Moon Phases

The New Moon is a time for new beginnings. The best magickal usages for this lunar stage are starting anew (spells involving; birth, virginity, wishes, and new ideas). New moons that are on Saturday or Sunday are said to be bad luck. Also pointing at a new moon with your finger triggers bad luck. The Waxing Moon helps increase and attract (spells involving; birth, strength, wealth, protection, friendship, travel, good change, health, good luck, and weather). This stage is what the maiden symbol of the Triple Goddess represents.The Full Moon is the best time to do all magicks because the energies are at their highest. Psychic powers are stronger when the moon is full. The full moon empowers, transforms, and fulfills (spells involving; fertility, happiness, divination, creativity, intuition, spirit conjuring, wishes, love, sex, dream, and basically all magick). Full moon also causes weird things to happen like excessive anger or weird situations. The full moon is the mother symbol of the Triple Goddess. A Waning Moon is best for decreasing, banishing, and bringing things to an end (spells involving; reversal, healing, death, wisdom, maturity, counter-magick, weight loss, over coming, and breaking bad habits). This moon is also good for exorcisms and breaking curses. This is the crone symbol of the Triple Goddess. The Dark Moon is the three and a half day period just before the New Moon, where it isn't visible. Witches who use moon phases don't use this phase until it passes. Spells casted during this time are prone to failing or get bad/wrong results. It is a time for rest, meditation, and vision questing. A Blue Moon is the second Full Moon in one calendar month. It is called a blue moon because volcanic ash once cause the moon to appear as so. Blue moons are rare and occur once every 32-33 months on average. Double blue moons occur once every 19 solar years. This is a time for amazing magick and energy. It is more powerful than the full moon. It is said that spells cast on this night will last till the next blue moon.
