This Week On The Covenstead – 11-9-26

Posted on November 9, 2026 by runa

Turning The Soil Of The Moon

A mostly bare tree branch reaches towards the waxing crescent moon.  Photo by G. RotheCommuning with that new moon in Scorpio is on the agenda today.

Happy New Moon in Scorpio, Witches. I hope its energy of transformation and alignment with the deepest parts of yourself helps you in your journey to be your most authentic self and live your best life. Just get ready to dig deep.

If you’re wondering astrologically what’s coming up this week, allow me to share one of the weekly astro reports I always appreciate from Foxy Astrology. Since personally I have lots of fixed and water energy in my natal chart, this one hit especially. 

After you’re in the know about the astrology, a small moment of meditating on the energy and reciting this mantra (spell) might just shift something for you. Like most Scorpio energy, it knows what it wants. If you’re feeling sure about the ‘what,’ work in gratitude for that energy from the cosmos. You can simply recite it over morning coffee or light a candle at your altar. You decide. 

Beneath the Scorpio moon

I turn the soil of what I hide.

Let truth take root in the dark;

Let what is ready rise.

I meet my depths with courage,

Leave with only what is mine. 

I’ll be spending some time this morning under Grandmother Willow to do my own spellwork, under that sliver of silver in the sky (moon rise today near me is ~ 0802 hrs.). 

And if that’s not enough magic for you for the week, be sure you catch up with all the magic I published last week, including the New Moon Rune Cast, the latest Wild Covenant lesson, and the Witches of Letters Creativity Prompt.

Once you’re caught up, here’s what’s coming up this week and beyond:

 At The Garden Gate: Thresholds and Liminal Spaces; Warding Your Gate

Front-Porch Sitting: The Rebirth of the Witch Activist; Ancestral Family Dynamics

Under The Willow: Walking The Path of The Elder Futhark Lesson 3 

In The Witch’s Garden: Diversity in Practice; Wild Covenant Lesson 3

At The Witch’s Table: The Mysticism of the Hearth; Cooking from the Garden; Belly Magic Lesson 2

Dream Circle: Dream Interpretation – Why You May Need Outside Help; Dream Record Check-In

Studio Spirit Squad: Spellcraft in Art; Creativity Workshop (Nov. 18)

Thank you for reading. Now go soak up that new moon energy! 

Do Good; Be Magic,
