The Moon phase for September 7th, 2025 is the Full Moon phase. In this phase, the moon is 100% illuminated when seen from Earth (hence the name Full Moon).

The Full Moon happens when the moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. The sunlight fully illuminated the moon, and this is what we call being “full”. The moon will be visible throughout the night sky as it rises at sunset in the east, transits the meridian at midnight, before setting at sunrise in the west.

The specific point at which the Full Moon occurs can be measured down to a fraction of a second. The time that passes between full moons is called the Synodic month and is 29.530587981 days long.

SITUATION ANALYSIS:

There is a higher vantage point available to you, but it is obscured by the visible peak of personal ambition.
To climb to this higher plane, you must shake off the desires and fears of the conscious, visible world around you.
To make this journey you must quiet the Ego, empty your mind of past and future, and dwell totally in the moment at hand.
Thorough mindfulness of what is before you is the only tranquility.
Be. Here. Now.

Spell For Tomorrow – Lucky Seven Candle Dressing

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Lucky Seven Candle Dressing

The number seven is lucky because so many good things come in sevens: the chakras or energy centers in the body, and the continents of the world. The number seven ranks among the most favored numbers by gamblers and lottery players. This candle dressing contains seven herbs, each representing something powerful and positive. Dress a candle of any color and burn it to attract luck in all areas of life.

For anointing, use 1 drop mint oil, 1 drop chamomile oil, and 1 drop sandalwood oil. Mix together 1/2 teaspoon crushed dried patchouli leaves for grounding, 1/2 teaspoon dried lavender flowers for attraction, 1/2 teaspoon dried dandelion petals for confidence, 1/2 teaspoon dragon’s blood resin powder for love, 1/2 teaspoon rosemary for truth, 1/2 teaspoon of sage for wisdom, and 1/2 teaspoon crushed myrrh gum for spirituality.

Try using this mixture on rainbow candle of seven colors for extra luck. Burn it just before an important event or celebration to make sure the experience is positive.

Tarot Card

The Lovers

Keywords: choice, decision, love, communication, inspiration (ideas from above)!

Astrological Correspondence: Gemini

The Lovers card is representative not only of crucial life choices, but also of lovers, couples, and other partnerships, like business partners, siblings, and friends. The angel between a woman and a man, depicted on this card, symbolizes the struggle of deciding to follow one’s heart versus one’s temptation or obligation. The Lovers card symbolizes the choices that must be made to progress toward higher self-awareness; choices also reflect emotional values, indecisiveness, hesitation, and our fears about making wrong choices. This applies not only to love relationships – it is applicable to any relationship in which people are drawn together, even a casual one. It’s the card of uncertainty!

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today and Some Other Information

I am still working on clean up of WOTC website but wanted to do a full day of regular posts for you all because I have not done this for a while. Some of the information on the regular posts are being offered differently to make sure of no copyright infringements occur and all websites I use to gather information are correctly given credit.

I was recently asked why I ask for monetary donations for doing spells or rituals or clearing or animal spirit guide readings. I spend hours a day working either behind the scenes and/or posting just to spread the truth about Witchcraft and bring information to all traditions of paganism/witchcraft and never expect a donation for this work unless someone is kind enough to give me one. Yes I did ask for donations in years gone by to help me out I no longer to do so as my husband now has a job that can cover all our living expenses and I can do this website for enjoyment and knowledge. When it comes to doing spells, rituals, clearings, and spirit animal readings I feel my time and items needs for the spell or ritual is more business like and worth me making a little money from. If you check out other witch websites that charge for different things my prices are way below theirs. I do not want to charge the high amounts as I feel my abilities should be in a price range available to anyone. Some of you may disagree with me for charging anything for services I advertise through WOTC but it is not a directly related to the posts I do. I hope this clarifies why I charge for spells, rituals, clearings and readings.

If you want to see information on any tradition of witchcraft, herbs, flowers, a Goddess or a God, or anything pertaining to any tradition of witchcraft, please put it in the comment section or email Lady Carla Beltane at ladybeltane@witchesofthecraft.com. I will try to find some information to post about it.

May your and your family’s lives be filled with love, happiness, laughter, joy, and positive things!

Blessed be
