February 2024: New moon in Aquarius
Open up for a tarot spread and personal values exercise for this new moon!
Thank you to the lovely souls who sent some tips my way! Your love and support keep me going with this labor of love each moon cycle! If you’d like to support this work, you’ll find a link to my tip jar below, along with an invitation to join me in Moonshine, a year-long journey with the cycles of the moon. <3
The February 2024 new moon falls in the sign of Aquarius, and highlights our sense of self-worth and self-esteem, which are intrinsically tied to our finances, our emotions, and the things we value. This Aquarius moon encourages us to reflect on our tangible and intangible possessions (our feelings and emotions, as well as our inner selves, needs and wants) and our values — specifically on the ways in which our material possessions are either harming or supporting us.
Ideally, our possessions should bring us a sense of well-being rather than a feeling of being surrounded by things that just don’t really feel like us. This leads us to question what we value (both tangibly and intangibly) and why, and to examine what we own, what we want to own, and why. Being mindful around purchase decisions around this lunation would be wise.
You’ll find the full astro-tarot forecast, tarot spread and a personal values exercise on the website.
Thank you for making these tarot spreads a part of your new and full moon rituals! Creating these each month is a labor of love, fueled by stardust and coffee!
Want to send me a coffee and support this work? {Please mention ‘stardust’ in the notes so I can keep track of where my coffee is coming from! ;-)}
You can also support this offering by sharing it on socials or forwarding it to your friends and inviting them to subscribe to this newsletter. Every little bit helps!

Are you interested in learning art witchery, establishing your own art witch practice, and using mixed media art as a spiritual tool? Join me on Moonshine 2024 - a year-long journey into the realm of moon-based art witchery in all its glorious forms, hosted by Effy Wild!
You will be joining a coven of art witches, some of whom {including me} have been in the program since its inception in this format six years ago!
Here’s what you get:
Membership in this year’s Moonshine Coven + Lifetime membership in Moonshine Cafe (both on Facebook).
Lifetime access to the course materials.
A monthly PDF of written musings, including an art witch primer with suggested activities and resources that, when collected over the course of the year, forms a complete training system in art witchery. Included within the course materials are art witch tips, new essential oil blends, astro-tarot forecasts, oracle reading layouts, herbal lore and crystal lore.
A full-length monthly painting tutorial (downloadable video + PDF walkthrough).
Documentation for each full and new moon, both of which include astro-tarot forecasts and oracle reading layouts.
A new painting demonstration for the new moon (filmed live on Zoom so we can paint together + offered as a downloadable replay for those who can’t attend live).
A new painting demonstration for the full moon (offered as a downloadable pre-recorded speed painting) with notes on how I’m engaging the current energies.
A live activation gathering on Zoom in the first week of the month (also offered as a downloadable replay). In these gatherings, we read the content together, do Q&A, check-ins and draw a tarot card to establish our ‘coven work’ (optional) for the month.
A coupon code for $90 off for next year’s Moonshine 2025.
This experience is meant to give you deep training in art witchery AND mixed media art as a spiritual tool with an emphasis on establishing your own art witch practice based on thorough, scaffolded guidance that will get you sound, self-possessed, and in pursuit of your most deeply held desired outcomes.
