new moon

Do we even dare to cast a vision? 2021 is coming to an end and I am seeing lots of comments about how this year was not all that great after all. It seems…

Life is moving fast these days. And I’m trying my best to stay slow. We are most definitely in transition mode over here. I am so excited about our future move. On the other…

you guys. this november is a moody one. i didn’t mean to drop off into nowhere the past few weeks, but since halloween/samhain i’ve been in some kind of bubble or fog. first there…

We’re just two days from the autumn equinox (or spring for you southern hemisphere lovelies) and two-ish days away from the last new moon. That means that there is a bunch of new energy…

I cannot seem to catch up with these posts. I keep thinking I’m going to get two done in one weekend, but it ain’t happening. I am still a week behind, so this post…

Following the moon cycles isn’t mean to be a complicated thing, I believe. It doesn’t have to be some elaborate ritual that only pagans, witches, priestesses, and/or other new age types can lead. And…

this year’s first new moon phase is like when you’ve let out a long, deep breath. it’s that empty, quiet pause of silence + nothingness. but it’s not nothing. it’s actually the preparation for…

November’s dark new moon is the perfect time to plant seeds. To dream dreams. To let the darkest days of the year do their magic. Since the last new moon just before Halloween +…

Do you ever have a month or a year that you just don’t want to end? You know, a time when things just seem to be flowing + aligning + clicking. A time when,…

I am in need of some serious healing vibes. This is day 3 of me being sick at home. My body forced me to slow down, so I have been resting in bed, drinking…

It’s a good thing we started this series with the Warrior Woman because it seems like today everything comes crumbling down. At least that’s what today’s card offers us. A big, crumbling mess. But,…

Lately my intention for each new moon has been super powerful. They have been building on each other in the most amazing ways. From March’s becoming (knowing + embracing who I am) to April’s…

We’ve started this journey toward the equinox + the changing of the seasons with a call to break free from all of the stuff that is holding us back. Everything that is keeping us…

As March begins + as we make our way toward the Spring Equinox (or Autumn), I can’t help but believe that the new moon that occurs in the next 24ish hours fits perfectly with…

If you’re waiting for a sign, then this is it. There is no time like now. In fact, this is the perfect time. And today’s card coupled with tonight’s new moon, which is the…

Last autumn (2017), I spent a lot of dark, cozy weekend days at home and I ended up diving deep into my soul. As a result, I felt a strong pull toward living the…

Alright, wild wanderers. It’s happening. We’re sinking into October. We’re entering the second week of the month + the second week of my little challenge/journey into the dark. And it’s now time to take…

What if, instead of being afraid of the dark, instead of stumbling around in the dark + avoiding the dark, we slowed down, sat down, and embraced it instead? What if, instead of being…

Every new moon brings us a chance to begin again. But, there’s something about this one, this weekend, that feels extra special new. Perhaps it’s the vernal/autumnal equinox coming up in a few days.…

The new moon may be dark, but that doesn’t mean that the magic is gone. In fact, it may just be that there is more magic right now than when the clock struck midnight…

New moons are for beginnings. And, even though this new moon is appearing as 2017’s last new moon of the year, making it feel more like an ending than a beginning, what I feel…

It may feel like it’s a bit early, but it is time to begin to look back on this year. Twenty seventeen is slowly drawing to a close, and the energy of hibernation, darkness,…

With this new moon, we enter the phase of the year that holds the darkest days and longest nights as we make our way toward Halloween. On Thursday we are entering the moon phase…

We all know that as autumn creeps in, we tend to turn inward as well. The air turns crisp. Rain + snow begin to fall from the sky. Leaves let go + surrender to…

Whoa. There’s just so much crazy energy everywhere right now. We’ve just experienced the summer or winter solstice, and now it’s time for June’s super new moon. It’s super because of it’s closeness to…

Hello, my lovelies. It feels like it’s been a while since I tapped on these keys + sent out a post into the cyber-universe to you. I blame it on my super amazing trip…

For one brief second this past weekend,  I believed that spring was truly on its way. Well, I suppose it actually is on its way, but it is just taking its own sweet time…

It’s just what we need, isn’t it? Hope. Because right now it’s dark. Literally + figuratively. Literally it is the first new moon of the year. The darkest night that rolls around every month.…

It’s time to say goodbye to 2016. Finally. Am I right? All in all it has not been the worst year ever; but it has been chaotic and messy, I think. The energy has…

it’s time to dive deep into our souls. and just dwell there for a moment. deep down it’s dark. and that is most often very frightening. but, it is also magical. there is much…

Tonight we have a new moon. And that means that it’s the perfect time to begin again. It also just so happens that this new moon falls on the first day of a new…

it’s not like i really had to recover from my trip to paris. even though we saw a lot of things and experienced a lot of things, we did it all at a slow…

generally being in-between things is not a good thing. or at least it doesn’t feel good. it’s unsettling and unfamiliar. and i think we tend to feel a bit paralyzed + freaked out by…

i love preparing my little posts that give a glimpse of what my week has looked like. i get to process my thoughts, remember what’s happened, and share some of the photos that i took during…

f*uck it. let’s just do this already. things have been changing and crazy and tough and beautiful for the past 3 years. whatever was started during the holidays of 2012 is coming to a…

i’m always sad every month when the new moon rolls around. i look up into the night sky, only to find that there is no moon there to comfort me. to inspire me. to…

In the beginning of October, I wrote a little about moving forward after some intense changes in my life. You can read that post –> here. Here’s a summary: I began my Sat Nam…

it’s dark outside right now. not literally, of course, because i am typing this on saturday morning and, though it’s cloudy, the sun is up and my apartment is filled with a soft, gray…

right smack dab in the middle of july we find ourselves under a new moon and in-between two amazing full moons. the first full moon was july 1/2. the second full moon (a blue…

tonight, we’ve got a magic new moon up in the sky above us. during a new moon, the moon reaches its minimum brightness. it is the lunar phase that occurs when the moon, in its monthly…

have you being feeling a little bit “off” lately? or have you been feeling some crazy energy swirling all around you – causing you to be inspired, overwhelmed, confused, or out of balance –…
