The Divine Feminine and the Moon
If you choose to turn your attention to Triple Goddess Day on 6 January, a time to honour the Maiden, Mother, and Crone, you’ll pleased to know that the three sacred faces of the divine feminine flow with the Moon’s phases. Each aspect carries its own magic, guiding us through beginnings, abundance, and endings, and aligning our rituals with the rhythms of nature.
The Maiden rises with the waxing moon, bringing fresh energy and curiosity. This is a perfect time to plant intentions, call in opportunities, and embrace courage for new ventures. Colours like pale green, soft yellow, and delicate pink, along with herbs such as mint and rosemary, can help spark inspiration. Crystals like moonstone and citrine amplify intuition and clarity, setting the stage for growth in the months ahead.
When the Moon shines full, the Mother blooms in all her nurturing power. She embodies abundance, creativity, and protection, guiding rituals that celebrate prosperity, relationships, and personal growth. Rich reds, golds, and deep greens, along with rose, chamomile, or honey, invite vitality and heart-centred magic. Carnelian, garnet, and jade support courage, fertility, and the fullness of life.
Finally, as the Moon wanes, the Crone emerges with deep wisdom, calling us to release what no longer serves us. This is the time for reflection, divination, and ancestral communion. Dark purples, indigos, and blacks, with herbs like mugwort or sage, and grounding crystals such as obsidian and smoky quartz, empower transformative endings and protection.
You can align your Triple Goddess Day practice with the Moon’s phase (just coming out of a Full Moon on the 3rd), or invite all three aspects in a single ritual: open with Maiden intention-setting, flow into Mother blessings, and close with Crone release. Three candles in phase-aligned colours can anchor your work, weaving the magic of beginnings, fullness, and endings into one sacred circle.
Step into the new year guided by the Triple Goddess, and let her cyclical wisdom shape your path with grace, courage, and enchantment.
