You ma'am, explain EVERYTHING in such incredible, deep detail. There are many content creators on this platform. However, not all are as knowledgeable and versed in so many Occult topics. I've been practicing Witchcraft for about 3 years now and have yet to see a content creator with so much CORRECT, INFORMATIVE, LENGTHY DEEPLY DETAILED, & ENTERTAINING Information! I'm wildly impressed, & grateful to have found your channel.😊 ❤ 🌒🌕🌘 Blessed Be Ivy!
7 p.m. on a Friday night has always been magic to me. I don't know why. As a teen, I read cards at that hour.i have channeled so many poems during that time frame. Don't know why, but that's my time.
15:33 same!! I always feel ill and really emotional and unstable around the full moon, I never feel good, it’s always so beautiful to look at but not so good for my brain 😂🤦♀️
I grew up Southern Baptist and never developed my gifts. Spent a lifetime ignoring them until 2018. They refused to continue to be denied. Once I ceacked that door During the entire full moon phase I suffered from insomnia. Only starting last year has that stopped.
I’ve always thought that the New Year was a horrible time for making resolutions. What I do is set my intention on January 1st, plan and daydream about my resolution January through the rest of the winter and then put it into action in the Spring. That’s when I feel the surge of energy and thanks to my winter planning, I’m more prepared. Great video as always. You and I have extremely similar pockets of knowledge.
In terms of timing, I've always liked the late night for my spell work, it's very quiet & calm which allows me to work my magick. I love the amount of detail you've used to describe various magickal workings as well as the season/moon phase that goes with them. Very interesting ideas flourish from this. 🤘🍎🐍
Great video! I also pay attention to how the planet is functioning before using that planetary energy as well. For example, if Venus is in Taurus, I’ll use the Venus planetary day and hour as much as I can.
Why aren’t there more likes on these, this info is absolute gold!! An experienced and wise witch with a huge amount of knowledge? May your channel prosper and thrive with new students, I hope they come to you because you have a wonderful library within your mind, Ms. Ivy :)
I very much think you are a perfectionist and lover of details. A personality that a Flemish would call ''grondig eigenschap'' - not doing things half or on surface, but going deep deep down and transform the rough gold/diamond into its finest. It feels so good listening to you. Am beginning to be a huge fan. Many thanks.
As an astrologer, I very much see the benefits in using the planets in spellwork. And thanks for this video. You’re right, it’s definitely not talked about enough 👍
Thank you so much!! Love this video & I am IN love with your background music!! It is so hard for me to find music like this that feels good to me. Is it something you wrote yourself? The tone and melody is so fantastic! 😄
I was taught as a Wiccan dedicate that the Dark Moon was the first day of the New Moon, the first day the sky is dark. This was for binding, banishing, and baneful work. And then we observed the New Moon at the first crescent, called Diana's Bow. But this was just our tradition. Others do otherwise. Moon phases are a continuum, not a sharp division. We can try different things and see what worked best for us.
Yes agreed! If you had asked me maybe 5 years ago, I used to only see the dark moon as the new moon. But I suppose I've gotten a little lenient over time and now I've found a routine that works well for me. (Using it as the day before a new moon.) But astronomically speaking, it really should be the new moon, not a few days before. Thank you so much for the added perspective! 🙏❤️
Would LOVE a video about when the Veil is thinnest in Spring & spell work for this time of year. Samhain gets SOOO MUCH attention. But doesn't the springtime veil have equal potential? *I don't celebrate Wiccan holidays, etc. so forgive Me for Not knowing the given names😬💜🖤✨
Holy moly an abundant creation! So much appreciation for you Ivy, always a great time with you and my coffee in the am. I had to pause rewind and add the planetary days to my Google calendar with notes of correspondences so I can access at a glance on my phone. Today happens to be the day that I fill in the next month's lunar cycles with detailed notes of the correspondences for every night's lunar cycle. It helps me tune into the energy that's readily available to me that day so I can plan my agenda for the day accordingly. I see it as swimming downstream instead of exhausting myself swimming upstream. I enjoyed your explanation of the seasons too! Although I already have a general knowledge of what you shared in this video I always walk away with a new tid bit or a piece of information that I can add to what I already know. There's always a moment of 'ooooooh mmmhhm' when I take in the information you share. Much love and appreciation Ivy!
I have always used the moon phases for timing. A new moon for a spell of increase or of something to gain. A waning or black moon for banishing or decrease spell.
Wow. What a great channel I stumbled upon. I was so excited to hear you say that full moons make u tired etc.. I feel the same way and have never heard of anyone else like me. I have my full energy during the new 🌚. Excited to continue ur videos
Another great video, Ivy! Thanks! As for your question about future videos - I think a video about the whole Wheel of the Year might be a little bit long, but you could do a series of videos about each individual Sabbat. Yule is coming up next month, so maybe you could do a video about how to celebrate it!
I often feel tired on the full moon, as well. I thought it was odd because I've always heard that we should have more energy on the FM. Nice to know that I'm not the only one.😊
This was an amazing video! I'd love to see one on the specific spokes of the wheel of holidays. I've made my own, but it only uses the 4 solstices/equinoxes as spokes, with my personal holidays in between. I'll have to rewatch this several times regardless.
I don't observe all 8 Sabbats. It's just too muck work, a major festival every six weeks. I observe the cross-quarters and the Winter Solstice. Five is the goddess's special number. It feels right. I don't think any of our European ancestors observed all 8 Sabbats either. Some people used the quarters, some the cross-quarters. Some, just Beltane and Samhain.
Thank you as Always for your Amazing work ! About the moon phase, i wonder if we may also tens to like better/feel more confortable with either the Sun/Moon placements also happening in our birth chart or maybe just a strong Sun or Moon placement we got ? I'm a dark Moon baby and this moment is always such a power up and i can feel it visceraly building up while full Moon are just mental fire hazards
My thoughts-Anytime is a good time. Use your wit and cunning side to spell and manipulate words to adjust to the present energy. Planetary Energy will react to your natal chart individually in my experience. Cap Energy in my world might motivate me to set unattainable goals, but it's also my 9th house placement of higher goals, education, and beliefs. Although the cap Energy does have ceo qualities, it definitely matters where cap is in your chart bc it may hinder more than help. Venus is harmony, style, decor and design, preferences, your natural inclination. Oh I love this video so much!! So proud of you and you deserve every single following. I see ur effort and continue to send my love and energy all the time 💛
That's how I was taught. Write your spell to banish an unwanted thing, or to welcome in its opposite, depending on the moon phase you're in. Working by the Moon is a major part of my practice now.
I agree with all of this!! In the video, I really wanted to talk about how different energies can affect different areas of a natal chart... But that would have been way too complicated to try to fit into a video like this 😂 Thank you for mentioning this!!
Very interesting thanks your knowledge is very good. I tend to like late at night or dawn for spell work as this is the strongest time for my deity's but sometimes needs say day,
Hi Ivy, great video once again, it really summarized what I've read before on the subject matter, and gained new insights too especially on moon magic, what a refresher ! Thank you.
I'm a bit of an anti-conformist as far as fitting into a ceremonial style of practice, I tend to function in opposing positions best, for example, High Midnight 😏 is my mid-day. My spell work tends to be self care regarding shadow work, healing trauma etc,, so when I am compelled to perform a spell, it is typical for me to wait until the world is at it quietest, I have privacy and unlimited time. I will instead look into my favorite astrology app, and decipher what corresponds with my intentions in that moment. I too seem to feel at my most low vibe states during full moon, so I use this time to purge unnecessary emotions from my shadow, I figure if I feel over emotional and heavy at that time anyway, it feels less draining, and as the full moon wanes, it takes with it the extra baggage that was in the way, and I can begin receiving inspiration for the new moon coming. I only recently accepted my calling in the last 2 years, but had been taught to ignore it growing up, now I have the opportunity to learn freely without interference from my childhood fears of "damnation" and I am still immersed in the joy of learning overall. It's so fun to correlate what I wanted to believe all my life with what I'm learning now and seeing the overlaps between my parents and friends standards, and understanding myself so much better than they ever have. I guess my point was,,😁 my agreement with you as far as designing your spell timing can be helpful, I feel as though it's more important for working outside of ourselves, and less necessary for our internal work, adore your willingness to share your thoughts, because without my YT witches this last 3 years I would still be conflicted and fearful 💜😎🦄💗
@@IvyTheOccultist I appreciate that, everything feels very new, and very familiar and affirming all at once. I keep finding out I knew stuff and didn't realize it 🤣 I tend to babble, so feel free to ignore my ish too 😏😁 And forever, Thank you for all this work and info your sharing 😎
Love love love this video. Lots of information. I resonate 💯 with this video The 3 days before the new moon 🌚 I call the balsamic moon. I get organized and do the most magic around then. Was born on a new moon 🌚 so I resonate most with that. I feel like I am most powerful then. Thanks again for all your information. Makes so much sense .I get so much validation from your videos. Love planetary magick it just makes sense. Hermetisism means alot to me as well. Been reading alot about it few years now. I realized very late in life that I always bought stuff during a waxing moon. Always cleaned house during waning. Funny how eventually you realize you always were a witch and didn't know it Lol Thank you
I worked in a Neuro ICU and everyone would always say, get ready it's a full moon, all the crazies are out. So true, the weirdest things happened then, not even just with the patients just things around the unit.
So I come from a Messianic/Hebrew background and although I no longer consider myself a believer in the bible, I want to get your thoughts on something... The bible teaches that the day technically begins at sundown (for example, Shabbat/Saturday starts when the sun sets on Friday night and ends at sunset on Saturday)... How does astrology interpret the beginning and end of a day? I hope this question makes sense. I'm sure anyone from a Hebrew background will understand what I'm asking and I'd love anyone's insight with respect to that. 💜🌕🌚
Hmm, that's a really interesting question! As far as I'm aware, Astrology sees the new day starting when the sun rises above the horizon (dawn) but I'm also not sure it quite translates to be the same as how we view a new day. On your birthchart, you may see a horizontal line going across the entire circle. That horizontal line represents the horizon. I haven't really heard anything otherwise... but that's really interesting! And I couldn't be completely wrong. I had no idea the Bible teaches that the day begins at sundown. I'll need to dig into this a little deeper before I can say anything for sure!
@@IvyTheOccultist thanks for responding. That's what I thought but I am just starting to learn about astrology so it's all very interesting (and confusing too 😆)
Commenting again lol is there a journal or an app that might have these available everyday? I would love to work with the moon phases and planets, but would be nice to not have to go research everyday.
I wish I had an app or a journal to recommend for this kind of stuff but I don't 😫 There are some basic moon phase ones but they don't really have the magical associations. And I haven't been able to find one for the planets at all. Kind of a bummer!
I've been hearing a lot lately about the difference between an experienced witch and a beginner witch and that is layers. The different layers of a spell. What are your thoughts? During spring and summer most of my spells are done inside because it gets hella hot here, unless if I'm working with the sun lol. Autumn and winter are my favorite times to do spells outside. I feel like I'm the only one that doesn't feel any effects from the moon, unless I'm closed off to it or something. Could you do a video on using zodiacs in magick? Don't be so shallow about Venus lol. This gave me an idea on performing a spell a day for a week. Do any of those books talk about Uranus, Neptune and Pluto? Because I feel like they're left out because they're not traditional. I use Lunarium for knowing the planetary hours. I use dusk more than Dawn because I like my sleep lol. I love that you talked about sun phases. Storms are kind of liminal.
I really like the idea of "layers" potentially being the difference between beginners and adepts. I'll have to stew on that for a while... Also, have you ever gotten a birth chart reading? You totally should! That might indicate why the moon doesn't seem to affect you as much. I have thought about doing a video using the zodiacs in magick... But I'm also trying to not go too deep into astrology on this channel. I'll cover the planets and that's probably it. The reason why is very complicated but I'll think about it 😂 Yay, you should definitely try casting a spell a day for a week! None of the planetary books I've ever seen talk about the outer planets such as Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. One of the reasons why is because they're so far away, some people don't believe they have much effect on us. Even Jupiter and Saturn... They are so far away, they affect entire generations rather than the individual's identity and ego because they move so slowly. A lot of astrologers just stick to the traditional 7 because they are closer and have a bigger impact on our lives. But it might be worth it for you to see an astrologer that does further out planets as well as asteroids and whatnot ❤️
@@IvyTheOccultist I was going to reply last night but then my tablet died. For me, I don't think layers will show how experienced a person is because take this video for example. A new witch watches it and learns these layers, then adds herbs, crystals etc. Then it would look like they're experienced. I have not had a birth chart reading done yet, maybe that's the reason why. Ah, I understand why you wouldn't want to go to deep in astrology. That makes sense, this is going to sound weird but I feel like the outer planets feel left out of magickal practice 😂 Like they're just there and all the other planets get all the magickal juices and they don't.
Brilliant video and love the fact you recommend books ( am loving Inner Temple of Witchcraft that you recommend on another video. Strongly recommend watching Ablas Roland Legrand, he does a very informative video for each new/dark moon, explaining when it will move through each planet and the effects it has.
What's up with tonight and the various celestial events that are taking place? Significance? Advice? BTW if your cat died under suspicious circumstances and you thought someone did it to try to hurt you, what would you do and when would you do it? How can tonight be of use to me? Like can I get in touch with my beloved dead cat who died in September,and if I can, can she somehow communicate to me what happened to her and who did it? She needs justice. If I communicate with her or try, am I going to open some sort of portal for bad things?
Hi there! So sorry I missed your comment originally. I try to keep up with comments as best as I can but sometimes they get away from me. Well, the moment has passed now I suppose. But to answer your question about communicating with your cat, you can use any full moon to do that. ☺️ Since it sounds like you are just beginning your journey with spirit communication, I would highly suggest assessing whatever fear you may be holding onto. If you go into spirit work feeling fearful, you will most likely have a fearful experience. But if you feel confident, then go for it! Opening a portal for bad things is actually a lot harder than you might think. The most that would probably happen is nothing at all. But if you are concerned about opening a portal for bad things then definitely don't attempt to work with spirits yet. You might freak yourself out and that's definitely not a good thing. What usually happens when beginners start moving into spirit work is nothing - no communication and dead energy. It takes a lot of practice so definitely get started if you're feeling good about it! ☺️
Did I just do a large money ritual and make a money bowl on the first Full Moon in Capricorn (Wed into Thurs) on my birthday this year with Jupiter, Saturn, And Venus energy? Yes,... Yes I did. Did I nap beforehand in order to charge up for the working? Yes, yes I did. 😂
Anyone that says there is nothing unusual about the full moon has never worked in a hospital. I worked for the last 10 years in hospital ERs, the last year on midnights, and those of us that worked there made sure we were prepared mentally and physically for those nights. There is a definite difference!
So first thing i thought of when you mentioned not feeling well on a full moon, was parasites. Ive been dealing with Autoimmune symptoms since 2018 and i have been doing alot of reading everywhere i can find information and comparing my symptoms. And many of these detoxs mention doing cleanses specifically on full moons its just a hunch, but its worth looking into.

It's peak celebratory time! The work week is done and the whole weekend streches out before you. I get it.

I have the same issue with the Full Moon. I always feel like crap. So I end up meditating on the full moon and doing spells or ritual at other times.
I'm glad I'm not the only one! 🙌
outstanding video!!, loaded with great information
So important, thank you for this video. So glad you talked about all of this.

That's so funny you were already incorporating the moon into your life without even knowing it! 🙌 Much love to you!
I worked in a Neuro ICU and everyone would always say, get ready it's a full moon, all the crazies are out. So true, the weirdest things happened then, not even just with the patients just things around the unit.
Yes!! Full moons are always crazy in the hospital. I don't miss it! 😂
Loved this, good info!
Thank you! 🙏
Taurus and Leo Energy exude wealth
YES! Taurus energy is my go-to for money spells too along with Cap! And Leo is so royal 🤩
So I come from a Messianic/Hebrew background and although I no longer consider myself a believer in the bible, I want to get your thoughts on something... The bible teaches that the day technically begins at sundown (for example, Shabbat/Saturday starts when the sun sets on Friday night and ends at sunset on Saturday)... How does astrology interpret the beginning and end of a day? I hope this question makes sense. I'm sure anyone from a Hebrew background will understand what I'm asking and I'd love anyone's insight with respect to that. 💜🌕🌚
Hmm, that's a really interesting question! As far as I'm aware, Astrology sees the new day starting when the sun rises above the horizon (dawn) but I'm also not sure it quite translates to be the same as how we view a new day. On your birthchart, you may see a horizontal line going across the entire circle. That horizontal line represents the horizon. I haven't really heard anything otherwise... but that's really interesting! And I couldn't be completely wrong. I had no idea the Bible teaches that the day begins at sundown. I'll need to dig into this a little deeper before I can say anything for sure!
@@IvyTheOccultist thanks for responding. That's what I thought but I am just starting to learn about astrology so it's all very interesting (and confusing too 😆)
@@rachelle1 prepare to be confused for the first couple years! 😂😂😂
Commenting again lol is there a journal or an app that might have these available everyday? I would love to work with the moon phases and planets, but would be nice to not have to go research everyday.
I wish I had an app or a journal to recommend for this kind of stuff but I don't 😫 There are some basic moon phase ones but they don't really have the magical associations. And I haven't been able to find one for the planets at all. Kind of a bummer!
I've been hearing a lot lately about the difference between an experienced witch and a beginner witch and that is layers. The different layers of a spell. What are your thoughts? During spring and summer most of my spells are done inside because it gets hella hot here, unless if I'm working with the sun lol. Autumn and winter are my favorite times to do spells outside. I feel like I'm the only one that doesn't feel any effects from the moon, unless I'm closed off to it or something. Could you do a video on using zodiacs in magick? Don't be so shallow about Venus lol. This gave me an idea on performing a spell a day for a week. Do any of those books talk about Uranus, Neptune and Pluto? Because I feel like they're left out because they're not traditional. I use Lunarium for knowing the planetary hours. I use dusk more than Dawn because I like my sleep lol. I love that you talked about sun phases. Storms are kind of liminal.
I really like the idea of "layers" potentially being the difference between beginners and adepts. I'll have to stew on that for a while... Also, have you ever gotten a birth chart reading? You totally should! That might indicate why the moon doesn't seem to affect you as much. I have thought about doing a video using the zodiacs in magick... But I'm also trying to not go too deep into astrology on this channel. I'll cover the planets and that's probably it. The reason why is very complicated but I'll think about it 😂 Yay, you should definitely try casting a spell a day for a week! None of the planetary books I've ever seen talk about the outer planets such as Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. One of the reasons why is because they're so far away, some people don't believe they have much effect on us. Even Jupiter and Saturn... They are so far away, they affect entire generations rather than the individual's identity and ego because they move so slowly. A lot of astrologers just stick to the traditional 7 because they are closer and have a bigger impact on our lives. But it might be worth it for you to see an astrologer that does further out planets as well as asteroids and whatnot ❤️
@@IvyTheOccultist I was going to reply last night but then my tablet died. For me, I don't think layers will show how experienced a person is because take this video for example. A new witch watches it and learns these layers, then adds herbs, crystals etc. Then it would look like they're experienced. I have not had a birth chart reading done yet, maybe that's the reason why. Ah, I understand why you wouldn't want to go to deep in astrology. That makes sense, this is going to sound weird but I feel like the outer planets feel left out of magickal practice 😂 Like they're just there and all the other planets get all the magickal juices and they don't.
Brilliant video and love the fact you recommend books ( am loving Inner Temple of Witchcraft that you recommend on another video. Strongly recommend watching Ablas Roland Legrand, he does a very informative video for each new/dark moon, explaining when it will move through each planet and the effects it has.
I will definitely check him out; thank you for the recommendation! And I'm so glad you love the book recommendations. They're so important! 😊❤️
(Also, yay for loving the Inner Temple of Witchcraft!!!)
What's up with tonight and the various celestial events that are taking place? Significance? Advice?
BTW if your cat died under suspicious circumstances and you thought someone did it to try to hurt you, what would you do and when would you do it?
How can tonight be of use to me?
Like can I get in touch with my beloved dead cat who died in September,and if I can, can she somehow communicate to me what happened to her and who did it? She needs justice.
If I communicate with her or try, am I going to open some sort of portal for bad things?
Hi there! So sorry I missed your comment originally. I try to keep up with comments as best as I can but sometimes they get away from me. Well, the moment has passed now I suppose. But to answer your question about communicating with your cat, you can use any full moon to do that. ☺️ Since it sounds like you are just beginning your journey with spirit communication, I would highly suggest assessing whatever fear you may be holding onto. If you go into spirit work feeling fearful, you will most likely have a fearful experience. But if you feel confident, then go for it! Opening a portal for bad things is actually a lot harder than you might think. The most that would probably happen is nothing at all. But if you are concerned about opening a portal for bad things then definitely don't attempt to work with spirits yet. You might freak yourself out and that's definitely not a good thing. What usually happens when beginners start moving into spirit work is nothing - no communication and dead energy. It takes a lot of practice so definitely get started if you're feeling good about it! ☺️
I like the Nighttime. The Earth is quiet. The air is still
Just curious how we can work with Earth please? 🌏 🙏
I'm just curious, Ivy, have you ever woke up at dawn to perform a liminal space spell? I am such a night creature! 🌙 Thanks for your video!!!
Yes, I have! But I am also a night creature and it felt terrible 😂😂😂
Did I just do a large money ritual and make a money bowl on the first Full Moon in Capricorn (Wed into Thurs) on my birthday this year with Jupiter, Saturn, And Venus energy? Yes,... Yes I did.
Did I nap beforehand in order to charge up for the working? Yes, yes I did. 😂
I gave birth on Halloween October 31 to my daughter. I do money spells on the new moon 🌚 I do need to do protection spell . To protect me from people.
Stupid youtube~! Never notified me that there was this video and the one after! I thought maybe you were taking a break! >=P lol
What the heck!! I hate when RUclips does that 😂
I literally end up passing out on a full moon or missing it so I’m glad I’m not the only one 💀😭
28:00 ❤
Im here because of a friend
15:32 What if the full moon is actually making you more intuitively aware to something nauseating that's always there?
i always think the sun is born on capricorn, i dunno, solstice and perihelion
You don't feel good on a full moon because you're actually a werewolf, you just don't remember it very well
As a midwife I think full moons make women go into labor- or storms ⛈️
Anyone that says there is nothing unusual about the full moon has never worked in a hospital. I worked for the last 10 years in hospital ERs, the last year on midnights, and those of us that worked there made sure we were prepared mentally and physically for those nights. There is a definite difference!
Yes, exactly!!! 🙌
So first thing i thought of when you mentioned not feeling well on a full moon, was parasites. Ive been dealing with Autoimmune symptoms since 2018 and i have been doing alot of reading everywhere i can find information and comparing my symptoms. And many of these detoxs mention doing cleanses specifically on full moons its just a hunch, but its worth looking into.
You doing a really great job on your channel!! If I was you I would employ P r o m o s m!!
