New Moon in Capricorn - December 26, 2019

New Moon in Capricorn - December 26, 2019

December’s new moon in Capricorn is a clue from the universe to prepare yourself for an energy boost toward working on yourself and your goals. This is the moon to use for working to mature in many ways, organize your life and goals, take responsibility for your life and goals and allow your ambition to run a little wild.

This moon is connected to Jupiter, so expect luck, growth and expansion to be part of the energy you are working with.

If you worked with shedding baggage and blocks during the December Cold Moon, then you will now see how to fill in those spaces you created in your journey. You’ll want to prepare yourself for all of these things as well as the energy found at the end of this year.

Expect to be busy with projects and goals during this new moon, while building toward the next steps in these areas. Remember to take time for self-care so you don’t wear yourself out before you’re finished with the work.

Keep success at the forefront of your mind and it will be yours. That’s what this moon is about, bringing success to fruition in your life.

Crystal Grid for the New Moon and Success

You will need:

Aventurine for Opportunity

Sodalite for Truth

Citrine for Success

Clear Quartz for Amplification

Rose Aura Quartz for Mood Lifting

Green Fluorite for Stabilization

Tiger’s Eye for Protection

I’ve done a more free form grid for this moon. Arrange your stones however they speak to you. I like circles, but you can truly make your grid any shape you like.

Once you’ve completed your grid, don’t forget to empower it and energize it. The photo below is of my empowered grid for success, wealth, and abundance. If you can’t make a grid of your own for whatever reason, please feel free to use mine. Add your energy and intent to the photo and use it in place of a physical grid.

Finished Grid

As you can see, I’ve placed a clear quartz point at the center and along the center line. All of the points are pointing into the center to bring these energies into your life. The Rose Aura Quartz is the rest of the inner circle. The next circle alternates citrine and tiger’s eye with the sodalite finishing out the center line. The outer ring alternates aventurine with fluorite.

I recommend setting up your grid the night of the new moon and leaving it up until the next full moon so it can continue to work while you act in alignment.

I’ve prepared a free resource packet for this new moon that you can get by clicking HERE.

Yule--Winter Solstice

Hello and Welcome to this episode of the Energy, Tarot and Magic podcast. Today’s episode addresses Yule and includes a ritual and crystal grid to help you celebrate.

Yule--Winter Solstice

Yule is a celebration of birth and the start of new cycles. It is the time when the day begins to overtake the night once again and when the old man of winter gives way to the young man of spring, though he won’t come into his own power for some time.

Just like the rest of the holidays of this season, Yule is a celebration of family and life and light. Many of those who celebrate yule in favor of other winter holidays do so in ways that bring together those whom they love and cherish. The ritual I’m going to share with you in this podcast is more for the small group or individual practitioner than for the family.

I have done rituals over the years for and including children. The only changes I made to my usual ritual habits was to make the candle battery operated so there would be no accidents with children brushing up against flames.

Something that might help to include children in this kind of ritual is the remember that ritual is supposed to be a celebration. Have fun. Laugh when something funny happens during the ritual, let things take their own course and be open to a little chaos.

I hope that you and yours are enjoying your holiday season and I wish you all a happy new year.

The Ritual

December 21st Yule represents the death of the Holly King and the beginning of the reign of the Oak or Sun God. This is the time when the Goddess gives birth to the Sun God so she may take him as Consort during her transition from Maiden to Mother.

Yule is an excellent time for personal renewal and honoring our family and friends.

Materials:

• Yule Incense

• Red, White and Green Candles

• Oats

Preparing the Altar: Place the white candle on the left of center of your altar and the red candle on the right of center.

Place the green candle slightly in the front of the the white and red candles and centered.

The white candle represents the Goddess, the red the Holly King. The green candle represents the Oak King.

Arrange the rest of your altar as you normally would.

The Ritual:

1. Open your ritual as you normally would.

Hail and Welcome to the spirits and powers of the North, East, South and West. I ask you to join me this night as we mourn the passing of the Holly King and rejoice in the birth of the Oak King.

2. Light the White Candle

Holy Mother, your love and light blesses my life with each moment you place your hand on my heart. This night we will mourn the loss of your consort and rejoice in the birth of your son. Hail and Welcome.

3. Light the Red Candle

To the Holly King, I offer my welcome and love. Your love and light has been felt each day of your reign. This night while we mourn your passing, we do so with the joy of knowing your child of the Sun will be reborn. Hail and Welcome

4. Take time to contemplate your life and the lives of your friends and family. Consider your blessings of the past year and thank the Divine for these blessings. Meditate on these blessings and consider how you might continue to bring these blessings to you and your loved ones.

5. When you are ready, take the green candle in your hand and prepare to light it from the flame of the red candle. As the days grow longer, the blessings of my life will grow. We now mourn the closing of the reign of the Holy King, knowing that as each cycle passes, it brings new blessings and opportunities with it. Just as the Holy King passes his power to his son the Oak King, so too will the Goddess and her son guard and love me through this cycle. The birth of the Oak King is a blessing each year at this time. The depths of winter are lit by your light and your love sustains us through this time. Hail and Welcome.

6. Light the green candle from the flame of the red candle. Set the green candle down. My lord Holly King, your blessings have brought so much to my life this year. I thank you for your influence and your love. I wish you peace as you rest and look forward to the time of your return. Hail and Farewell.

7. Make the offering.

My lady and lord of this winter cycle, your love lights us and warms us. The days now grow longer and the earth will live again. Thank you for all you give to your children. I offer to you this sustenance as you offer your love to sustain me. (make the offering of oats).

8. Meditate for a few moments on your plans for the coming year. You do not need to be specific now, but consider the direction your year will take. Think about how you will work in accord with the power of the Goddess and her Son to make the coming year better.

9. When you are ready, thank the divine for their presence.

My Lord and Lady, thank you for your presence here this night as well as your constant presence in my life. With each step I take, I see and feel you walking with me. You are the light and love of the universe. Hail and Farewell. (Extinguish the white and green candles).

10. Release the elements.

To the powers of earth, air, fire and water, I thank you for your presence here this night. Your love and energy has helped me to celebrate this changing cycle. Hail and Farewell.

After the Ritual:

Set the three candles from this ritual aside to be used in later sabbats of the year. Remember they are representative of the Goddess, her Consort and her Son, so store them with honor.

I have created a Yule Materials Packet you can download for free from HERE.

Full Moon in Gemini - December 12, 2019

Full Moon in Gemini - December 12, 2019

The full moon in Gemini for the December Cold Moon will occur at 12:12 am on 12/12/19. This will be an emotional rollercoaster kind of full moon with the emotional baggage and clock clearing energy it carries. Be ready to be unsettled and emotional. Prepare for the moon by deciding what you want to leave behind when it’s over. It’s key to be prepared and ready to shed whatever is no longer serving you because this Full Moon is also about expansion. You need to make room for all the great things you are bringing to your life in this cycle.

I recommend using the Full Moon Worksheet I’ve prepared for you to help you stay focused on what you want to use the energy for during your ritual. I offer two free worksheets for working with the New and Full moon. Please click HERE if you’d like to get these free worksheets.

For this full moon, I prepared a crystal grid to help me release the blockages and baggage that will be so energetically active during this full moon.

---

Full Moon Crystal Grid

You will need

Amethyst for releasing emotional baggage

Aquamarine for calm reflection

Blue Topaz for confidence while working through emotional baggage

Citrine for releasing negativity

Rainbow Moonstone for easing pain

Rose quartz for releasing fear and resentment

Kunzite for removing blockages

I used the Seed of Life with Star of David Grid for this grid. I have very little space in my home right now so, I’ve been using this grid, inside a cigar box, to keep the grids from being disturbed while they work. You can, of course, use whatever grid you like to make yours.

What to Do

The amethyst is in the center, then the aquamarine is placed above and below it. I only own two small pieces of aquamarine, so if you have more, use them!

I then filled that circle with pieces of blue topaz. Yes, they’re tiny (they came from one of those gemstone bottles you can get at touristy places), but the size or perfection of a stone doesn’t affect the efficacy of the energy in it.

The next circle alternates rainbow moonstone with citrine.

The outside edge alternates rose quartz and kunzite.

The next step is to empower your grid with your purpose and intent. This is why the worksheets are so helpful. They’ll help you plan out your purpose and intent before you begin your work.

If you are unfamiliar with empowering grids, objects or stones, I do offer a FREE mini course called Energy Work for Everyone. If you’d like to enroll in this course, please click HERE. There’s no catch and no cost. Just click the link and fill in your name and email address. You’ll receive the link to the course in your email within a few minutes.

Once the grid is empowered, I do recommend sitting it where it can be in the moonlight over night, but this is not critical to your success.

Your next step, then, is to take action. Go back to the Full Moon Worksheet and review your action steps. What will you DO to take action on your goals and purpose? Remember, a goal without action is just a wish.

Set your grid where it won’t be disturbed until you dismantle it at the next new moon.

Crystal Journey Visualization

I also recorded a crystal journey visualization to help you shed your baggage. You can find it on my Podcast in the the first episode.

New Moon in Sagittarius, November 2019

New Moon in Sagittarius, November 2019

Manifesting Wealth and Abundance

The new moon is usually a time for manifestation magic, but the Sagittarius New Moon is even moreso. What will you manifest for yourself during this highly energetic time? Will it be extra money for the holidays? Perhaps a particular gift you’ve longed to receive? Whatever it is, dream big and keep the energy flowing until the full moon on December 12, 2019.

What Do I Need

• Selenite-to clear energies and remove negativity
• Rose Quartz-to take down the blocks we put up around ourselves that block both good and bad
• Clear Quartz-to encourage clarity
• Green Aventurine-for money
• Citrine-to drawn money your way
• The Law of Abundance Check, made out to yourself.

When Should I Do This?

During the three day window of the New Moon in November (25-27)

What Should I Do?

1. Arrange the Rose Quartz, Clear Quartz, Green Aventurine, and Citrine on your altar or in your sacred space. Choose a pleasing design, but don’t stress over it.
2. Pass the Selenite over the stones after you have arranged them, visualizing any negativity flowing away from the stones and out of your life.
3. When the stones feel clear, lay the selenite into the arrangement of the stones, making it part of the arrangement.
4. Hold your hands over the stone arrangement for several moments, allowing the energy to wash over you. Pay attention to which stones speak loudest to you.
5. Take this time to also feel through your desires and choose those you wish to focus on for this ritual. Perhaps you have a specific amount of money you need to pay a bill, or an amount you have determined will make for the best holiday season you and your family have had in years. Whatever it is, focus on the what, not the how. The how is not your job. Leave that up to the Universe.
6. Print out and then cut out the check.
7. When you have a clear idea of what you want to manifest, write a statement of it on the back of the check.

1. I am happy and grateful to receive ___________ (fill in the blank with your desire) within the next _________ (fill in the blank with a time frame you feel is workable, but go for the gold here, knowing it may take longer, but it will come). I release the “How” to the universe and have complete faith in the process of bringing this to my reality. This or something better. So it is, so it shall be.

8. Write your name on it in the “To The Order Of” space on the check.
9. Fold the check and tuck it under the citrine in your crystal arrangement.
10. Speak these words, or those of your own making.

1. I surrender the how and only know that the universe will provide what I have asked to be brought into my life. I am the maker of my own reality and my mindset is open to all possibilities and positive outcomes. The thoughts I think today are creating the reality of my future, so I will maintain a positive outlook while this magic works. As I will it, so shall it be.

11. This is the hardest part of this ritual: Walk Away!

1. Do not focus on the check, the amount, or anything but maintaining a positive mindset. If you feel yourself drifting into the negative, or focusing on the spell too much, take the selenite from the crystal arrangement and pass it over yourself and the arrangement to again clear the energy and return to a positive mindset.

12. Now go on about your life and forget about this spell. What you have asked for will come to you faster if you let the magic work in the background rather than trying to focus on it. If you focus on it, you are attempting to control it. This is an exercise in surrender, too.
13. Leave the crystal arrangement and check in place until the spell manifests your desired outcome.
14. When that happens, celebrate your success. Enjoy it and live in it. Use that positive energy to power your belief in yourself and your ability to create the reality you want to live in.

Notes

If your spell doesn’t work in the time frame you set forth initially, don’t lose faith. The magic is working, but you have to release your blockages for it to come to fruition. You must also act in accord. If you’re asking for wealth to come into your life, you cannot quit your job and sit on your butt, eating bonbons all day. You must take an active part in building wealth. Manifestation is not wish fulfillment. It doesn’t happen without your input and action. Take small actions each day towards your goal and you will see it come into fruition sooner than if you wait for the Universe to fulfill a wish.

To help you choose what to manifest, I’m including this New Moon Manifestation Worksheet for you to print out and use each new moon you want to manifest something.

Two of Wands

What should I know about today?

The Two of Wands in this position suggests you may be losing touch with yourself today. Perhaps you have stopped listening to your inner guidance and wisdom, and are thus veering off your path. This card is asking you to locate how and where this may be happening, in order to get you back on track. Are you being influenced too easily by others? You might not be wanting to risk their criticism or rejection, or you may simply not want to rock the boat. These could be important lessons for you regarding personal power: in standing up and being who you are. If this is the case, you will need to regain your strength and find your voice once more.

Losing touch with oneself.

The Two of Wands is the card which represents the courage to be oneself. There is a famous quote from Henry Thoreau:"If a man does not keep pace with his companions perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music he hears, however measured or far away." Imagine if the world were filled with people truly listening to that inner voice, telling them to follow their own path. It would not be a world of alienated or aggressive dancers or distorted, disjointed music, but of joy and harmony; of people feeling safe to be who they truly are. The card speaks also of the courage to be guided by our inner voice or gut instinct when making decisions about where to go in life, which roads to take, which partner to choose etc. None of us can fully predict the future or see what is round the corner, so we must all rely to some extent on that inner light which shines like a torch, illuminating the way forward. We each have this inner guidance but are not all fully attuned to its wisdom. The appearance of this card can often be asking us to polish that torch and to trust that where it shines is where we should follow, with boldness and faith.

---

Six of Wands

How should I approach this day?

The appearance of the Six of Wands lets you know that, even if you do not feel close to achieving what you want now, you should know that it will happen soon, provided you are doing all you can to make it happen. Try to stay positive and optimistic, and visualize the successful results you would like to see. You may have been struggling for a long time on a particular path and felt pessimistic that you would never see the fruits of your labor. The Six of Wands has appeared here to let you know that your efforts are not in vain. Just try to keep the faith and stay patient for a little longer. Remember also what support you have been given by others on your quest. Even if it doesn't seem to you like much it is important to acknowledge others for any help they give. Your humility will be rewarded by future loyalty and further support.

Don't give up.

The Six of Wands represents the trials and tribulations we need to go through on the way to victory and success. It is the card of the athlete who trains, sacrifices, sweats and eventually wins. Sometimes when we are persistent and keep trying with little sign of success, it can be the Universe's way of telling us that we're barking up the wrong tree. When the Six of Wands turns up, however, it is an indication that our trying is not in vain, but rather success may be just around the corner! The Six of Wands also asks us to recognize that our endeavors are an important part of the journey towards success and that we grow through our persistence. Sometimes when we think we have not succeeded, we fail to notice that all the effort and commitment we've put in has made us better people. We should feel good and reward ourselves for our accomplishments when this card turns up, but we should also remember that nothing we achieve is ever solely our success. On the contrary, any achievement to some extent grows on the backs of others: e.g. our friends, partners, colleagues or family. Thus it is worth remembering that our successes are not ours alone, and thus are to be shared and celebrated with those who support and love us.

---

Justice

What is the true potential of this day?

The presence of this card predicts you will see justice coming your way today. You may have been unfairly treated in the past or present by someone, which has been having a detrimental effect on your life, causing hurt and upset. However, it could also be that you yourself have acted unjustly towards someone, in which case you will see a reconciliation of some kind. When this happens try to be as open as you can to either giving or receiving forgiveness in order to rectify the past and move cleanly into the future. This will provide you with a feeling of serenity and inner peace as the Universe restores harmony for you. If you are unable to forgive, the card predicts that justice will still be served in time - as imbalance is against the laws of nature.

Justice will prevail.

In this card we see the familiar figure of Lady Justice. In one hand she holds a set of scales with which she weighs up each opposing side of an argument as well as right and wrong; and in the other she holds the sword of decision with which she will inevitably administer her considered verdict. The message this card has for us is that the universe is ultimately a fair place, even though it may not seem so on a day-to-day level. Whether this is due to karmic law, divine retribution or simply that people are inherently good, is not revealed. The card also reminds us that we each have a responsibility to act in an ethical way and, if we do this, our good deeds will in time come back to us. In the same way if we don't make amends, our mistakes will come back to haunt us.
