Welcome back to Twin Stars, the podcast where cosmic wisdom meets everyday magic. In this devotional episode, Jamie (@houseofmage) and Josie (@basickvvitch) walk the Road to Samhain with the First Quarter Moon (Tuesday, October 29). This is a liminal threshold when the veil thins, action meets reverence, and doors open to ancestors and unseen allies. We explore Samhain and Día de los Muertos traditions, protection magic, ancestral healing, and a void-space ritual to bridge soul star and earth star. Our oracle, Sparks of Light, brings giddy hope and next-step clarity.

In this episode, you’ll explore:
🖤 First Quarter Moon medicine, act with intention, choose and cross thresholds
🖤 Samhain and Día de los Muertos, remembrance, ofrendas, protection, welcoming helpful spirits
🖤 Scorpio season themes, transformation, fixed water, the subconscious and the unseen
🖤 Ancestral work, accepting lineage to avoid ghosts, healing backward through embodiment
🖤 Protection practices, black and white candles, archangel quadrant, warding customs
🖤 Chakric pagan wheel, the eighth liminal bridge that links crown to root, color magic across the season
🖤 Automatic writing, brain dump and spirit-led pen for messages when the veil is thin
🖤 Oracle, Sparks of Light, follow tingles of aliveness, one spark leads to the next

Episode Prompts:
🦇 What action am I willing to take at this threshold
🕯️ How will I honor my ancestors with love, not fear
🗡️ What protection am I putting in place for the dark half of the year

Welcome back to Twin Stars, the podcast where cosmic wisdom meets everyday magic.

In this devotional episode, Jamie (@houseofmage) and Josie (@basickvvitch) honor the Aries Full Moon (Monday, October 6). This lunation ignites will, clarifies instinct, and crowns sacred rage as a compass. With Mars in Scorpio and Mercury entering Scorpio, the skies amplify raw courage, piercing truth, and electric words. Together we explore Artemis & the Hunt as an Aries archetype, practical ways to move fire through the body, and a powerful oracle, to guide generosity and warrior-hearted action.

✨ In this episode, you’ll explore:
🔥 Aries medicine: instinct, initiative, sacred rage, and bold action
🔥 Mars in Scorpio + Mercury in Scorpio: sharp clarity, stinging speech, transformative truth
🔥 Artemis as protector and huntress: sacred boundaries, justice, devotion to the wild
🔥 How to honor anger as sacred, nourish it rather than suppress it
🔥 Practical Magic: move fire (breathwork, dance, drumming), make one decisive choice, write and burn ritual
🔥 Oracle: Splendor Solis (Sun’s Splendor), generosity, health, abundance, divine masculine balance
🔥 Crown-chakra threads at the equinox threshold, lightning to void to renewal
🔥 Lunation reversal: why this season starts with a full moon tone-setter before its new moon

What wants decisive action right now?
Where can I honor sacred rage without harm, giving it form, space, and purpose?
