#blue moon

As many of you may know, this is a special month! On January 31st we will experience a blue supermoon which will reach a total lunar eclipse/blood moon. Here are some aspects you can work with during this upcoming rarity:

• Protection
  
• Strength
  
• Beginnings of Positivity
  
• Endings of Negativity
  
• Overcoming Addiction
• Healing
• Ultimate Power
  
• Spirit Work
  
• Heightened Sensitivity 
  
• Psychic Ability
  
• Knowledge and Wisdom
• Developing Magical Skills
• Divination
• Honoring Divinity
• Water Magic
  
• Hexes and Curses (If you so choose.)

TIPS

• Lately, a few people seem to have latched onto the idea that it’s just plain dangerous to perform magic during a lunar eclipse, especially if you’re a “newbie.” There is absolutely no logical basis for this theory. If you’re worried enough about the state of your psyche that you believe it could be somehow damaged by doing magic during an eclipse, then you need to either (a) not do magic at all, or (b) learn how to ground, center and shield so you won’t self-sabotage any workings you do.
  
• Some practitioners see the eclipse period–which is generally pretty short–as being the equivalent of an entire lunar cycle packed into one brief event. 
  
• In some modern magical traditions, a lunar eclipse is considered a sort of metaphysical bonus round–in other words, any spellwork you do during this period is amplified and has a bit of extra power behind it. If you’ve been waiting around for a good time to do some serious spell work, this is it. Pick a goal that serves your or others in a big way. 
• Looking for something a little different? Raise power during the supermoon by catching the light in a magnifying glass and charging the altar or spell elements with it.   
  
• The supermoon creates an especially strong pull on the ocean tides, making it an ideal time to work with the element of water.
  
• Perhaps your schedule doesn’t permit you to use this event at the height of its power. In that case, leave out some crystals or make some moon water to store the supermoon’s energy for later use.
  

Day 28- Happy Samhain

A second full moon sits in the foreground, and a line of six tombstones covered with leaves climbs back and up the right side of the page. /end ID]

Happy Halloween AND Blue Moon! For the first time in 76 years we’ll have a once in a generation Blue Moon on Halloween (or Samhain, as the ancient Celts say, the start of their new year when the veil is thinnest between worlds. Spooky…).
