Wednesday, February 18, 2015 at 6:47pm EST a New Moon-Super Moon-Black Moon enters Aquarius a minute shy from entering Pisces. Yes it's that intense in an amazing way. We will be entering a New Moon at the end of Aquarius at exactly one minute from entering Pisces. Here we have the opportunity to tap into the Aquarius energy along with all that Pisces has to offer. Best of both worlds! 
I'm writing to you all from the magical world of Sedona, Arizona so this post has been infused with tons of magnetic manifesting energy! 

A New Moon represents new beginnings. A time to set intentions and plant your seeds for the future. It's when the Sun and the Moon are in the same sign. Always write down your intentions after the New Moon has entered. In this case means right after 6:47pm EST go ahead and meditate on what you desire along with sending healing energy to the world and those in need. 

This New Moon is so special because it will create a huge urge in your soul to connect with your sisterhood and brotherhood. You will feel a sudden urge to connect with friends, start new projects, feel the need to do charity work or do something kind for someone else. Perhaps question your own beliefs regarding everything that is around you.
Meaning start thinking outside the box.
 You will start receiving new ideas on how to approach all your challenges in your life with a more positive outlook.
This is the perfect time to set the foundation for trying all that is new. Been thinking of learning a new language? Go for it! This is the time to start that 30 Day Challenge you have been wanting to do. You have the energy of Aquarius still helping you. 

On February 22nd Venus and Mars will meet and kiss each other! So this means that LOVE is in the air for you!!
Venus represents the female energy and Mars the male energy. And on this day both planets will meet creating the perfect LOVE day! 
If you are in a relationship with yourself this means you will be able to meet someone of your liking on the weekend of February 21-22. You will have a massive opportunity to meet your Twin Flame! So make sure to step outside and put that vibe out there. 
If you are in a relationship with your special someone then this is your Valentine's Day part duex! Get ready to feel more loved on this day.
Venus and Mars will be working for you on this weekend! 

On February 19th it's the Chinese New Year, a new beginning for the Feng Shui energy.
It's the year of the Wood Sheep. 
Sheep is a kind, sweet, loving, generous soul. Home is very important to Sheep. So make sure to do a spring cleaning now during this New Moon energy to move out any blocked energy in your home and life. 
Add plants to your home and to your diet. Pick up your favorite plant and place it in your home. Add more green veggies to your diet to cleanse out your body of any toxins. 
Sheep love beauty, so make sure to treat yourself this year by honoring your body, mind, spirit and emotions. 
Perhaps take that vacation you have been so desiring to take. You have the Sheep year supporting your every move. Sheep work better when they have the support of others around them but they can also be sensitive and desire quiet time. So make time to socialize, connect and learn from your peers but also take time to do some soul searching of your own and truly connect with who you are as a person. You are special and need to feel and know this. 

So as you can see this rest of the month is pretty amazing and packed with lots of new beginnings. You have an opportunity to try new things, spend time with others and find your inner self in that process. 
During the New Moon make time to connect with your spiritual friends that offer the positive energy you have been seeking and truly take time to learn from them. Ask what a Kundalini is if you don't know! 
Bonding with your friends that are also on this path will help you elevate your soul to that next level. 
Take time to fall in love with yourself, Mother Earth and that special someone. Feel the love, joy and gratitude for having the ability to sit with this now moment. The past and future are not of importance but this beautiful present moment that you have right now is all that matters. 

My darlings I send you all loving energy from Sedona and may we all understand this year that we are all ONE on this journey I call LOVE! Feel the blessing of knowing that you are evolved enough to know the difference between light and dark. Let there be light where there is dark. Together we can create peace, love and harmony in a world that needs us all right now. 
I send you all love! And for those that are in pain and in need, know that we are all uplifting you now at this very moment. 
I LOVE YOU! 

And remember:

Tuesday, January 20th, 2015 at 8:14am EST enters the New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius at 0 degrees my darlings! 
Now that we have entered with the Sun in Aquarius we will continue to have Venus in Aquarius until January 27th, Mars in Pisces until February 19th, Mercury in Aquarius until March 12th. However, from January 21st - February 11th we will be in Mercury Retrograde. I know, run for the hills!!! I will explain more in detail about Mercury Retrograde for those of you that are not familiar with this term. Saturn is still transiting in Sagittarius until June 14, 2015 and will return from September 17, 2015 until December 20, 2017. Jupiter is still in Leo until August 11, 2015 and Uranus has been in Aries since March 11, 2011. 
A lot has happened since the Full Moon on January 4th. Oh boy! I am sure some of you felt like 2015 started on a rocky note but that's only because life is going to get a whole lot sweeter for all of us!!! 
Most of you went through some eye opening experiences to say the least! A lot of truth being revealed that perhaps might have been painful for some. And that's okay, because new beginnings start NOW! 
The rest of you probably started the year feeling great and manifesting quite a few things and that's fabulous, because it's only going to continue. No matter how 2015 started, it's only going to get BETTER! This is a year of manifestation and money! So let's get this party started!!! 

A New Moon is when the Moon and Sun are aligned in the same zodiac sign. A New Moon means something new is born. It's the time to plant new seeds for the future. Your thoughts are powerful during a New Moon so it's important to think positive and visualize that which you want to manifest in the next 6 months. 
This New Moon comes super charged because it's a SuperMoon as well. A SuperMoon is when the moon is at its closest point to Earth. The Earth, Moon and Sun are all in a line with the Moon in its nearest approach to Earth! 
It is also said that a SuperMoon can create a bit of chaos in the world from wildfires, storms, major floods to even earthquakes and volcanos going haywire. This is the first of six SuperMoons this year. 
SuperMoons are also huge for amplifying the intensity of the moon it falls under. In this case since the SuperMoon falls on a New Moon in Aquarius, get ready to write those intentions and think BIG, because believe me, it will manifest for you!!! 

Mercury Retrograde begins Wednesday, January 21, 2015 - Wednesday, February 11, 2015. 
This happens about 3-4 times a year. Planet Mercury rules communication. So when planet Mercury slows down and goes backwards our lives goes into a big clusterfunk. When Mercury goes retrograde we experience nothing but miscommunication. All communication with friends, loved ones and coworkers goes haywire. You will notice where you start having communication problems or arguments with people for no reason. And that includes all technology as well. Your iPhone or galaxy will freeze, missing texts, or emails not working. So it's truly important not to purchase any new electronics during this time, as you will most likely have issues with it within 6 months. It's also highly recommended not to fly to a new destination. If you have to travel and it's to a place you have been to before, than that's okay. Mercury Retrograde is all about going back and tying up loose ends. So if there is a project you started a while back but never finished it, you will have Mercury now supporting you to finish. If there is a relationship or friendship that ended intensely and you would like to heal the situation and both go your separate ways, this is the perfect time to do so. It is always advised not to sign any paper work or contracts or start new partnerships during this time because once Mercury goes direct there will be some serious revising to be done. 
Keep in mind Mercury Retrograde effects begins a few weeks before and after. So look back in the past week where there might have been misunderstandings or electronic issues. And even after it goes direct on Feb.11th be aware that you will not be out of the zone entirely until 2 weeks later.  

This New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius occurs at 0 degrees which is amazing because any time a New Moon enters at 0 degrees it's basically like hitting a reset button. You now have a clear chance to reset and restart your life from scratch! You now have the power to start with a clean slate. Take this time to sit with yourself in silence and rethink and reconnect to your core values. Connect with who you truly are as an individual and let this inner self shine like a light in a dark room. Start your life over. This is the perfect time to let go of anything or anyone who has been keeping you stuck. Perfect time to end a bad habit, bad friend or bad boyfriend/girlfriend. Start fresh! Start a new lifestyle, a new career, a new way of thinking! The time is NOW! 

Aquarians are all about friendships, sister/brotherhood, they are risk takers, love group activities, group projects, social settings, trying new things, all about being a humanitarian and learning new ways to improve themselves emotionally, spiritually, physically and mentally. So what does this mean for you? Since this New Moon is all about the energy of Aquarius, all these different areas of your life will begin to arise within your subconscious and cause you to want to tap into all new things and create a conscious change. 
This is the time in which you should dig deep within your soul and be honest with yourself. Let yourself go and begin to think outside the box. You will probably feel like trying new things, explore different ways of thinking and begin to solve your problems in a different manner. This is all because you are tapped into the energy of Aquarius!
You will probably start feeling the urge to go out more with your friends and loved ones and be the social queen or king. 
Aquarians are not about the drama or emotional outbursts, so ladies make sure to keep your inner Bride of Chucky on lock down, and men keep your inner Norman Bates completely locked away and throw that key away! 

This is the perfect time to zip the lip in all areas of your life and listen to your friends, coworkers and loved ones. Listen as in go deep into understanding who they are as a person. This is not about listening and doing what they want you to do, as you will be in total rebellious mode but instead see this as an opportunity to truly get to know who you have around you. Sometimes life passes you by so quickly, you end up creating and attracting the wrong people around you who may not have your best interest at heart and that's always painful to discover when it's a bit too late. So instead pay attention and listen to people. Find a new way to understand how humans operate on a soul level so you can create change in your life. This is the time to go out of your way to give a helping hand to someone. Is there a charity organization you have been wanting to be a part of? Or perhaps you can take time from being on social media and go help out at a soup kitchen or at an animal shelter. Lots of people and animals need your love right now. 
This is the perfect time to disconnect yourself from being hypnotized to doing the same routine over and over again. Take time to call someone instead of texting, write and mail a real letter instead of an email, attend a social gathering and make new friends and possibly score a date instead of Tinder and Grinder. It's time to start something NEW. 
Let the Rebel Heart in you rise and be adventurous! Try that new vegan restaurant you wanted to try. Get out there and get to know your community. During this New Moon it is important for you to truly connect on a human level with people, to show people that love does still exist instead of technology overriding your everyday life. 
Some of you will find that this month you will begin to want different things. Single peeps wanting a relationship will start to like individuals that aren't normally their type at all. So go for it! Let this new urge for wanting new things take over your mind and body and allow it to create change in your life. Push yourself harder to get yourself out of your comfort zone. The only way you will shift the energy around you and receive something you've wanted. 
This is the time to remain positive, hopeful, optimistic and plan your future in a BIG way! 

The Asteroid Circe is also transiting and she is also known as a powerful and enchanting witch. The Asteroid Circe which was discovered in 1855 is named after this wonderful goddess. She is known as Asteroid number 34. 
This beautiful witch and goddess was known for bewitching men. She was all about the spells and potions.
So in her honor I have enclosed a few spells for you to do for this New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius. 

If you are looking to bring in something/someone into your life: 

• Begin by spending a few minutes everyday visualizing that which you want to bring in to your life. Daydream about it. Feel like it is already happening. Feel the emotions. See yourself with this person having a great time and being happy. See yourself having that item that you want and feeling the joy as if you already have it. Doing this everyday for a few minutes will let your subconscious know that this is what brings you happiness, therefore actually manifesting it into your life. 

• Try the cord spell I posted a while back: Witchy Success Spell

If you are looking to let go of something/someone in your life: 

• Write on paper what you want to let go and why. Make sure to write down everything you are letting go. Feel the emotions in your writing, feel all that you no longer desire leaving your body into the piece of paper you are writing on. Feel your body already feeling lighter because it's leaving your system. Then set the piece of paper on FIRE! Watch it while it burns. Feel it all leaving along with the piece of paper, fire and smoke. 
• Speak out loud everything you no longer want in your life and say it in front of an opened window. Feel it all leave out the window. It is now gone. 

In closing remember that this New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius is all about making room for innovation. So make time and room in your home to invite your energy healer, astrologer, psychic, spiritual friends of yours over for dinner who may just have a message for you that's not understandable to you right away but will turn out to be absolutely right on the money and correct. 
Aquarians: You are always one step ahead of others, but make sure to actually sit still during this New Moon because you will be able to see what needs improvement in your life and what is actually working for you. 
Leos: You may feel embarrassed and humiliated about something personal that was brought to light in front of others. But you won't feel embarrassed for long as this attention you are now receiving will bring in a larger group of friends that are more empathetic towards you. 
Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces: If you are feeling like you are running on empty or running out of ideas, it's time to start looking at your priorities and making a list of what works and what should change. 

I hope I was able to get across the importance of this New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius. It's important for you to set your intentions today and think BIG because this is a completely new beginning for you. You can now click that reset button and start fresh! Start something you have been wanting to do like a workout routine. Make time for yourself! 
I just started a Bikram Yoga 30 Day Challenge! Break yourself! Go ahead and cook that vegan recipe you have been wanting to try. If you need help don't be afraid to ask your friends. Also take time to go out of your way to help someone in need. Go that extra mile this moon cycle! 

I will be posting the Vision Board blog on Wednesday so come back and check in for some wonderful tips on how to create your best Vision Board in 2015! 
I decided to take one day of the month to pick a lucky winner from all the emails I receive asking for advice and post on the blog so if someone is going thru a similar situation they can connect to it. I will be giving a free card reading to this individual! So keep the emailings coming to [email protected]. 
I also started writing some fun and informative blogs for you all with some exciting topics! Stay tuned! 

Wishing you all a great New Moon SuperMoon in Aquarius and a great rest of the month! 
Life is like a box of vegan chocolate, you never know whatcha gonna get!!! So stay present and set those intentions!!!

And remember:

On Sunday, December 21, 2014 at 6:03pm EST the Sun will enter Capricorn and at that same time the Winter Solstice will occur. And then the New Moon in Capricorn will follow at 8:35pm EST. There will be 5 planets in Capricorn on this day: Sun, Moon, Pluto, Mercury and Venus. On top of that since December 12th until December 21st there has been a Gateway of Astral Transition opened leaving us to experience an Ascension process. Hanukkah also began on the evening of December 16th and will continue until the evening of the 24th leading us right into Christmas and straight onto Kwanzaa from December 26th thru January 1st! I mean can you believe this?! Between the Ascension energy causing awakenings and truth being exposed to miracles from Winter Solstice, Hanukkah and Christmas to having 5 planets going into Capricorn ready to rock our world, this is all leading to the simple fact that it's time for REBIRTH!!!!!!! 
New beginnings are clearly ahead whether we like it or not! So let's begin with this amazing break down of what's in store the next two weeks! It's time to dig deep in our souls, expose our garbage and manifest miracles!!! 

New Moon means something new is born, or the time to plant new seeds. It's a time where you want to act on pure instincts but keep in mind you may not have all the information revealed to you until the Full Moon. So that's why the New Moon is a risky time to start a new business or relationship because you are still not dealing with a full deck of cards. It is the perfect time however, to come up with new ideas, make new wishes and set your intentions. 
The New Moon is when the Moon and the Sun align in the same zodiac sign. 

Most of you probably felt strange starting in the past week beginning on December 12th all the way thru December 21st. And of course give and take a few days before and a few days after. 
The Gateway of Astral Transition is a portal available for you to download so much information that will allow your ascension period to occur beginning with a transformation in your life and some even experience some flares. 
Flares consist of your body and light body going through physical and/or emotional aches and pains that can bring up old issues or current issues that need to be dealt with. If you recently started your spiritual journey or still have issues you refuse to see or transform, you most likely experienced some flares this past week. For those that have been exposing and correcting their garbage, you most likely felt a blissful 5D experience! But keep in mind these flares are actually upgrading you and you are being downloaded with tons of insights and new information for your journey. Either way it's a positive thing!
This Gateway gives you an opportunity to create a shift in your life. Insights were probably already being downloaded for the past few weeks. Things that were unknown and unclear before are now being known and crystal clear. 
This is due to the parts in your brain that are actually being activated so you can evolve into what really is and not what we thought things were. You could have been stuck in a situation for years, but now you are able to see things in a whole new light.
A lot of the ascension symptoms include tingles and goosebumps throughout your body, vibrations being felt throughout your hands and legs or entire body. Some experience extreme headaches, loud ear ringing, memory loss, nausea, dizziness, extreme sensitivity, change in sleep patterns, or feeling different for reasons that you can't explain. 
And some simply experienced happiness, blissful state and manifestations. 
This is an exciting time because it means you are ascending into a higher state of consciousness, getting deeper into your spirituality and going into a higher frequency - like 3D straight to 5D!
This is an opportunity to create major transformation in your life. A time for you to dig deep and realize what you have to correct about yourself in order to truly ascend into your higher state of consciousness. Start getting in tuned and aligned with your light body. 

This New Moon is coming in at a perfect timing with all the energies that are available to you. The New Moon in Capricorn awakens your sense to have a rebirth in your life. A new beginning. This will awaken your ambitions, sense of restrictions and the need to have organization in your environment. 
This New Moon in Capricorn offers you the strength to recognize your responsibilities and the need to want to create change. This is the time to build a new life that includes being realistic and mature about what it is that your soul truly desires versus what your fantasy mind wants. You will feel the urge to want to use common sense, start preparing for the future and start being more disciplined about your goals and desires. 
It's important that you allow this energy to work through you and with you, instead of you refusing and not allowing nature to take its course, because then the Universe will have to pull the rug under your feet. And that's never pretty!
Capricorns can be a little bit too serious at times so remember no matter what you decide to do, always add love, compassion and joy to your life. 
The timing is so exciting for this New Moon in Capricorn for the simple fact that you are under the miracle energy of the Festival of Lights and Christmas. So use the energy available at your disposal to harvest and plant your best seeds! Meaning set your intentions for 2015 today!
 
The New Moon in Capricorn will also bring you hope and possibility, even if you were in Grinch mode and put off your holiday shopping, it will be easier to get "into the groove" (thanks Madonna) this week. You may even finally be in the holiday spirit around December 28th! Make sure you have all the information you need before embarking on a series of visits or travels. 
Taurus, Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius: You're feeling generous towards others, but make sure your giving really is without expectation. 
Gemini, Virgo and Pisces: This is a creative period for you, but it's also a time when you will feel overburdened or guilty (in a vague way). Give yourself a break and don't feel you need to "fill in the blanks" if there are silent moments in conversation. 

As you can see my darlings, there is a lot going on leading to 2015! 
Remember to not place pressure on buying gifts but rather concentrate on the giving part of the holiday. Sometimes it's about giving your time, love and light by volunteering at a soup kitchen, homeless shelter or even donating money and time to a animal rescue that you know is struggling or any charity organization of your choice. 
So take this time to prepare yourself to mentally state what you want to accomplish in 2015 and start mapping out items for your vision board. I highly recommend to take time on New Year's Day to create a vision board with pictures and words of all the things you want to manifest in the year 2015. 
Today start off by writing down your intentions along with the date and time by hand. Make sure to write 10 wishes down within eight hours following the exact time of the New Moon. 
Trust yourself and the Universe to know that whatever you write down WILL manifest if it's for your highest good! 
Get ready to manifest all your dreams and desires this holiday season! 

Tammie thank you for helping me with the 5 planets and exact times for this article! You're the best astrologer and sister ever! 

Love, blessings and gratitude to you all! Happy Holidays!!! 

And remember:

A New Moon enters Sagittarius today, Saturday, November 22, 2014 at 7:33 AM EST. Pull out your Maleficent staff because it's time to make things happen! Here comes a mystical New Moon! Great time to set your intentions for the next 6 months! 
On Saturday the Sun will be in Sagittarius until December 21st, Mercury in Scorpio until November 27th, Mars in Capricorn until December 4th, Venus in Sagittarius until December 10th, Saturn continues to be in Scorpio since October 5th, 2012 and will still transit the sign until 2015, Uranus in Aries since March 11th, 2011 and Jupiter in Leo since July 16th and will transit until August 11th, 2015. Let the games begin!!!

If you've been reading my blogs for awhile then you know the importance of the New Moon. But for those of you who just found me (welcome!), a New Moon represents new beginnings. It is when the Moon and the Sun align in the same zodiac sign. This one being Sagittarius. When a New Moon enters, it's absolutely important to write down your intentions with the extreme confidence and certainty that everything you are listing will manifest. By writing down your dreams and desires you are setting up the foundation for your future. The wheels are in motion once you have written down those intentions! 
Now let's get to the nitty gritty of the power of Sagittarius the Archer! 

Sagittarians are one of the luckiest people on the planet. Sagittarius is a lucky sign! Sagittarians most likely never truly worry and they definitely don't need to waste their energy and time worrying.
To find a true Sag you simply walk into a party and find the liveliest group and in the middle you will see the one and only, Sagittarius! They are the life of the party, free-spirit, positive and also have a big heart. People always gravitate towards a Sag's positive energy. They have big ideas and dreams. Their imagination is one of their strongest traits! A true Sag is very attuned with their body. They are all about the perfect body and eating healthy all while enjoying life. Whenever a Sag is aligned with feeling and looking great, they are at their happiest point. They always attract many loved ones as everyone wants to know the secret to their unlimited amount of happiness and energy. 
But the Sag is the one that is sometimes too honest for their own good! They tend to always have their foot in their mouth. By being over confident and blunt they feel they are living by their truth and honor code, which is not a bad thing but there are times they should zip it a little! But a Sag always means well and they are that positive friend to have by your side. They love a good challenge and will never cry for help or walk away from a fight. They are rebels against society and authorities. The only negative traits one can find with a Sagittarius are they can be blindly optimistic, careless, superficial and irresponsible.

Now that we are aware of the Sagittarius energy let's see what's in store with this New Moon and how you can use it to your advantage! 
Most of November was about dealing with change for most people. A lot of things ended: jobs, relationships, living environment and bad habits. But that was only for your highest good in order to receive new blessings arriving now. 
Some of you are currently going through those challenges as you are reading this. You may feel confused and stuck in some areas of your life. Understand that it feels this way in order for you to be able to receive new inspiration towards yourself and in life. They are no failures. That "failure" is just a wake up call. With this New Moon you now have the opportunity to draw all that positive energy that is available to you from now until the end of December! Work on trying your best to create positive thoughts in your head. Surround yourself with positive people that are there to uplift your energy and frequency. Make it a habit this month to work on your inner self. This New Moon will offer a chance for you to look deep inside yourself and see where you need certainty and clarity in. 
Work on being honest with yourself and others. Use that Sag energy to learn how to be honest by acknowledging yourself, your situation and being okay with it. Having the power of love and acceptance for who you are right now in this place and time. Dive into the power of love for yourself and for all of humanity. This is the time to truly give thanks for all your blessings no matter how small it seems. Use the luck that this Sagittarius moon brings and create a wonderful life for yourself by allowing yourself to receive all the blessings and light from the Universe. Start a new thought pattern of making the choice of not worrying so much about every little detail in your life. Lose yourself in the energy of being a free spirit soul! We have 24hrs in a day, choose your hours wisely. Avoid spending time worrying about money, work, relationships, etc; because you are only creating more of that chaos, which is just an illusion at the end of the day. Instead create positive thoughts and work on getting attuned with your body, so you can receive the messages and inspiration from the light! Why wait for January 1st to start a new healthy lifestyle? When you eat right, you think right!
If you are single, this is a great way to boost your confidence level and send out that healthy and happy frequency to the Universe, which will then in return send you some hot dates! If you are in a relationship, apply the same healthy mentality in order to create and maintain a positive and happy frequency in your relationship! Whenever you create change, your are changing your energy towards a positive direction.  
Use the imagination and inspiration that this Sag New Moon offers in order to create new ventures for yourself but also for others. You may have a great idea for a friend to incorporate in their new business plan, or you may just simply be able to direct your friend in a new healthy and positive direction by sharing your light with them! 
The minute the careless, superficial and irresponsible energy creeps in this month, kick it to the curb! Instead remind yourself that your thoughts create things! So stay positive in order to create a positive lifestyle! 
With the holidays approaching, go against your comfort zone level and reach out to a stranger and offer assistance. 
Share some of your blessings with others! Try volunteering at a homeless shelter, soup kitchen, animal shelter or foster a pet! When you share with others with no agenda attached, you receive so much more! 

This weekend under the New Moon you might feel the urge to escape, overindulge or even feel extremely sensual. Thanksgiving is around the corner so the frenzy energy will kick in, but this weekend you may feel the need to escape, be alone and look within. During Thanksgiving make sure not to be too brutally honest to a family member and send them in tears! Taurus, Leo and Aquarius: No matter how much "realness" or "truth" you are hearing, the whole story has yet to be told. Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Pisces: You may need to reconsider a family story - for example, perhaps what you were told really isn't what happened. Seek clarity as needed. 

There was a lot to share for the Sagittarius New Moon but that's only because I was guided to inform you that all the challenges and changes that some of you felt/feeling, aren't as bad as it seems. Some of you used that situation to correct some of your bad traits. Actually taking time to bite your lip instead of being so reactive. 
And that is all part of the growth process in life. Getting to that next level. 
Please know that December is about creating miracles and manifesting your desires! May still be a bit challenging for some but that's only because we are now building the foundation for an amazing and miraculous 2015! 
My darlings, 2015 is going to be a great year to manifest all your dreams and desires! So allow these changes you are resisting now to occur and let it flow into what will be a great new life for you! 
Write your intentions within 8hrs of the New Moon entering at 7:33am EST! Your intentions are key to making it all happen for you! 

I wish you all a great Thanksgiving and may you all allow your light to shine uh sooo bright!!! 
Happy New Moon in Sagittarius!

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.

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:
