Based on the energies of the day, the moon phase and the zodiac the moon is in…


Cancer to Leo
Blessed Samhain & Happy Halloween!


Please refer to the Moon Magic course and The Moon and the Zodiac course on this blog for additional details. With the knowledge of those courses within us – here’s how today’s energies align… May you find a way to work with today’s energies to help you get closer to your goal, achieve what you desire, protect yourself or rid things that no longer align with you.


Day – Saturday lends energies to banishing, can be associated with death but not necessarily physical death – it could be the “death” of something you want gone or the end of something that no longer serves your best interests/purposes.


Zodiac – The moon starts out in Cancer today. The Moon in Cancer lends energies towards efforts around your home and domestic life.

At 4:59pm Eastern Time, the moon moves out of Cancer and goes Void of Course.

At 11:18pm Eastern Time, the moon moves into Leo. The moon in Leo lends energies to efforts regarding authority, power over others, courage, fertility or childbirth.


Moon – The moon is in a Waning Gibbous. This energy lends towards efforts of discarding, banishment, and releasing the things which no longer serve your highest purposes. When the moon goes waning, our intentions have to be set just so that we are achieving what we want, not working against ourselves.


So today – Combine the discarding and banishing energies of the Waning Moon with Saturday’s “Death” energy and Cancer for a “double-dismissal” boost to help you banish, discard, remove or release anything that is blocking or negatively impacting your domestic and home life.

Have those efforts wrapped up before the moon moves out of Cancer and goes Void of Course. Even though the moon moves into Leo later tonight, take the rest of the evening to rest, recharge and reflect.

Whatever you choose to do today, be clear with your intention and mindful with your words. Happy Manifesting!


Step across the threshold and welcome the Witches’ New Year with a reflection tailored for the wheel turning this October 31, 2026:

Samhain 2026: Walking the Threshold

As the final harvest is gathered and the dark half of the year officially takes hold, we step into Samhain—the most sacred turning point on the Wheel of the Year. Rooted in ancient Celtic tradition, this is the profound night when the veil between our world and the spirit realm grows thinnest, inviting us to honor our ancestors, embrace deep shadow work, and release what no longer serves us before we move into the quiet stillness of winter.

The Energies at Play

  • Saturday’s Death & Release Energies: Falling on a Saturday—traditionally governed by Saturn, the planet of boundaries, structure, and karmic finality—this year’s observance amplifies the archetype of the Death card. It’s a powerful cosmic green light to lay old cycles to rest, cut cords with intention, and clear out the clutter of your inner and outer worlds.
  • The Waning Gibbous Moon (Cancer to Leo): The moon begins its day holding the protective, emotional depths of intuitive Cancer before shifting into bold, radiant Leo. This lunar bridge asks us to first nurture our roots and tend to our internal sanctuary, then step forward into the emerging dark with courageous heart-led sovereignty and fierce self-trust.
