The waning moon phase is nature’s way of calling you inward. How can you truly know what you need to release, shed, or let go of if you haven’t allowed yourself time to go inward and fully experience your emotions? This phase is your invitation to feel and allow. The waning moon phases occur after the peak of the full moon to the dark moon. Energetically this phase represents a time of allowance, acceptance, and shedding. Growing up, most of us are taught to bottle our feelings up rather than sinking into them and accepting what is.

In this post, I’ll be sharing how to create a High Priestess mist to connect you to your intuition – a... Continue Reading

There are two different schools of thought when it comes to differentiating between a new moon and dark moon. Spoiler alert, there’s not a right or wrong answer. The difference of opinion is between astronomers and Pagans. I’m going to share both schools of thought with you so you can decide what works better for you. Here’s the short answer to this query.

The dark moon is one of my personal favorite times of the cycle. It’s the last few days of the waning time of the cycle, where the moon continues to shrink and eventually disappears from the sky. Different traditions honor the dark moon at different times. Personally, I honor the dark moon when you can’t see the moon at all in the sky–which is technically the new moon. Others honor the dark moon the last few days before the new moon. I recommend using your intuition and noticing how you feel during these days to understand when to honor the... Continue Reading
