The Flower Moon, which shines in May, is a celebration of abundance, personal growth, and creative expression. Named for the vibrant blossoms that fill the landscape in late spring, this moon invites us to recognise the beauty, growth, and creative energy within and around us. It’s a time to appreciate what has bloomed in our lives, nurture our passions, and revel in nature’s bounty.

For witches, the Flower Moon offers an ideal moment to reflect on our own journeys and celebrate all we have nurtured and created. This moon is perfect for spells focused on personal growth, creativity, and manifesting abundance in all forms.
