When you make a NYR, you're actually doing a type of mental magick. You begin by making a statement of magickal intent and then, theoretically, follow through and make it happen. Although this isn't the type of magick where spirits, magickal energy, or deities are the main means through which the magick

The Full Moon in Cancer occurred this morning, Friday, December 28 at 5:21 am Eastern (10:21 am GMT) at 7 degrees. Full Moons represent the culmination of those things that were begun with the New Moon (in this case the December 13 New Moon in Sagittarius), which found us evaluating our past and current selves.
