It’s that time of year, my loves!

As the crisp air of autumn settles in, we are stepping into one of the most potent and mysterious times of the year—Samhain, the Witch’s New Year. This ancient festival, with roots in Celtic traditions, marks the end of the harvest. A time when the veil between worlds is thin, shadow work calls us deep, and the dark feminine stirs in our bones. Add in the smoldering energy of Scorpio season, and you’ve got a deliciously seductive cocktail of magick, mystery, and yes—unapologetic sexual empowerment!

I’ve been so busy this month, juggling all the beautiful chaos that comes with being a mom of three boys! My days have been full, but I’ve made sure to take my own advice—slowing down, honoring my energy, and moving at my own pace. And now, here we are, just 5 days away from Samhain! I’ll be sharing another post soon on why this season has always held such special meaning for me over the years.

For now, let’s jump into how Samhain and Scorpio season ignite the sacred feminine, sexuality, and shadow work in the spiciest of ways.

The Origins of Samhain: A Portal to the Underworld

Samhain, pronounced “Sow-en,” is an ancient Celtic festival that honors the end of the harvest and the beginning of the dark half of the year. The Celts believed that during this time, the veil between the world of the living and the spirit world was at its thinnest, making it the perfect time for rituals, honoring ancestors, and communing with the unseen realms. The spirit of Samhain is about transformation, death, and rebirth. It’s a portal to the underworld, where we can confront our deepest fears and desires.

This is where the sacred feminine comes into play. Divine feminine energy thrives in the shadows—she is the wild woman, the witch, the priestess, unafraid of darkness and death. She knows that in the shadows lies the power to shed old skin and release what no longer serves, making room to birth something new and wildly authentic.

Shadow Work: The Magick of the Dark Feminine

Samhain invites us to go beyond the surface, to delve into our shadows and face the parts of ourselves we often keep hidden. Shadow work is a powerful practice during this time, as it asks us to look at our fears, wounds, and desires head-on. And let’s be honest—this can get a little messy, so be gentle and loving.

The dark feminine archetype, like the intense energy of Scorpio, asks us to embrace our most raw, unapologetic selves. Think of goddesses like Kali, Lilith, and Persephone—all of whom embody the power of destruction and creation. They show us that if we are brave enough to dive deep into our shadows we can access and unlock our true power. During Samhain, we are invited to tap into this fierce feminine energy to shed what’s holding us back and make room for our most authentic selves to rise.

Scorpio Season: Sexuality, Sensuality, and Rebirth

Speaking of rising, let’s talk about Scorpio season, the perfect match for Samhain’s powerful energy! Ruled by Pluto, the planet of transformation and the underworld, Scorpio is all about passion, intensity, and deep sexual energy. This season calls us to dive headfirst into our sensuality, tapping into that raw, unapologetic power within.

As we celebrate Samhain, we’re not just honoring the end of the harvest—we’re embracing our own cycles of death, rebirth, and transformation. Scorpio’s energy heightens our intuition and invites us to embrace our sexuality as sacred. This is your time to explore that deep, primal part of yourself without shame or fear.

Reconnect with your body, your pleasure, and your desires. What lights your fire? What awakens your Inner Vixen? Let this Scorpionic energy inspire you to fully embrace your erotic self. Erotic embodiment is more than just pleasure—it’s a powerful tool for transformation. By reclaiming your sacred sexuality, you unlock the ability to manifest your desires, creating magick in every corner of your life ✨

The Sacred Feminine and Sexual Reclamation

Feminine sexuality has been repressed for centuries and still happening to this day. The energies of Samhain and Scorpio season offer us a chance to reclaim our power. The sacred feminine thrives on pleasure, sensuality, and erotic embodiment. This is the perfect time to shed the old narratives that tell you your sexuality is something to be hidden or ashamed of. Instead, step boldly into your power. Your sensuality is your superpower, and pleasure is your birthright.

Engage in sensual rituals—whether that’s dancing naked under the moon, indulging in intentional self-pleasure, or simply adorning yourself in luxurious fabrics that make you feel like a goddess. Let your body be a vessel of pleasure, and know that by doing so, you’re tapping into one of the most potent sources of feminine power!

Tapping into Your Inner Vixen

Scorpio season is all about depth, intimacy, and owning your desires. It’s time to let your Inner Vixen out to play! Your Inner Vixen is that part of you that’s bold, wildly authentic, and simply unapologetic. She’s not afraid to dive into the shadows because she knows that’s where the true magick lies. Sensual movement practices (like Vixen Flow– so yummy! – click this link to learn more) are perfect during this time—they allow you to tap into your erotic energy and embody your most powerful, sensual self.

Let your body move in ways that feel good. Moan, stretch, and writhe. Connect with the rhythm of your breath and the beat of your heart. The dark feminine craves this connection with your body, and it’s through this embodied state that you’ll unlock new levels of self-love, confidence, and pleasure.

Shadow Work & Self-Love Practice: Ritual Bath

Here’s a shadow work and self-love practice I’d love for you to try. Lately, I’ve felt deeply called to create sacred ritual baths, so I’m sharing this beautiful practice with you:

1. Set the Scene: Create a sacred space in your bathroom with candles, your favorite sensual oils, and crystals like black tourmaline, amethyst, labradorite, carnelian, obsidian and rose quartz or whatever you’re drawn to. I’ve been drawn to garnet and moldavite these days.
2. Energetic Cleanse: Cleanse your space with incense or sage. If you don’t have these items, tidying up and opening a window can also create an energetic shift.
3. Set Your Intention: As you fill your tub with water, set an intention and speak it lovingly into your water. Add in flowers, salts, and herbs or again, whatever calls to you.
4. Step Into Your Intention: As you immerse yourself into your bathwater feel yourself stepping into your intention and being held and nurtured by the energy of the water and your sacred space.
5. Somatic Attunement: Tune into your body. Where do you feel tension or emotion stored? Place your hands there, breathe deeply, and invite the energy of love and release.
6. Pleasure Practice: If it feels right, add in a pleasure practice to help reconnect with your body and your pleasure. As you do, visualize yourself shedding old layers, like a snake shedding its skin, ready to emerge renewed.
7. Journal: Bring in your favorite journal to write what comes up. Here are some questions you can ask yourself – What parts of myself am I afraid to look at? What have I repressed in my sexuality or desires? Write freely, without judgment.

In Conclusion: Let Samhain Seduce You

Samhain and Scorpio season are an invitation to dive deep into your shadows, embrace your feminine power, and reclaim your sexuality. It’s a time for ritual, reflection, and sensual embodiment. By honoring the cycles of death and rebirth, you are honoring the cycles within yourself—the parts of you that are ready to be released and the new, powerful aspects of you that are waiting to emerge.

So light a candle, call in your ancestors, and let the energy of Samhain seduce you into the deepest parts of yourself. Trust in the wisdom of the sacred feminine, and let her guide you through the underworld and into your most erotic, embodied self.

Blessed Samhain, sensual souls! Let your magick shine 🖤
