Moving deeper into the cooler winter months, we welcome November, a month of relaxation and coziness into our lives as we all begin to snuggle into the cozy season and direct our focus more toward family and personal connections. However, this month doesn’t just mark the start of the holiday season; it also marks a powerful season of new energy that is likely to help the signs progress on their path of growth.Â
With that said, we will kick off the month in the sign of Scorpio, which is likely to bring more emotional, mysterious, and passionate energy to our space. As a result, this month, we may find ourselves directing our focus more toward our relationships, which could make this a powerful month for couples to grow closer. At the same time, this is also likely to direct our focus toward our personal passions, which could help to welcome new ideas, new opportunities, and new progress on our goals.Â
Aside from the Zodiac influence, we welcome a full moon and lunar eclipse in the sign of Taurus in the first week of the month, prioritizing our need for balance and pushing us to work through any problems of the past we may be holding onto. To follow, around the 16th, Venus, the planet of love and beauty, will enter the sign of Sagittarius, which could ignite our hearts and bring a more spontaneous and energetic approach to our love life for the next several weeks. Around the 22nd, we enter Sagittarius season, welcoming some ambitious new energies in our lives that are likely to direct our focus towards our goals, as well as push us to grow and align more with our authentic selves. And lastly, on the 23rd, Jupiter will also become direct in the sign of Pisces, which could help to restore any lost creativity in our lives and help us to become more in touch with our emotions and intuition.
As you can see, November is packed full of many different energies that are likely to direct our focus towards stillness and growth as we delve deeper into ourselves than we have all year. But, to give you a better idea of some energies that may be present around you this month, today, we're going to go over what energies and changes each Zodiac sign can expect in their horoscope throughout November and how you can adjust your life to make the most of it.

Kicking off a new month, we transition out of September and welcome the first brisk and chilly month of autumn into our lives. Known as the most intuitive month of all, October is also a time of honoring your light and dark in equal balance as we move into a more calm, slow, and steady place within ourselves. It is also known to be a powerful month of connecting deeper with your shadow self as well as your intuition and invites many powerful spiritual changes and new perspectives into our life as a result.Â
But aside from the spiritual associations linked with this brisk fall month, the planets are also going to be quite active around us this month, with some notable influences from Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Mars that are likely to influence us.Â
With that said, Mercury will enter Libra around the 10th of the month, which is likely to bring changes to your communication and way of thinking, and could have you undergoing some changes in balance in your life. On the 23rd, we enter the season of the Scorpio, invoking more energy and intensity into our lives that could have our emotions feeling a little strained. This coincides with both Saturn direct in Aquarius and Venus in Scorpio on the same day, which could allow you to become more open in love and in your life in general and could help reenergize you moving forward.Â
On the 28th, Jupiter moves into retrograde in the sign of Pisces, which is likely to encourage some changes in personal growth, and could have us focusing on processing any repressed emotions we may be holding onto. Then, on the 30th, Mars goes retrograde in the sign of Gemini, which could make life a little chaotic and unpredictable for a while. Lastly, we also celebrate our final harvest sabbat of the season, Samhain, on the 31st of the month, bringing forth energies focused on family, roots, and spiritual connection, which could have the signs connecting deeper with those around them, doing some inner reflection and focusing more on spiritual practices.Â
As you can see, October is packed full of many different energies that are likely to direct our focus towards stillness and growth within ourselves as we delve deeper into ourselves than we have all year. But, to give you a better idea of some energies that may be present around you this month, today, we're going to go over what energies and changes each Zodiac sign can expect throughout October and how you can adjust your life to make the most of it.

Kicking off a new month, we transition out of the remaining summer days and welcome a brisk new coolness into our life. September marks the start of the harvest season and welcomes in many new energies aligned with property and abundance. With its powerful energies of focus, success, and motivation guiding the way, this is likely to be a good month for signs to reflect and reevaluate things in their life and channel more inspiration and ideas towards their endeavors. However, with the slowness of a new season also creeping in, this is likely to bring some restful energies into your life that are likely to encourage a more stable and steady flow towards creating a joyous life that is meant to nurture you.Â
With that said, for the first half of the month, we will be led by the Virgo sign, pushing energies of hard work and focus into our space. This is likely to have us focusing more on making progress on any important goals in our lives and help to bring a more grounded and open perspective to life. This could also inspire new ideas, new creativity, and an overall more fun-loving look at life. Virgo could even help us to tie up any loose ends in our lives and bring a close to previous chapters to help us move forward.Â
As from this, some key influences happening from Mercury and Venus this month are also likely to affect us in a number of ways. To start, on the 5th, Venus will enter the focused sign of Virgo, which could bring a practical tone to our love life and boost our ability to manifest new things in love. This could have us more willing to go out of our way for those we care for and also have us seeking some gentle love and care in our own life. To follow, on the 9th, Mercury retrograde in the Libra sign begins and could cause some friction with the balance in our life. All signs will need to be careful not to lash out or fall into toxic patterns of the past. Work to maintain balance and keep your eyes forward. Then, on September 22nd, we welcome the Autumn Equinox, pushing us to find balance within ourselves and focus our energy. This is a time to focus on gratitude, rebirth within ourselves, and quiet, contemplative ease into new beginnings. And lastly, on the 23rd, we also transition into the season of the Libra, pushing us to renew our energy, find balance, and focus more on personal expression.Â
As you can see, September is likely to be full of many different energies that are likely to offer us a chance to focus more on bettering ourselves.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.

With the coming of May, we welcome in our next sabbat celebration on May 1st, known as Beltane. Commonly referred to as May Day, Beltane is a fire festival that marks the halfway point between the spring and summer equinox. With the energies of new beginnings and fertility in the air, this is known to be a joyous time of celebration that honors the joining of the May Queen (The Maiden) and the May King (Young Oak King) in a sacred union of love. As a result, the energies of fertility, passion, and new life are buzzing all around us as we celebrate the abundance of the earth, the rising sign, and the balance of feminine and masculine energy.Â
With so much opportunity and vibrancy in the air, there are many jovial and light-hearted rituals you can take part in to honor the many energies around us at this time. And today, we’re going to share eight of our personal favorite rituals you can do to align and honor this fiery sabbat in a truly unique way. Let’s get started.
March 30, 2022
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.
