Welcome October!

Welcome October and to the First Day of the Countdown to Samhain if you are with me on Moonsong Daily Magick!! If you aren’t, it’s not too late! Sign up today! We are going to have so much fun this month! It’s time for the Season of the Witch and it all starts here today! Are you ready?

So I have a spooktacular month planned here for you on Moonsong Daily Magick. This entire month we are going to be looking at things to do with Samhain and Halloween from  Samhain traditions to ghost stories, tricks and treats, fun crafts, recipes, history and anything else that I come across that I think you will enjoy. 

When I was little I adored Halloween and I looked forward to it all year long.  I honestly remember loving it more than  Christmas.  I couldn’t wait to start drawing Haunted Houses at school and to dress up as my favorite character and go out on Halloween night.  I also found so much joy at my library! I would go to the library to check out all the ghost and witch stories I could find.  Do you remember how amazing the Halloween kids books were? They had so many of them! How many of you remember Dorie the Little Witch? There are always so many fun things to read this time of year! 

I felt the calling to be a witch quite young in my life. Some of you who have been with me for awhile may remember the story that I told you about how wrote to Laurie Cabot in the 5th grade. If you missed it you can read it here: The Littlest Witch The writing for my future was always on the wall I just needed to learn to embrace it.  I have definitely embraced being a witch as all of you know, and this time of the year is so much fun.  I love it so much that you are likely to find things to do with it in my house year round.  I’m a witch is my excuse to the family as I tuck all my goodies around our cottage that we call home.

We have officially entered the Season of the Witch and many of you know that it’s a pretty powerful time in terms of energy. Samhain is a beautiful time to celebrate our ancestors and those who have gone before us.  It’s also a time to release things in our life that we need to let go of in order to make room for new energy with our Witch’s New Year.  This year we are closing Eclipse Season tomorrow with a very special October New Moon and Solar Eclipse! The energy is going to be intense!  Eclipse energy as you know can bring you some incredibly powerful energy of transition and change. Make sure you come and visit me right here on Moonsong Daily Magick tomorrow for all the details!

Our Full Moon is on the 17th of this month.  This Moon is also known as the Blood Moon or the Hunter’s Moon.   As we enter the dark half of the year, you will find that the veil is at its thinnest, and communication with the other side is strongest now.  For those of you who are gifted intuitives I have a special reading on the shop meant to help you with time of year called Across the Veil: Your Intuitive Gifts. This is a great time to focus on your connections with spirit and loved ones on the side and your intuitive gifts. I also have a ton of other great readings on the shop helping you to work with the energy this season.  You can find them here: Limited Edition Readings

After the Full Moon  comes the event that we all have been waiting for… Samhain and Halloween on the 31st.  Then we go on to celebrate our Witch’s New Year starting at midnight on the 31st and moving into November 1st. On November 1st many of us also celebrate the Day of the Dead. It is also bringing us a New Moon! What a great way to start a new year right?  I absolutely love October.  

The Pirates are coming!! Many of you know that each year we transform our front yard into a haunted pirate scene for Halloween! I should have some photos coming for you soon and perhaps some videos as we get our front yard all set out and start bringing out the fog machine.  This year the focus is on adding more movement!  The Captain will be steering his ship and of course we will bring back the drinking skeleton with the glow in the dark water. I am so excited for all the wonderful things that this month is bringing our way and celebrating with all of you!
