The Pink Moon, rising in April, signifies the beauty and renewal of spring in full bloom. Named not for its colour but for the wild pink phlox that often flowers in early spring, the Pink Moon represents blossoming life, love, and fertility. This is a time when nature’s beauty is fully awakening, and our intentions can grow and flourish along with it.

For witches, the Pink Moon is ideal for working on love, creativity, and manifesting new goals. It encourages us to open our hearts, nurture our dreams, and embrace a sense of joy and connection with the world around us. In this post, we’ll explore the Pink Moon’s magical associations and share spells that tap into its vibrant, loving energy.
