FULL MOON - Cold Moon

 Merry meet, friends!

I love how these things sneak up on me. LOL I hope to be better organized with the planner next year. 

Speaking of, if you use a planner and would like some great stickers for Full/ New Moon or other Sabbats, check out Misty's shop on Etsy. I've been dealing with her for several years. Amazing customer service. You'll find her shop at WilsonWyldeStickerCo  I also order from MoonHausStudio

The Celtics call this the Cold Moon but other names include Snow Moon, Oak Moon, Twelfth Moon, Long Night Moon, or Bitter Moon. Whatever the name, this moon is ruled by Gemini.

As winter settles in, represented by the Hermit in Tarot, this is the time for rest and reflection. As we move towards Yule and the turn of the wheel, we will begin to see days lengthening and things begin to awaken. So rest up, reflect on the past year and think about what you want to discard from your life as we begin our journey to the New Moon... and what the next year may hold for you. 

I'll pull out a jar later for Moon Water. Temps are below freezing overnight so I will place the jar in the South window of my bedroom where the moon will bless the water the highest point of the night. 

Keep this affirmation in mind:

I am allowed to rest

I am allowed to grieve

MINDFUL MONDAY

 Merry Meet, friends!

Fall is in full swing here in the Ozarks. I love fall but not the very wet November. That said, I am grateful for the rain.

PREPARING FOR THE FULL MOON

 Merry meet, my friends.

I've been on the go since Samhain. I'll have a video for you tomorrow of a few items I picked up at the Enchanted Haven Open House in Rolla Missouri on Sunday. 

In the mean time, I wanted to remind you of the Super Moon tomorrow night. This is the Snow moon. American Colonists also refer to this as the Beaver Moon, recognizing this is the time when beaver retreat into their dens. The moon will be closest to the earth so it will appear larger and brighter. 

Here in the Ozarks we're to have beautiful conditions, albeit very chilly. I'll be charging moon water as well as a new tarot deck I purchased on Sunday. I tried to find a link. I'll keep looking. 

For more information on how to celebrate the Full Moon, check out this article from ABC.
