MOON PHASES FOR MAGICK

The Moon is the astronomical body closest to us and, therefore, she has a profound influence upon us. The highest energy occurs at the Full Moon and, therefore, this is the most powerful time for magical workings. The New Moon is the next most powerful time for Magic.

Waxing—the moon is “growing” in size.
Waning—the moon is “shrinking” in size.



NEW/DARK MOON

Both names are often interchangeable when you're talking about the moon at totality. However, while there is still a waning crescent, it is more appropriate to call it the Dark Moon, and when there's a waxing crescent, it is the New Moon.
NEW/DARK MOON MAGICK
New Moon workings can be done from the day of the new moon to three-and-a-half days after. The new moon is for growth: starting new ventures, new beginnings. Also: love and romance, health or job hunting.

WAXING MOON MAGICK
From seven to fourteen days after the new moon. The waxing moon is for constructive magick, such as love, wealth, success, courage, friendship, luck or health.

FULL MOON MAGICK
From fourteen to seventeen-and-a-half days after the new moon. Prime time for rituals for prophecy, protection, divination. Any working that needs extra power, such as help finding a new job or healing for serious conditions, can be done now. Also, love, knowledge, legal undertakings, money and dreams.

WANING MOON MAGICK
From three-and-a-half to ten-and-a-half days after the full moon.The waning moon is used for banishing magick, for ridding oneself of addictions, illness or negativity.

DARK MOON MAGICK
From ten-and-a-half to fourteen days after the full moon. The dark moon is a time for ridding oneself of bad habits, Binding spells, for exploring our darkest recesses and understanding our angers and passions. Also, bringing justice to bear.
