The time of the Full Cold Moon in Cancer is almost upon us! Last month when I wrote about the Full Mourning Moon in Gemini, I quoted an article by Sara Coughlin over at the relatively non-pagan site, Refinery29. I figured I'd take a peek and see if she'd written anything for this full moon,... Continue Reading →
I had such high hopes for Yule this year. Even though I'm still recovering from surgery, I thought I'd be far enough along at this point to plan a family meal, set up a simple ritual, and sit back to enjoy celebrating the return of the sun. However, my body had other plans - no... Continue Reading →
On Friday, December 11th, the Dark Sagittarius Moon occurs. Since my astrology skills are still rusty, I turned to a couple of websites for information to create my graphic. I figured I'd share the most helpful bits below - A simple overview, from YOGANONYMOUS New moons generally turn our attention to new beginning since they... Continue Reading →
Back by popular demand! Here is another free Tarot reading, 12-2 version (for December 2nd - I have to think of a clever way to differentiate the names of my posts). Here is a picture of the three cards I drew, from my Universal Waite Tarot Deck. Pick the one that resonates with you, then... Continue Reading →
Tonight is the depressingly titled, but very seasonally appropriate Full Mourning Moon in Gemini. I found the best explanation of this particular moon at an unexpectedly place - Refinery29 (yeah, the fashion and style website - I was wicked surprised too!). The article is called, Why You Should Care About Tomorrow's Full Moon by Sara... Continue Reading →
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 →
A week from today, Wednesday November 11th at 12:47pm EST the Dark Scorpio Moon arrives (also known as the New Moon in Scorpio). According to the site, Cafe Astrology, the Dark Scorpio Moon is a good time for - taxes, accounting, intimacy issues, psychological examinations, research, self-examination, getting rid of old things. I plan to... Continue Reading →
It's almost here! Samhain, the most magical and witchy day of the Wheel of the Year arrives on October 31st. Yes, the same day as Halloween (which I'll talk about for this Friday's Fandom post), but for witches and many pagans, this is the end of the old year, and the beginning of the new....

October 27th, 2015 at 8:05am (EST) is the Super Full Hunter's Moon in Taurus. It's also the last of the Super Moons for 2015. Here's a bit more information about Super Moons from The Alabama Media Group - August's full moon (No. 4) was also a supermoon but was overshadowed by September's full moon on... Continue Reading →
For many years, I would tell people (when asked, of course) that I was Wiccan. I hesitated to use the word Witch, because of all the baggage attached to it. I think I was hoping that by starting with an unfamiliar word (to most people, back in the 90s), it could be a blank slate,... Continue Reading →
Last Monday, I whined..., err, wrote about my frustration with my plot difficulties. In a beautiful show of synchronicity, my FB newsfeed this week has been full of things related to my story (the Akashic Records, Technomancy, and the veil thinning, to name a few). While I enjoyed my little pity party (because it's not... Continue Reading →
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. I tried photographing the stones against a mossy background this time. I found the Herkimer Diamond and the Smoky Quartz got a bit lost on my usual New Hampshire... Continue Reading →
