How to Use the Phases of the Moon in Witchcraft
Learn how the Moon affects you and your magick.
Using the Moon for witchcraft can be a lot of fun, but there is more than just the Full Moon to work with. There are three other major phases with their own compelling ritual correspondences: the New Moon, the First Quarter Moon, and the Last Quarter Moon.
But don’t just see the Moon as a static series of lunar images in the night, but rather a glorious celestial body in the sky that affects your life from phase to phase. It grows and decreases in size as if the Moon itself were alive — because it’s a deity the world over and most frequently considered a goddess.
If you work these four lunar phases into your ritual life you’ll see an improvement in your spiritual habits. Keep their correspondences in mind as you plan your calendar and you’ll have an organized and powerful witchcraft practice.
