The purple witch Halloween costume is a popular choice for both children and adults during the spooky holiday season. The combination of the color purple and the iconic witch character creates a unique and eye-catching ensemble that is sure to stand out at any Halloween party or event. The purple witch costume typically consists of a long, flowy purple dress or robe. This vibrant color adds a modern twist to the traditional black attire commonly associated with witches. It brings an element of fun and playfulness to the costume, making it a favorite among those looking to make a statement. To complete the purple witch look, accessories such as a pointed hat and a broomstick are often included.
If you’re quite sensitive to the moon, you’ll definitely feel an energetic shift around this time and might experience some heightened emotions. Full moon hangovers are real. When the moon is at its peak, focus on spending time in reflection. Think back and note all of your wins and hype yourself up. We rarely celebrate ourselves, so have some fun and do whatever it is that feels good to you, so you can express how you’re feeling. This could be having an essential oil-infused ritual bath, a solo dance party, a good old cry or writing a list of gratitude. As it might be an emotional time for you, consider what you’re being called to let go of or any areas in need of some forgiveness. If you have any spiritual tools like crystals, you can cleanse and charge them up under the full moon, by placing them on a windowsill or somewhere safe in a garden.
In Ayurvedic teachings, spirituality, witchcraft and nature-based practices, using the elements of earth, air, water, fire and spirit are a way to reconnect to nature and optimise our wellbeing. Besides creating a calming and relaxing atmosphere, lighting candles during the new moon can act as a symbol to burn away negative energy during this powerful time of cleansing and renewal.
To complete the purple witch look, accessories such as a pointed hat and a broomstick are often included. The hat is typically purple to match the rest of the outfit and features the classic pointed design. The broomstick can also be purple or have purple accents, tying the whole costume together.
So, what do you even do in a Moon Ritual?
You might be seeing a bunch of posts every fortnight with #moonritual written underneath, overhearing conversations along the lines of, “Yeah, I’m sure I feel like this because it’s a full moon”, or hearing the moon mentioned every so often in yoga classes and magazine features.
Well, what’s the big deal about the moon anyway? Working with the phases of the moon can actually be a great way to explore yourself, your emotions and how you move through the world around you. If you’re interested in spirituality or personal development the moon can provide a timed framework for your practices and help you track your growth and intentions.
What you need to know
You can do a moon ritual at any phase in the moon’s 29.5 day cycle, but many people tend to focus their ritual energy on the juicy new moon and full moon. You can download a calendar app like this one, to check in to see what phase and sign the moon is in. The moon moves into a different zodiac sign roughly every 2.5 days, for example you might see that the moon is in Aquarius on one Wednesday and on the Friday it will be in Pisces.
The signs give the moon a bit of a vibe or energy that we can all connect to and they work as amazing topics to focus on and explore in our rituals. So, if the new moon is in Leo then we might want to look at how we express ourselves and our creative energy. Whereas if there was a full moon in Virgo, we’d focus on the routines and structures we have in our lives and how we can release the feelings of thinking that we’re not good enough.
The actual rituals
For both your new moon and full moon rituals or anytime you need to create a safe, sacred and serene space for yourself, here’s two ways that you can get started and add some magic to your self-care practice:
-
In Ayurvedic teachings, spirituality, witchcraft and nature-based practices, using the elements of earth, air, water, fire and spirit are a way to reconnect to nature and optimise our wellbeing. Incorporating these elements into your rituals can offer great structure. So, think about the intention you’re setting for this ritual, or use the zodiac sign of the moon that you’re in to guide what items you’ll use to represent the different elements. For earth, you can use crystals or a bowl of soil, water can be your favourite beverage or a jug of water, fire can be a scented candle and air can be doing some smoke cleansing with dried herbs to cleanse your space. Place all of these items around you before heading into your new moon or full moon ritual. Spirit is yourself, so always begin and end your rituals by connecting to yourself or the universe.
New Moon
This is a time for bringing in new beginnings and fresh cycles. When the moon isn’t visible in the sky yet, now’s the time to get super still so you can listen in to your intuition. Check in with yourself to get clarity on where you’re at in your life right now and what you’re trying to grow, nourish and cultivate. Get your space set up, then spend time in meditation or doing some breathwork, before writing some intentions in your journal. Use the energy of the zodiac sign that the new moon is in to guide you. Write your intentions in the present tense, as if you’re already experiencing them and they can be any goals or desires that you’re focusing on at the moment. It could be around your self-care practices, relationships with others, career, travel or self-growth.
Full Moon
If you’re quite sensitive to the moon, you’ll definitely feel an energetic shift around this time and might experience some heightened emotions. Full moon hangovers are real. When the moon is at its peak, focus on spending time in reflection. Think back and note all of your wins and hype yourself up. We rarely celebrate ourselves, so have some fun and do whatever it is that feels good to you, so you can express how you’re feeling. This could be having an essential oil-infused ritual bath, a solo dance party, a good old cry or writing a list of gratitude. As it might be an emotional time for you, consider what you’re being called to let go of or any areas in need of some forgiveness.

Reviews for "Embrace the Dark Arts with a Stunning Purple Witch Halloween Costume"
1. Sarah - 1/5 - The Purple Witch Halloween Costume was a complete disappointment. The material was cheap and poorly made, and the sizing was way off. The dress was too short and tight in all the wrong places, and the hat was flimsy and didn't stay on my head. The whole costume just looked tacky and unappealing. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a decent Halloween costume.
2. Mike - 2/5 - I was really excited to wear the Purple Witch Halloween Costume to a Halloween party, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The color of the dress was faded and not as vibrant as it appeared in the picture. The stitching and seams were also poorly done, making the costume look cheap and unfinished. The fit was also an issue, as the dress was too tight in some areas and loose in others. Overall, I was not satisfied with the quality and would not purchase this costume again.
3. Emily - 2/5 - The Purple Witch Halloween Costume looked really cute in the pictures, but when I received it, I was disappointed. The fabric was thin and felt cheap, and the dress had a strange chemical smell to it. The sizing was also way off, as the dress was too long and loose on me, even though I ordered the correct size according to the measurements provided. I ended up having to spend extra money on alterations just to make it somewhat wearable. I would not recommend this costume to anyone seeking a well-made and comfortable Halloween outfit.
4. David - 1/5 - I regret purchasing the Purple Witch Halloween Costume. The material was itchy and uncomfortable to wear. The dress was too big and shapeless, even after trying to adjust it with the included tie at the waist. The hat was flimsy and didn't stay in place, constantly falling off. The overall appearance of the costume was underwhelming and did not match the advertised picture. I would not recommend this costume to anyone hoping for a fun and stylish Halloween look.
