On July 25, there will be a Full Moon.  This Full Moon is called the Wort Moon.  It is also known as the Blessing Moon, the Hey Moon, the Buck Moon and the Thunder Moon.  This is the time of year when the vegetables start to ripen and the berries grow ready to be picked.  Because this is the time of the first harvest, it is also a wonderful time for spiritual harvest — a time when personal psychic abilities are more potent, divination readings become clearer, and dreams are filled with prophesy and vision.

As the Wort Moon of July waxes to full, it is a perfect time for gathering herbs.  The word “wort” is old Anglo-Saxon for “herb”.  One of the herbs I like to gather at this time of year is mugwort, also known as ‘ Magickal Mugwort”.  Mugwort grows wild where I live.  If you can’t find wild mugwort, you can obtain some from any herbal shop or online.  Mugwort is used for removing negative energy and psychic growth. 

Mugwort steeped in spring water is great for cleaning crystals and other scrying tools.  Using this same infusion for cleaning mirrors in the home is a good idea, as mirrors are said to hold negative energy.  A small pouch of Mugwort placed in the pillow and slept upon is said to bring lucid dreams.  Mugwort, when mixed with sandalwood and burned during meditation and scrying rituals, is said to increase psychic visions.  It is also useful to banish interference prior to divination such as a Tarot reading or Rune casting.  Mugwort kept with a Tarot deck will keep one spread or reading from interfering with the next.  This is just one of the many herbs you can gather at the Wort Moon.

As the Wort Moon draws near, we can listen for the sound of distant thunder that may bring a sudden summer storm to relieve the heat and quench the garden.  This is a magical time of year!  My wish for you and yours is love light and many summer Blessings.
