Sagittarius Season
Sagittarius season provides the perfect backdrop for stepping out of your comfort zone, trying new things, and broadening your mind. Here are a few ways to harness this energy in your own life:
Pluto in Aquarius: You Say You Want a Revolution?
On November 19, 2024, Pluto, the planet of transformation, regeneration, and power, will re-enter Aquarius, marking the beginning of a profound 20-year cycle that will shape the collective consciousness and redefine our individual paths. This celestial shift invites us to examine societal structures, embrace innovative ideas, and align ourselves with the collective vision for humanity. The movement of Pluto into Aquarius is nothing short of revolutionary, offering an unparalleled opportunity for growth, evolution, and reimagining our shared future.
Scorpio Season
Scorpio is the sign of rebirth and renewal. This is an ideal time to shed old habits, patterns, and ways of thinking that no longer serve your highest good. Transformation often comes after facing something difficult, but the result is empowerment and growth.
Hunter Moon Rituals
The energy of the Hunter’s Moon is fleeting, but its impact can be lasting. Take this opportunity to clear the way for your goals and dreams. Whether through ritual magic, reiki, or a personal reading, Divinely Designed Astro is here to guide you on your journey to clarity and manifestation.
Egyptian Magic
Isis is the Great Mother. Apophis is the Great Serpent, the destructive principle, and represents Death. Osiris is the regenerative principle, representing Resurrection
Grimoires
Some people call a grimoire a book of spells or a book of shadows. The name you choose is less important than the purpose of the book, which is to chart your progress as you work magic and ascend to your own highest and most divine self. In that sense, it is a history book and you can look back at any phase or phases and see your progress.
Cutting Cords
There are many different rites of protection that people will choose based upon their particular magic or meditational practice. Just like with any hexing spells, I would caution you to use protection spells sparingly and for the right reasons. Don’t use them to push the world away. Use them to encourage the best of the world to share your life with and to weed out anything toxic and unhealthy.
Black Moon Lilith
Black Moon Lilith represents our most primitive urges and impulses, our repressed sexuality and the darkest parts of our psyche. She may also reveal hidden fantasies and fetishes.
Root and Folk Magic
What traditions are acceptable for you to practice? Obviously, start with the ones that you inherit. If other traditions come naturally into your lives – meaning that friends or loved ones bring them in, honor them and utilize them if it feels appropriate. If you want to learn others, ask for help.
The Magic of Autumn Herbs
Autumn is a time of reflection, release, and renewal. By incorporating seasonal herbs into your magic and kitchen witchery, you align yourself with the natural rhythms of the season. These herbs are more than just ingredients; they are powerful allies that help us navigate the changing landscape of our lives. Embrace their magic, and let them guide you through this enchanting season.
Tis the Season for a Personal Reading
As we transition into a new season, the cosmic energies are in flux. This is a time for realignment, reflection, and personal transformation. There’s no better time to get a Personal Reading than right now, as the shifts in the stars can directly impact your life path. Lisa’s readings can help you harness the seasonal energy to make empowered decisions and realign with your true purpose.
Libra Season
We will explore the astrological themes of Libra season, how to harness its energy using Reiki and Tarot, and how to invite more balance and harmony into your life through spiritual practices.
Equinox
The Autumn Equinox, occurring this September 22, marks a moment of perfect balance between light and dark as day and night stand equal in length. This pivotal point in the wheel of the year invites us to seek harmony within ourselves, embracing the changing season and the natural shift toward introspection. As we prepare to move from the warmth and vibrancy of summer into the quieter, reflective energy of autumn, the Equinox offers a powerful opportunity to recalibrate our minds, bodies, and spirits.
Shadow Work And The Waning Moon
The waning moon’s energy is one of release and introspection. This phase is ideal for letting go of what no longer serves us—old habits, past hurts, and emotional blocks. It’s a time to slow down, reflect, and engage in deep healing practices that address not just the physical body, but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of our being.
Building Altars
When creating your Sacred Space, you get to define what is sacred and you get to define what is Space.
Ancestral Karma
There are many ways that we can face the karma and the trauma and the wrongs of past generations and find ways that we can heal them for ourselves, for our families, and even for those who lived a long time ago. It starts with compassion, even for the worst wrongs. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.
