Halloween is a holiday that is known for its spooky and festive decorations. One popular decoration theme is witches, and an especially eye-catching decoration is a witch crashing into a tree. This particular decoration adds an element of whimsy and humor to the Halloween festivities. The main idea behind this decoration is to create a visual representation of a witch who has had a bit of a mishap while flying on her broomstick. The image typically features a witch figurine with a broomstick, dressed in a traditional black witch's hat and cape. The witch is positioned in a way that gives the illusion of her crashing into a tree trunk, with her broomstick and hat askew.
The Dark Moon is a time when you are learning to live in the present and not focus on the future. The more attention you pay to the here and now, the better your mind will feel. Although the name might sound spooky, the Dark Moon is a positive time when you can connect with your inner being and acknowledge your aspiration. There is no adverse effect of the Dark Moon—except that it can make you feel more tired than usual. That's the Moon asking you to take care of yourself!
In my new book, The Hedgewitch s Little Book of Lunar Magic , I discuss all manner of moon magic, including working with the colros and phases of the moon.

The witch is positioned in a way that gives the illusion of her crashing into a tree trunk, with her broomstick and hat askew. The tree itself is also a vital part of this decoration. It is usually made to look like a spooky and gnarled old tree, complete with twisted branches and a twisted trunk.
Dark Moon Scrying Spell
Readers, please enjoy this guest blog post by Tudorbeth, author of The Hedgewitch’s Little Library, including the latest release in the series, The Hedgewitch’s Little Book of Lunar Magic.
In my new book, The Hedgewitch’s Little Book of Lunar Magic, I discuss all manner of moon magic, including working with the colros and phases of the moon. One of the phases I love to complete magic in is the dark moon, the time when the moon cannot be seen. This is an ideal time to perform scrying and divination. These practices require us to open our minds and especially our third eye to see through the darkness. One of the things you are going to need for this spell is a phone, laptop, TV, or anything that has a black, reflective screen.
Scrying Spell
Scrying is a form of seeing the future or a specific time and place, and is best performed during the time of the dark moon. Traditionally, shiny or mirrored objects were used, such as black obsidian bowls that can be filled with water or mirrors themselves. In ancient times, scryers used highly polished pieces of copper.
Another way people could scry was via the crystal bowl, which is still in use today. Scryers also used a flickering candle reflected in a bowl of water, which was a favorite of Nostradamus, one of the most famous scryers in history.
However, you could use a more cost-effective method. Try your hand at scrying during the dark moon by using your phone, which has a shiny black surface and in which you can see things.
On the night of the dark moon, hold the phone in your right hand and place your left hand over it so the phone is covered. Then say:
Dark Moon, I ask for your help.
Show me what only I can see,
In my phone’s black screen.
Scrying bowls of the past,
Technology grows so fast.
I’m able to talk, see, and hear,
All that has gone before.
Past, present, and future see,
Grant me the sight of prophecy.
Remove your hand and look into the phone. Do not switch it on; you just need to look at the black screen. Focus your eyes on the images behind you as they begin to form. Although they will be behind your reflection in the phone, they are not of the past. Take note of the things you see, as they may be warnings. The black shiny screens of our phones are also great to use when you go ghost hunting or when you feel a presence. Always look into the reflection over your right shoulder.
Always enjoy the power of the moon (not just the dark moon), for our Lady is a free magical resource that can be used by everyone.

Since the Dark Moon is a time for stillness and reflection, it’s vitally essential to slow down and pause. Now is a fantastic time for introspective thoughts and intention setting, but it’s tough to listen to your inner voice when you’re constantly distracted or interrupted.
This adds to the overall Halloween aesthetic and helps to create a more immersive and realistic scene. This decoration is often displayed outdoors, either in the front yard or on the porch. It can be placed on the ground or hung from a tree branch, depending on the design and materials used. Some variations even come with built-in lights or sound effects to make the crashing effect more dramatic and attention-grabbing. Overall, a Halloween decoration featuring a witch crashing into a tree is a fun and creative way to add some excitement and humor to the holiday. This decoration can be a great conversation starter and is sure to delight both kids and adults alike..
Reviews for "Halloween Nightmares: Witch Crashing into Tree Decoration"
1. Jane - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Halloween decoration of the witch crashing into a tree. The quality was subpar, and the whole thing looked really cheap. The witch's face was poorly painted, and the tree looked more like a stick with some fake leaves glued onto it. Additionally, the motion sensor didn't work properly, so it didn't even look like the witch was crashing into the tree. I ended up returning this decoration because it simply didn't live up to my expectations.
2. Mark - 1 star - I do not recommend purchasing the Halloween decoration of the witch crashing into a tree. The construction was very flimsy, and it collapsed after only a few days of being outside. The materials used were of low quality, and it seemed like the manufacturers were cutting corners to save on costs. The tangled wires were a safety hazard, and the adhesive used to attach the witch to the tree quickly gave out. Save your money and invest in a better quality decoration.
3. Sarah - 3 stars - The Halloween decoration of the witch crashing into a tree was just okay. It didn't stand out among other decorations in the neighborhood, and the design felt generic. The sound effects were also quite loud and annoying, and there was no way to adjust the volume. The motion sensor worked well, but overall, I expected more from this decoration. It felt like a missed opportunity to create something unique and memorable for Halloween.
