December Updates & Last Weekend for Orders!

Good evening wild soul,

As we reach mid-December, I feel a sense of relief to know that we are almost at the shortest day of the year now, how are you holding up?

On Saturday, 21st December we reach the Winter Solstice, after which the light slowly begins to expand once again. Can you believe, that by the end of January, we will have an extra hour of daylight compared with today!

We have had a busy month making up your orders, and we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who has shopped with us again this year. It really means the world to us, to still be here, creating gifts for you and your loved ones for another year.


Shop Update

If you are still thinking of shopping with us before Christmas, please do get your orders in by 7pm on SUNDAY 15th DECEMBER. Any orders placed after this time will be shipped out in the New Year. This is to ensure your UK order has plenty of time to reach you before Christmas, given the increased pressures on the postal system at this time.

We still have some lovely things in store if you are looking for a last minute gift. From tree pendants, to prints and boxsets, here is a taste of what is still available…


December Moments

Whilst this time of year can feel busy and full, we hope you are finding some cosy, slower moments amidst it all. Energy can be lower at this time of year so make sure to take a few extra moments to nurture yours this month. A cup of tea drunk slowly under a blanket. Getting into bed a little earlier to read a book, light some candles or sink into a hot bath. It need not be fancy, just something that allows you to take a deeper exhale after a long day.

The last Full Moon of the year will rise on Sunday 15th at around 3.20pm in the UK. Fingers are crossed for clear skies so that we can catch a glimpse at some point in the evening.

I wanted to leave you with a few of our favourite photos from December’s gone by as a reminder of the beauty that can be found on these cold Winter days. I hope you enjoy them and find some moments of peace this week,

Much love,

Lunar Calendar 2023

We are very excited to announce the release of our Lunar Calendars for 2023! This is the third year of creating them, and if you are familiar with our previous versions, you will know that they have undergone some big changes this year!

We wanted to align our Moon Calendars to our Wheel of the Year design, where we gathered historical wildlife and botanical illustrations for each of the seasons and we are really pleased with the results for these Lunar prints.

This year, our Calendar will be available in 3 sizes; an A6 card, perfect for popping in the front of a diary/journal or placed on an altar, and 8 x 10″ and 11 x 14″ prints. We have also created some limited edition Moon Ritual boxsets that you can find out more about below!

Libra season

The wheel of the year turns once more as we arrive at the Autumn Equinox. Day and night length reach balance as the sun moves into the seventh sign of the zodiac – Libra. The sun remains in Libra until 22nd October where it will transition to watery Scorpio.

It is no surprise given the timing of the season that Libra is characterised by balance. As Libra is an air sign, which is connected to thoughts and mental energy, Libra can be associated with consideration, weighing things up and trying to come to a fair solution for all.

Sometimes this may present itself as indecisiveness or a desire for things to be just, in balance and not to rock the boat.

Libra is the first sign of the Autumn and the sign that paves our entry to the darker half of the year.

Virgo season

Today – the 22nd August, the Sun transitions into the sixth sign of the zodiac; Virgo. Virgo season runs up until September 23rd, before the sun moves into the sign of Libra, at the Autumn Equinox.

Virgo season spans the height of the harvest when times are busy gathering, processing and storing produce for the months ahead. This practical earth sign is associated with qualities of strength, hardwork, organisation, practicality and determination with high standards for themselves and others.

Virgo season can be a good time to really connect with the earth, grounding ourselves in this abundant season. We may experience more focus for any projects we may have over the month ahead and it can be a good time to assess where we may be overly harsh on ourselves and others.

Astrological

Leo Season

Tomorrow – the 23rd of July, the Sun moves into the fifth zodiac sign of Leo. Leo season runs up until August 22nd, before the sun transitions into Virgo.

Leo seasons spans the height of summer, where times are rich with warmth, energy and fun and creativity peaks. Qualities associated with this sign include confidence, leadership, generosity, creativity and joy.

Leo is a fire sign and is ruled by the sun, the centre of our universe. This season may offer up the fire and energy to invoke change, celebrate life and return to our core, helping us to speak our truth.

Gemini Season

The sun has now entered the zodiac sign of Gemini; the third sign of the zodiac year which runs between May 21st and June 21st. The season was well opened by the New Moon in Gemini last night.

Gemini season falls in between Spring and Summer, where much of nature is growing and learning. This sign is often linked with the joys and curiosities of learning and communication. The influence of Gemini’s element air also bring a focus on ideas and thoughts. Gemini is often referred to as ‘the twins’ and can relate to the concept of duality and balance, and at times when two things fall out of balance; play and rest for example conflict may be felt until balance is restored.
