Emporiblog - December New Moon 1 2024

-
Hello all! You may have noticed the 1 in the title of this so, let me explain. December is getting 2 New Moons this year, the second of which is a Black Moon, which is the New Moon equivalent of a Blue Moon! (NEW MOON DECEMBER 1ST    UK)


The first New Moon is in Sagittarius ♐ and, despite the combination of retrogrades going on, you may feel a durg in creativity and goodwill. However, it is also a warning to not go beyond your means. With the festive season apon us, it is easy to over spend with the urge to shower our loved ones with gifts. This Moon let's us know that we can still be good natured and charitable but we don't need to stretch ourselves thin to do it


Currently in retrograde, we have:

- Neptune 
- Chiron 
- Uranus 
- Jupiter 
- Mercury 


Crystals

Here are some Crystals to work with during this New Moon:

- Moonstone
- Selenite
- Bloodstone
- Jade
- Dioptase
- Amethyst

- Citrine
- Agate

- Obsidian


If you drawn to any other Crystals during this time, use those too!

- Thyme

I think we'll leave this here! I'm posting this early because I have a plan for Friday if my blasted internet behaves!!

Blessings,

Emporiblog - Which Witch Closed Edition - Draconic

Hello all!! Today we're returning to our Which Witch Closed Edition series and kicking off our Dragon series!! DISCLAIMER: This is a closed practices and cannot be practiced by everyone, including myself! I have done my best to research as much as possible but since I cannot practice this, resources are limited. Draconic Witchcraft centers around Dragons and not necessarily the ones you've seen on TV and in books. Dragons are completely separate entities and working with them isn't for the faint of heart or something that just anyone can do as Dragons are very picky and secretive when it comes to working with people. Draconic Witchcraft is a closed practice but not for the same reasons as our previous practices, it's not tied to a specific ethnicity, place of origin or bloodline; it is closed because you can only become a Draconic Witch with the following 2 requirements: - The Dragons choose you - You must be able to read energy As I stated before, Dragons ...

(Photo Credit: Kerenza Jinks) Earthing Although many people see grounding and earthing as the same thing, I do not.  Allow me to elaborate. To me, grounding is a spiritual thing, whereas earthing is a physical one. Although, both can be practiced together. Yes, I'm confused too. I have confused myself!! So, I will try and explain what I see as the difference. Our post on grounding is here . To me, grounding is a practice of getting rid of unwanted energy, it helps me when I feel anxious, overwhelmed or am overthinking. Yes, I go outside to do this quite often, but that is not a necessary practice. I can also meditate to achieve this   Grounding meditation on YouTube . Essentially, grounding helps calm me down, whereas Earthing gives me energy. In walking barefoot on the ground, I feel that I can draw up energy from the Earth herself, and this can be enough to allow me to face a busy day with positivity. Basically, I Earth to feel more energetic, and ground to rid myself of unw...

Hello all! We're kicking off the festive season with a post on Snow Magick! We will also cover ice as well since the two go hand in hand! So, the easiest point to cover is that both snow and ice are different forms of water and can be used in water rituals and magick as a whole as well as for their own individual uses. We have several posts on the uses of water for those who want some extra reading! Snow/Ice is also associated with the following: - Winter - Death - Preservation  - Transformation As well as many deities and beings ( Krampus comes to mind) But, let us look at the uses of snow within the craft... 1 : You can use snow to make a poppet! That's right, you can make a temporary poppet in your own garden by building a snowman or several and enchanting them to protect your property. You can also make regular sized poppets, enchant them and melt them 2 : Get rid of unwanted behaviours by enchanting a snowball or placing a piece of paper into a snowball and t...
