Flower Moon - May 5, 2023
Ready your gathering baskets and your best shoes for traipsing, witches - it's time to greet the Flower Moon!
Flower Moon
The Flower Moon gives us the fulfillment of the first flush of the Pink Moon, with fragrant blossoms greeting us at every turn and heralding the merry month of May. The floral name for this particular cycle is shared by a number of indigenous nations, include the Algonquin, Anishnaabe, and Dakota. Other names include Budding Moon and Frog Moon (Cree), Planting Moon (Dakota and Lakota), and the Moon of Mulberry (Choctaw).
European names for this moon include Milk Moon (Anglo-Saxon) and Hare Moon (Celtic, allegedly). Modern pagan circles sometimes call it the Grass Moon as well, since the flourishing of grasslands is more common in some areas than the appearance of flowers.
Notes: This year, there is a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse accompanying the Flower Moon. This is a barely visible shadow on the full moon which will be visible largely in the Eastern Hemisphere. Check your local astronomical forecast to see if it will be visible in your area.
This full moon peaks during daylight hours in the Western Hemisphere (around 1:35pm EDT), so the moon may appear to be full on both the nights of the 4th and 5th. It also falls about three-quarters through a Mercury Retrograde, so take whatever steps you deem appropriate.
What Does It Mean For Witches?
As we pass the spring rites and move toward the summer season, it's the perfect time to celebrate your growth and the ways in which you want to flourish. This is the season for romance and love, and not just that which comes when we put on flower crowns and go a-Maying. This is a time to love ourselves as much as each other, and to be reminded of our own beauty and strength. Remember the things you love about yourself and consciously take a moment to remind your loved ones how much you care for them.
It is also a time to celebrate fertility, be it animal, vegetable, mineral, or spiritual. Put new plans into action, start that project you've been meaning to do, embark on that new hobby or activity you wanted to try. If you have a long-term goal or a big project, now is the time to outline your path to completion and plan how to direct your energy so you don't burn out halfway through. Don't hold back - break through the walls of imposter syndrome and anxiety, indulge in your creative urges, and let your inspiration soar. What you choose to plant and nurture now determines what you will harvest later in the year. And above all, remember to have FUN!
What Witchy Things Can We Do?
If you've been feeling the urge to do some flower-related magic, now is the perfect time! Familiarize yourself with the wildflowers in your area and if possible, maybe grab your basket and scissors and go on a foraging trip. Remember to properly identify flowers before picking them, don't overharvest, and don't take anything from private property without permission or from national parks full stop. You can press the flowers with a notebook and something flat and heavy, or you can dry them in hanging bunches, in a cardboard tray, or in a low-temp oven for later use.
This is also a good opportunity to get your hands in the dirt and connect with the land where you live. If there are plants in your care, take a little time to do some pruning and watering. Check them for spring pests and treat where needed. Give them some love - talk to them, sing to them, encourage them to grow tall and strong and abundant. Bless them as you tend their plots and reaffirm your commitment to be a good caretaker.
As an exercise, try making flower crowns, garlands, bouquets, wreaths, or centerpieces using plant correspondences, flower language, or color magic for a desired effect. This can be done with real flowers or silk ones, depending on how long you want to keep them around. Try your hand at making flower water with roses or other blooms - it makes a wonderful base for moon water!
Experiment with recipes for dishes and drinks that use edible flowers too! Whether it's color-changing butterfly peaflower tea, sweet and peppery nasturtium, adorable pressed pansy shortbread cookies, or the tried-and-true comforts of chamomile, flowers have many tasty secrets to offer. Don't be afraid to add botanicals to your health and beauty routine as well! (Just make sure nothing's going to negatively interact with your meds or irritate a pre-existing condition. Safety first!)
Whether you do so with your near-and-dear, your witchy circle, or by yourself, celebrate everything that blooms - including you!
Happy Flower Moon, witches! 🌕🌼

I think Toriel would need some time to grasp the concept.
Notes: Feel free to use, change or criticize those. I am terrible at pixelart so i wonder how it would work (probably would need a lot of changes)
...anyway, off for a week, enjoy a slice of Butterscotch-Cinnamon Pie.

My people would say, when your garden is blessed by many pollinators, your home is truly blessed.
I can't wait to plant more flowers for them! My blossoms bring all the bees to the yard, and they're like buzzzzzzz.

Love and Beauty Hair Spritz🌹
Tumblr media
Rose water, rose water, oh how I love rose water. This post is about rose water--well, water in general--and natural hair. And hair magic, of course! My natural hair journey has been...a bit of a trip. I tried all kinds of fancy products, methods, creams, oils, butters. Nothing really worked (on it's own, anyway). My hair was always dry, brittle and thinning. It’s still recovering, to be completely honest, but I’ve finally learned the secret to keep my hair soft, and glowing and healthy.
Water.
Water, water, water. Everyone will tell you that 4c hair loves water, but I don’t think they emphasize quite enough how important it is to make sure your hair is getting pretty much drenched at least once a week. I have a weekly wash day with a hydrating shampoo. From there, I deep condition with a good conditioner and oils and heat, and then seal it with a nice hair butter or cream (I’m using camille rose atm and I'ma big fan). From there I put it into 4-8 braids, and it’ll be soft, much easier to manage, and hold styles much better. For a few years I never knew my hair could be soft. And once I knew that, and knew how to keep my hair healthy, I felt safe playing with magic mixtures and tinctures to use on it. And that’s where rose water comes in.
Uses of Rosewater
Rose water is great. It smells nice, it looks nice in a glass bottle on your vanity, it’s simple to make and it’s great for you too. I love to use it on my face, and it’s nice to spritz on your sheets so you can lounge in bed like a 1950s movie star. It’s great for your hair too! It promotes growth, is anti-inflammatory and has a high vitamin content to boot. Plus, roses and magic? A match made in heaven.
Tumblr media
Of course they can be used in love magic, so if you’re looking to attract that special someone, you’re already on the right track. Some people say roses can be used to substitute almost any flower in a spell, so it’s good as a base for almost any other spell you can think of as well. It’s perfect for glamour spells, too. Want to look beautiful? More confident? Looking to attract the right kind of attention? Rose water in your hair is a great place to start. Below is my favorite rose water hair spritz for my thirsty, thirsty 4c hair (make sure you moisturize those ends!!). There’s a couple of suggestions afterwards, too! You’ll want to start with rose water as your base, add any other liquids of your choice in smaller amounts, and some drops of your favorite hair oil. Depending on the oil you use, this would make a great facial spritz, too!
Bunny's Beauty Water
2 parts Rose Water (love, beauty)
1 part Aloe Vera Juice (success, protection, love)
A few drops of sweet almond oil (wealth, abundance, love)
A few drops of vanilla extract (love, beauty)
Avocado oil (love, beauty)
A few drops of jojoba oil (love)
Spoonful of coconut oil if you like!
Mix all of this together in a spray bottle, shake it up and use on your hair at least once a day, more likely twice. If you leave out the coconut oil, it would make an amazing face spritzer as well!
(I'm cleaning up my blog and reposting some of my spells/etc that were once hosted on my website.💕)
