Thursday, November 6th, 2014 at 5:23pm EST a Full Moon will be in Taurus while under Scorpio's month! 
This will be a very powerful and instrumental month if you allow yourself to be open to change and set your intentions for the greater good. You have what it takes to co-create the best life you have ever imagined! Everything you desire is yours by divine right. Why not go out there and manifest it?! That's what I've always done, still continue to do and believe me, it's fabulous!
When you make the choice of changing your life by facing your fears, the world around you suddenly changes. That which you feared is no longer part of your journey, you have mastered the test at hand. 
But all ultimately starts with our thought patterns. It's your choice how you choose to think: negative or positive.
Your thoughts send out frequencies to your body, subconscious and to the Universe, therefore those frequencies are returned to you and manifested into your life in this dimension. More about this topic later next week. 
But for now let's get back into the energy of this month and the Full Moon in Taurus!

A Full Moon means the Sun and Moon are in opposite zodiac signs. The Full Moon has a powerful mystical energetic feeling that you experience while under its trance. It could be a good or bad experience but in the end it's always for your highest good! There is always a strong energy surrounding the Full Moon but it can also be a time for balance. Because the solar yang and the lunar yin are in perfect harmony, it's the perfect time to set new intentions and new beginnings. On the new moon you set intentions but on the Full Moon you can receive messages or even guidance regarding your desires you set forth on the new moon. This is the perfect time to act on something you've visualized and desired! By doing such act under the Full Moon you would be bringing an idea into reality, therefore, you've created magic!
A Full Moon symbolizes being emotional, a time for romance, fertilization and relationships.
So remember, the Full Moon is a time for culmination and bringing forth that which you started at the new moon.

This month's energy and astrological transits will be a great support with helping you to become more dedicated to your craft or be a better worker in your line of work. Personal relationships may have moments of out of the blue sincerity, so if there's something you're holding back from a loved one, this would be the time to share the news.
However, be careful about not exposing controversial gossip that's not fully confirmed yet to your friends.
Since Mercury and Jupiter are in a dramatic relationship with one another during Thanksgiving this year, you may experience some tensions in your home department. So make sure to get an energy healing session before the holidays! 

Since this Full Moon is in Taurus and the opposite zodiac is Scorpio here's the energy from this particular Full Moon. 
The energy from Taurus is very feminine, earthy, peace-loving and practical, while Scorpio is very emotional, crisis-oriented and transformative. This tells you that the Taurus Full Moon wants you to find emotional fulfillment through simple things in life, and the Scorpio Sun wants to draw your attention to complex and mysterious things in life.This moon is about finding a balance between receiving and giving. It is also about bringing a lot of passion and creativity to your life. So make the most of it!!! 
This Full Moon also rules home and finances. Are you looking to give your home a makeover? Do you have the finances to do so? Well this Full Moon can help you create the home environment you always desired! 
Possessiveness and/or acquisitiveness could possibly be an extreme urge for: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces. If you want something, know that it's out there somewhere! Manifest it! 
Same feeling for Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius. Do you truly need what you want? Be clear on what it is you feel you are missing in your life right now. Sometimes what you want is not what you need. 
Call upon Archangel Chamuel this Full Moon in Taurus to help you with all your needs! Archangel Chamuel is the perfect angel to call when you need guidance if you are looking for true love, feeling lost and stuck, need to find money to pay bills or to treat yourself to a luxury, feeling lazy or if you lost a physical item. 

This Full Moon in Taurus you have endless possibilities to co-create and manifest the life you always desired! 
Make sure to start new intentions tomorrow and make the choice of only thinking positive thoughts! :)
You always attract what you are thinking! Why not choose happy thoughts?! 
In the end, you are what you think! 

Wishing everyone a very happy Full Moon and a great magical manifesting month of November!!!

Everyone knows I love a good fairy mermaid witchy story!!! I also love creating magic spells, one in particular which I call Ledabelle's Fairy Dust. I always sprinkle some on my friends when they are going thru rough times or need a parking spot, and I especially use them on my clients so they can manifest their desires! 
Spells of course when used in white light are always fun!!! It's truly a form of using law of attraction and useful for healings as well ;) 
My sister Tammie and I are working on creating tons of different magic spells for everyone to use during New Moons and Full Moons! Stay tuned!!! 

But for now I would love to share one of my favorite spells that my first Reiki teacher Gail Thackray shared! 
Gail traveled to England this past summer and met a modern day white witch from Glastonbury. 
Her name is Witch Willow and she is a practicing witch in England. You can find Witch Willow on a BBC television series called "Witch School"! Love it!!! 
The spell she shared with Gail is called Knot Magic. So let's begin!!! 

                                                                                Knot Magic

The use of cords or strings in magic is very ancient, beginning with the cord magic practiced by Egyptian magicians, to the knot charms used by medieval witches to loose storms. Cords still play a large part in modern day Witchcraft and are used in a variety of form from Handfastings (marriage rituals) and Initiations. A common use is in spell casting.

Cord (or knot) magic is a simple, yet effective way to work magic. The only thing you need to do this kind of magic is a cord of at lease 1 metre (3 feet).  Some Practitioners use a cord or cords that are 9 feet long and are worn about their waists during rituals, and others make a girdle from blessed and consecrated cords worn around their waist to hang their ritual tools from. This cord also becomes another circle of protection.

The principal behind cord magic is simple. You tie nine knots into the cord in a certain pattern, as you tie the knots you are binding your intent, and therefore the spell, into the cord. The cord is usually kept either until the spell has worked or more usually the knots are released one by one over a certain moon time. For example if you want to bring something into your life the knots will be made at a New Moon, the cord would be kept safe and then nine days before the Full Moon one knot per evening would be released culminating with the last knot being freed on the Full Moon itself. If the spell is to banish something from your life then the knots would be tied just after the Full Moon, when the Moon is Waning, diminishing in size, and the releasing of the knots would start nine days before the Dark Moon, culminating on the Dark itself.

Method
First choose the color cord you need for your magical purpose and the Moon Phase best suited to your Magic.

Cast your circle in the usual way and when ready light some Purification Incense if you have some.  Relax your body and focus your intent, ground and centre yourself as you would before any magical working.  Hold the cord in the smoke of the Incense to purify and cleanse it from any past influences. Think about what it is you want to accomplish and infuse it with good energy. Then tie a knot in the order that the diagram shows below. At the tying of the last knot, the ninth, all the energy is directed into the cord and its knots, with a final visualization of the object of the magical work. The power has been raised and is now stored.

With each knot concentrate on the reason you are performing the spell.  It is also advisable to tie a piece of red thread to the second knot you tie to help you remember which order you tied them when it comes to releasing the knots later.

While you are tying the knots remember to keep foremost in your mind you intent and visualise the power starting to rise.

A traditional rhyme is often chanted whilst performing Cord Magic. Each line is spoken when tying the appropriate knot:

"By knot one, this spells begun"
"By knot two, it cometh true"
"By knot three, so mote it be"
"By knot four, this power I store"
"By knot five, this spells alive"
"By knot six, this spell I fix"
"By knot seven, events I'll leaven"
"By knot eight, it will be fate"
"By knot nine, what’s done is mine"

Keep this cord close to you, kept safe within a black pouch or wrapped in black material, until the time is right to release the power contained within. Speak to no one of your spell to keep its power but above all believe in what you have done and it will work.

Although you tied them all at the same time during the same ritual, they must be untied one at a time approaching the correct Moon and over nine evenings, so that the power is released steadily. They must be released in the same order in which they were tied; this is why it was important to mark your second knot.

So, on the first night light some incense and a candle, hold the cord in your hands, again rocking to raise energy and visualizing your intent.  When you deem the time ready, untie the FIRST knot. Place the cord back in its bag and keep close to you.  One the second night, release the SECOND knot in the same way as before, and so on until the night of the correct Moon phase and the NINTH and final knot.  When you are ready to untie this last knot release it with a SHOUT.

Red:
Strength, health, vigour, sexual love, desire, passion, courage, victory, and the colour red also stimulates energy and vitality.
Pink:
Honor, morality, friendship, romantic love and emotional healing.
Black:
Discord, loss, confusion, banishing, hexing, removing hexes and magic to absorb or remove anything.
Gold:
Rituals to enhance energy and power, vitality, success, luck, encouragement, adaptability, stimulation, attraction, self empowerment.
Green:
Money, prosperity, renewal, fertility, luck, Earth rituals and can also be used in healing.
Dark Blue:
Creativity, peace, communication, deep meditation, impulsiveness, depression, changeability, justice, organization.


I will be using the Success Spell tonight during the New Moon meditation so therefore if you try it tonight that means you want to bring something in to your life! And you are to untie the first knot on Wednesday, October 29th, 2014. 
The ninth knot is to be untied on the Full Moon which is on Thursday, November 6th, 2014.
Remember things to have in handy for your spell tonight:
1. The color cord of your choice.
2. Incense
3. Red string
4. Black pouch or black material
5. Your positive and opened mind

Looking forward to hearing your testimonial on the witchy Success Spell! 
It's all about the power of intention and visualization!!! YAY!

Starting tomorrow there will be an immense amount of energy entering your life! Buckle up! Its a magical time!
The New Moon in Scorpio enters your orbit on Thursday, October 23rd, 2014 at around 4:58pm EST. 
Exactly an hour later at 5:58pm EST there will be a partial Solar Eclipse in the Taurus-Scorpio axis. And we are still in Mercury Retrograde until Sunday, October 26th! I can't wait for it to leave!!! I'm done with electronic issues! Goodbye! 
I strongly suggest to keep in mind that although we always have a date set for when Mercury goes direct, the energy still lingers around for about another 2 weeks! I wouldn't make any electronic purchases until November 9th, just to be safe!

New Moons represent new beginnings. The new moon is a time to plant your seeds for the future, an energetic portal to pull in what you'd like to manifest. When the Moon is new, the Sun and Moon are aligned in the same zodiac sign. In this case, it's in Scorpio. This means that the energy is completely concentrated on that particular sign. The New Moon is a perfect time to set your intentions for things you'd like to create, develop, and manifest into your life. When setting your intentions, it's important you know exactly what you want to draw into your life. Being very clear on what it is you want to manifest in your life is crucial during a New Moon. Sometimes knowing exactly what you want to bring into your life is not very clear for most people and that's okay. Instead perhaps work on asking for help in the forgiveness, sharing, confidence, courage, or awakening department. That's always a good thing! 
Since you are entering in a New Moon in Scorpio, some of you may be having overwhelming quirky insights or feeling like you want to run away. If you feel like others are not being of service to you, DON'T pressure them. This is simply part of the process of taking a look inside of yourself for further guidance. Scorpio moons tend to make people retreat and for Taurus, Leo and Aquarius, that's always a great thing! 
If you are feeling a sense of urgency to fix others, keep in mind that it will not be in your best interest to do so, but know it's the lunar phase clouding your judgment. Which I will be discussing further in a bit. 
Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces: Give in to your sensual side this moon cycle, trust me you will be glad you did!!! 

This partial Solar Eclipse is also a magical one! All about new beginnings! This effect can be felt up to six months after the actual date of the eclipse. This one is in the sign of Scorpio which is ruled by Pluto. Which means matters of: intimacy, money, power, control and sharing will all be a strong focus on a personal level. This eclipse is about new beginnings regarding all these matters. It's about strengthening yourself from the inside out. Emotions will be extreme and sense of fears towards loss, betrayal and exposure of vulnerability will be discovered. 
Financial & emotional investments will be shined on and challenged. This is an excellent time to work on empowering yourself against debts, intense behaviors, and addictions. Do your best to focus on the good Scorpion traits like being 
passionate, focused, resourceful, deep and perceptive and see how you can add them to your daily life. 
During this Solar Eclipse you have to figure out a way to transform your worries regarding relationships, debts, career, addictions into being free of the emotional burden against it. This eclipse conjuncts Venus so its a great time to apply the love energy but since you are still in Mercury Retrograde you may feel the pressure in regards to relationships. 
If you are single and looking for your twin flame this is the perfect opportunity to set your intentions to meet that special someone! The new moon always supports anything new and with this magical solar eclipse you have the full opening for a new relationship! If you are in a rocky and toxic relationship, beware that the eclipse may put a full end to the relationship in order for you to begin a new you. 
Things always get revealed during an eclipse so you can end in order to start new. 
Not everyone feels the eclipse in the same way. Those with personal planets being activated by the degree of the eclipse will be the ones to feel the most effects on a personal level. 
The last time there was a solar eclipse at the same degree as this month's eclipse was on October 23rd, 1976 and October 24th, 1995.  
This is the final eclipse in a series falling in the Taurus-Scorpio axis. The last set of Taurus-Scorpio eclipses was in 2002-2003. Try to think back to these dates and see what circumstances you were surrounded with so you can understand what type of energy you will deal with now!

So remember this partial Solar Eclipse New Moon in Scorpio starting tomorrow is a magical one! It's the most friendly eclipse of the year! You have a gateway of opportunities available to begin a new you! Start fresh, reboot! 
A chance to move, start a new career, begin a new relationship, end a toxic relationship, time for engagements,     baby talk, birth, marriage, new ideas, promotions and a whole bunch of magical mystical and miraculous manifestations!!! Reduce your projects into smaller parts because there is no need to overwhelm yourself in this new moon cycle! 
Avoid letting all the intense emotions that is out there cloud your judgment and instead find a way to transform all those heightened emotions into something positive towards your new self!  
It's all about making sure you are crystal clear on what you desire in order to set your intentions tomorrow! 
Please write down your intentions within 8hrs following the exact time of the New Moon! That's important :) 
Meditating and getting an energy healing during this time is extremely helpful as well! 

For those of you who live in NYC and would like to attend my New Moon meditation please feel free to email me at [email protected] for location. 
I will host the meditation tomorrow Thursday, October 23rd at 7:30pm and everyone is welcomed to join us remotely from wherever you are. There is no time and space so you will all be able to draw in and feel the same energy! 
I will be doing a Success Spell as well and will post the details tomorrow morning so everyone can join in on the fun and manifest their one desire! 

Happy New Moon in Scorpio my angels!!! It's going to be a BIG MAGICAL ONE!!! 

And remember:
