Welcome, beautiful souls,

On August 23rd, the New Moon roots itself in Virgo’s sacred soil, calling you back to the wisdom of your body and the heartbeat of the Earth. This is root chakra magic—nourishment, grounding, and weaving safety into your spirit.

Virgo arrives as the cosmic Priestess, handing you a broom of stardust to sweep away the old. Each sweep clears space for the seeds you plant now to thrive under future moons. This is your mystical reset—see with lunar clarity, release what weighs you down, and anchor into what truly supports you. Under this New Moon, you are both the gardener and the seed.

The Virgo constellation is said to honor Persephone, maiden goddess of the harvest and Queen of the underworld. Persephone moves gracefully between two worlds—one foot in life, the other in the quiet of death. Her dual existence mirrors the eternal cycles of growth, decay, and renewal, offering a powerful blueprint for magick and shamanic practice. Through her, we learn to embrace endings as gateways to beginnings, to honor the hidden mysteries as deeply as the blossoming light, and to walk the delicate path between shadow and radiance with courage and grace.

Virgo’s symbol, “The Maiden,” embodies pure intention, clarity of purpose, and the courage to seek one’s true path. In today’s world, this archetype is being reclaimed—not as a symbol of submission, but as a declaration of independence. The Maiden is unbound by patriarchal expectations and aligned with her own wild, authentic power. She is a Wild Woman who refuses to conform, who creates her own definitions of femininity and sexuality, and who thrives in freedom, self-determination, and the sacred authority of her own being.

This new vision invites Virgos to reclaim themselves and release anything that doesn’t feel aligned. Known as perfectionists, Virgos naturally notice the details and hold high standards—not out of rigidity, but because they know exactly how they want things to unfold and are willing to do the work to make it happen. Virgo is also the archetype of the healer, the medicine woman who nurtures herself and others. While the instinct to care for everyone else is strong, this is a call to focus on yourself and allow space for imperfection and self-compassion.

Whether through meditation, yoga, or a ritual bath, carve sacred moments for yourself each day. Tuning into breathwork will be extremely helpful as the kundalini shakti moves through us, transiting to higher consciousness. Let go and fall in love with being imperfect … as that is divine perfection. Let go of what a perfect future looks like and instead focus on what it is.  And as the wheel turns toward the darker season, embrace your power to transform, shift, and step fully into your own radiant path. 

Herbs for the Virgo Moon: Chamomile, Frankincense, Cedar.

Crystals for the Virgo Moon: Selenite, Picture Jasper, Lapis Lazuli, Carnelian, Chrysocolla, Fluorite, Moss Agate

Virgo New Moon Tea... Brew this tea on the 3 days of the new moon & focus on your intentions while you sip. Blend equal parts of raspberry leaf, nettle leaf, linden flower, cinnamon, lemon, and rose petals or hips. Steep and sweeten if desired with honey or stevia.

Enjoy this Blessed Virgo New Moon, my loves!

Hello beautiful souls

On Saturday, August 9th, the Sturgeon Moon rises in the unconventional sign of Aquarius, stirring ancient magick and rebellious dreams. Named by fishing tribes for the sturgeon most abundant this time of year, it’s also known as the Green Corn Moon, Full Red Moon, and Hungry Ghosts Moon, each name echoing old Earth and spirit lore.

The Goddess Moon Rises — A Full Moon of Sacred Feminine Power & Spirit Medicine

Under the visionary sign of Aquarius, many Goddess asteroids are active now-Chariklo, Ceres, Makemake, Black Moon Lilith, Vesta, and Juno—all awakening, weaving their sacred magick across the night sky. At the heart of this lunar magick stands Chariklo, the spirit medicine keeper and wife of Chiron. Her presence delivers healing vibrations straight into our hearts, opening portals of deep renewal and soulful remembrance. She whispers of ancient ways, of sacred waters that cleanse and restore the wild, untamed essence within. This is a return to the womb of cosmic wisdom, a return to our maternal wisdom, and the time to stand in the shimmering light of the Divine Feminine and receive the medicine of wholeness.

With the Goddess asteroids awakened, this Goddess Moon calls you to gather your sacred healing tools. The energies of vibrational medicine and plant magick, woven into the essence of these divine feminine archetypes, are amplified now. Crystals, herbs, sound, and water become conduits for lunar enchantment.

It’s time to take stock of your spirit medicine. Crystals can also aid in the journey. Sodalite and Amethyst will open your third eye, igniting visions and inner knowing, while Red Jasper and Smoky Quartz ground your energy deep into the Earth’s heartbeat. Rose Quartz, soft and powerful, cradles the heart, teaching self-love and forgiveness. And Moonstone—the gem of lunar priestesses—awakens your inner Goddess, guiding you to flow with divine feminine power. If you feel weary, burnt out, or simply craving restoration, know that the cleansing light of this Full Moon will magnify the potency of every healing ritual. Immerse yourself in a sound bath, sip a delicious herbal elixir, or anoint yourself with sacred oils. Charge your intentions into some moon water and drink them into being…tend your garden, lose yourself in painting, meditate beneath the stars—every act becomes a spell under this moon.

There is no right or wrong way to honor this Full Moon. The divine feminine doesn’t demand perfection—only presence. Trust your inner compass. Let your intuition be your Oracle, as Goddess’ wisdom always whispers: you already know the way.

The Aquarius Full Moon and Lion’s Gate

One day before the August Full Moon peaks, we experience the Lion’s Gate Portal. This portal celebrates the rising of Sirius as it is reborn and returns to its position in our sky. It is believed that when Sirius rises into the sky, lost information and technologies will slowly be revealed to us. This ancient wisdom has been forgotten, but it can return to our consciousness through the opening of this sacred portal.

If we are open to the divine synchronicities of the Universe, the Full Moon working in tandem with this portal will carry you away to places filled with true magick.

Namaste' my goddesses!

As the lush greens of summer transition into the golden tones of late July and early August, the Wheel of the Year brings us to Lughnasadh (pronounced LOO-nah-sah), which marks the 1st of the trio of harvest festivals in pagan and Wiccan practices, followed by Mabon (Sept.21) and Samhain (Oct.31). Celebrated annually on August 1st in the Northern Hemisphere, this festival marks the halfway point between Litha, the Summer Solstice and Mabon, the Fall Equinox.  Known also as Lammas or the Bread Harvest, it is a day to give thanks for the first fruits of the season, a time for community gatherings, and a moment to honor Lugh, the Celtic god of light and craftsmanship. So, is it known as Lammas or Lughnasadh? Actually, it is both! Lammas is the Christianized version of the holiday, and Lughnasadh is the original Celtic name. No matter what you call it, this is a time to celebrate nature’s bounty, give thanks for all that we have, and set our intention for the rest of the year. 

The Goddess is now in Her aspect as Grain Mother, Harvest Mother, Harvest Queen, Earth Mother, Ceres, and Demeter. Earlier civilizations used the day to thank the waning Sun for the wealth of the wheat harvest and bestow gratitude to the earth mother for the provided sustenance. And best of all, the translation of this holiday’s name literally means “Loafmass or "loaf feast.” Like a holiday about bread!! 

We are encouraged today to take stock of our personal development, acknowledge what has been accomplished, and identify areas where either growth is needed or releasing what no longer serves us. Traditional Lughnasadh rituals often revolve around sacrifice and offering. You might create an altar adorned with seasonal vegetation, symbols of the god Lugh, and harvest-related tools like scythes and sickles. Ritualistic games and athletic competitions are also a staple, celebrating the skill and might of Lugh. Today’s modern practices may also include crafting, divination, and rituals that focus on personal growth and prosperity. 

 As we move through harvest, the turning of the wheel will bring both inner and outer gifts and insights to you. May the rest of your summer shimmer with bountiful delights. 

With love & magick, Debbi 

Rituals, Symbols & Things to Do 

• · Gods & Goddesses: Lugh, Ceres, Demeter, Dionysus, Cerridwen. 

• · Flowers & Herbs: fennel, sunflower, basil, honeysuckle, rosemary, 

•  Food: grains, bread, berries, grapes, wine. 

•  Crystals: carnelian, citrine, tiger’s eye, amber 

• ·Create a Lammas Altar-objects, crystals, seasonal plants 

•  Bake a fresh loaf of bread 

•  Have a seasonal feast with family and friends 

Creating an Herb Pouch for Abundance 

Gather the following: 

• A green candle 

• tbsp each of dried basil and dried peppermint 

• Cinnamon stick 

• Peridot stone 

• 1 green pouch with a string to tie it up 

Light your candle while centering yourself. Now add each dried herb, the stone, and the cinnamon stick. Peppermint brings abundance and prosperity, while Basil brings abundance and success. Cinnamon...strength and lastly Peridot...earth energy & wealth. Now tie up your pouch, hold it to your heart center, close your eyes, and say: Abundance and prosperity I wish to see...energy of the earth brings these gifts onto me. Close the ritual by acknowledging the Harvest Goddess as you allow your candle to burn down.  

Craft your Lammas Altar 

Crafting an altar is a wonderful way to honor the essence of Lammas/  Lughnasadh. Decorate it with symbols of harvest such as grains, flowers, or corn. Include items that represent abundance and gratitude, such as a white candle nestled in a bowl of rose hips to thank the ancestors. On mine? I plan to add a statue of the Mother Goddess made from straw...a gift from a beloved student.  Add a few shimmering tealight candles to evoke the vibrant energy of the season.  

Hello beautiful souls,

Throughout history, the New Moon has been revered as a time for renewal and ritual. Ancient Egyptians saw the New Moon as a symbol of rebirth, while the Greeks linked it to the goddess Hecate, who governs mysteries, witches, crossroads, and the unseen. In Celtic/Pagan traditions, the New Moon was a time for planting crops, both literal and metaphorical. 

And so it is… the New Moon returns, this time in the bold, heart-led sign of Leo on July 24th at 3:10pm EST. If you’ve ever known a Leo, you know they naturally gravitate toward the spotlight — they were born to shine. Ruled by the Sun, they radiate warmth, confidence, loyalty, and a touch of irresistible glamour.

Leo also rules the 5th house. In astrology, the 5th house is associated with whatever makes us feel good, whether it's orgasms, attention, or fulfilling a creative project. 

Let this New Moon be your invitation to follow what truly lights you up. The lion teaches us to trust our gifts, to walk with radiant self-belief, and to cheer for ourselves like royalty. Though the moon is cloaked in shadow, your soul is ready to glow. Feel who you are, feel who you’re becoming, and honor every wild and wondrous part of your being. Now is the moment — act on your dreams, recharge your inner flame, and let your heart lead the way.

Because…

This New Moon is a portal. A threshold. An offering of transformation, self-reclamation, empowerment, and reawakening… occurring about a week before the Lion’s Gate’s portal, which is all about our HEART activation. 

Even though retrograde planets, Saturn and Mercury, will have us second-guessing our goals while dealing with communication lapses, there will be moments of reflection, contemplation, and passion as Leo rules the heart space, reminding us of the importance of self-love, joy, and authenticity. If you’ve stopped articulating your desires or sharing your feelings, that ends now. Focus on practices that nurture your heart and reignite your inner fire.

Until next time…New Moon Blessings…Keep Shining

 Crystal Rituals and Crystal Grids: Enhancing Manifestation

Crystals are natural amplifiers of energy. When used in conjunction with New Moon energies, they can enhance the manifestation of your intentions.

You can create a New Moon crystal grid on your altar. Select a central stone that aligns with your core intention, such as citrine for abundance, rose quartz for love, or amethyst for spiritual growth. Surround the central stone with supporting stones arranged in a geometric pattern that represents your desires.

• For abundance, use a circular or pentagonal pattern.
• For love, arrange the crystals in a heart shape or infinity loop.
• For protection, opt for a triangular shape.

Charge the grid by hovering your hands above it, sensing the energy weaving between your palms and the stones. Visualize your intentions strengthening as the crystals absorb and magnify your magic.

Hello beautiful souls… 

As the summer sun lingers in the sky and the earth hums with life, July 10th brings the Buck Moon in Capricorn, an illumination that cuts through the heart of summer with serious emotional weight and impact on society. Also known as the Thunder Moon, Hay Moon, Wort Moon, and Mead Moon, this midsummer lunation isn’t a delicate moon. This moon doesn’t coddle—it commands. It awakens the wild instinct within, urging you to stand tall, claim your space, and fiercely protect what’s sacred. A celestial threshold of transformation, it offers a potent invitation for inner growth, rooted renewal, and soul-deep strength. So light your ritual candles, stir your potions, and circle your crystals—because the Buck Moon brings more than light. It brings power, purpose, and a reminder that your magick is not meant to be small. 

July opened not with a whisper but a conjuration—on the 1st, Lilith slipped into retrograde in Pisces, stirring the cauldron of our deepest emotional and spiritual undercurrents. This isn’t surface-level astrology; it’s a sacred excavation. Lilith, the Dark Divine Feminine, now peers through the veil, unearthing forgotten truths, ancestral imprints, and the buried bones of shame, guilt, and repression. She calls us not to fear the dark, but to dance with it—to reclaim the power we once exiled. 

Enter the Buck Moon in Capricorn, rising on July 10th with a potent, grounding force. Capricorn—the tenth sign of the zodiac—is no ordinary beast. The Sea Goat, part determined climber, part soul swimmer, holds the ancient knowledge of dual mastery: scaling life’s mountains with relentless ambition, while diving into the watery depths of emotion where intuition becomes prophecy. This archetype reminds us that true power comes from balancing structure with spirit, effort with inner knowing. And in the chaos of today’s ever-shifting world, it is time to move with the Moon through all Her phases—because “the spiral dance of the monthly lunar cycle is where the juice of revolution, transformation, and magick lives for us.” 

Capricorn’s wisdom now urges a shedding of outdated paradigms and stagnant energies. The Lilith retrograde amplifies this, encouraging us to release karmic clutter and rewrite stories born of guilt, repression, and silence. It’s a mystical detox—a sacred unraveling—meant to clear the path for something bolder and more aligned. Think of it as soul-deep closet cleaning: if it doesn’t fit your truth or elevate your journey, it must go.  

Under this lunation, a new era beckons—one of wise, heart-led, collaborative leadership rising from the ashes. You are not just healing for yourself, but for your lineage, your community, and the collective field of possibility. 

So gather your tools: 

• Light the candles. 
• Cleanse your altar. 
• Speak to the spirits. 
• And meet the Moon as both student and sorcerer. 

Because this Buck Moon doesn’t just shine—it initiates. And you? 

You are the spell, the spark, and the revolution… 

Full Moon Tea Ritual 

Set up your ritual space by placing things around you and/or your altar that help make you feel connected to the moon’s energies. You can incorporate fresh flowers, crystals, photos, candles, or any other sacred objects you feel called to. Finally, cleanse & purify the air by burning some Palo Santo, Sage, or Copal. 

Now, find a comfortable place to sit and begin to ground yourself by taking deep, slow breaths. Focus on what you wish to change in your life, what you wish to balance…then write it down on a piece of paper. 

Place your herbs in the jar and fill it with boiled water. Place your steeping herbs in the full moonlight if you have access to it (otherwise, in your sacred space is great). If you have crystals you’d like to incorporate, place them directly against your jar to infuse your moon tea with the energy of your stones & for a bit more power, add a clear quartz to the steeping herbs. Thank the goddess and leave overnight.  Drink your moon tea throughout the next day (or two), and every time you take a sip, come back to your intention 

Yoga Sequence 

Since moon time is special to yogi’s (after all Lord Shiva himself has a half moon on his head as a symbol), we’ve designed a little sequence to lift our vibration and connect our bodies and hearts to the frequency of the full moon…breathing 10 breaths in each pose… 

Hero’s Pose (Virasana)… Mountain Pose (Tadasana)… Chair pose (Utkatasana)… Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II) …Tree Pose (Vrkshasana) 

The knees are most associated with Capricorn. Also affected is the skeleton, all bones.

Ready to feel it all? June’s New Moon rises in the sign of Cancer—the moon’s sacred home and the heart of divine feminine energy. This is not just any moon-it’s a soul-soaked reset, steeped in intuition, emotional truth, and deep inner wisdom. At 6:31 a.m. ET on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, the moon slips into the darkening shadows, sweeping the slate clean and inviting you to begin again, with heart wide open and spells ready to cast.

As the Summer Solstice ignites the longest day of the year, we cross the threshold into Cancer season—a time when the Sun warms the watery realms of emotion, intuition, and inner magick. From June 20 to July 22, we move with the energy of the crab, sacred guardian of the tides, who teaches us the power of carrying our sanctuary within-the crab literally carries its home wherever it goes. This isn’t about retreating into stillness for the sake of escape; it’s about coming home to yourself. Cancer’s message this year is clear: honor what’s in your heart, tend to your emotional world, and create your own sacred inner space. Now is the time to weave spells of comfort, intention, and emotional sovereignty. Let this season be a cosmic reset—an invitation to feel before acting, to listen before leaping, and to nourish the parts of you that the world cannot shake. Your strength isn’t in rushing ahead, it’s in the sacred space you create within.

This Cancer Moon casts a potent spell, amplified by Jupiter’s return to its watery home. It’s a call to rise in soft power—through empathy, emotional strength, and fierce, radiant compassion. This is magick that doesn’t retreat from chaos—it illuminates it. The last time Jupiter swam in the tides of Cancer was in 2013, a “13” year of feminine awakening. Seeds were planted then. Now, it’s time to nourish what’s ready to bloom.

This is a time to enchant your intentions, charge your space with care, and trust your emotional intelligence as the most powerful tool in your magick kit. A time to dive deep into the waters of self-love...embody the Feminine Divine...reclaiming her body, her voice, her wisdom, and her power. The message of the crab is to recognize what is in your heart and create your own sacred inner space. Remember, when the heart is fully open, love flows freely. Gifting yourself a day of self-care could reveal itself to be magickal. The journey ahead is full of enlightenment and love.

Light a candle, place your hand over your heart, and speak your truth into the stillness. The moon is listening—and the magick is already unfolding. Happy New Moon!!!

Saltwater Aura Cleanse Ritual

If you’re near the sea, step into the saltwater wearing light blue—Cancer’s calming hue—and let the waves do their work. At home, draw a warm bath with sea salt. No tub? No problem. Fill a deep bowl with saltwater and use your hands to gently splash it over your body and aura. As you do, envision a shimmering crab shell forming around you—cleansing, shielding, and restoring. Feel the Moon’s soft power flow through you, dissolving heaviness and returning you to center.

Emerge refreshed, rebalanced, and magickally renewed.

Moon Water Ritual: 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.

Place a jar of purified water outside or by a windowsill to absorb the New Moon’s energy overnight. To enhance its power, harvest some of the seasonal herbs blooming now… mint (for clarity), basil (for abundance), or rosemary (for protection) as some ideas. 

Use just as you would Full Moon water—with intention and reverence. This oil carries the energy of new beginnings, making it perfect for setting intentions, clearing space, and calling in fresh magick.

• Drinking – Add a drop to water or tea to embody your intentions.
• Cleansing – Use to purify crystals, altars, or sacred objects.
• Bathing – Add to your bath for a powerful, lunar-infused ritual of renewal.

Programming a crystal is the sacred act of imprinting stone with your intention.
Crystals are more than minerals—they are memory keepers, energy amplifiers, and silent sentinels of your will. When charged with purpose, they hold your thoughts, feelings, and visions like a living spell—until you choose to release them.

Below is one ritual of many. Trust your magic. There is no single path through the sacred.

You Will Need:

• A crystal or stone that calls to you
• Clear intention 
• A quiet moment free from distraction
• Your presence and your breath

The Ritual:

Step One — Cleanse the Vessel
Before any ritual work begins, purify your crystal. Use smoke, moonlight, saltwater, or sound—whatever cleansing ritual resonates with you. Then, settle at your altar or sacred space. Let this be a place where the mundane slips away.

Step Two — The Meeting of Energy
Hold the crystal in your dominant hand—the hand of giving. Close your eyes. Let your thoughts fall away like sand through fingers. Let your breath anchor you. Begin to feel the pulse of your intention. Name it. Know it.

Step Three — Speak the Spell
Whisper your intention aloud. Let your words shape the unseen. Speak them gently, like wind over water. If you seek calm, say: peace…peace…peace of mind… Repetition creates rhythm. Rhythm creates resonance. The crystal listens.

Step Four — Anchor the Energy
Now, speak the same intention into your receiving hand (your non-dominant hand), then place it over the crystal. Let the energy pass from hand to stone. Imagine your words becoming light, sinking into the crystal… like rain into soil.

Step Five — Seal the Spell
Continue this transfer of energy until you feel a shift. A hum. A sense of settling. You’ll know when it’s complete—the way you know a candle’s flame has done its work. When the time feels right, open your hands. Offer gratitude to the crystal for its service. The programming is now complete.

Crystal Companions
This ritual works not only for natural points but for spheres, tumbled stones, clusters, and raw mineral pieces. The form is less important than the intention.

To Awaken the Spell
When it’s time to call forth the crystal’s energy, hold it or gently rub it, and ask—aloud or silently—for it to release what it holds. Your energy will activate its memory.

Let your crystal be a mirror of your magic, a holder of dreams, and a companion on your path. 

Summer Solstice – also called Litha  – is the longest day of the year in the Northern hemisphere. The word "solstice" itself is derived from the Latin words "sol," meaning sun, and "sistere," meaning to stand still. This name reflects that the sun pauses in its journey across the sky during the solstice before changing direction. The summer solstice holds great cultural and spiritual significance. Ancient temples like Stonehenge and Chichen Itza were aligned to this celestial moment, honoring the Sun’s power and the mystery of the light. 

This solar event is one of 8 Wiccan sabbats that mark the turning of the Wheel of the Year. It is heat and light and flame and dancing, burgeoning energy.  Our neighbors to the south are seeing a stark difference: Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year.  While Yule honors the birth/return of the Sun, Litha begins the cycle towards less and less light each day. 

Litha, the Midsummer celebration on the Pagan and Wiccan wheel, marks the sun’s zenith—a time when Earth is lush, bursting with life, and humming with magick. Nature stands fully awakened, the days long and golden, and the veil between spirit and soil grows deliciously thin. Fire crackles, flowers bloom like spells unfolding, and the air itself feels alive with mystery. It is a sacred time to honor the sun god or goddess, to revel in abundance, passion, and the wild enchantment that dances in every shadow and flame

Litha invites us to dance with the faeries, offer gratitude for the abundance around us, burn away the old, and set powerful intentions with fire and passion. Bonfires, herbs, and solar symbols guide our rituals. It is a time for love spells, creative bursts, and offerings to the Sun and Earth.

Embrace the vibrant energy of this celestial event and allow it to inspire you to live in harmony with nature and celebrate the abundance of life. Let this Solstice be your turning point. 

Until next time, wishing you a beautiful and inspired Solstice! Shine Brightly!

With infinite love, ~Debbi

Celebrate the Herbal Way

Now is the perfect time to connect with green magick. Herbs are now at their peak as well, both magickally & therapeutically. So, gather them up, cut that St. John’s Wort (the steeped flowers produce a gorgeously ruby healing oil!) and let the light, love & plant world fill you up.

What are your plans for Litha?  Dancing around the fire to conjure the magick of this midsummer night? Communing with the faeries?  Or making a flower crown...cause who doesn't like wearing one of those!

Hello Magickal Beings!!!

I love the moon…As females, we feel innately called to her. She is magick and beauty, reflecting the wild woman who lives in each of us. On June 11th, get ready to embrace the vibrant energy of the Strawberry Moon!

The Strawberry Moon gets its name from the season when strawberries reach their peak bloom. Known as the Rose Moon due to the vibrant blooms of roses, it’s also referred to as the Honeymoon, signaling the beginning of the honey harvesting season. All the names point to the lingering sweetness around us currently. In Lore, this moon is also known as the Faerie Moon, ripe with magick, as the ability for communication with the faerie world is strong now. 

The Spiritual Meaning of the Strawberry Moon

Spiritually, the Strawberry Moon is all about the energy of strawberries, symbolizing love, abundance, and renewal. The strawberry was a symbol for Venus, the Goddess of Love, due to its heart shape and red color. It should come as no surprise, then, that love, passion, and heart-centered energy are a central theme of the moon and the month. This is your opportunity to let go of what no longer benefits you and create room for love, joy, and all the wonderful experiences you’re prepared to welcome with the Summer Solstice and Cancer season on June 20.

June arrives cloaked in the energy of the goddess Juno—protector of women, guardian of marriage, and fierce force of transformation. The winds of change are stirring, and this moon, ruled by truth-seeking Sagittarius, does not whisper—it roars. It calls on us to shed illusions, to stretch beyond comfort, and to question what we thought we knew. This is not a season for small dreams. Luna’s silvery gaze invites us to walk boldly into becoming, to trust the alchemy of risk, and to meet our potential with open hearts and untamed wonder. Last month’s moon had us dance with our shadows; now, the light asks us to rise. Under this truth-lit sky, remember: if the dream lives within you, it’s already halfway real.

This is one of the sweetest full moons of the year. Go out and enjoy the sweetness that nature provides, and most of all, let love flow all around you.

A Lovely Ritual for some June Moon Magick: 

June's Full Moon is a time for protection, making decisions, personal strength, love, and fertility. Charge a bowl of strawberries under the light of the full moon and consume them the following day to possess the power of the moon inside you.

“Light a few pink & white candles…make a circle of flowers and strawberries…sit or stand in the circle visualizing them protecting you…know that you are safe and relaxed… breathing deeply, close your eyes and feel the power of the moon pouring into your circle into you.”

Strawberry Full Moon Ritual Wash

Fill a medium-sized tub with fresh water taken from either the ocean, a lake, a river, or simply rainwater. Add seasonal flowers, strawberry leaves if available, and any preferred herbs. Leave the bowl outside in the sun for the day. At night, as the sun goes down, form a circle of candles around you and dip your hands in the bowl, start brushing your hands in a downwards motion from your head along your entire body. While cleansing, think about the changes you are making, and are experiencing...the purpose is to let the light and warmth inside you merge with the moon’s energies. Once done, step out of your circle and end the ritual. Do not forget to blow out the candles!!!

June 8th is World Ocean Day. It is amazing to comprehend the vast power of the sea and the goddesses that reside within, like my mother, Yemaya…they create, destroy, ebb, and flow...just like life itself. The ocean is not just a backdrop to our lives; it’s the breath of the Earth, a source of food, healing, and balance. Saving our seas means protecting this sacred rhythm, so future generations can still hear its whispers, feel its power, and be shaped by its beauty. 

Yemaya: Mother of the Ocean, Guardian of Life…She is the revered Yoruba matriarch of the sea, women, motherhood, and fertility. She embodies unconditional love, deep self-acceptance, and nurturing energy for all who call upon her. Her waters cleanse not only the body, but the soul. 

Glimmering with shimmering starlight...the ocean will always be home.  It is magickal, calling something within us, and we forget all our worries. When facing the sea, my mind becomes calm to the point of whispering, thinking, if at all. I need nothing else and nothing more during the moments I am with her. So I stare into Mother Ocean joyfully, knowing I am complete.  

Align yourself with the wildness of the water and benefit from its powers of healing, magick, and renewal.  When life closes in & we feel as if we are drowning, She is there to remind us that water supports us; we do not need to go under... 

And to honor the Goddess Herself 

Yemaya Sacred Ritual Perfume 
The rich & sultry scent of sandalwood, vanilla & vetiver is layered with the lingering tones of ylang ylang with lilac and honeysuckle essences. And if that isn't decadent enough, the whole mélange is infused with a delicious chypre. These particular oils always speak to me individually, but together they sing in perfect harmony!
