Doors are opening, and this week hands you the keys. We step into a Scorpio super new moon framed by a grand water trine and a chorus of retrogrades, the perfect mix for deep release and potent seeding. I guide you through what to shed at the dark moon, how to stabilize your energy when solar weather leaves you drained, and why gratitude and word magic tune your field for effortless receiving.

We start with the still point: blessing what’s ending, letting old identities go, and grounding watery emotion with earth energy. Then we pivot to clear, simple new moon intentions you can plant Thursday through Sunday, using brown for stability and a short list that focuses your power. As the weekend leans into Sagittarius and the early Yule current, I share fire rituals—candle or bonfire—that convert vision into a single decisive action. Expect practical timing cues, from release work midweek to a social energy lift over the weekend.

Throughout, I offer mantras and reframes that keep your frequency clean: “The road is open, the path is clear, obstacles are removed.” We also zoom out to the bigger cycles closing now—a nine‑year chapter by year’s end and the seven‑year Uranus in Taurus arc finishing in spring—so you can honor how far you’ve come and claim where you’re going. If you’re ready to anchor this portal with support, I invite you into The Winter Rite: seasonal rituals through solstice to 1/1 that help you end well and begin brighter. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves moon magic, and leave a review with your one intention for the week—what are you igniting next?

Magical Michelle Orwick (00:20):
Welcome to Living Magically for the
week of November 17th.
And I am your host, MagicalMichelle.
This week we have so many bigthings.
If you're looking for a week todo magic or to make miracles or

(00:40):
to change your energy, you'vegot it.
So as we lean into the new moonin Scorpio that will be
happening on way early morning,Thursday morning.
For some places, it might stilleven be Wednesday night.
So it's like 1.45 EasternStandard Time on Thursday

(01:04):
morning is the new moon inScorpio, and it's a super moon.
So what would I do first?
I'm recording this Mondaymorning in um beautiful Orlando,
and one of the things that Ilook at is a dark moon, and this
will be one of the darkestbecause that pregnant pause.

(01:30):
It's the end of the fallharvest, it's the end of the sow
in season, it's the end of anera, which is the fall harvest.
We look at that still point ofthe dark moon, the still point
of the moon as it'sdisseminating into the still

(01:52):
point.
And so Wednesday night, evenwould be a very beautiful night
to do all the release work, allthe letting go, and all of the
work to stabilize your energyfield.
There's six planets inretrograde, to some, some say,

(02:14):
some say it's five, depends onwhether you count Pluto as a
planet, but either way, we havea lot of planets in retrograde.
We have a lot of review, renew,reboot, realign energy going on
right now.
And with that, we also havegeomagnetic storms, we have

(02:36):
solar energy that is infusing usand making us feel tired and
exhausted and wanting us to gointo a review state and an
upgrade.
And so, in this, what identityare you letting go?
It's Scorpio season, which isall about the Phoenix uh

(02:57):
transformation work, all aboutthe letting go of the old
identity, all about who have youbeen reviewing that, blessing
it, loving it, releasing itlovingly.
If it was a good thing, thankit.
If it was a bad thing, alsothink it, because look at what

(03:20):
lesson you learned from it, andrelease that with grace and
ease.
And as we move into the newmoon, this will be potent work
that you can do on Thursday.
You can do that work Thursday,Friday, Saturday, even Sunday,
but obviously Thursday being theactual day of the Grand Water

(03:44):
Tribe and the actual day of thenew moon, this is where I would
be planting my seeds for thefuture.
It's really a beautiful,spacious, um, powerful new moon.
It's a it's a supermoon, it'sin Scorpio, so it's double
transformation energy.

(04:05):
Um, anytime we have this newmoon, um, which is always about
this time of year, we look at umwe look at that transformation
and rebirth energy.
And because there's so muchgoing on, I like to work with
brown for stabilization, forgrounding.

(04:27):
Since it is water, we sometimesneed to earth.
And when we're planting seeds,we want to create that fertile
soil to plant the seed for nextyear.
We're at the end cycles, thelast days of winter, the last

(04:47):
days of actually the last daysof fall and moving into this
winter season.
And I've created an offeringcalled the Winter Rite.
If that is something you wishto join us on this season of
powerful transformation, we wehave our first ritual on um

(05:08):
Thursday to honor this potentnew moon.
Um, and we will work all theway through the end of um into
the new year.
We'll we'll honor the wintersolstice, we'll we'll do the
work all the way to our lastritual, we'll be on one one of
next year, which is a triple oneday, um, the big first day of a

(05:33):
new year, a one year.
Um, and and so as we end thisyear of the snake, what are you
releasing?
And this is it's it's a dualenergy when you have a new moon.
This is the darkness where youcan shed, it's the still point
where you can connect and seedand create and really bring

(06:00):
something potent in.
It's a grand water trine.
Jupiter is in Cancer, uh,Pisces is in a Saturn is in
Pisces, so this makes a trine alot of retrograde energy makes
us in a renewal and rebootenergy where we get to have it

(06:22):
any way we want it, we get tocreate it as we rebirth, as we
restore, renew, and and create.
So it's it's a potent andbeautiful time.
Then after that new moon, as wejust have a few days of that
last bit of Scorpio, we moveover the weekend into

(06:47):
Sagittarius season.
We start the Yule season, westart what I consider the
winter, the darkest months.
The the sun is getting shorterevery single day, and it will
all the way till Yule.
And so we go into thishibernation mode, this internal

(07:08):
mode.
So if you feel like goinginwards into ritual, into
meditation, into stillness, thisis the natural rhythm of
things, and it's accentuatedright now by all the
retrogrades.
I know a lot of people hateMercury retrograde, but I do

(07:30):
actually have a fondness for itbecause we have an opportunity
to clear the slate.
Sometimes things come back fromyour past to heal, sometimes
things come in as a resource orto renew.
Sometimes really good peopleand things come back in to be um

(07:55):
a new resource.
So I I do love this time as anopportunity to contract, then
expand.
So there's a lot of beautiful,powerful opportunity here in
your heart, in your mind, inyour soul.

(08:17):
And so over the weekend, you'llstill have that new moon
energy, but you'll be movinginto the Sagittarius energy.
So I love some good candlemagic or bonfire magic.
This is a good week to reallyput into place your new moon
wish list, your next yearintentions, your transformation.

(08:41):
Fire is transformation.
As Scorpio is transformation,but it's water, it's flow.
So with this new moon,Thursday's energy is more about
accumulating, washing away,cleansing, and removing, seeing
the flow of abundance, plantingthat seed.
The weekend energy is moreabout what's that one action

(09:06):
step?
What are we going to ignite?
What are we going to fire up?
What are we going to bring in?
It might actually be a reallygood time for socializing of the
whole season.
That might be the perfect timebecause you will see a lot of of

(09:26):
more energy.
Um, you might feel like you'vebeen tired and run down and get
a little boost of energy overthe weekend.
So what I'm I'm going to inviteyou to do is spend some time
reviewing.
Review, renew, realign.

(09:47):
Spend some time intending.
Spend some time creating.
Spend some time being veryintentional, but also be
patient.
Be patient with everyone aroundyou.
Move into gratitude.
We're starting to get reallyclose to Thanksgiving, and

(10:08):
gratitude is my key tomanifesting, and we'll talk more
about that on next week's call.
But in this, I invite you toreally see how far you've come.
This season, we are looking atreviewing up to nine years.

(10:30):
The last nine years will beclosing at the end of December.
In April, we'll be closing theUranus Taurus portal, which will
mean reviewing the last sevenyears.
So look at how far you've comeand get an idea of where you're
going.

(10:50):
And with that, ignite theflame.
The linear the flame allows youto be a part of the essence of
transformation.
When we see the end of Scorpioseason, we wash away, cleanse,

(11:11):
and remove.
As we see the beginning ofSagittarius season, we ignite,
align, and create.
And it's this beautiful portal.
So use it to your advantage andbe gentle with yourself, be
loving, and be careful stillwith your words.

(11:32):
Be careful because your wordscan be used to empower, or your
words can be used to destroy.
And I choose to use my words asoften as I possibly can to
create.
And I am not perfect.
I catch myself all the timewanting to redo my words or

(11:54):
redoing my energy.
But that's the key, right?
It isn't that you're going tobe perfect, but your frequency
is based on realigning.
So if you feel like you're off,realign.
If you feel like what you justsaid wasn't potent, wasn't
powerful, or it was powerful inthe wrong direction and you

(12:14):
didn't want what you just said,just literally say, universe,
that is not what I want.
What I really want is this.
And get really intentional.
So if you said something like,oh, it's never gonna work out
for me.
No, universe, what I reallywant is to remember that
everything always works out forme.

(12:36):
I am the luckiest girl in theworld, or I'm the luckiest man
in the world, and everything isalways working out for me.
Show me.
And right now, there is doorsopening, there is paths opening.
And so I like to use the words,the road is open, the path is

(13:00):
clear, obstacles are removed,and everything's going my way.
So you just start talking toyourself and the people around
you, and the energy and theuniverse, and creator or
goddess, whatever it is thatyou're talking to, and you
literally state, whether it'sout loud, in your mind's eye, on

(13:26):
paper, however you want tostate it, really remember that
you're in a creative mode.
You're creating the version ofyou that's coming.
So thank you for all that wealready are.
Thank you for all that wealready have.
Thank you for all that we'reopen to receive, and thank you

(13:51):
for all that is still to comeand all that we are becoming.
And that, my friends, is theprayer.
That is the opening I am opento receive.
I am already whole, I'm alreadycomplete, I already have it
all, and I'm open to receive it.
I'm open to receive divinemessages, divine guidance, and

(14:15):
act on it.
I'm open to receive surprises,abundance, gifts, and I'm open
to receive clarity, truth, andopportunity.
I am open to miracles.
I am a miracle worker.
I am a love leader.

(14:36):
And as you do that, you'reremembering.
So remembering who you are,remembering what you're here
for, remembering what the nextstep is.
And if I can serve you in anyway, if it's time to take that
deeper dive and you wish to dosome deeper coaching with me,

(14:57):
now is the time.
I have um opened up my calendarfor the month of December.
It is the perfect time to getrealigned and really clear on
what must go to finish out thisnine year and what must be open

(15:17):
to awaken the next version ofyou as we step through this
portal, step through thisseason.
And again, I've created thiswinter right, a very affordable
opportunity to work in a in aspiritual group.
Um, we we're gonna meet fourtimes during this.

(15:38):
It's sponsored by our beautifulwitch school and our magic
classes, and it's rituals tohelp you end and close this
season and awaken to the God orgoddess within, awaken to the
version of you that you alreadyare, to find closure in the year

(16:01):
of the snake and open up to theone year to bring that energy
to your deep heart, soul, mind,and to connect to it in a way
that is profound.
And so, again, this new moon,one of the best for really

(16:25):
planting the seeds, it's thetime of year that we plant for
the harvest.
I always think of that BetteMidler song that the seed become
that with the sun's lovebecomes the rose.
With the rose lineage,especially being so close to my

(16:46):
near and dear to my heart, withthe flame lineage being part of
who I am and the phoenixpriestess of who I am.
This Scorpio transformationalmoon is one I use every year to
seed what is coming for me andfor you and for the collective

(17:07):
consciousness.
This is where that new moon,new you really comes into play
as we plant and ignite thoseintentions.
So, with all of that, I wishyou a magical week, an
absolutely intentional week.
And remember, you already are.

(17:30):
Remember you are magic.
So, live magically.
