Moon Phases are important to every spell or ritual. Here’s the need-to-know
The Dark Moon/New Moon - The moon where the it isn’t present makes for a good time to do revenge and retribution spells. On the flip side its the best time to cast love spells or attraction. New Moons are for new beginnings, a start of a cycle, times to step new goals or clean up around you spiritual space and charge black salt
Waxing Crescent Moon - Best for money and career advance Spells. Waxing is the first bit of the moon that shines in the sky, the first quarter or the first phase before it becomes a Full Moon
First Quarter - A week after the New Moon, now is the best time to cast any lucky spells or even love spells (especially if it lands on a Venus’s day, Friday)
Waxing Gibbous Moon - this phase starts 10 days after the New Moon
Full Moon - The spells to close out and end a cycle while also being the best time to charge crystals. It’s also when one can put out a jar of water to create ‘moon water’ or place your manifestations out under its light (or placed under the jar of water). The Full Moon has a lot happening for it so now is the time to manifest your dreams
Waning Gibbous Moon - Waning is the phase that happens after the Full Moon, since the Full Moon is about closing out cycles, now would be a good time to do spells to get rid of negative energies, cleanses or even the time to rid of any curses
Last Quarter Moon - happens a week after a Full Moon
Waning Crescent Moon - The final phase before the New Moon, since its about new beginnings, now would be a good time to focus of all things around self improvement, freshen up the black salt and focus on what lies ahead
Lunar & Solar Eclipses
When if comes to eclipses, there’s always two sides of the spectrum of what to do and what not to do during this time. If you look anywhere on TikTok, Instagram or whichever platform, you will find dozens of witches and spiritual influencers warning against doing any spells or manifestations at the time of an eclipse. Some others will say the opposite, encouraging you to use this wild energy for certain types of manifestations or spells that will be amplified.
Eclipse seasons are about letting things happen the way they should happen, if something leaves you life, it’s meant to leave. Anything can happen around this time, so if you had intended on doing a love or money spell, just be mindful the energy that goes out might be wild where there’s negative repercussions or very positive ones. Choose wisely because this is where planets and houses and your horoscope chart can come in handy to lead the way.
