To help harness the energy of the supermoon, or any full moon, to help your wishes come true, here’s a fun little project you can do by yourself or with your witchy friends. This also makes a nice activity for esbats that doesn’t require a lot of setup.
Materials:
Small Jar with tight-fitting lid
White or Black candle
Incense of your choice
Herbs and Items representing your wish
Find a clear space to work. Make sure it’s free of fire hazards. If possible, try to work near a window through which you can see the moon. (If you don’t have one, that’s all right too, since you’ll be setting the jar out for the moonlight when finished.) Light your candle and choice of incense and get to work.
Select herbs and trinkets which fit inside the jar to represent your wish. For example, if your wish is for money or prosperity, you might include coins or metallic glitter or small craft gems. If your wish is for health, you might include vitamin pills or a charm representing medicine.
Check your books for herbs or crystals that correspond to your wish as well, to give the jar plenty of oomph. The contents of the jar can be whatever you want. Use the materials that resonate best with you.
Some basic herbs for wishmaking include:
Bamboo
Bay Leaf
Beech
Black Walnut
Blue Violet
Buckthorn
Chicory Root
Dandelion Seeds
Dogwood Petals
Lotus Root
Nutmeg
Peppermint
Pomegranate
Sage Leaf (any color)
Sandalwood
Spearmint
Straw
Sunflower
Tonka Bean
Walnut
Willow Bark or Leaves
Once your jar is complete, drip three drops of wax from the candle into the jar and circle the mouth of the jar three times with the incense. Then seal the jar and place the jar somewhere that it will be touched by the light of the full moon and leave it overnight.
The jar should work for about a month, or slightly longer if you’re working with a supermoon. When the next full moon rolls around, you can recharge the jar by leaving it out overnight again, or make a new jar with a new wish.
Happy Witching!
Bringing this back since we’re expecting another supermoon at the end of the month! Go forth and witch it up, my darlings!
There will be a whopping SIX planets in Capricorn. The Sun, Moon, and Mercury will make a square to Uranus, suggesting that we’ll be tempted to make a responsible, structured change during this new moon that will propel us toward whatever significant goals that we have. Mars in Scorpio makes a conjunction to Jupiter in Scorpio, meaning that we’ll have ample opportunity to pursue these changes along with the drive and energy to actually follow through successfully.
Also notable to mention is that those born during the Uranus/Neptune conjunction in Capricorn will have transiting Pluto in Capricorn conjunct their natal Uranus and Neptune, along with the transiting Sun, Moon, and Mercury, further demonstrating that this is a time for innovation and making strides to achieve our ideals and dreams. The same goes for if you have Saturn in Capricorn.
Think about what you want from your life, and prepare for this new moon in whatever way you see fit. New moons are good for “new beginnings”, so now is the cosmic time to start something you haven’t had the courage to pursue before. It’s going to be potent.

Deadass ^^^ it’s such a perfect astrological set up before classes start again.
“We may have been starved of supermoons in 2017, but January 2018 will offer two. Spot the Wolf Moon onJanuary 2, and a rare “blue” supermoon on January 31.”
THREE CONSECUTIVE SUPERMOONS
THE THIRD ONE BEING A BLUE MOON
Get ready, witches. Winter is coming.
There’s also a lunar eclipse on January 31st! This is a crazy special moon :0
Supermoon = moon is full while it’s closest to Earth in its orbit (making it bigger and brighter than usual)
Blue Moon = when a second full moon occurs within the same month as the one prior (each calendar month normally only has 1 full moon)
Lunar Eclipse = when the Sun, Earth, and Moon align perfectly (in that order) so that the sunlight reflected onto a full moon is eclipsed by the earth; thus, the full moon becomes dark for a short while
Three rare lunar events will be occurring on the same night.
The time for revolution is nigh
I don’t know if I should be thrilled by this, or terrified :O
