Spell Crafting and The MoonWhen working moon phase rituals and spells, it should be noted that the cyclical pattern exists and ritual workings can easily follow this pattern for maximum effect. For example, lets say that you decide you need to increase your personal happiness. Using the Phasic technique, you would begin your Spells or Rituals for happiness on the first day of the Waning Moon.During the days of the Waning Moon, try to remove any negative influences that may be harming your happiness, work on purifying yourself, and break habits that may make you unhappy ( work as many rituals during this time as you feel that you might need to "clease or clear" yourself ). During the Dark of the Moon, you should rest, collect your thoughts, and allow your purification to take effect. On the New Moon, work your first ritual or spell to bring happiness or peace to your life. During the Waxing Moon preform positive rituals that will bring about an increase, strength, and a foundation to your happiness (work as many rituals as you desire). On the Full Moon, work a Grand Ritual to bring about happiness/peace. On the following Waning Moon, you could start over again, take a break, or work on a different area in your life. It is worth little or noting at this time, it is always best to look forward to the NEXT Full Moon and find out the powers of that full moon. When this is done, you should try to work your Phasic Rituals leading up to the Full Moon on an area in your life that coorelates to the power of the up-comming Full Moon. SpellCrafting During The Waning Moon This is a good time to "clean your house". Spells for removing negative emotions and obstacles, diseases, bad habits, and outmoded ways of thinking are done at this time. Also, purification, exorcism, removing unwanted influences in your life, and spells for unrequitted love are successful under the influences of the waning moon... The Dark of the Moon The dark of the Moon is three days before the New Moon. No magick is generally performed during this period of time. The moon is not visible in the sky. This is a time of rest and recuperation, of meditation, and of vision questing. Take this time to plan rituals and decide what you may want to accomplish with them. SpellCrafting During The New Moon On the full moon is the perfect time to "start" something. For the best results ... start the changes that you will be doing during the Waxing Moon. For example, if you wanted to work on personal growth issues during the waxing moon, start (or work your first ritual) on the New Moon. SpellCrafting During The Waxing Moon This is the time to do all magick of a positive nature, such as healing (as in bringing health), personal growth issues, love, wealth, new projects, business success, new friends, and so on.
