Wiccan festivals, also known as Sabbats, are important occasions for followers of the Wiccan religion to celebrate and honor the cycles of nature. In 2023, there are eight major Wiccan festivals that will be observed. The first festival of the year is Imbolc, which falls on February 2nd. Imbolc marks the beginning of spring and is a time to celebrate new beginnings and the return of the sun. It is associated with Brigid, the goddess of hearth and home. Next is Ostara, celebrated on March 20th, which corresponds with the spring equinox.

The First Ever Clean Fragrance of the Month Club: Skylar Magic Bloom
I’m always trying new beauty products on the market and clean fragrance has been on my radar since trying and loving Phlur! So when I heard that Skylar, a clean fragrance brand I’d been wanting to try for a while, was releasing the first ever clean fragrance of the month club, I knew I wanted to give it a whirl. These perfumes are always in my Facebook ads and quite a few times I’ve clicked over with interest. They finally got me as a customer with the promise of a new limited-edition scent every month (with free shipping) for $20. This month’s fragrance was Magic Bloom.
Described as bright, juicy, and tart, clean ingredient list, I find this really reasonable. The limited-edition scent comes in a travel-sized rollie (10mL/0.33 fl oz) each month. It’s cruelty-free, natural, hypoallergenic, and completely customizable. I can skip a month, add a new favorite to try, and receive 10% off all Skylar products as a member.
This brand is new to me, but has so many options for every mood within their regular line, aside from their limited-edition scent of the month.
Isle – Clean, dewy, and fresh
Meadow – Floral, elegant, and beautiful
Arrow – Spicy, warm, and seductive
Coral – Fruity, floral, and flirty
Capri – Zesty, sparkling, and sweet
Willow – Woodsy, lush, and cool
