Dudettes and Darling Dudes, welcome to the 🫛party!

Friday, 17 April 2026 the Moon comes to what may feel like a closing segment to her cyclical and illuminating ways. Alas! It has all only just begun. Sit with the sisters for a bit as they begin to understand that this dark phase is only just the beginning of an ancestral prayer and ancient ritual. Britt swoops in to chat NASA, Artemis, and My. Very. Educated. Mother.

For any of you brave folks out there who took a page from last week's episode and decided this was your year to get down and dig into Self and some Ritual... now that you have a small, intentional altar set up in your space, senses, and schedule, let's put some meaning behind your practices.

The ladies tell you all about how you can do that at this very potent and liminal space of time, that are the dark skies and the New Moon. As usual, grab some paper and a pen to jot down the ideas as they come at you. And if you want to see them all written out for you... Instagram has you taken care of!

Given there is a tarot pull in the episode we decided to go heavy on the editing and chopped out two full pieces:

♈️♋️♎️♓️ Zodiac chat will make it into the Full Moon episode

and

🌾🌸🌿🛁 Herbs for your New Moon Bath ritual are right here:

🌿 Mugwort + Blue Lotus - increase intuition, inner exploration, and connecting with the subconscious
🌿 Basil + Rosemary - are classic energy cleansing herbs used to move energy, clear stagnation, and cleanse any personal space

🪻 Lavender - calms the senses and energies and helps to promote focus while softening the onset of new beginnings

🪾 As always, Palo Santo, Incense, and Sage are great ways to smudge and clear any space you are looking to use in a centering, focused, and meditative way.

📚 Books Mentioned in the episode are:
Johanna Paungger + Thomas Poppe
The Power of Timing: Living in Harmony with Natural and Lunar Rhythms
(original title: Aus eigener Kraft)

and
