🌙 Once in a blue moon...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) entering the magic of May 04.29.2026 Last Sunday, I told you this is a full moon week - and honestly it is one of the most beautifully energetic moons of the year. It starts the moon in all her splendor so she can book end it with the magic of a blue moon. Yes, the kind Smurfs were born on. Those witchy little guys were onto something.(I mean, did you ever think about their hats?!?)Anyways, two full moons in one calendar month are pretty rare -...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Let's live like the Owens Sisters! 04.22.2026 In case you haven't already heard (though I'm sure you have) - Practical Magic 2 comes out in September. Yeah... I'm over the moon excited - and I'm sure you are, too! As someone who has basically made the movie her entire personality, you know I'm gonna be there with witch's bells on. But... that's still 149 days away. So what if instead of waiting, we decided to embrace this summer as the Season of...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Stocking up on everyday essentials... 04.15.2026 This week's new moon asks you to rest and recharge... so we can tackle whatever life throws at us. And I know that it's been a LOT lately. But, if you're rooted and ready, then it's a lot easier to handle whatever comes your way. Prepared as protection, not panic... that's my goal. I hope it's your goal, too. So this week I'm brining back another Rooted + Ready post, because last week's was so well...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Are you Rooted + Ready? 04.08.2026 Happy Wednesday, my friend! A year ago I started a series on my blog, Rooted + Ready. Originally it was a plan to help you be prepared for a jump in prices due to tariffs, but with all the craziness going on in Iran right now, I feel like it's time to revisit. Because, I don't know about you, but it feels like every damn week there's another reason that I'm stressed out over with the madman in the oval office....

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Surfing the Big Surge 04.05.2026 Happy Sunday, my friend! Another week, another weekly mooncast. I got so much great feedback from last week's email - and I truly appreciate you reading, listening and taking a few moments of your day to hang out with me. This week I'm back with sharing more of how you can work with the energy of this week's last quarter moon - and it's big surge energy. It's the time to tackle those big tasks and get shit done!...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) No April Foolin' around 04.01.2026 I took a poll recently on Instagram and the results did not shock me: We're all fucking exhausted. We've been hit hard every day with narcissistic abuse by our own government in an effort to destroy our society. But that only works if we let it. So our job in these insane times is to remember that the main thing that defeats this bullshit is to respond with action rather than to react in despair. If you've been...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Just feed people 03.25.2026 Last weekend was magical... We had our first retreat of the year for Soft Life Society - and honestly it was incredible to spend a weekend with a house full of like-minded souls who were there to support each other and just be together to heal as a coven. But it also sparked a lot of interesting conversations - like the one I'm sharing today on Substack. I missed the Sunday post and email because I was just too in the...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) And so it begins 03.18.2026 I adore spring. It's truly my favorite season. Maybe because I was born on the first day of spring? Perhaps. Or maybe it's because that's the world feels most at balance between the darkness and the light. But mostly, it's because I feel like the new year truly does begin in spring. Nothing is supposed to be "fresh and new" while the world is immersed in darkness. Spring is when the world comes back to life. New on...

The Art of Making Life Magical(the newsletter) Weaving intention into the every day 03.15.2026 The way you do anything is the way you do everything... We've all heard this a million times in a million different ways, because it's an absolute truth. But witches know it's because that's the heart of intention. And intention is everything. When you do things with great intention, that's how you direct your energy on purpose and truly make the most of your craft. So it only makes sense to...
