The Moon
 
 
The Moon is the most important heavenly body to witches. We draw on her
power for lunar magic. We cast our spells in accord with her cycles. She
inspires and illuminates us. There are moon gods, but the Moon has
always been perceived as female. The Moon is cyclical, like women. We
menstruate with her. She mirrors the stages of our lives: "Maiden",
"Mother" and "Crone". She is Changing Woman, as are we.

As the Wheel of the Moon continues on its never ending course, the moon
also travels through the different astrological signs, just as the sun
does, only more rapidly. When the moon resides within the various signs,
that sign influences the magickal aspect of the moon.
