, my loves...Stay in your magick

Candle Ritual

Light a candle with intention, and gently read your reflections aloud—whether to yourself or to the Moon. Let your voice be the witness to your own truth. Then, tear out a page or a phrase that feels like a release, and either burn it or bury it as an offering to the universe. Place one hand on your heart and speak these words:

“I choose truth and tenderness. I choose to include myself in love. I am worthy of taking up space in my relationships and in my life.”

Let this ritual be a reminder that you are safe to soften, and that your clarity is a powerful force. The healing lies in the decision to remain connected to your truth, your heart, and your sacred inner wisdom.

Hello beautiful souls… 

Welcome to the enchanting energy of the March New Moon! 

On March 29th, the Aries moon rises at 3:58 am PT/ 6:58 am ET, unveiling a celestial spectacle—doubling as both a partial solar eclipse and a supermoon. (Supermoons sit closer to Earth, intensifying their energetic pull). This powerful lunation marks the first solar eclipse of the year and the last eclipse in Aries until October 2032. The ancient wisdom of "As above, so below" resonates deeply during this time, reminding us that each New Moon acts as a cosmic download—where the Sun and Moon engage in a sacred exchange, calling us to awaken the parts of ourselves that have been buried, silenced, or patiently waiting for the right moment to emerge. 

Aries is the archetype who dares to begin before knowing how it will unfold.  The energy of this moon will ripple through our lives like a bold and fiery reset that is calling us to reclaim our will, our voice, and our right to step into our passion. Fearless and fiery, our March New Moon calls for bold leaps and renewed purposes, urging us to look within and embrace self-love as the foundation for our journey forward. Love is the sacred current that moves the universe forward, and the more we release it from within, the more we are carried by its divine flow. 

The spring season is always a time of renewal and rebirth, and Aries season is no exception. As the first sign of the zodiac, Aries is quick to act, but the retrograde planets (Mercury, Venus, and Mars still in its post-retrograde shadow) remind us that there is power in taking a step back to reflect, reconsider, and realign with our deeper truths. The fire of Aries burns away hesitation, inviting us to rewrite our identities, redefine our self-expression, and break free from outdated versions of ourselves. 

Awakening the Wild Feminine: 

With Lilith sitting in Virgo during this Aries New Moon, something deeper is awakening. Lilith represents our raw, untamed feminine; the part of us that refuses to be silenced, suppressed, or molded to fit society’s expectations. She is what Carl Jung called “The Shamanistic Anima”—She is the key to healing the soul. Aries is a force of unapologetic willpower, a sign that acts without seeking permission. Together, these cosmic forces form a divine call to rise. Together, this is an awakening of inner power, and an initiation into owning every part of who we are: unfiltered, untamed, and unapologetic. 

This is going to be a transformative time so… find your passion…set your goals… and bring that fire forth into the light of spring! 

Moon Water Ritual: Using Water as a Magickal Conduit  

Moon water is a simple yet powerful tool that absorbs the New Moon’s energy, making it a versatile medium for spiritual work. Directions: Place a jar of purified water outside or by a windowsill to absorb the New Moon’s energy overnight. To enhance its power, add herbs like mint (for clarity), basil (for abundance), or rosemary (for protection). Leave overnight, then strain. Use for: 

• Anointing – Use it to anoint your third eye, wrists, or tools before rituals. 

• Drinking – Add a few drops to tea or water to internalize the energy of the New Moon. 

• Cleansing – Use it to cleanse crystals, altars, or ritual tools. 

• Bathing – Add to your bath to create a magickal immersion experience. 

Mirror Scrying: A Portal to the Unseen 

A sacred art practiced by mystics and wise women, mirror scrying under a New Moon unveils the veiled—offering glimpses into hidden truths, forgotten dreams, and whispers from the beyond.  

As the veil thins, the mirror becomes a portal, reflecting not just your image, but the depths of your subconscious. 

1. Prepare the Sacred Space 
Enter a quiet realm-dim the lights, ignite candles, burn, or diffuse some fragrant mugwort or frankincense—awakening the senses and attuning the spirit. 

2. Choose Your Mirror 
A black mirror is ideal, as its depths absorb the unseen, but a regular mirror in a dimly lit room will also suffice. Ensure its surface is cleansed, ready to receive the messages that wish to unfold. 

3. Set Your Intention 
Whisper your purpose to the mirror, whether seeking guidance, revelation, or a glimpse of what lies ahead. Close your eyes, still your thoughts, and open your spirit to receive. 

4. Enter the Trance 
Sit with the mirror before you, at eye level. Let your gaze soften, breathing deeply as the edges of your vision blur. Surrender to the flow—do not seek, only allow. The mirror will reveal in its own time. 

5. Receive the Visions 
Shapes shift, shadows stir, and symbols emerge-Trust What You See—whether fleeting figures, shifting colors, or whispers in your mind’s eye.  

6. Seal the Portal 
When the vision fades, offer gratitude—to the mirror, to the energies that spoke to the universe itself. Ground your being—touch the earth, drink water, return fully. Cleanse the mirror with smoke or moonlight, readying it for the next journey. With time and practice, the mirror becomes more than glass—it is an oracle, a doorway, a trusted guide.

On March 20th, we celebrate the Spring Equinox and festival of Ostara- the first day of Spring in the northern hemisphere, marking the end of Winter.  Ostara is a pagan celebration of the German goddess Eostre and the origins of the Christian celebration of Easter. Eggs are symbolic of fertility and decorated to celebrate new life. Rabbits symbolize the mating of hares and are used as a totem of the moon goddess in many cultures.

This is a time of renewal...when night and day masculine/feminine, God & Goddess are in perfect balance. It is time to celebrate the rebirth of the soil and the land. The energy of this time will be heightened by the Total Lunar Eclipse/Blood Moon occurring just 6 days before on March 14^th. Although this Eclipse is almost a week from the Equinox, we tend to feel Eclipses up to a month before and a month after they arrive.

As we transition out of hibernation and into the light of spring, it is important to remember that this season also marks the awakening of the goddess. In Greek mythology it is Persephone, goddess of the soul, who is the harbinger of spring and a reminder of all the growth and hope that it brings. She promotes confidence, power, healing, and feminine mysteries...the woman who is beginning to consciously decide for herself. 

In the traditions of the Wise Woman, Ayurveda, and Magick, springtime is considered the most crucial time of the year to do a cleanse. Our bodies are the embodiment of the goddess, and it is essential to honor and care for them during this time. So, as we open our hearts to the fresh new breath of spring, let us stand in our center, plant our roots, ground ourselves, and allow the spirits of the green world to guide us to places filled with true magick. Let us embrace the season of rebirth and growth with a deep inner cleanse, reconnecting with our inner goddess and embracing the beauty of the natural world around us.

Blessed Be

"The Moon is an astonishing companion on the human journey. She both lights the way and invites us into the dark." Mother Tongue 

On March 14th, a sacred Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse will grace the night sky, radiating powerful waves of transformation. Occurring when the Earth aligns perfectly between the Sun and the Moon, a celestial veil is lifted, bathing the lunar surface in a mystical crimson glow.

Unlike typical Full Moons that symbolize culmination and release, a Blood Moon Eclipse can pull back the curtain and reveal information that is needed to take us to the next chapter of our soul evolution. While we may find ourselves confronted with something painful or uncomfortable, we can trust that this is what is needed to evolve our souls to the next level. The Moon is connected to the feminine and the womb space. It is associated with our emotions, intuition, and the darker parts of our psyche that we don’t often feel supported to explore. Under a Blood Moon, we are invited to celebrate the feminine energies that live within us all and to honor the sacredness of creation and destruction.

March’s Full Moon rises in the sign of Virgo, the archetype of the virgin whose original meaning was a free woman or a woman unto herself. She is the medicine woman, the healer, the wise woman within each of us, who knows that by healing herself she heals the world. She calls to us to recalibrate and restore as we rise into our real work. Virgo’s analytical mind calls us to realign, refine, and step more fully into our sacred purpose.

This Full Moon is the final one before the March 20th Equinox/Ostara, marking the dawn of a new astrological year. As nature awakens in renewal, so too are we invited to cleanse, reflect, and release all that no longer serves us. The fertile energy of this moon supports the manifestation of our deepest desires—so long as our intentions are rooted in love, integrity, and the highest good of all.

On this luminous night, as you stand beneath the moon’s radiant glow, open your heart to the presence of the Goddess. She is in the wind, the stars, the earth beneath your feet—an eternal force of creation and wisdom. Let her light fill you, guide you, and remind you of your own divine power. Wherever you are, take this moon’s magick into your soul, and listen to the truth it whispers.

Rituals for the Blood Moon

• Protection rituals for difficult transitions
• Rituals to heal and let go of the past
• Rituals to set powerful new beginnings
• Meditation for 3rd eye awakening…lighting a new path

Our Favorite Full Moon Goddesses:

• Cerridwen (Celtic): Keeper of knowledge and intuition. She represents wisdom and inspiration. Also known as a Goddess of the Underworld.
• Selene (Greek): More than just a lunar goddess, she is the embodiment of the moon and its light
• And of Course-Yemaya (Yoruba): Moon Goddess of the ocean, water and tides and my Mother Goddess

With you in Sacred Sisterhood, Debbi

The New Moon returns on February 27th at 7:45 pm ET, a celestial whisper calling us into the unseen, into the shimmering depths of magick and mystery. 

In astrology, the cosmic year concludes in the ethereal waters of Pisces, dissolving the boundaries we’ve built and opening a portal to infinite possibilities. It’s a sacred pause—a sacred threshold before Eclipse Season begins—a time when the veils thin, when dreams weave with reality, and when destiny stirs in the cosmic tide. 

This is a time to pause, take a deep breath, and allow ourselves the sacred space to reflect on all we've moved through over the past twelve months. The secret to this New Moon's magick? It’s ruler Neptune, the planet of spirituality, mystery and transcendence. Pisces energy is all about delving deeper. Be prepared, my darlings, it takes courage to dive deep into the murky waters of the shadows. But when you do? You will be just where you need to be. 

Mystical and magickal—Pisces, the sign of intuition and transcendence, invites us to embrace our vulnerability, honor our deepest emotions, and reconnect with our innermost desires. During this time, we are called to listen to our intuition with kindness and to hold space for ourselves as we gently move away from what no longer resonates with our soul's frequency and reconnect with our innate spirituality and wisdom. 

The New Moon offers a sanctuary—a moment of quiet renewal before Aries season ignites new beginnings. As we stand at the threshold of transformation, we are reminded that we are all shifting into a new chapter of reality, and this lunation opens the door. In Pisces, we surrender and allow the currents of the universe to guide us effortlessly downstream. Let the goddess of the moon bathe you in Her healing light, purifying your spirit and restoring your essence. Resolve to live with greater heart, purpose, and joy. Open yourself to the magick of this sacred water season—it is here to cleanse, renew, and awaken your soul. Light your candles and set your intentions. The magick is real. The portal is open. Are you ready to step through?  

New Moon Rituals 

Selene is THE goddess of the moon, and her powers are unmatched, as far as lunar goddesses go. She is considered the symbol of femininity and has the power to inspire love and pierce through illusion. It is said that honoring Selene will favor one with the ability to awaken intuition and bring forth psychic visions. Drawing the energy of Selene can help us get clear on our intentions. 

Drawing Down the Moon Goddess 

Stand and raise your arms above your head. Let your palms face each other and curve slightly toward the moon. Feel as though you are a sacred chalice, drawing the power of Mother Moon into every cell of your being—from your toes to your womb, to your breasts, to your jaw, and your eyes. Feel the pleasure of this energy. It is vibrant with the power to give, to receive, to nurture life, and manifest what is possible. Draw your hands to your heart. And under the moon, dance with the rhythms of life like the goddess you truly are. When you are ready, bring your hands to your sides, palms facing the earth. Send your divine light deep into the earth. 

Creating a Ritual Altar to start the New Year 

Start with the 4 seasons and add accordingly during the year with seasonal embellishments, meaningful trinkets, statues, oils & more. 

• Earth: crystals, flowers, or stones
• Fire: a lit candle
• Air: incense, white sage, or a feather
• Water: a bowl or vase of water or a seashell 

Arrange them in the direction of the elements: Fire in the South, Water in the West, Air in the East, and Earth in the North.

The Aquarian New Moon opened a portal for breaking free from convention, embracing the unexpected, and stepping boldly into a future of limitless possibilities. It was a cosmic call to dream bigger, shatter boundaries, and reimagine the world as we know it. Now, as the Full Moon in Leo rises on February 12 at 8:54 a.m. EST/5:54 a.m. PT, the energy shifts to something even more luminous—a beckoning to ignite the flames of heart-centered courage and bask in the light of your personal power.

Yet, this Full Moon is not just about your inner transformation; it’s an invitation to honor your soul’s unique mission on this planet. Uranus, the celestial wildcard, weaves its magick through this lunation, bringing the gift of liberating disruption. Time to reflect on what no longer serves you and trust that these shifts, however unexpected, are part of a divine design meant to set you free. Know that these cosmic tremors are awakening breakthroughs, guiding you toward the vibrant, authentic life your soul has always envisioned.

There are moments in life when the universe whispers our name, calling us to step boldly into the light and unapologetically claim our space, our desires, and our divine essence. This is one of those moments. February's enchanting Snow Moon arrives, igniting a fiery momentum just in time for Valentine’s Day—a perfect cosmic pairing, as over-the-top romance falls effortlessly under Leo’s regal and passionate domain.

What makes the force of this union so special is that this is also the Year of the Wood Snake, a symbol steeped in ancient mysticism. In the sacred temples of old, snakes coiled in the presence of goddesses, embodying both sensuous enchantment and shadowy wisdom. The snake has long been a guardian of divine feminine power—seductive and mysterious, yet fiercely intelligent and transformative. As we awaken in the throes of patriarchal dominance, we are called to awaken and reclaim this sacred, serpentine force within us.

Graceful and intentional, the snake embodies the ancient wisdom of the Divine Feminine. She moves quietly yet powerfully, flowing with intuitive knowing and unshakable confidence. She recognizes her worth and her innate magic, needing no external validation. At ease within her everchanging form, she sheds old skins with purpose, embracing transformation as a natural rhythm of life and growth.

Under the luminous influence of Leo, the sign of the heart, we are urged to shift into heart-centered awareness. This is the moment to let the fire of passion rise through your chakras, unlocking the heart chakra—the sacred epicenter of love, courage, and creation. With your heart fully open, step into the new paths you envisioned under the first stirrings of spring. Like the snake, move forward with grace and wisdom, knowing that every shift and every shedding brings you closer to your most authentic and radiant self.

The stronger your connection to the full moon, the more open your heart chakra. It's all about LOVE. Now’s the time to visualize that soulmate! And for those uncoupled loves this moon offers the perfect time in which to practice self-love. You carry so much love in your heart, give some to yourself.

Remember, in order to love others and be loved, you need to first love yourself. When our heart chakra is open, we are ready to stand in the center of trust, balance, and beautiful oneness with the universe. As witches know, the Full Moon is an excellent time to infuse plans with extra-shimmery faerie dust, so go ahead and shine! The world is shifting — and you, with your unique spark, are a vital part of that transformation. Trust that things will spring forth when the moment is right. Let yourself be carried away to places filled with true magick as we prepare for spring.

Tonight, take a moment to bask in the enchanting glow of La Luna—dance beneath her light, and let your brilliance shine like the diamond you truly are.

Yoga Love Leo links both spine and heart, starting with the yogic idea that life force—that sexy kundalini energy—rests at the base of the spine. As we open our hearts, using breath, movement, and creative expression, kundalini can slowly rise into the heart. Standing and heart opening asanas will help the energy flow. And if you are feeling a bit playful add Dancer’s pose to your sequence.
