Kicking off a new month, we welcome hot summer nights, new beginnings, and self-care into our space as we all learn the importance of slowing down and grounding to our current environment. Entering the month of July, we are led by the sign of the emotional and intuitive Cancer, encouraging all signs to slow down and live more in the moment. This could have us turning more to our roots and becoming more in touch with our intuition and our emotions, helping us to build a more grounded foundation within ourselves mentally and spiritually.Â
In terms of planets, this month, we have the influence of many different planetary changes going on this month. This includes Venus, Jupiter, and Chiron as some of the main events. With that said, Venus will enter Cancer mid-month, highlighting a nurturing, compassionate, and gentle approach to love. This could also bring changes to the way we connect with and communicate with those we love, as well as invoke a deeper, more caring approach to our self-care routine. Following this, Chiron will turn retrograde on the 19th of the month, pushing the signs to turn within for wisdom and introspective for the next several months. We will then enter the Leo season on July 22nd, helping us to channel some fiery new confidence that invokes creativity, hard work, and a shift in focus towards creating the life we want. And finally, Jupiter will also go retrograde on July 28th in the sign of the Aries, pushing the signs to deeply examine and evaluate their life and their path to better navigate where they want and need to be.Â
As you can see, July is likely to be full of many unique energies that are likely to inspire many changes within ourselves as well. But, to give you some deeper insight into what you can expect this month, today, we're going to touch on what energies and changes each Zodiac sign can expect throughout July and how you can adjust your life this month to make the most of it.Â

As we move through June, we soar into new beginnings as the hot nights of summer take over and guide us to a season of fun, laughter, and adventure. Often referred to as the season of new hope, summer is a rich time of year full of optimism and new beginnings. It is a time when we channel more energy towards our personal endeavors, spend time with those closest to us, and make plenty of new unforgettable memories. Not to mention, it is also a time of personal empowerment as we embrace more of the fiery light within ourselves and allow it to shine freely with the guidance of the sun and the Solstice.
Because of this, doing what we can to welcome in and honor this energy is essential to truly make the most of it and can help to enhance our spells and rituals at this time. And what better way to do that than by setting up a summer altar? So in this blog, we wanted to share a few of our favorite ways to decorate your altar to welcome in and celebrate the summer season, as well as a few product recommendations that align with the energy of this time of the year as well. So, without further ado, here’s our personal guide to setting up a summer altar to make the most of this beautiful season.

Summer is finally here, and it’s time to get out, let loose, and get crafting on all your summer spells and rituals. With new opportunities beaming around us and a new burning flame of passion within us, this is the perfect time to align more with confidence and motivation as we pick up the pace in our lives and become more fearless in our approach to our goals and dreams. And one of our favorite ways to do that is by making sun water.Â
Â
Energetically, the sun is known as the divine master healer of the cosmos and the creator of solar energy. It is the cosmic force that gives health and life to all, and without it, we and all life of our world would cease to exist. For that reason, the energy of the sun is incredibly powerful to work with in our practices and can help us to channel health, vitality, and healing within ourselves. Not to mention, it can also help us to see more of the light in the surrounding world as well as within ourselves. For that reason, sun water is a popular thing to make in the summer to absorb some of this radiant energy to truly make the most of the solstice and the season. For that reason, today, we’re going to direct our focus to sun water, its benefits, and a simple step-by-step guide for how you can make it for your summer practices. Let’s get started.Â

Just because you’re a witch doesn’t mean your craft has to cost a fortune. In fact, it should never cost a fortune unless you want it to. While witchcraft is different for everyone, practicing as a witch is often about finding magic in simple things around you and creating something beautiful from them. Social media has played a huge part in the expensive expectation for those first coming into witchcraft in this day and age. From large and extravagant altar setups to enormous luxury crystals, many people are under the impression that you have to have dozens of crystals, candles, and tarot decks in order to truly practice, but that’s not true. Don’t get us wrong, while these tools can be fun and inspiring to add to your collection and can help you to enhance the energy in your craft; they do not supply the magic––you do. The magic is within you, dear witch, and you put magic into everything you use, whether it’s cheap or expensive items, and we’re here to show you that.

Although our moms always make the best times for us, it is still challenging catching up with our busy moms, especially during special occasions. Whether they’re busy from work, doing the chores, laundry, shopping, cooking, etc.. It always seems like they are trying to chase stuff and run to beat some deadlines. Well, it is completely reasonable, otherwise we won’t be having the best lives they are trying to shape for us. Undoubtedly, there are also times it scares us out of our wits seeing our moms with too much on their plates. And it leaves us thinking whether they still have time for themselves and for the things they love to accomplish. Unfortunately, we learned (sometimes the hard way) that there’s nothing much that we can do because our moms love pressure and love to be fulfilled in their own ways. And how unkind of us to stop what makes them happy, anyway?
Anyhow, this article is a helping hand for people like me and you who’d love to catch up with our busy moms this Mother’s day regardless of their tight schedule. And keep in mind that we are focusing on gifts that you can give simply because sometimes it's better to let gift speak for itself! :)
So without further ado, we have collated some relatable items that your mom would surely love that they’d want to go on a fun date with you! Â

As we move into the warmth of the growing spring, the season is changing, the earth is blooming, and the energy is shifting with a promise of rebirth and new beginnings just beyond the horizon. With opportunity in the air, this is a truly auspicious time for wiping the slate clean and moving forward with a fresh new attitude.Â
With that said, the sun will soar through the fiery Aries sign at the start of the month, encouraging the signs to start taking more of a head-on approach with their goals. As a result, the signs will likely begin to feel more spontaneous, social, and optimistic this month, especially when it comes to pursuing their dreams. With the abundant and opportunistic energies of the growing light of the sun, intentions set in prior months are now beginning to rise to fruition, allowing us to make bigger moves for the start of the new Zodiac year. To go along with this, we also have many planetary changes occurring this month, mostly following Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus, welcoming in lust, luck, and action into our space. Mars and Jupiter could bring changes to your attitude and approach towards your goals, while Mercury can add a sharpness to our tongue, allowing us to be bolder with our words and actions. Lastly, Venus could stir changes in love, allowing partners to connect deeper as well as the opportunity to overcome issues of the past. To end the month, we will then enter the sign of the Taurus on April 20th, allowing the signs to regain balance in their lives after a busy last few weeks and focus their attention on nurturing themselves more mentally, physically, and spiritually. And since the Taurus is an earth sign, this is also a time of calmness and slow but steady movement after the raging fire sign’s ruling, allowing the signs to build a more strategic plan for the path ahead and look at their goals with more of a long-term vision.
Overall, April is predicted to be a month of action, optimism, and transformation as all the signs begin to move into the next chapter of their lives swiftly with the season’s change. But, to give you some deeper insight into what you can expect this month, today, we're going to go over what changes each Zodiac sign can expect energetically throughout April and how you align yourself to make the most of them.

The brisk and frigid days of winter are finally here, pushing us towards all things warm and cozy. From a warm cup of cocoa to your favorite pair of fuzzy socks, there’s nothing quite like the winter to remind us to slow down and focus on all the little things that we have in our lives to be grateful for.Â
Spiritually, the winter is all about reflecting, taking care of ourselves, and delving into our inner self more than ever. For this reason, this is a beautiful time of extending those self-care days to the max, meditating on feelings of self-love, and journaling as we ponder our journey thus far, as well as our goals for the future. However, there are also other ways to embrace this wondrous seasonal energy in a magical way aside from doing spells and rituals. And, if you ask us, one of the best ways to do that is through your altar setup.
So for today, we wanted to go over one of our favorite ways to decorate your own altar to welcome winter, as well as a few product recommendations to help you do just that. So, without further ado, here’s our quick guide to setting up a winter altar to truly make the most of the powerful energy of the season.Â

As we move out of the chaotic month of November, we begin making our way into the healing month of December, welcoming in a plethora of new energies. Finally, the intense vibes of Scorpio season that left many of us feeling emotionally vulnerable last month have passed, and we now enter the cold month of December feeling hopeful, as this month is all about living it up the way you deserve.Â
With that said, starting on November 21st, we kicked off the ambitious and adventurous Sagittarius season, preparing us for a month of adventure ahead. More than anything, Sagittarius is very fun-loving and always has a special way of guiding us to a more positive headspace to start living a more fulfilling life. Not to mention, the Sagittarius is also ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion and luck. Therefore, we can expect some new changes to enter our lives as we become more clear with the life we want to live.Â
Aside from this, this month, we will also be wrapping up the last eclipse of this year with a total solar eclipse in Sagittarius on December 4th. Because of its nature, this will likely stir up feelings of closure as well as clearer insight for all signs, which could either bring about a new inspired vision or some repressed emotions that you need to work through. Either way, trusting your intuition will be the way to get through it. To follow, we then have a full moon in Gemini making its way into our space on December 18th, followed by a retrograde in Venus hours later, which could stir up an uncertain but powerful time for cleansing and release in our relationships as we become more in touch with ourselves, our worth, and our values. And finally, this is then topped off by the Winter Solstice as well as the start of the Capricorn season on December 21st-22nd, marking the beginning of winter, pushing us to bundle deep within ourselves as we go through a powerful period of reflection.Â
Overall, as you can see, December is going to be packed with powerful energy that will help to guide us to further alignment this month. With that said, to give you some insight into what you can expect to feel personally throughout the month, today, we're going to touch on what energies and changes each Zodiac sign can expect throughout December and how you can truly make the most of it.Â

The crisp fall days of flannels, warm apple cider, and cozy nights by the fire are finally upon us once again as we steadily make our way into autumn.

And what better way to do that than with setting up our own autumn altar?Â

So, without further ado, here’s our quick guide to setting up an autumn altar to truly make the most of the powerful energy of the season.Â
