Merry meet Sisters, Brothers, and Honored Guests,
I'm an ordained High Priestess walking my spiritual path as an Eclectic Witch for over 45 years. I'm mother of 5, mother-in-law of 4 (although I treat them the same as those, I gave birth too) , grandmother of 13 and great-grandma to 5. I am a spirit mother and sister to many of my dearest friends and apprentices.
I enjoy helping witches find their spiritual and magickal path. More information for the novice course offered look under "WOTC's School of Witchcraft" on the main menu. Please email me at ladybeltane@witchesofthecraft.com for further information about my novice or private study with Lady Carla Beltane witchcraft courses.

Merry part and blessed be,
Lady Carla Beltane
June 3, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase
Source: nineplanets.org
The current moon phase for June 3rd, 2025 is the First Quarter phase.
On this day, the moon is 7.69 days old and 54.9% illuminated with a tilt of 155.188°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 397,577.27 km and the moon sign is Virgo.
The Moon phase for June 3rd, 2025 is the First Quarter phase. In this phase, exactly half of the moon is illuminated and half is in darkness.
The First Quarter phase comes roughly 7 days after the New Moon and this is when the moon has completed one quarter of its orbit around the Earth (hence the name, First Quarter). The moon will be high overhead at sunset in this phase and will be visible until mid-night, when it sets in the west.
The First Quarter of the moon phase cycle happens on one day. It’s followed by the intermediate phase, Waxing Gibbous, and will become more illuminated every day until it reaches the Full Moon phase.
Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.
Fun fact: if you live in the Northern Hemisphere, the right side of the moon will be illuminated during the First Quarter. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, the left side is illuminated.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
Friday we got home early and I work on getting our yard tidied up. In clearing weeds and other things out along the fence I touched something that caused a bad allergic reaction to the point I couldn’t sit or lay anywhere to help stop the itching. Than yesterday we move a party tent off our porch to take to my middle son and I messed up my lower back pinching the right sciatic nerve which laid me flat and is still bad today. I’m alternately using ice and heat along with prescription pain medication and healing spell to help it heal. Since I haven’t got the monthly posts up yet I am going to do those today and limited regular posting. All the birth horoscope traits are caught up.
Thank you once again for supporting me through another physical rough spot!
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

Surgical operations are generally recommended during the Waning Moon, because human body is healing better after surgery. However, try to avoid surgeries of the organs under the influence of the zodiac sign the Moon is in on the day of the surgery. These organs are more sensitive when the Moon is passing the sign they are affiliated with and their surgery is not recommended.

Summary:
June brings a slow and introspective energy as Pluto remains retrograde for deep internal transformation. Uranus and Neptune continue in their pre-shadow phases, indicating upcoming awakenings and spiritual shifts. Saturn also enters pre-shadow, highlighting future responsibilities and lessons. Venus and Mars remain direct, providing opportunities for love and action, but with a caution towards long-term decisions. Mercury stays direct for most of the month, but its pre-shadow starts at the very end, inviting reflection on past communication and thought patterns.
Final Thought:
June is a month of preparation and reflection. With Pluto retrograde and the outer planets in pre-shadow, it’s a good time to focus on introspection and long-term planning rather than making major changes. The direct movement of Venus and Mars allows for steady progress in relationships and personal goals, but the pre-shadow energies of Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune urge caution in decisions and remind us to pay attention to the deeper lessons unfolding.

Please read this first:
1) Moon Phase x Moon Zodiac Sign:
Please keep in mind, that Gardening by Moon Phase and Gardening by Moon Zodiac Sign are two different/independent biodynamic systems and they might give you different or contradictiory gardening recommendations.
- a) Each Moon Phase (except Full Moon and New Moon) lasts about 1 week
- b) Each Moon Zodiac Sign lasts about 2.5 days
Try to experiment with these two systems to find which recommendations suits you the most.
2) Tropical (Astrological) x Sidereal (Astronomical) Zodiac:
(1-2 days difference in Leaf, Fruit, Root and Flower days)
There are two different zodiacs for determining the Moon Sign:
- a) Tropical zodiac (Astrological) is based on the seasons – Vernal Equinox is fixed as 0° Aries (The 1st Fruit day)
- b) Sidereal zodiac (Astronomical) takes into account Precession of Equinoxes and shifts 0° Aries back by cca 1-2 days. Maria Thun who was an authority on biodynamics was using this Sidereal zodiac
Try to experiment also with these two zodiac systems to find which system suits you better.

June 2025 Moon Details
June 2025 Moon Details Source: moongiant.com
The Full Moon for this month will occur in the second week on Wednesday, June 11th. The New Moon will happen later in June on Wednesday, June 25th.
The June Full Strawberry Moon
The sweetest full moon of the year is June’s full moon, commonly known as the Full Strawberry Moon. While the full moon itself is inedible, despite how round and delicious it may seem, the Full Strawberry Moon marks strawberry harvesting season in North America. Most Algonquin tribes understood that it was a sign that wild strawberries were starting to ripen and ready for the harvest. Delicious though ripe strawberries may be, June’s full moon has another name that’s even sweeter.
What could possibly be sweeter than strawberries? Try honey. In Europe, June’s full moon was actually known as the Honey Moon. Other European names for it included the Hot Moon, signifiying the beginning of hot summer days, or Hay Moon, because of the first hay harvest. Those names aside, European names for the Full Strawberry Moon overall tend to have sweet, romantic connotations – a good example is the name Full Rose Moon. June’s full moon is also called Mead Moon, which could refer to the mowing of meadows during summer, but there’s another more romantic interpretation as well.
In Europe, it’s traditional to gift mead or honey to a newlywed couple during their first moon of marriage. The name Honey Moon itself has now become a common word in the English language, used to refer to the honeymoon holiday that couples go on right after they’re married. It used to be that newlyweds in ancient Europe would go on a sweet romantic holiday around the time of June’s full moon, because the moon phases were seen as a symbol for the phases of a marriage, with the full moon signifying the fullest and happiest part, the wedding itself.
The Full Strawberry Moon is tied to romance and marital bliss all around the world. In India, for example, June’s full moon is celebrated as Vat Purnima, where married women perform a ceremonial ritual to show their love for their husbands. Vat Purnima is based off a legend from the Mahabharata, about a beautiful woman, Savitri, who is determined to save her husband, Satyavan, who is doomed to die an early death. Savitri fasts for three days before Satyavan dies, upon which she successfully negotiates with the King of Hell for the resurrection of her husband. Similarly, married women nowadays dress up in beautiful saris, fast, and tie a thread around a banyan tree seven times to wish that their husbands will lead long, happy lives.
It is no wonder, then, that the Pagans also call June’s full moon the Lovers’ Moon. This is an excellent time to work on the connections in your life, romantic or otherwise, by showing affection to your loved ones and allowing yourself to be vulnerable to encourage intimacy in your relationships. During this Honey Moon, some Hoodoo practitioners will even use honey in magic rituals to sweeten other people’s feelings towards the practitioner. An example of a sweetening ritual is to pour honey into a saucer containing the target’s name, before lighting a candle on top of it. Another example of a honey ritual is to tie two poppets together with honey between them, in order to heal a broken relationship between two people. Honey rituals aside, true magic may happen when you invest your time and effort during this month to work on your relationships and appreciate the love you have in your life.

I Am Taking Today Off
I way over did it yesterday working on spring clean up of our yard. I had done the same on Sunday. Between the two days and silly weather here I am in a lot of pain today. I get out there thoroughly enjoying working with Mother Earth and listening to the birds sing that I do more than I should and pay for it when my body says enough is enough I’m going to slow you down one way or the other.
If you’d like to see what I have done, Crystal, and Merlin outside I have shorts up on my youtube channel. I will soon be doing some videos on witchcraft. There will be some beginners information, rituals, spellwork and whatever else I think I should post. This is one of the ways I am branching out for a creative activity. If you stop by please leave a comment on any of the shorts of things you would like me to consider doing a video on or just leave a comment here. They’ll start soonish after I get over being nervous about being live on a video. I may do live streams on Esbats and/or Sabbats. If you would be interested in joining me through chat, which can be away for us to gather and just talk with each other, on a live stream let me know.

Spell for Tomorrow – The “Enchanted Evening” Elemental Spell
(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)
LOVE SPELL WARNING: Love spells such as this one take the person who you want to love you free will/spirit away. What happens with a spell like this is the person will become obsessed with you to the point of possibly losing their job, which in turn can make them lose their home, automobile, friends, their family, etc. I have heard of people under love spells dying from not eating or drinking when they are not in the presence of the spellcaster 24/7/365. So, unless you want some who only loves you because of a spell you put on them then go for it. But if you want someone to love you because they feel that emotion towards you then please do not do this spell. The same warning goes for animals, birds, reptiles, or anything else that has a heart and can create a bond with someone.
Looking to put a little passion back into your love life? How do you feel about working with the four elements and Lilith, our goddess of power and passion? There are times when even the most loving relationship needs a little oomph. So, if you simply want to spice things up with your partner in the bedroom, well, hey, Lilith’s your best bet! But be careful; she has a wicked sense of humor. Calling on Lilith for some extra spark or desire works very well, and you may feel like you have a magickal hangover in the morning. A small price to pay … just don’t say that I didn’t warn you.
Let’s get all of your senses involved. This spell is a sensual and sensory experience. To represent the four elements in this spell, light a few black or red candles to represent sent the element of fire. Burn dragon’s blood incense to represent the element of air. To symbolize water, open a bottle of red wine and drink from the same cup as your partner. Finally, sprinkle the sheets with some crimson-colored rose petals to represent the element of earth.
And at the risk of sounding like a mom, while you’re setting this stage for loving seduction, don’t forget to practice safe sex!
Ask for Lilith’s blessings by using the following lowing invocation:
Lilith, dark goddess, teach me to love, laugh and be wise
Aid me in my witchery as you sail through the skies
By the natural magick of air, water, earth, and fire
I manifest the gifts of love, seduction, and desire
By the elements four, this spell is now begun
As I will, so shall it be, and let it harm none.

May 30, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase
Source: nineplanets.org
The current moon phase for May 30th, 2025 is the Waxing Crescent phase.
On this day, the moon is 3.57 days old and 15.09% illuminated with a tilt of 138.717°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 374,486.81 km and the moon sign is Cancer.
The Moon phase for May 30th, 2025 is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.
In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.
In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.
The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase
Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.
