IVY SANCTUM | Ms. Ivy, Witch Healer

Hello dear magickal beings! 💫

I wanted to give you a super 🔥hot🔥 recommendation today on an absolute must read, if you have not heard about it before:

The book “Many Lives, Many Masters” by Dr. Brian L. Weiss.

My dear sister gifted it to me last week as we were talking about a regression therapy I went through a few years back, in which I realized that my cat Lilly, that I got by very strong intuition (I'll tell you at the end) was actually my son from a past life.

So, it's is a fascinating book that explores the concept of past lives and reincarnation. It's based on Dr. Weiss’s real-life experiences with a patient named Catherine, who began recalling past lives under hypnosis. Her memories helped address her present-day anxieties and phobias, leading to amazing healing as well as unbelievable development of her intuitive abilities.

Dr. Weiss, who, as expected from an academic scientist, was initially very skeptic, becomes convinced of the reality of reincarnation and the existence of spiritual beings called “Masters” who provide wisdom and guidance through Catherine. The book delves into themes of spiritual growth, the continuous journey of the soul, and the interconnectedness of all beings.

It’s a must read for anyone interested in spirituality, healing, and the mysteries of the human soul and life after death.

I've been playing around with the thought of learning Quantum Healing ever since my regression therapy session and learning about Dolores Cannon's work. Now I have no doubt I just have to do it very soon.

Oh and regarding how I got my sweet kitty Lilly: It was literally a situation where I saw her photo, after 3 years of thinking about bringing a cat and looking online on a weekly basis at least, I immediately knew - "she's mine!!!" 😻 And I'm not one that makes big decisions on a whim, but I just immediately called the person and went to see her. And he brought her to me the day later. I also immediately knew her name as soon as she came out of his bag in my apartment, no idea where it came to me from.

And regarding this part in the regression session - i was a sort of little tribe's leader in Peru, and when I saw this sweet 6 year old boy in front of me, it was as if my heart jumped out of my chest and I started crying so much I couldn't stop. The therapist asked me why I was crying so much and I just said "He's my son, I missed him so much". Such an overwhelming experience. And then I said that Lilly was him.

And I was surprised at how this knowing just came out of me, but then, I've always called her my child :) And when my mom first saw me holding her she said, "you're holding her like she's your baby", and started calling her 'the granddaughter' hehe...

So that's one of my past lives stories, and this book just wowed me and really reinforced everything I went through in this session, and in some other intuitive experiences.

Did you ever go through any kind of hypnosis therapy or had any recollection of a past life? I'm super curious to hear your experiences!

IVY SANCTUM – Reality Alchemy

Mabon, one of the eight Sabbats in the Wheel of the Year, marks the second harvest and the Autumn Equinox 🍁

a time of balance, as day and night are of equal length.

This sacred moment invites us to reflect on the harmony between light and dark ☯️ both in nature and within ourselves.

Traditionally, pagans and witches honor this time by giving thanks for the harvest’s abundance, while also preparing for the darker half of the year.

And just as the leaves fall and the days shorten, we are reminded of the natural cycle of release and renewal,

a powerful time for both physical and spiritual healing.

By attuning to the Earth’s rhythms, we open ourselves to the magick of transformation that comes with embracing the natural flow of life. 🍂

Mabon's Blessings to you magickal beings! 💜🧡

Tomorrow-ish, on September 17-18, the Harvest Moon will rise, accompanied by a partial lunar eclipse and a supermoon. Though not a dramatic full eclipse or a huge supermoon, their influence will definitely be felt.

Eclipses have a way of stirring up what’s hidden beneath the surface. This one in particular, happening in the water sign of Pisces, brings the energy of release, intuition, and heightened emotional awareness. If you’ve felt stuck, uncertain, or off balance, this eclipse may offer the insight you’ve been missing.

What many don’t realize is that lunar eclipses are considered to be up to three times more intense than regular full moons, and the supermoon adds even more to that potency. The effects of this one can ripple for weeks, even months, and might prompt sudden revelations or emotional shifts. This energy can force you to confront things you've been avoiding—whether it’s a limiting belief, an old habit, or a relationship that no longer serves you.

The Harvest Moon traditionally marks a time of reaping what you’ve sown, both literally and metaphorically. But with the eclipse, this “harvest” could bring unexpected realizations or changes that push you toward growth in ways you hadn’t anticipated.

This is a moon that asks you to let go of control. Pisces' energy is about embracing the flow and accepting that sometimes, the most powerful transformations come from surrendering to the process.

How can we work with this energy?

It’s a good time for us witches to focus on cleansing and protection rituals, and to meditate or use divination practices to uncover what’s been lingering in the subconscious.

Use this opportunity to navigate through what you’ve been avoiding, and trust that any truths revealed are meant to guide you toward personal and spiritual growth.

Today, the 9/9, is a powerful time in the year for transformation, manifestation, and spiritual growth.

In numerology, 9 is the number of completion, ending - It's a day of closures preparing us for new beginnings. Like the waning phases of the moon cycle, it is similarly a time to let go and say a final goodbye to things that no longer serve us, and to make room and prepare for what we do want in our lives.

✍️ Especially under the Virgo sign, it's a great time to start a new journal full of lists of intentions for manifestation.

When you're working on a ritual of manifesting, talking, or writing about things you want, make sure that:

💠 A.

You're speaking in PRESENT tense, not future: you're wealthy now, you're in a great relationship now, you're in your dream home right now. You want to feel those feelings in the present moment to "get in the vortex", to match your frequency with thw things you want.

💠 B.

Be as specific as you can about every little detail in your manifestations to get yourself even more excited, vibing even higher, matching even more precisely to the frequency of having everything that your want. Envision all your dreams manifesting in your life and hold in this vibration for as long as you can.

💠 C.

When concluding a manifestation ritual, send this high vibration to the universe, while detaching from the specific details. When we look to manifest, we're not truly looking specifically for that red shiny Lamborghini and the mansion in Malibu - we're looking for that FEELING of having everything we want: joy, abundance, fulfillment. Let the universe surprise you in how it manifests those feelings for you, it many times knows what we really need better than we do.

🌿 May this 9/9 Portal bring you to new heights of frequency!

So mote it be 🙏

Hello beautiful witches and magickal souls 🌝🔮

As the new moon begins to show, I’m excited to wrap up this Moon Magick series, after having the pleasure of following the phases of the last moon cycle with you, and I wanted to sum it up with a key takeaway:

🌟 The moon cycles are a powerful tool for personal growth and spiritual practice. And it’s not a coincidence that so many ancient traditions and religions from all over the world had, and still have, so many customs related to the moon.

Each lunar phase holds unique energies that can amplify different intentions—be it manifesting, overcoming challenges, clearing negative influences, or healing. And by aligning with the moon phases, we can amplify our magick and create powerful rituals resonating with nature’s rhythms.

Other events, of course, have an effect on our energies as well, and I also try to follow on some of the bigger ones - you’re welcome to follow along and learn a little more on how to channel these energies to support your journey. But just remember that whichever witchy way you lean to—your own energy, your mindset and the focus that you put to your intentions, will always be the strongest and most significant key to reality alchemy. 🌟

🪄 Final tip for new Moon Witches:

You can start small and experiment—pick one goal that you want to work on in this new lunar cycle and see which phases, rituals, and spells could support you in achieving it. Whether it’s scoring a new job or cutting ties with things that no longer serve you, see how the lunar magick affects your experience. See how the energy feels to you on these nights when you’re syncing your rituals with the moon, and log your thoughts every night in a dedicated moon journal that you can refer back to. See what works best for you and build on top of that.

I hope you enjoyed this series as much as I loved creating and sharing it with you! :) And if you're new here, check out my previous blog posts in the series and feel free to save and reblog what you like and find useful for your future lunar rituals.

The New Moon in Virgo tonight is a powerful time to reset and realign.

This moon brings a focus on health, organization, and self-improvement, making it perfect for setting intentions that nurture our well-being and daily habits. Virgo’s energy helps ground us, reminding us to take care of our physical and spiritual needs while embracing humility and purpose in our actions.

In some traditions, this time is also about honoring the land and giving thanks for the harvest. It’s a good opportunity to express gratitude for the abundance in our life and set intentions to prepare for the colder months ahead.

💫 How to Harness This Energy:

🌑 Set Clear Intentions: Write down what you want to manifest during this lunar cycle. Be specific—Virgo loves details!

🌑 Cleanse and Declutter: Clear your space, both physically and mentally. Get rid of what’s no longer serving you.

🌑 Focus on Health and Routines: Recommit to your wellness goals. Small, consistent changes can lead to big results.

🌑 Reflect on Personal Growth: Take time to journal or meditate on what you’ve learned and how you want to move forward.

This Virgo New Moon is a powerful time to set ourselves up for success in the coming months. 🌱

May the seeds of your intentions be blessed in this New Moon’s night, and may they grow with strength and grace 🙏🏻

Uploading this post slightly delayed, but it is still relevant to some right now, and will remain in general:

The Dark Moon

Historically, this entire period when the moon was nearly or completely invisible in the sky, was referred to as the New Moon phase, and was typically a time for both reflection and endings, as well as preparation for new beginnings and the new lunar cycle. But many modern neopagan and witchcraft traditions deliberately distinguish between:

🌑 The Dark Moon - the time when the moon is entirely invisible or just almost, and either:

🌑 The New Moon (still invisible) - the technical definition widely accepted in modern astrology and by many witches and pagans today, describing the moment (or day) of lunar conjunction when the moon is exactly between the Earth and the Sun, or:

🌑 The New Moon (visible) - the day when the first sliver of the moon becomes visible in the sky.

Either way - the Dark Moon concludes the Waning Crescent phase and represents the end of the lunar cycle, a period of closing chapters and finalizing anything still lingering from the past cycle. It is an ideal time for deep introspection and shadow work practices, healing, resting, cleansing, meditating, and connecting with the inner self, making it a powerful time for personal growth and renewing energies.

As the veil between the worlds is thin, it’s also a good opportunity to seek guidance and support from our ancestors and spirit guides with our practices and issues that we want to resolve.

Take this time for deep reflection and clear the way for the fresh energy of the New Moon. 💫

Dark Moon Incantation ✨

In the dark moon sky Stars shine bright My path is clear My heart is right Shadows released In comes new light

So mote it be 🙏

Do you feel it too? Like it's frggin' time to relax already after all the intensity and drama? The Waning Crescent moon (duration about 4~5 days) is the last phase in the decreasing moon period. And the final part of this phase - the last visible sliver of the moon, is sometimes referred to as the Balsamic Moon, derived from the Latin word balsamum, meaning "restorative" or "healing", and adopted into the astrological language. This period is connected to introspection, healing, and spiritual preparation.

And according to the ancient traditions, although the Waning Crescent moon still continues the Last Quarter moon’s theme of protection and banishing, and gives an opportunity to clear out any last remnants of negativity and protect oneself as the moon's light fades, this phase indeed focuses more on inner reflection, rest, healing, and preparation.

This quieter energy is about turning inward, connecting with the subconscious, mending old wounds, and preparing spiritually for the rebirth and new beginnings associated with the New Moon.

This aspect of the phase was less about active spellwork and more about spiritual maintenance: Meditation, cleansing, journaling, dreamwork, healing, etc. 🧘‍♀️

Additionally, many witches believe that during this phase, the veil between worlds becomes thinner, making it an ideal time for gaining insights through divination practices like tarot, runes, scrying, intuitive channeling, and more. 🔮

As the Dark Moon nears, nurture your spirit, reflect on your path, and prepare for the New Moon’s renewal. Let the Waning Crescent’s quiet power guide your spiritual journey.

🌘✨ Enhance Your Waning Crescent Moon Rituals with These Elements ✨🌘

These elements align with the Waning Crescent Moon's themes of introspection, healing, divination, and preparation for the new beginnings of the New Moon. Use them to deepen your rituals and connect with the energies of this phase:

🕯️ Candle Colors: Dark Blue for deep introspection and calming the mind, Grey for spiritual reflection and to neutralize and balance energies, Black for protection as you transition into the New Moon’s renewal.

💎 Crystals: Amethyst for spiritual insight and inner peace, Labradorite for protection and guiding inner work, and Selenite for clearing energy and aiding divination.

🌿 Herbs: Lavender for calming and soothing the spirit, Sage for gentle cleansing and protection, Lemon Balm for emotional healing, Mugwort for enhancing psychic abilities and aiding in divination.

🌬️ Incense: Sandalwood to ennhance meditation and spiritual connection, Frankincense for purification and healing, Myrrh for deepening spiritual insights during divination.

Witches know that the Waning Gibbous Moon is the perfect time to finally let go. Traditionally linked to the Crone aspect of the Goddess, this period invites deep reflection, purification, and the cutting of ties that no longer serve you. It's also a great opportunity to express gratitude for the lessons learned and the progress made. Use this phase to clean house and set the stage for postive change.

🪄 Cast a circle to create a sacred space for your ritual and light your candle. Focus on the negative influences or habits you want to banish from your life. Picture them as weights tied to you and dragging you down.

Write down each of thes burdens on a piece of paper. Hold it and chant this incantation 3 times with intent:

🔥 By the waning Moon’s glow I release what must go As the flame burns These cords dissolve I am complete, I am free, New energy is called to me 🔥

Burn the paper in the candle’s flame and watch your troubles turn to smoke and dissolve. Scatter the ashes near a big plant or a tree, or bury them, as a final goodbye.

Close your ritual by thanking the energies supporting you and reflect on the space you’ve cleared for new, positive growth. 🌿
