GOOD WITCH/BAD WITCH ART EXHIBIT 2020

Goodwitch/Badwitch   is a group exhibition that explores the intersection of contemporary art, ritual and witchcraft/Brujeria. Through the work of over 40 artists and witches, the exhibit aims to help drive a more modern understanding of what witchcraft, magic and technology is.

As an Afro-Latina, my mission on this project is to utilize this space with as much artwork created by Black and POC creators and visionaries as I feel the world needs to see our  magic now more than ever. We are open to all submissions however, I am calling Black & POC witches and healers to the front. If you are an artist that works in mediums  (but not limited to) photography, painting, poetry please submit your work. 

My vision is to create a modern grimoire of hand written spells  to be featured in the gallery you may submit them to info@museumofmuseums.com we would prefer them by mail send  to: Hoodwitch, C/O Museum of Museums, PO Box 20026, Seattle WA 98102.  Submissions for artwork consideration MUST be submitted by August 21, 2020 include you name, Instagram handle, website/portfolio links !!

Be sure to follow @Thehoodwitch and @MomArtSeattle for updates!

Sensual Manifesting with the Taurus Full Moon

Artwork by Janet Hill

The sensual Taurus Full Moon occurs on November 12th. For the first time, in a while, we will all feel the healing and tender lunar energy of the Moon. This lovely luminary is a time to worship the body, heart, soul and spirit. Our sexual passions will be peaked, as well as our desire to create. 

The Moon is exalted in Taurus. Meaning, it loves to reside in the Bullish sign because the Moon loves to eat, drink, and be merry — all sentiments of Taurus, who is ruled by Venus. Mercury, who is retrograde in Scorpio, will allow us to transform and augment projects, goals, and relationships — even offering us the chance to rid ourselves of that which isn’t serving our highest purpose anymore. Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto all touch this luminary, making it an ideal time to manifest our dreams. The earthy Moon will use Saturn, Neptune, and Pluto to cleanse us of the past, making us feel reborn as a result. Mars and Jupiter also collide the same day as the Taurus Full Moon, giving us the determination and hope we need to move forward. These planets will act as a catalyst heighten our lust for live and sexual inclinations. 

The Sabian symbol for the Taurus Full Moon is “Wisps Of Winglike Clouds Streaming Across The Sky.” We can create the future by augmenting our present circumstances. We will be able to transcend, as long as we wash away old views. This luminary is high time to indulge our fantasies and yearnings. We are also called upon to purge our minds, hearts, and bodies of old dreams or visions we had — with the incentive of replacing them with the newer version. 

Through orgasmic and sacred sexual manifestation, we can visualize our dreams and put them into play. It will give us the motivation and energy to embrace the next phase of our lives and evolve. 

*The Full Moon occurs November 12th at 5:34AM PST and 8:34AM EST.

Taurus moon ritual

Place rose quartz and rose petals around your body. Eat a sweet decadent treat like chocolate or a truffle. Put on your most sensual outfit (like lingerie or a silk robe — anything that makes you feel amazing). Make a toast to honor (Taurus’s planetary ruler) with wine or champagne. Play some soft tunes. Light pink candles to honor Venus. Try to feel and connect with your body. Lay down under or by a window (if you’re adventurous go outside). Let the Moon’s energy consume you. Feel the lunar vibes take over your body. Place your hand on your heart to connect with your emotions. With your yoni or linga facing the Moon, start to pleasure yourself. As you start to climax, meditate on what you want to release and bring in to your life. Think about what you can let go of and start that will elevate your life to the next level. What you’ll find, is that you’re able to release all the negativity and toxins that are dormant in your body through your orgasms. You’ll be able to bring in positive energy and incentives for the future through orgasmic manifestation.
