Introduction to Moon Magick Class Summary
Recently I attended a class at my local Metaphysical Shop, The IIISuns. It was all about the Moon, It’s phases, And how to incorporate them into your craft.
The Instructor, “The LoonWitch” started of the class with telling us why the moon was so important. As we all know, The Moon controls the tides of the ocean, Right? Well the moon also has an impact on our body’s because we are also water. Like the tides, The moon pushes and pulls us. It can drastically effect our magic.
She also emphasized that we should make the moon personal to us. It doesn’t have to be a feminine energy by default. It can be masculine, Or genderless.
Depending on which Phase of the Moon we are in, It “sheds light” or can “illuminate different things” or energys.
[NOTE: Waxing means Expanding, or growing in illumination, And Waning would be decreasing in illumination)
1. New Moon: The New moon calls for a time of beginning, fresh starts, optimism, hope and faith. It is when you would want to organize, And prepare your spells.
2. Waxing Crescent: Manifestation, Building, accomplishments, creativity, strength, growth and learning, positive transformation. As the Moon begins to illuminate, so does your spell.
3. First Quarter: The time of light, and dark. Balance. Decision making, and inviting new positive energy.
4. Waxing Gibbous. It’s about perfection. Getting things done, making room for positivity and attraction.
5. Full Moon: This is when the moon is most powerful, It is fully illuminated. It’s a time of completion, Abundance, harvest, and wish-fulfillment.
6. Waning Gibbous: is about reassessment, Letting go, clearing away, cleansing, releasing, undoing bindings, opening up, Making amends, and making space.
7. Last Quarter: Banishment. As light leaves the moon it is also banishing, and letting go of bad habits, and negativity.
8. Waning Crescent: Also called the “Justice” moon. It is about achievement, Rest, Peace, deep wisdom, and completion.
