The Importance of the Moon

When you perform a ritual, pay attention to the phases of the moon!

When the Moon is full, everything you want to obtain will get less or diminish from that day on, just like the Moon herself.

For instance if you want to help someone lose weight, it is better to start on Full Moon, so that both your object-of-magic (the person) and the Moon will get thinner.

If the Moon is new (dark Moon), everything you want to obtain will grow or get more, just like the Moon herself.

Dark Moon is a name for three days; the day before New Moon, New Moon itself and the day after it.

If for instance you want someone to gain confidence, you better start at new Moon. Both the confidence and the Moon will grow.

It is a very strong period to perform magic, just as is the Full Moon.

So New Moon is good for:

Growing plants, starting lessons, getting stronger (recovering), opening up a new business, engaging in a marriage, a new love or even giving birth. In short everything that has to bloom.  Or to learn a lesson, for your knowledge will also increase.

Full Moon is good for:

People who want to stop smoking, to start a diet, to chase mice or insects away,  (there will be less and less of them).

When you want to leave home, country or state (the grief of leaving will soon get less).  It is also good, when you want to cure a disease or a rash. Or if you want to take some hurt away.

Half Moon is a bad day, for on a half Moon, things will go half bad and half good.

The mood swings will be stronger and you will feel it four times that day that your mood goes up very high, one moment and topples to very low the next moment.

I usually experience the mood swings first and then realise it is a half Moon day.

On quarter Moons, the effectiveness of rituals is but a quarter of its force.

And there's another thing about Full Moon...

When you want to help undo a spell that was cast upon someone, you must also use the Full Moon, for you are taking away the strength of that other spell. In other words; You diminish the force of the old spell.

You can use the help of talismans, amulets or sigils. For instance if someone has trouble sleeping, you can print or draw, a sigil of the Moon on a piece of paper which then will be put up over one's bed.  This will enforce your magic, but it has to be refreshed every fortnight.

I'll teach you more on the next occasion.  For tonight: sleep tight!
