The lunar schedule is very important in magic casting. The phases of the moon directly correlate with the Universe's willingness to bend on specific requests. For examples of what works best with specific lunar schedule nights, check below.
The new moon can positively affect new beginnings, fresh starts, optimism, hope and faith. Wishing spells, spells to start a new job and relationship magic may be performed for optimal results during the new moon.
The waxing moon helps with accomplishments, creativity, strength, growth and learning and positive transformation. Magic to increase painting ability, spells to do well during a recital or in a theater play as well as spells to get into a new school or accepted into a specific college are best performed during the waxing moon.
The full moon relates to abundance, harvest, wish-fulfillment, manifesting desires, sexuality, achieving all dreams and protection. Binding spells, magic for farmers, wishing spells and magic for a better sex-life are all good examples of what types of spells work best during a full moon.
A waning moon works for letting go, clearing away, cleansing, releasing, shedding old patterns, undoing bindings and making space. If you have some old habits that are hard to let go of, like smoking, a waning moon might be the time to let it go. Come the new moon you may be completely smoke free. If you are making room for a child in your life it may be good to perform magic to welcome the baby on a waning moon, as it signifies you, as a parent, are willing to shed your old life in order to make room and provide for the child, both physically and emotionally.
When there is no moon magic works best for spells dealing with rest, peace, deep wisdom, divination and letting things die away completely. If you wish to dissolve a relationship that has troubled you, such as not being able to let go of an ex, or an ex not being able to let go of you, try casting the spell to let go on a night with no moon. This can give you a sense of calm and ease any regrets you or your ex may have had. Learning and practicing tarot on nights with no moon may prove particularly effective.
These are not requirements for spellcasting. Witchcraft is not an exact science where a phase of the moon is required or will even for sure make a difference. It is just one more notch in the belt that can help while you are working magic. If you are having a play during a waning moon and you want to cast a spell for it to do well, then by all means, do so. Even if the Universe isn't as open as It could be, It is still always open.
Come back to this page regularly to find out what phase is the moon in. This is a live graphic that updates every day to show the correct lunar schedule. I'll post this again every now and then if I think it's falling too far back on the blog and that people need to be refreshed about lunar magic.
