The Moon
       The moon affects us as people in many ways.  In astology, the moon affects many things.  For magick, astrology and the moon indicate some things to us also.  The moon moves though astrological signs and for the magical practioner this is important.  Each sign has it's own properties which will affect the energy of the moon.  These energies are just as important as if the moon is waxing, full, waning, or dark.
