Lady Jesamyn Angelica’s Oracular Musings for the Week of October 27th
Sun in Scorpio
Season: Mabontide transitioning into Samhaintide

Moon Passages:
10/27-10/30: Waning Crescent Moon in Virgo, void-of-course Virgo, and in Libra
10/31: Samhain High Holyday: Dark Moon in Libra, void-of-course Libra, and in Scorpio
11/1: Lunar Samhain High Holyday: New Moon in Scorpio
11/2: Waxing Crescent Moon in Scorpio, void-of-course Scorpio, and in Sagittarius

Hold onto your convictions and your courage this week, my Loves, and yet do this with as much joy as you can possibly hold.

This is a big week with both a Dark Moon Samhain High Holiday and the Lunar Samhain New Moon High Holyday happening within a two-day span. The Ancestors are at the gates bearing wisdom and messages for us. Are you ready to listen? What we hear now could change the course of our entire lives.
We have been honing our craft for so long now, learning, practicing, and training. Now, after seemingly forever, the time is finally ideal for us to take these skills that we have so diligently developed and set out upon our own path, one which is new and untrod.

And this is very much cause for celebration, my friends, so do take a moment—or more!—to honor and acknowledge yourself, perhaps with friends, family, and/or those who have supported you with unwavering encouragement and love. Then, boldly put yourself out on the trail and see where it leads!

Beloveds, the Sun will move into this watery sign today at 3:15 p.m. Temple time (PDT).

Let’s make some magick!

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Waning Moon Blessings, Beloved Spiritual Family,

Happy final day of Libra Season! Our Sun will move into the watery sign of Scorpio tomorrow at 3:15 p.m. Temple time (PDT).

The nights continue to lengthen as the veil Between the Worlds grows ever thinner. This is a very powerful week, Dear Ones, as we dive deeply into all things Scorpio and prepare ourselves for the High Holydays of Samhain and Lunar Samhain, which arrive near the end of next week.

Join us in The Women's Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment as we explore these energies, continue our sacred work with our Benevolent Ancestors, and prepare our magick for this sacred time of year.

💖 Praise from a Treasured Initiate: “I feel like my magic woke back up. I had lost my spark and working through the Mystery School has helped me to reclaim it..” ~T.H.💖

It's truly the Season of the Witch! Is it time for you to join us, Dear Sisters? If you are hearing the call, we stand ready to receive you into our cherished circle!

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Lady Jesamyn Angelica’s Oracular Musings for the Week of October 20th
Sun in Libra moving into Sun in Scorpio on Tuesday
Season: Mabontide

Moon Passages:
10/20-10/23: Waning Gibbous Moon in Gemini, void-of-course Gemini, in Cancer, void-of-course Cancer, and in Leo
10/24: Waning Half Moon in Leo
10/25-10/26: Waning Crescent Moon in Leo, void-of-course Leo, and in Virgo

Get ready, Dear Ones, because we are called to go on a mission during this final full week of Mabontide as the Sun moves from airy Libra into watery Scorpio. And this is not just any call, but a call to *service*.

This is a time to be aware of what is happening around us, and to step in with a helping hand when needed…with full consent, of course! This is not about over-giving or martyrdom, but about remembering our interdependence, our belonging, and our connection to and with All That Is.

As the Sun’s energies move from one frequency into another, and as our Lady Luna wanes, let us remember that we are not alone, that we are all in this together.

And so let us ride forth beside one another, as One, with open hearts and open minds, ready to place our minds, our hands, and our skills—both hard-won and inborn—into service for community, into service for That Which is Greater. With our unabashed passions guiding us and our diligence firmly holding us, it is time to make the great changes the world needs to reach the highest good!

“Sorrow at parting is only for those of us who remain in this realm, and our sadness is completely perfect and there is absolutely nothing at all wrong with it—it is natural to miss our Loved Ones when they have moved into the next dimension.

It is natural to grieve, to break down, to feel pain, to require love and support. It is natural to feel a deep sense of loss, a lack of grounding, a feeling of the bottom falling out from beneath our feet.

As I always say: Grief is for the living. This is our burden to bear, and we all grieve differently.”

~ Excerpted from The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment, Moon 12

With LOVE at the Center,
Lady Jesamyn

“Like birth, death is a Holy Mystery, and it is impossible to truly understand a Mystery without walking through it ourselves. Birth is the first Initiation of the body our Souls inhabit in this realm, Death is the final one—no one can experience these Initiations for us. Each being’s Initiations are different.

No matter what society seems to pressure us to believe, death is completely, 100% natural and organic.

Death is unavoidable. Death is necessary. Just as the Moon is reborn each cycle, so are we. Just as the seasons return, so do we.” ~ Excerpted from The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment, Moon 12

“Ancestor reverence has its foundations in respect and love for those who have passed, and appears in some way in all documented cultures from Asia to Europe to Africa to South America, and beyond.

Tamás David-Barrett and James Carney say that ancient ancestor veneration might have ‘served a group coordination role during human evolution.’ This means that Ancestor veneration most likely goes back far before recorded herstory/history.”

~Excerpted from Moon 11, The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Happy Autumnal Full Moon to one and all!

With Love,
Lady Jesamyn

“An ongoing personal practice of Ancestor reverence can keep us connected to the never-ending cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, our past, and our future for one day we, too, will be Ancestors.

Our Ancestors are bound to us through blood and/or love, and we can take comfort in these eternal relationships. They remind us that we are all connected, We Are All One. Our relationships with our Beloved Ancestors do not end at death. The Wheel of Time perpetually turns and our souls live on.

What is remembered, lives.”

~Excerpted from Moon 11, The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Dear Ones,

The Full Moon in Aries is coming, the veil Between the Worlds is thinning, and the Ancestors are asking for our attention.

What messages will they have for us this year?

💖 Praise from a Cherished Initiate: “I appreciated the fact that I was able to take my time with each moonplay. I did not feel pressured to finish in exactly one month, and with dealing with everyday muggle things like work and other priorities, it eased my mind and heart during stressful times.” ~B.P. 💖

Sisters, we invite you to join us this week in The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment as we celebrate this lunar phase, discuss grief and mourning, and honor Those Who Came Before.

What is remembered, lives!

Lady Jesamyn Angelica’s Oracular Musings for the Week of October 13th
Sun in Libra
Season: Mabontide

Moon Passages:
10/13-10/16: Waxing Gibbous Moon in Aquarius, void-of-course Aquarius, in Pisces, void-of-course Pisces, and in Aries
10/17: Full Moon in Aries; Waning Gibbous Moon in void-of-course Aries and in Ta**us
10/18-10/19: Waning Gibbous Moon in Ta**us, void-of-course Ta**us, and in Gemini

We are headed towards the Full Moon again this week, my Loves, and this one is in fiery, passionate Aries, the sign of the “Go-Getter”. What are you are you most excited and juiced up about right now…and are you willing to be both energetic and steadfast in bringing it into reality?

There is a clarion call for us to step out from behind ourselves right now, to bravely permit the world to see *who we truly are* and what means the most to us. We must allow the masks we have been wearing to fall off into the transformative fire, to allow our inner light to shine out, to allow the once-secret depths of our hearts to open.

I know we protect ourselves because we have been hurt before. I am with you, Dear Ones! We must remember our belonging this week, even in the face of those who don’t like us. Not everyone will like us and this is okay! This is not a reason to hide our authentic selves from the world.

We have worked so hard to be where we are today. Look back three years, five years, ten years and see how far you have come! Your dedication and devotion to the Great Work of Life is bringing fruitfulness and abundance now, here in this time between the Second and Third Harvests. Let’s support ourselves and support one another, stepping both together and individually into a beautiful flow of both giving and receiving.

(Tools of the Week: Happy Tarot by Serena Ficca: www.loscarabeo.com; and Guides of the Hidden Realms Oracle by Colette Baron-Reid: http://colettebaronreid.com)

“The Crone could never be the Wisewoman without the benefit of her years, her experiences, her successes, her failures—she has seen, and lived through, it all. The Crone’s wisdom lies within, it is the deep-knowing that only comes of maturity and experience. This wisdom, knowing, and understanding is now an intrinsic part of who she is and is one of her greatest gifts and assets if only we allow her to share it with us.”

~Excerpted from Moon 11, The Women’s Mystery School of Magick & Empowerment

How do *you* honor the wisdom of the Crone, Beloveds?

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Blessed be our Elders! Blessed be our Wisdom Keepers! Blessed be our Crones!

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn

We are one week from the Moon’s Fullness, Dear Ones! Let’s move into deeper alignment with Her energies today.

With Love,
Lady Jesamyn

Let us remember honor and respect for our Elder Sisters. Let us reclaim the word Crone as sacred and holy. Let us reclaim Crone as a Word of Power.

Blessed be the Crone!

Always Love,
Lady Jesamyn
