What Makes the Flower Moon Magical?

May’s Full Moon, known as the Flower Moon, symbolizes blooming, sensuality, and the full power of spring. In Scorpio, it becomes a moon of emotional healing, shadow work, and transformation—perfect for kitchen witchcraft.

The Ritual Recipe: Lavender Honey Cakes

You’ll need:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 1/2 cup honey

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

• 2 eggs

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 1/2 tsp dried culinary lavender

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp baking powder

• Pinch of salt

Instructions (with a touch of magic)

1. Set the mood: Light a candle. Clean your space. Play something soft and stormy. Keep a journal or scrap paper close.

2. Begin with release:
   As you cream the butter, honey, and sugar, breathe deeply.
   Whisper aloud or write down what emotional baggage you’re ready to release.

3. Infuse your spell:
   Add eggs, vanilla, and lavender, mixing gently.
   Stir in your hopes, your healing, your magic. What sweetness do you want more of?

4. Fold and bake:
   Mix in the dry ingredients.
   Spoon batter into cupcake tins or mini loaf pans and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12–15 minutes, until golden and fragrant.

5. Bless under the moon:
   Once cooled, place a cake (or your whole tray!) by a window where moonlight can touch them.
   Take a bite and sip tea while journaling your thoughts, dreams, or shadow work.
