This week on Big Crystal Energy, I’m joined by author, tarot creator, professional witch, and all-around magical human Jen Sankey to talk about her newest book, Manifesting by the Moon: A Guide to Lunar Magic — which also happens to be our Quarter 2 Big Crystal Energy Book Club Pick. ✨🌙
In this conversation, we dive deep into working with the moon in a grounded, practical, and accessible way — without the overwhelm, perfectionism, or social media “witch aesthetic” pressure. Jen shares how lunar magic can become part of your real everyday life, even if you’re busy, traveling, parenting, exhausted, or just starting your spiritual journey.
We also talk tarot, intuition, shadow work, AI in the spiritual community, moon rituals for beginners, eclipse fear-mongering, manifestation myths, and why “doing the work” matters more than buying expensive tools.
This episode feels like sitting down with a wise witchy friend who reminds you that magic doesn’t have to be elaborate to be meaningful.
In this episode we discuss:
- Jen’s journey into tarot and witchcraft
- Growing up discovering tarot decks at Spencer’s
- Why books and trusted sources matter more than ever
- AI-generated spiritual content and counterfeit tarot decks
- The truth about manifestation and taking action
- How to begin working with moon phases
- Practical moon magic for busy people and parents
- Travel altars, moon water, and simple lunar rituals
- Shadow work and paying attention to your body’s signals
- Eclipse energy, fear-mongering, and spiritual gatekeeping
- Why rest and the dark moon are just as important as action
- Jen’s upcoming tarot decks, events, and projects
