Happy Witch’s New Year! Yesterday I celebrated Samhain with an amazing day off and spent most of last night driving around looking at all the awesome decorations. There seems to be a new trend of putting tables at the end of driveways? Did that happen where you are? I’ve never seen that here. So many people had decorated tables out that they were sitting at to hand out the candy to the kids. They were all themed different. It was fun to look at those in addition to the houses being decorated. It was so warm here!!! We were close to 80 all day and it was in the 70’s last night. Just the most incredible day and night to celebrate Samhain.
I find that every tradition is different and some of you may just celebrate Samhain as the final harvest. I was taught that at midnight on the night of Samhain we turn the Wheel of the Year and celebrate our Witch’s New Year to represent the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one. On the day after Samhain you make it a point to work with the energy of new beginnings and the new year. One way that you can take part in this if you want is to think about what you would like in your new year and light a white candle today. While in front of that candle write the things that you would like to see on the new Wheel of the Year that you are about to start navigating.
I also think that it’s important to note that for many today is also the Day of the Dead or Dia de los Muertos. It’s a day to celebrate the dead and the lives that they lived. So while you may find at Samhain we honor those who crossed before us with special altars, or even a place set at a Samhain supper, today is a great time to do something to celebrate the life that they lived. Sing, dance, do something they would have loved to do. Someone shared some pictures of their celebration with me and I was just in awe of how beautiful it looked. I would love to learn more about it and perhaps take part in it one day. I was incredibly happy yesterday as I saw a sign from both of my Grandparents and it honestly means the world to me. The connections this time of year and through the entire year mean so much to me. Those who are remembered live.
Today we also celebrate our New Moon!! Our New Moon today is in Scorpio. As our New Moon is paired with the New Energy of the turning of the Wheel of the Year the energy of new beginnings is incredibly strong today. Keep an eye out for options and opportunities all around you. You have energy of transformation around you that is here to help you to make those changes that you want to see in your life. If you remember over the last month I’ve been telling you a lot about the energy around you and how it’s been bringing in opportunities for you to try new things in your life and to learn more about yourself. Now you are going to find it’s time to put those things that you’ve been learning to work. Today think about those changes that you can make in your life that are going to help you to align with the path that you want to be walking in your life. Finish letting go of what is no longer working for you or no longer bringing you happiness and make room to invite new things into your life that will lift your heart and soul and make room for more energy of expansion and growth in your life. Remember that when you being new things the energy expands around you making room for new things in your life. If you’ve been feeling stuck or you have been resisting change don’t be surprised if this New Moon gives you a push… and for some of you that may be a big one. You will find that it’s easier to be open to the energy of change that is moving around you and to work with it.
Today you begin a new lunar cycle. Be mindful that the energy of the New Moon and the energy that you move today can help to set the pace for the lunar cycle. Do something today that is significant in meaning for you to indicate something that you want to change or transform in your life. Do something today that is just for you that brings you happiness. Spend a bit of time with energy maintenance and then work on energy maintenance of your home. It’s a great time to work a spell that helps to support you in life like this one that I’m going to give you.
As many of you know, your home is your foundation in life. It should be a place that nourishes your soul and surrounds you with happiness and love. I have another simple spell for you today that is for your home. It’s Happy Home incense. If you can use this today or in the next couple of days you will find it will really enhance the energy of your home. Envision your home supporting all your needs as you work with this spell.
Happy Home Incense
What You Need
– Dragon’s Blood
– Frankincense
– Mortar and Pestle
– charcoal disc
– bowl safe to burn in
Blend dragon’s blood and frankincense together. I used cone incense and mashed it down using a mortar and pestle.
Use a charcoal disc to burn the blend.
Waft the smoke into the corners of all the rooms of your house and say negative energy be gone, only positive energy remains.
I hope you enjoy it! Do something amazing to celebrate the new energy that is around you today.
Have an amazingly magickal day!
Much Love and Many Blessings,
Jasmeine Moonsong
