Monthly Astrological Magic for January

Last updated on: January 8, 2025 at 4:37 pm By StarLys

As we move into a new calendar year, like many of my colleagues on here I’m hoping to get back to some regular blogging. A regular monthly update focused on astrological magic is something I’ve been thinking of doing for ages, to aid my own practice as much as anything. So let’s see how I go! 2024 ended with a new, or dark, moon in Capricorn, a seed point for the structures we begin to build. As we move through... Read more

Moon Magic: living the cycles

Last updated on: September 16, 2024 at 2:12 pm By StarLys

Moon magic is perhaps one of the most well-known forms of contemporary paganism and witchcraft. As beginners, we learn the phases of the moon, which are fundamental to our magical practice. It’s also an obvious crossover with astrology – the moon is a key placement in the natal chart. Astrologers also use the phases of the moon and of all the planetary cycles to map changing energies and relationships. Cosmic relationships The monthly movement of the moon around the earth,...

The Magic of the Transpersonal Planets

Last updated on: July 23, 2024 at 12:41 pm By StarLys

I’ve written before about astrological magic, which usually focuses on the seven traditional planets. Today I want to consider the transpersonal planets – Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto – in magical and pagan practice. I’ve known pagans say they don’t believe in the outer planets, metaphorically speaking, because there is no established magical tradition for working with them. But astrologers know that they are powerful, and that when they show up for us, we are going through something big. They are... Read more

Jupiter in Gemini; cosmic shifts and magical potential

Last updated on: July 3, 2024 at 1:49 pm By StarLys

As we move out of one of the most intense Gemini seasons for a while, the Sun’s move into Cancer brings a chance to relax. We can move out of the head and into the heart, out of reason and into feeling. Summer Solstice is always a powerful time of shifting astrological energies. But this year has been an especially full-on Gemini season – did you feel it too? The shift of Jupiter from stable, rooted Taurus into busy Gemini... Read more

Season of Abundance; the astrology of Beltane

Last updated on: May 2, 2024 at 11:48 am By StarLys

0 Comments

Beltane, the season of abundance, falls approximately halfway through the Sun’s transit through Taurus. This is the sign of nature, of embodiment. We connect to the world through our physical senses, apt for Beltane energies of fertility and growth. Taurus is the sign of fixed earth but of course, the earth is never fixed. She is always in flux, ever-changing, growing and releasing. The Sun waxes ever more strongly as we move into the warmer seasons of the year. Taurus... Read more

It’s almost Imbolc and here in the northern hemisphere, the days are slowly lengthening and the light is beginning to return. The astrology of Imbolc is the idealism and vision of Aquarius. Imbolc falls halfway through the Sun’s journey through Aquarius. We find a sense of clarity and an ability to open up. We stretch mind and body, letting go of the sometimes stifling energy of winter. Aquarius is clear cold skies full of stars, the purity of a landscape... Read more

Tomorrow is Samhain here in the northern hemisphere, in the heart of Scorpio season. The astrology of Samhain is the astrology of Scorpio energy. This symbolism is extra strong right now with Mercury and Mars there too. The sign of fixed water takes us into the shadowy realms of our emotions.

The magic of the astrological moment

Last updated on: September 5, 2023 at 12:57 pm By StarLys

Astrology is a practice that speaks of time and the inherent symbolism in each moment. Magic is a way of empowering ourselves to create change. By bringing the two together with practices of astrological magic, each moment comes alive with possibilities. Tuning into the astrological moment is a way of moving beyond ourselves, of connecting with a cosmic moment. It reminds us that whilst we are mighty, we are also small. We are part of a creative becoming that is... Read more
