I’m not sure if this graphic would be helpful to any other beginner witches, but personally I wanted to make it to clear up some things to myself. NOTE: This is how /I/ understand the topic. For more witchy art, go here.

Let’s get things straight

“I want the cottage. I want the green grass and the tomato plants. I want the peace in you; the front porch rocking chair lullaby; our cricket legs rubbing together under the covers. We can’t have it all. I know that, but humor me. We can’t have it all, but we can have most of it.”

— Caitlyn Siehl, from “Apple Pie Life”

venus direct

relationship or romance trouble should improve today if you’ve had it, or at least bring you some manner of closure. you can still work to integrate these lessons ( i say “can” but perhaps you don’t even get a choice about it?) while venus is in the shadow of her retrograde, but the main weirdness of the cycle ends today.

[tinyspacespark]

Venus is direct today. Hope y’all learned those lessons regarding relationships and self-worth. Step up your dating game and don’t settle for less.

litha iced chamomile 🌼

simple iced chamomile tea for litha and ofc great for summertime overall; this stuff tastes amazing & it’s super refreshing~

- ☀️🕊

to make a pitcher;

2 qts water

1/2 cup sugar or 1/4 cup honey

1/8 cup chamomile

to make a serving;

water (changes based on how big or sm your mug is ofc but ratios will all generally be the same here)

1 tsp sugar or 1 tsp honey

1 tsp chamomile

1 tsp lavender

-

to actually make the tea you can either brew over a gentle simmer on the stovetop (boiling is just gonna burn/overbrew both the lavender & chamomile and it gets to be bitter) or do a cold 24-36 hr brew in the fridge then strain, ice, & enjoy!

sugar ✨

kindness, joy, wishes

no real health benefits here, it’s just sugar

always be careful with sugar intake, ofc even more so if you have any issues with insulin etc

honey 🐝

healing, prosperity, happiness, luck, energy

anti inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, heart/digestive health

honey is sugar and too much sugar won’t ever really be a good thing; be sure you’re getting your honey from a good source, save the bees, and don’t give honey to babies under the age of 2

healing, growth, happiness, prosperity, cleansing, calming

cramps, sleep aid, anti inflammatory, soothes stomach

Expanded Moon Phase Cheat Sheet

This is a much longer version of my original Moon Phase Cheat Sheet - with more phases, terms, and definitions for your quick and easy magical reference!

WAXING: These are the phases when the Moon appears to be growing. This period is divided into the First Quarter and Second Quarter, and takes about 14 days.

Good For: Drawing things towards you, increasing

New Moon: This is when the moon is just a sliver in the sky. From here, the Moon takes about 14 days to reach Full. (First Quarter)

Good For: New beginnings, potential, starts

Crescent Moon: When the Moon is a visible crescent in the sky - “The Moon of Continuing Dedication”. (First Quarter)

Good For: Treated magically like the New Moon.

Waxing Half-Moon: When the moon is half full, and growing. Occurs about a week after the New Moon. (Second Quarter)

Good For: Progressing from verbal to thought magic, plans forming into actualities.

Gibbous Moon: The last slip-thread before the Moon is full. (Second Quarter)

Good For: Deep love spells, relationships, peak emotions.

FULL MOON: This one’s self-explanatory! The Moon  remains looking Full for about 2 to 3 days, though purists choose to work magick only on the peak day. It is considered part of the Second Quarter by some.

Good For: The Full Moon is considered the most powerful Moon, due to it shining at full brightness. Many Witches choose to commemorate the occasion with a ritual or Esbat, and even more use this moon for their main spellcraft.

WANING: The phases when the Moon appears to be dissapearing. This period is divided into the Third and Fourth Quarters, and includes the Dark Moon. The Moon takes another 14 or so days to complete its cycle.

Good For: Removing, drawing away, banishing, and cleansing

Third Quarter: The waning quarter after the Full Moon. (Third Quarter)

Good For: Dissolving problems, letting go, endings, and detoxifying

Disseminating Moon: The beginning of the Moon dissappearing. (Third Quarter)

Good For:  Breaking bad habits, legal matters, cleansing

Waning Half-Moon: When the Moon is half light and half dark in the circle, and getting darker. (Fourth Quarter)

Good For: Reflection, meditative thought, ridding self of unwanted things

Waning Crescent Moon: The last slip of moon before it grows fully dark. (Fourth Quarter)

Good For: Serious issues, quitting something, understanding unfathomed elements

Dark Moon: The period of time when the Moon is completely invisible in the sky. For our course, this is considered the last part of the Moon’s cycle (some traditions count it as the first – neither is wrong). (Fourth Quarter)

Good For: Protection, wisdom, self-honoring rituals, purificaton, banishing

Apply in accordance with your magical intent, and use the lunar tides to your advantage. :>
