OceanofPDF.com
T he Moon has been described for centuries in literature and
mythology as an emblem of mystery, magic and stillness, but it is
above all considered the universal symbol of femininity, mainly
because of its cycle, recognized by different cultures as analogous to the
menstrual one.
In fact, there are few European pantheons that imagine the lunar deities as
male figures; among these are the ancient Norse religion in which the
lunar chariot is pulled by Mani, brother of the sun goddess, and Irish
mythology, which in ancient times worshiped King Elatha as the god of
the moon. But the divinity most frequently associated with the Moon is
the Greek Artemis, goddess of hunting and purity, also revered by the
Romans with the name of Diana, connected to the crescent moon.
Other lunar entities were Hecate, queen of the dead, of magic and
necromancy, incarnation of the waning moon, and Selene, the titan believed
to be the personification of the earth's satellite in its entirety.
Also, in the neo-pagan religions and in the Wicca movement the importance
of the moon phases recurs, enclosed in the symbol of the Triple Goddess,
which represents the three stages of a woman's life, while the Etruscans
revered Artume, goddess of the moon, night and fertility.
Furthermore, according to astrology, the Moon rules Cancer, a sign
associated with the woman, the mother and the sense of stability, just as in
the tarot the moon corresponds to the eighteenth major arcanum, or the
archetype of the Great Mother.
It is evident that the symbolism of the Moon we are used to is closely linked
to femininity, but at the same time it embodies a vision of the woman that
depends on biological sex and the role of mother and protector of the house.
THE MOON PHASE AFFECTS MANY
ASPECTS OF OUR LIFE.
MAGIC IS NO EXCEPTION.
MOST WITCHES USE THE STANDARD
PHASES
(FULL, NEW, RISING, WANING, BLACK)
The strength of the moon gives greater power to magical spells. In this
book we will see which spells to do to make our WISHES COME
TRUE and when to do them, according to the phases of the moon
to give them greater effectiveness.
Good Magic!

CHAPTER 1: The Phases of The
Moon and Moon Magic
M oon magic or lunar magic is certainly among the oldest forms of
witchcraft that man can remember. The silver orb, in fact, has
always influenced the inhabitants of the Earth with its faces:
the phases of the moon. The pale Moon fascinated primitive man as
much as the modern witch, discovering incredible influences not only on
the human being but also on nature itself: from the phenomenon of the tides
to the ancient legends related to werewolves. Even today, the Moon
influences many fields of everyday life, from the phases of the moon for the
harvest to the phases of the moon for bottling wine, up to the phases of the
moon for cutting hair! The Moon is a magical ally that, with its round face
or sickle smile, illuminates our path even when it is not seen. Moon and
magic are deeply connected and we will explore lunar magic and its
immense power together!
The magic of the Moon, today as yesterday, is the absolute epicenter of
witchcraft and Wicca, traditions that exploit the magical power of the Moon
to cast white magic spells and enter into communion with the lunar
goddesses such as Hecate, Artemis, Diana, and Selene.
What are the moon phases in magic?
The Moon does not show itself in the same way for too long,
which is why the lunar cycle - that is, the phases of the moon - attracted the
attention of our ancestors who, fascinated by the many faces of the Earth's
satellite, have long studied the movement of the Earth to draw up a real
lunar calendar.
The phases of the moon describe the cyclic motion of the Moon
which, based on its positioning, always shows a different face towards the
Earth. Each phase of the moon has a different impact on the environment
and magic and influences its progress. Witches, who have always been
considered daughters of the Moon, are able to use the magical properties of
the various phases of the moon to increase the power of their spells and
channel its silver energy during rituals.
Moon phase duration
The phases of the moon have a cyclical duration defined as the "synodic
month", a time interval of about 29 days. Today's calendar, the Gregorian
one, which we still use today to mark the days and months, derives from the
previous lunar calendar.
What are the phases of the moon?
Each phase of the moon in magic represents a propitious moment
for a specific type of spell. The phases of the moon, in fact, not only
influence the nature that surrounds us, but can be very useful during the
magical ceremonies of witches. Unlike what the collective imagination may
think, lunar magic is not exclusively linked to the so-called Esbat - the rites
connected to the full Moon - but concerns every aspect of the diaphanous
mother. Let's see together what are the phases of the moon and how the
magic of the Moon can be channeled into witchcraft and Wicca spells.
NEW MOON
The New Moon, also known as the Black Moon, is the moon phase that
sees the silver star facing the Earth in its dark, unlit and invisible side. The
spells and rituals that we can do in this moon phase are those related to
renewal and rebirth.
CRESCENT MOON
Among the lunar phases, that of the Crescent Moon is particularly suitable
for spells and magic related to growth, prosperity and protection but also
rituals of love, approach and attraction.
FULL MOON
The Full Moon is, among the lunar phases, the most fascinating of all: the
complete lunar disk is a breathtaking spectacle that, witches or not, man
will never stop appreciating. During this phase it is possible to carry out
spells or rituals to propitiate luck and protection. The Full Moon is an
extremely important moment in magic as it represents the absolute pinnacle
of lunar energy, therefore it will be possible to perform any type of magic.
WANING MOON
Among the phases of the moon, the last one we examine is the Waning
Moon. This phase is particularly suitable for all those rituals aimed at
detachment, banishment, the removal of negativity.
How to recognize the phases of the moon
How to recognize the phases of the moon by raising your eyes to the sky?
When the Moon is full, of course, you will see the perfect circle of the star
shining completely in the dark sky, while when the Moon is Black, it simply
will not be visible. To recognize the waxing and waning Moon, however,
just remember this little and useful trick: when the Moon is waxing, the
luminous part of the lunar disk is on the right, while when it is waning the
luminous part is on the left. You can't go wrong!
Planetary Magic: The Influences of Planets in Magic
If you think that only the Moon is the author of significant influences on
nature and on Man, you are very wrong! Not only do the phases of the
moon act in magic, but also the so-called planetary magic is of great
importance.
The magical hours or planetary hours, in fact, help witches and practitioners
of every tradition to perform their spells by taking advantage of planetary
magic - and in particular the magical hours - to obtain even more powerful
and precise results!
TO DETERMINE THE PRECISE MAGICAL
TIME OF DAY AND NIGHT, START FROM
THE FIRST HOUR AFTER SUNRISE (FOR
THE MAGICAL HOURS OF THE DAY) AND
THE FIRST HOUR AFTER SUNSET (FOR
THE MAGICAL HOURS OF THE NIGHT).
THE MAGICAL PLANETARY HOURS
HOURS OF THE MOON: The lunar hours are excellent for evoking the
spirits of the deceased and the rites concerning love and reconciliation (if
the Moon is Crescent) and for divination. Great time for sea trips too.
HOURS OF MARS: Excellent for rituals concerning destruction,
discord, anger. A particularly recommended time for ritual operations
relating to protection and exorcisms.
HOURS OF MERCURY: Excellent moments to structure operations
related to eloquence and the divinatory arts, rituals to increase business and
propitiate study.
JUPITER HOURS: Recommended hours for making transactions
related to money, luck, improve social status, health and spirituality.
HOURS OF VENUS: Venusian hours are particularly useful for spells
dedicated to love, lust, and pleasures in general.
HOURS OF SATURN: Hours particularly suitable for rituals aimed at
obtaining luck or disgrace in business and in general in everything related
to material goods.
HOURS OF THE SUN: The hours of the sun favor money, luck,
reconciliation, wealth and harmony.
MAGIC HOURS OF THE NIGHT. THE
PLANETARY OLYMPIC SPIRITS
A witch, when working magic through rituals and spells, will therefore take
into account the magical correspondences, the phases of the moon in all
their facets - explored today - but also the planetary hours to determine the
right moment to concretize one's own Want. Planetary magic, however,
offers us another very interesting starting point! In the treatise De Magia
Veterum, the grimoire known as Arbatel, each planet linked to our week is
associated with a specific entity that governs that day and the consequent
hours: we refer to the so-called Olympic spirits: Aratron, Bethor, Phaleg,
Och, Hagith, Ophiel, Phul.
EACH OF THESE 7 SPIRITS RULES A
PLANET AND IT IS IMPORTANT THAT
EACH WITCH KNOWS THEIR
CHARACTERISTICS.
Let's see what they are:
P hul is the spirit of the Moon, grants the power of transmutations, familiar
spirits, youth and reveals the secrets of medicine.
P haleg , spirit of Mars, rules over all matters of war and of a military
nature.
O phiel , spirit of Mercury, grants familiar spirits and knowledge, and
transmutes mercury into gold.
B ethor , spirit of Jupiter, has power over treasures, riches, medicine,
longevity.
H agith is the spirit of Venus and under her dominion is love, beauty,
transmutations, familiar spirits.
A ratron , the spirit of Saturn, can transmute everything into stone or
gold, grants familiar spirits and teaches alchemy and magic.
O ch is the spirit of the Sun, grants long life, wisdom, teaches the art of
transmutation as well as how to find gold in the depths of the earth.
Let's delve into planetary magic
A more in-depth study on planetary magical correspondences is absolutely
necessary and every keeper of magic will surely appreciate the great
usefulness of this information.

Learning to use the most correct of the moon phases, the most
suitable day and the most useful time, is the basis for a better success of the
spell or ritual that you will perform. The cosmos regulates and influences
our magic and the moon phases and planetary magic are witnesses of this:
treasure this ancient knowledge and always apply it in your personal
magical practice!
When planning a magical work of any kind, evaluating which
monthly phase the Moon is in is one of the very first things to do.
The energies of this planet have in fact numerous influences on the
natural cyclical dynamics, as demonstrated by the peasant wisdom of the
past, which set the calendar of work to be done on the lunar phases of each
month.
The same also happens in magic, where each phase of the Moon is
indicated for different areas of action.
So, let's find out how to intensify the power of our spells by preparing them
at the most propitious moment of the lunar cycle.
OceanofPDF.com
Crescent moon
Connected to the Air Element, it is the ideal time to
cast spells aimed at attracting the new. Its first
phase is indicated for starting new projects and
blessing new beginnings and new businesses (such
as blessing the home you have just moved into or
celebrating a wiccaning).
In its second phase, instead, we dedicate ourselves
to magical works that involve the growth and
increase of something.
OceanofPDF.com
Full moon
At this stage, the lunar energies are at the peak of
their strength. We are in the domain of Fire, the
lunar summer. It is the ideal moment for rituals
aimed at the crowning of a situation that already
exists and at the reaping of the fruits of some
project for which one has worked. In Full Moon,
magic is done for something to manifest itself.
OceanofPDF.com
Waning moon
This period, connected to water, is indicated for
carrying out all the rituals aimed at decreasing
something or removing it. Its first phase is an
excellent time to perform purifications of people
(including detox diets), environments and / or
objects.
In its second phase we can instead devote ourselves
to the techniques of personal transmutation through
meditations and journeys into the subtle realms. In
this last phase, eventual banning rites are also
carried out.
OceanofPDF.com
New Moon
This is the right time for all meditation and
recollection practices, as well as for protection
spells. It is also the best time to engage in divination
practices and the veneration of the spirits of
ancestors.
It is the time of the Earth, of rest and regeneration
that precedes the new; so if you want to do a monthly
fasting day this is the time to do it to get the most
benefit from it.

CHAPTER 2: HOW TO CREATE
YOUR OWN FULL MOON RITUAL
YOU DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO
IDENTIFY YOURSELF AS A PAGAN OR
PRACTICE OTHER EARTH-CENTERED
SPIRITUAL PATHS TO BENEFIT FROM THE
FULL MOON RITUAL.
There are numerous instructions for creating a full moon ritual.
But the main problem with using someone else's instructions is that they
don't have the same impact as the rituals you create yourself. While there is
nothing wrong with following a full moon ritual that another person has
detailed (especially if you lack ideas), I recommend that you try making
your own. So, compare the two and see which one works best. In other
words, don't take our word for it - try it yourself!
B ut first , let ' s get to the basics ...
In astrology, the full moon is an energy spike that highlights opposite
polarity and forces in your life. It is also a time of harvest (or reaping what
you have sown).
In paganism, the full moon is a time when one's psychic energy rises and
powerful intentions, spells and rituals can be practiced. The full moon also
represents the maternal aspect of the divine feminine.
When we study the symbolic meaning of the full moon, however, the
themes of amplification, subconscious power, and enlightenment
continually arise.
How to track the full moon?
If you are like most people, you will be struggling with the lunar cycles.
Occasionally you may look up to the sky but don't think much about the
phase of the moon and its meaning.
Thankfully, you don't have to be a keen, wide-eyed astronomer to follow
the position of the moon. In fact, the solution to the problem is provided by
this wonderful thing called the Internet.
There are many websites (especially those dealing with astrology and
paganism) that keep track of the current moon phase. You can purchase an
annual moon phase calendar from places like Amazon and hang it in your
home. There are also many cool phone apps that track moon phases like
Simple Moon Phase Calendar, My Moon Phase, Phases of the Moon, etc.
Keep in mind that if you live in the Southern Hemisphere, you will need to
find a calendar, website, or app that accurately records the moon phases
based on your country as most of the moon phase resources are created for
the Northern Hemisphere.
You don't need to go out and buy a load of metaphysical paraphernalia to
enact a powerful full moon ritual, nor do you need to make it Instagram
worthy.
Here are some tips that will help you create your own authentic
full moon ritual:
1. F ind out when the next full moon will be
Check your moon app, your calendar, or even the local weather website
(which usually lists what phase the moon is currently in). The full moon
occurs on average once every 29.5 days, so you'll experience it about once a
month.
2. T hink about what you would like to amplify or
illuminate within yourself
What are you struggling with at the moment? What shadows need to come
into the light? What archetypes would you like to embody? What do you
need to let go? What internal skills or resources do you want to activate?
Think about these questions or keep a journal about them.
3. S hape your intentions
Once you've completed the previous step (which shouldn't take too long),
it's time to set an intention or goal. What do you want to achieve? What will
be the purpose of your full moon ritual? Write your full moon intention in
your journal or on a piece of paper that you can keep in your sacred space /
altar.
4. P repare some symbolic items for the full moon ritual
Select some symbolic objects that could represent your problem, desire,
yourself, your current place in life, what you need to let go of, your
strengths, weaknesses, what has to be enlightened… Basically, choose any
object currently in your home that represents the part of you or your
situation that needs to be magnified or enlightened, literally everything that
represents exactly your problem, intent or goal.
5. C reate a sacred space
On the day / night of the full moon, dedicate a specific space to your
undisturbed ritual. You may already have an altar somewhere in your home,
and if so, that's perfect. If you don't have an altar or sacred space, you can
install a temporary one on a window sill, balcony, or even the corner of
your bedroom, kitchen, or bathroom. You can choose to "clean" this space
of energy debris by clapping your hands, using an incense stick, visualizing
a purified circle around you, or whatever else inspires you.
6. P erform the full moon ritual
With your symbolic items close at hand, arrange them in a way that feels
powerful to you. You could arrange them according to your wishes, for
example you could put together two symbolic objects that represent a
synergy. You can arrange your objects according to a symbol, such as a
circle that represents completeness or completion. You could burn one of
the objects or dip it into a bowl of water that represents letting go. Or place
an object on your body and symbolically "inhale" it. You could eat one of
the items (of course if it's edible and non-toxic) to symbolize power,
strength, and renewal. Infinity is the limit.
I RECOMMEND THAT YOU LISTEN TO
YOUR INSTINCTS AND DO WHAT YOU
THINK IS MOST MEANINGFUL TO YOU.
7. S ymbolically close your full moon ritual
Regardless of how you choose to design your full moon ritual, you must
always symbolically close / end it. Your unconscious mind must understand
that the ritual is over (think of closing your ritual as if you were pressing the
"send" button on your computer). Leaving the ritual open without
intentionally closing it sends confusing signals to your unconscious mind.
Closing your ritual is simple. Again, close it however you feel,
intuitively. Examples may include ringing a bell, saying a prayer of thanks,
displaying an "X", saying something like "so be it," and so on.
As you see, there are no concrete rules, just a basic structure that you may
want to follow if it suits you.
Ritual # 1 - Words of Power
What you will need:
A mantra or affirmation of your creation
A candle
A lighter
Access to the outside
Make a healing, enriching or empowering affirmation (eg, “I open my heart
a little more every day”, “I am brave, capable and strong”, “I love my body
the way it is”, etc.). On the night of a full moon, go out, bring a candle and
a lighter, and sit in a comfortable and safe place. Light the candle to begin
the ritual. Then repeat your powerful words out loud (or in your head) ten
times. Ten is the completion number. As you repeat your words of power,
look at the moon and let its luminescence amplify your words. When you're
done, blow out the candle.
Full Moon Ritual # 2 - Letting go of the candle flame
What you will need:
A pen
A piece of paper
Matches or a lighter
A fireproof container, a bowl, or cauldron
On the night of the full moon, write an aspect of yourself or your life that
you want to let go of, on a piece of paper. For example, you could write "I
let go of my shame", "I let go of my perfectionism", "I let go of friends who
do not support my highest good", "I let go of my past", "I let go of my self-
destructive tendencies" etc.
Prepare a fireproof bowl, container or cauldron and place it in your sacred
space. Open your full moon ritual by visualizing the moonlight around you.
When you're ready, start burning your piece of paper in the fireproof
container. See how the paper curls up to ashes. You could say in your mind
or aloud "I release this, so be it", or simply "Goodbye forever". When the
paper has turned completely to ash, go outside and scatter the ash to the
wind. Alternatively, you can bury the ash. When you're done, say "It's
done" out loud.
(Note: If you are burning paper indoors, be sure to use caution and
common sense).
Ritual # 3 - The Moon bath
What you will need:
An object that symbolizes you
An object that symbolizes your intention
A plate or tray
This full moon ritual is good if you want to empower yourself in some way.
What you will need are two basic objects: one that represents you
and one that represents your intention . For example, you
could choose a lock of hair from your hairbrush, a photo of yourself, a piece
of jewelry, or whatever represents you as the first item in some way.
For your second item, choose something that symbolizes your goal, desire,
or intention. For example, you could choose a certain gemstone (e.g. Rose
quartz for personal love, ground-rooted hematite, lapis lazuli for
authenticity), an image you found in a magazine, even some cutlery (like a
knife if you want to have a sharper mind). If you can't find a symbolic item
in the house, write your intentions on a piece of paper.
On a full moon night, place both of your items on a plate. Put the object that
represents you on the left and the object that represents your intention on
the right
Go outside and put your plate in a place where the moonlight touches the
earth. You can skip this part if you want and simply place your plate in a
part of the house where the moonlight enters through the window. As you
set the dish in the moonlight, "may the moon expand [enter your intention],
so be it". For example, you might say, "May the moon expand my ability to
love myself - so be it", "May the moon amplify my desire to see clearly,"
etc.
Full moon ritual # 4: Preparation of herbal teas
What you will need:
A symbolic herb (in the form of tea) of your choice that represents
your need, desire or goal
A cup
A spoon
Boiled water
In this full moon ritual, you will ingest your intention so that it symbolically
becomes a living part of you. This is a basic yet powerful ritual that can be
quite relaxing, fun, and discreet. If you don't have a lot of time and are
constantly surrounded by others, why not try this full moon ritual? All you
need to do is buy / harvest a herb that represents your need, desire or goal.
You can find many herbal matches online, but to save you time, here are a
few:
C hamomile ( to meet life calmly and sweetly )
H oly B asil ( for emotional resilience )
C alendula ( for passion and creativity )
D andelion ( to achieve your wishes and goals )
P eppermint ( to purify )
R osa ( for self - love and compassion )
L emongrass ( for optimism and open communication )
G inger ( to get in touch with your personal power )
G inkgo B iloba ( for supplementation )
J asmine ( for sensuality and sexual confidence )
T hrush ( for greater intuition and inner visualization skills )
I can't list all the herbs out there, but many of the above herbs can be found
in your supermarket or health food store.
When you've chosen your herb, find a quiet spot indoors on a full moon
night. Begin your ritual by boiling water in your kettle and consciously
pouring it into your cup. Leave the tea bag (or tea leaves) to steep for a few
minutes. While you wait, focus on your intention. When the tea is ready,
take the spoon and stir clockwise thinking about your intention. When you
are ready, drink your tea slowly. Feel your intention descending into the
depths of your body as it simultaneously descends into the depths of your
unconscious mind to take root. Once the tea is finished, the ritual is
complete.
Ritual # 5 - Art therapy
What you will need:
A pen or pencil
Watercolors, acrylics or colored pastels
A piece of paper
If you love artistic self-expression, you will love this full moon ritual.
Basically, you will need a space where you can draw or scribble. Place your
sheet of paper in front of you on the full moon day / night and write or draw
what you are struggling with or want to change. You don't need to make it
elaborate or perfect.
So, choose some colors that evoke the feelings in you that you would like to
have. For example, you may want to step into your personal sovereignty
and choose red and orange or you may want to find more inner peace and
choose blue and violet.
After writing / processing the problem, declare it aloud (or in your mind),
"May the full moon help release / transform this". Then, draw or paint over
the words / scenes in front of you with your intention. For example, you
may have originally depicted a scene of you curled up on the floor in a fetal
position that symbolizes sadness and setback.
At the top, you can choose to paint a picture of yourself smiling or standing
on top of a mountain feeling victorious. Make sure you completely cover
the words or images below. Once done, end the full moon ritual by placing
your image in the moonlight to symbolically release / transform / amplify
your intentions.

CHAPTER 3: MOON SPELLS OF
LOVE
THE MOON HAS A GREAT INFLUENCE ON
LOVE SPELLS BECAUSE IT IS ABLE TO
DISPLACE THE NECESSARY ENERGY
FROM OUR REQUEST AND REACH THE
UNIVERSE IN A MORE DIRECT WAY,
SINCE A LOVE SPELL IS BASED ON
CHANNELING OUR FORCES IN A WAY
THAT ARE CAPTURED BY THE COSMOS.
Therefore, each phase of the moon releases different vibrations that will
help us make the most and maximize our power. It is a magical time to
perform rituals! That said, it's time to explain the power of each of these
phases so you know which moon is best to cast love spells. We will learn to
distinguish and differentiate each phase of the moon and to know how to
use the energy associated with each of them.
Full moon
In this lunar phase our planet is located between the Sun and the Moon, that
is, if we look at the sky, we will see the disk of the full moon. It will reflect
the sunlight! This moment of enlightenment is ideal for requesting what we
most desire, but also for recharging ourselves with the energy of the Moon
itself. At this stage the feelings are more exposed, amplified and ideal for
performing love spells to improve relationships and attract people into our
lives. So, if we want to fascinate that person that we have in mind every
day, the full moon is the right time.
In this love spell we will use the power of rose quartz to channel the energy
that the full moon will produce. We will use that power to make that person
we crave inclined to want to be by our side. For this first spell you will need
to collect the following materials:
2 rose quartz crystals.
1 piece of red lace.
1 wooden bowl with mineral water.
1 small red candle.
Water.
Wooden bowl.
Wooden matches.
How to perform the love spell
1. The first step will be to take a wooden bowl and fill it with water, place it
near a window, on a ledge, which allows the light of the Moon to invest it
completely.
2. The next day, light the red candle with a match. Take a few minutes to
focus your desire and clarify it.
3. Join the two crystals with the red string. Each piece of rose quartz will
represent the parts of the couple.
4. Put them in the container and put everything under your bed at night.
5. Finally, take the stones with you and try to be close to the person (if this
is not possible then it will be good to focus your thoughts on that person
and imagine yourself together). At this point, the rose quartz will attract that
person with the power it will have stored in the moonlight.
Plus, as mentioned, it's a great time to improve our feelings. How? With the
following appeal to the full Moon for love.
Prayer to the full moon for love
Before starting the prayer, you will need two elements:
A silver ring.
A white cloth.
P rocedure :
1. Wrap the ring in a cloth and bury it overnight in a pot with a live plant.
As you take this step, focus on visualizing happy moments and repeat the
following phrase aloud: “Mother nature, you are light and justice, I make
you this little offering. Please bless this ring and let it shine with the moon,
accompany me on my journey. So be it.”
2. Wait until it's a full moon again and take the ring from where you buried
it. Wear it for at least a week.
The phase following that of the full moon is very easy to recognize. It is
characterized by increased darkness and the fact that it resembles the letter
"C" as seen from Earth. This is the stage where the moon darkens before the
new moon phase is completed. Do you know what period I'm talking about?
That's right, it’s the moon in the waning quarter.
WANING QUARTER
The waning crescent moon will help you get rid of negative vibes. As it is
waning, it will be easier for you to close circles or relationships and
situations that may have drained your energy. It's time to renew! Likewise,
you can take advantage of resolving conflicts. Learn to empty and detach
from negativity.
MAGIC SPELL
Take charge of the energy of the Moon to ask the universe to help you leave
behind some people who, although they were important in the past, you
want to get away from your life. Take note of the materials you will need to
obtain before starting the ritual!
1 small red candle.
1 small white candle.
Wooden matches.
1 photograph of the person you want to forget.
1 glass jar.
1 plate.
Water.
3 tablespoons of oil.
H ow to cast the waning quarter spell :
1. Start by filling the jar with water and placing it over the image of that
person you want to remove from your life. It is necessary that through the
water it is possible to see at least the blurred silhouette of that person.
2. Dilute three tablespoons of oil in the water.
3. Then, take the two candles and consecrate them by saying aloud: "I do
this ritual to forget the person who hurt me." Then place them as follows:
the white one to the left of the vase and the red one to the right.
4. Light them with wooden matches.
5. Now take the image of that person and burn one end of the photograph
with the white candle and the other with the red candle. As you take this
step, you will have to repeat: “I (say your name) burn your image
(pronounce the name of the person you want to remove from your life) and
decree: I want you away from my life and my mind. I leave my heart free of
this pain.”
6. Place the image on a plate to see how it is consumed by fire.
7. Finally, take the ashes of the image and the liquid from the jar and throw
everything in the sink or bathroom drain.
NEXT PHASE: THE NEW MOON!
New Moon
This period is ideal to reconsider, think about what we want, be reborn and
fill ourselves with pure and clean energy. In this way, with the new moon
we can start new projects. The spells on the new moon will cast light and
hope upon us. It will mean a good time to start over and ask for a new love;
therefore, the following ritual is intended to activate all our positive energy.
It is a new Moon when it is exactly between the Earth and the Sun, which
means that the illuminated hemisphere cannot be seen from our planet. In
other words, we can only see the side that is in total darkness.
SPELL WITH THE NEW MOON
Materials:
A glass with water.
1 green candle.
1 stick of incense or sage.
Wooden matches.
White sheet of paper.
1 black ballpoint pen.
7 coins.
H ow to cast the spell on a new moon :
1. You will begin the ritual by purifying the place where you will perform
it. How? With incense or with sage.
2. So think carefully about what you want to achieve with this new moon
ritual. Write your wish on the paper, fold it and place it under the candle. In
this case, the green candle symbolizes prosperity.
3. Light the candle with a match while thinking about your goal. In this
way, you will send your purpose out into the universe.
4. Fill a glass of water and place it behind the candle. Add a handful of salt
with your right hand and insert the seven coins. For each coin inserted, say
aloud: “I want peace and harmony”.
5. Then take your wish and burn it on the candle.
6. Allow the candle to burn out completely.
7. Empty the salt water and take the coins. Put them in a high place. On top
of a closet will suffice.
8. Finally, take the ashes and bury them.
P rayer to the new moon
If you prefer, you can use this prayer to launch your requests into the
universe. Do it with a lot of confidence!
“Oh, Moon Goddess, the new one, who creates and undoes the
shadows, I come to ask you for my wish. Mother Moon, you who
live at night and surround us with your silver rays, take away any
kind of evil, protect those we love, neutralize our enemies, give us
peace. The lady of silence and darkness shows me the way to avoid
tripping and illuminates the earth to walk on. Now that you are at the
peak of your power.”
And after talking about the full moon, the waning quarter and the new
moon, we have one of the phases that will allow us to recharge more
energy: the waxing quarter.
WAXING QUARTER
This cycle is characterized by the increase in the surface of the Moon which
can be seen from our planet. It is an ideal phase to perform all kinds of love
spells, as we use its light to give strength to our request. Therefore, in the
waxing quarter, rituals are performed to enhance the achievement of
positive results. This is the best time to take advantage of all its magic. In
addition, it promotes protection.
The spell we have selected for this cycle will serve to activate our hearts
and attract this wonderful feeling. You just have to find a relaxed place
where no one can bother you.
SPELL OF THE WAXING QUARTER
To do this we will need the following materials:
Some red paper.
Red paprika.
1 small wooden box.
1 black ballpoint pen.
H ow to perform the love spell :
1. We begin the love spell by writing on the red paper with our black
ballpoint what we want to achieve. It is essential to specify who we are
directing our spell towards. Take note of the situation and visualize well
what you want to happen to make it happen.
2. Then, fold the paper in half three times. As you take this step, recite the
following formula aloud: “I (your name) am here tonight, under your light,
to honor your presence, to purify my heart and reconnect with you in this
moment of new beginnings. Grant me the peace of your silence. Thank you
moon for your blessings. I promise to use your energy forever. I say it and I
will make it happen”.
3. Put the paper in the box and cover it with the red paprika.
4. Close the box and leave it in the moonlight overnight. Just leave it near a
window.
5. At the end of that night, place the box under the bed for the rest of the
week to increase effectiveness.
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THE ENERGY
THAT THE MOON OFFERS YOU!
Tune your energy with the elements you use, and most importantly, believe
it. Keep in mind, when performing a love spell, which moon phase is best
suited to your purpose, as the energies will affect your intent. Finally, don't
forget to have a receptive mind. Only in this way can we know that what we
ask for is fulfilled.
LOVE INCLUDES EVERYTHING
Love is essential in our life. That emotion invades us and unites all the
feelings we experience every day, allowing us to appreciate so much joy,
happiness, surprise, fear, anger ... Although all this can be difficult to
manage and sometimes it is easier to hide, to know what we feel in every
moment, will allow us to focus on generating only positive energies. How?
Putting aside all the negative and striving to attract only positive things.

CHAPTER 4: TIPS FOR SOME
MOON SPELLS
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE A SHOP
Fill a new basin with sea water and make the sign of the cross before filling
it. On the day of the new moon, at dawn, sprinkle the water in front of the
shop with a broom while reciting:
"SISTER ISIS, DAUGHTER OF THE WIND,
MOTHER OF TIME,
SUN BLOOD, CHAIN HERE IN YOUR
SILVER SPELL
WHOEVER WILL TRAMPLE YOUR TEARS
FORCING HIM TO MY DESIRE "
Do everything very calmly and methodically. The shop will never be as
busy as after you have made this treatment on its doorstep. It can only be
repeated in the new moon.
Rite with a candle to attract money
When the moon is full, light a white candle surrounded by a circle of
stones. The stones must be of: amber, tiger's eye, rock crystal, amethyst.
Write your wish for money in green ink on a note and read aloud what is
written three times before burning the paper in the candle flame, which
must then be left to be consumed entirely.
To arouse great charm and attraction in men
On the night of the beginning of the full moon, undress and stand in front of
the window (without being seen by anyone) only to receive the moon's rays.
The room must be illuminated by the light of a white candle.
Raise your arms above your head and swing them rhythmically as you say
your name. After 3 minutes,
stop and whisper:
"IN ME, FOR HECATE AND FOR ALL
POSITIVE SPIRITS,
THERE IS STRENGTH, CHARM AND
LOVE."
The spell is powerful and acts immediately.
Ritual with a candle to attract or strengthen a love
When the moon is full, light a green or pink or red candle surrounded by a
circle of stones. The stones must be of: amber, rose quartz, rock crystal,
amethyst. Write on a piece of paper with red ink your desire for love
indicating the name of the loved one, or with whom you want to make love.
Always have the foresight to write your own name first and then that of
your loved one because you have to be the one to dominate the situation.
Outline everything with a heart drawn with a single line of ink. Read aloud
what is written three times and then burn the paper with the desire, in the
flame of the candle that must be left to be consumed entirely.
TO BE LOVED
Offer and make your loved one drink an infusion of verbena, rose petals,
rosemary and sugar, prepared on a Friday with a waxing moon. The
infusion must be contained in a dark glass bottle that no one should see or
touch.
AGAIN, TO BE LOVED, WITH THE MAGIC OF
KNOTS
On a Friday with a full or crescent moon, buy a red ribbon and in the early
hours of the evening, isolate yourself in a quiet place, away from prying
eyes and visualize the person you want to attract. Slowly recite the
following formula:
"PUT ME AS A SEAL OVER YOUR HEART
PUT ME AS A SEAL OVER YOUR ARM
BECAUSE LOVE IS STRONG AS DEATH!"
I (your name) WANT YOU (the other person’s name)
FROM NOW ON YOU LOVE ME FOREVER!
Make the first knot in the red ribbon then repeat everything for 9
consecutive evenings.
On the ninth evening you will have obtained a ribbon with 9 knots that you
will have to tie on your left wrist. With your left hand, touch the person you
want.
L igament
On a Friday evening of the crescent Moon, equip yourself with a piece of
red cardboard or paper and a candle and a pen with ink of the same color.
On the sheet write your name and your date of birth and then the same data
of the loved one. Under the names write:
I LONG FOR YOU, WITH ALL MY HEART.
Load the sheet with all the will you can by thinking about the person in
question and visualizing the union that has taken place, the two of you
together embracing and in the act of giving each other a passionate kiss.
The leaflet must then be burned in the flame of the candle.
While the sheet is consumed in a container, better if it is made of copper or
a white saucer, say these words:
"LOVE MESSAGE BURNS AND WITH YOU ALSO THE HEART
OF LOVE BURNS
(their name) FOR ME!"
Repeat the formula until the sheet is completely reduced to ashes.
Keep the ash and the residue of the candle, which you have left to be
consumed completely until its natural extinction, in a cardboard box. Every
now and then use the ashes in small pinches to put either on the person's
photo or directly on them, but so as not to make them notice.
At one time it was customary to write on the paper with one's blood taken
from the left ring finger and the ash served in the food and drink of the
person to be attracted.

CHAPTER 5: MOON SPELLS FOR
LUCK
How many times have you raised your eyes to the sky praying to
the Blindfolded Goddess to have a little luck?
How many times have you felt unlucky and unable to understand
why bad luck haunts you?
The rituals that can be carried out using the various phases of the moon
are many, yet I believe that the most important is the need for Fortune. The
need to feel lucky.
The ritual must be carried out during the phase of the waxing moon until
the arrival of the full moon.
Three basil leaves
A vanilla stick
Half a teaspoon of cinnamon
Tiger eye (it is a stone used in crystal therapy)
A glass of extra virgin olive oil
Small container, preferably in glass
Glass bottle
On the first night of the growing moon, place the container outside so
that it is hit by the moon's rays. Put inside the container, in the following
order:
extra virgin olive oil
half a teaspoon of cinnamon
the three basil leaves previously chopped
the previously crushed vanilla stick
Stir clockwise several times visualizing luck going through your life with
small examples: a lucky day, a lottery win, a hoped-for match, a long-
awaited call, a little trip.
When the feeling of well-being warms you inside, insert the Tiger's Eye
stone into the container and cover everything with a white cloth, preferably
cotton, leaving the container outside until the Full Moon.
On the night of the Full Moon, take the container, mix the contents again
and filter everything inside a new glass bottle.
The oil obtained will be the oil of luck to be used in any type of context.
When you feel unlucky, just take a few drops of the oil and wipe it on your
wrists and in the center of your forehead.
THE TIGER EYE MUST BE PROMPTLY
DRIED AND IT WILL BE POSSIBLE TO USE
IT AS A GOOD LUCK TALISMAN

CHAPTER 6: SPELL TO GET RID
OF GOSSIP
THESE SPELLS ARE USED TO GET RID OF
GOSSIP AND BAD RUMORS WITH THE
HELP OF THE GODDESS TACITUS. TO
ACHIEVE THEM, THE MOON PHASE IS
FUNDAMENTAL, WHICH TELLS US WHAT
WE NEED TO ELIMINATE.
Often, we are so used to certain situations that we cannot understand how
negative they are.
For example, the sign of Gemini is an expert sign in the art of gossip, since
we are in the phase of the waning moon, we use this energy to get rid of
negative voices.
HOW?
To cite a bit of history, we can say that the Romans celebrated the goddess
Tacita, the goddess of silence who protected from gossip. Bad rumors can
destroy careers, marriages and lives, so we ask Tacita to protect us from
these evils, and make sure that we do not cause them to others.
R equired items :
3 candles (black, magenta and green)
Incense
Patchouli, mint and rose oils
M ethod :
If a specific person is gossiping, write her name in the black candle with a
knife. If she is not one in particular then write all the rumors. Grease the
base of the black candle with patchouli oil and focus on eliminating all the
bad voices from your life. Put your faith in the goddess to help you find the
right solution; place the black candle in the center of the altar.
Grease the magenta and green candles with mint or rose oil, always
at the base, focus on the positive energies that come into your life. Place the
candles on the altar, the magenta one on the left and the green one on the
right of the black.
Never ask to eliminate something in your life without replacing it
with something positive. Nature does not tolerate emptiness, so it is best to
fill it with something positive to prevent negative energies from becoming
stronger than before.
Spend a few minutes inhaling clear light and exhaling darkness with each
breath. Raise your palms to the candles and say:
'Gossip does not affect me,
bad words don't come close to me,
I am the light, I am the truth, I am love '.
Repeat these words three, five, seven or nine times until you feel their
positive meaning seep into your subconscious. Know that you are building
a protective shield around you made up of positive energies that are so
strong that negativity cannot pass through them.

OF THE REMNANTS OF THE WAX

CHAPTER 7 RELEASE RITUALS
The release rituals during the various phases of the moon are
numerous, each linked to the specific energy type of the moment.
During the waning moon, it is generally recommended to perform
release rituals.
The things that can be done in this particular phase are many, but it is
advisable to never perform more than one a day to avoid exceeding with the
use of this energy. Each of these rituals are a support to face the difficulties
and release what hinders change.
Healing ritual
The waning moon helps release health problems, and using its energy can
be beneficial.
You can leave water in a bottle on the windowsill and in the morning, you
can wash yourself with this water while saying this sentence:
“The moon is setting, adversity is going away. I wash myself with
this water and get rid of any disturbance."
Issue release
The waning moon also favors detachment from the problems that beset us.
The advice is to write on a piece of paper what we no longer want in our
life, and then burn it with a candle and disperse the ash in the air or in the
drain. Once this is done you can pronounce a sentence like:
“I leave my adversities to the moon as it wanes and helps to get rid of
all that is superfluous for me by making room for something positive
for me.”
Debt Relief Ritual
The waning moon is the right time to let go of financial troubles. It is
generally recommended to perform this ritual near the new moon. Take
some coins and say:
"As the moon is waning is the perfect time to let go of financial
problems. I will give away these coins, so that the money does not
leave me or other debts accumulate."
Then throw the change out of the window, being careful not to hit anyone.
Protection ritual
The waning moon phase is a time to also conduct a ritual of protection
against envy and evil, and to protect yourself from negative energies. You
create a talisman to your liking and leave it overnight in a container with
salt. Then you say this sentence, the next morning with the talisman in your
hands:
“This talisman protects me and saves me from anyone or anything
that tries to attack me in a negative way.”

CHAPTER 8: MOON RITUALS
WITH REIKI
Many years ago, I started doing Moon rituals again, and shortly after I had
the idea of adding Reiki to my rituals.
First of all, I prefer to give you some information on the phases of the
moon which, as you know, is the only satellite of the Earth and its energy
influences the waters of the oceans, the growth of plants and people.
Then I will explain why and how to do the Moon rituals with Reiki!
How to recognize the phases of the Moon
If you have never "worked" with the energy of the moon before, it is
important to:
understand its phases when it revolves around the earth,
know why you do the rituals to the moon,
know what kind of energetic work you can do in the different
moments of the synodic month (about 28/29 days).
The 8 phases of the Moon
The moon changes appearance in the sky because its rotation around the
Earth allows to define some fundamental "positions" that you can easily
observe:
new moon : you cannot see the moon;
crescent moon : you see the moon in the shape of Ͻ (C in reverse)
which continues to grow;
first quarter : it seems that the moon is divided in two, the right
half bright and the left one invisible;
full moon : we see it beautiful, round, and it lights up the night;
waning moon : the roundness of the moon decreases;
last quarter : when the moon is again divided in two, but with the
right half invisible and the left half bright;
waning moon : when we see the C-shaped moon that continues to
decrease until it disappears completely in the 3 days of the new
moon.
Why do Moon rituals?
Since the moon has a strong influence on the Earth and the waters of the
oceans and seas, it also affects us humans, as well as our emotions and
thoughts.
RITUALS IN THE PAST
Since ancient times, humans have looked to the sky and observed the stars,
the Sun and the Moon and knew their effects on us and our life. In doing so,
they intended to take advantage of the expanding or diminishing energies of
the moon and created several deities connected to our satellite:
Amaterasu in Japan,
Selene and Artemis for the ancient Greeks,
Chandra in India,
Hanwi for the Ogala Sioux, etc.
RITUALS TODAY
Personally, I prefer to do 3 rituals a month at the time of the new moon and
full moon.
T oday many people, especially women, have resumed following the
movements of the Moon and perform rituals with the intent of manifesting
with the moon what they want to create in their life.
the best lunar period to help new beginnings, manifest wishes,
N ew M oon :
transform and attract money, love and quality into your life.
this is the time when the Moon reaches its maximum
F ull M oon E ve :
expansion before becoming full, so its energies are very strong. That
evening, the objects that you want to charge with the moon energy should
be displayed: water, stones, jewels, notebook of wishes expressed at the
previous new moon, etc.
F ull M oon :the ideal time to release negativity, bad karma, relationships or
difficult situations, to lose weight and let go of everything you no longer
need.
H ow to do M oon rituals with R eiki
Once I was preparing a ritual for the Moon, I thought about adding Reiki,
to:
energetically clean the room;
give me a self-treatment of Reiki to prepare myself and
concentrate on what I had to do during the ritual;
do a Reiki treatment in my notebook where my wishes and
positive affirmations are expressed.
And I realized I was manifesting with Reiki, as well as with the moon.
Let's see these passages one after the other.
CLEAN THE ROOM WITH REIKI
If you have Reiki (at least 2nd level), your Reiki Master will have explained
to you how to clean a room with Reiki. For me, it is the most complete way
to get a really bright and light place, in every sense.
However, if you do not have Reiki, in addition to physically cleaning your
room, you can have incense burned before performing your ritual. I prefer
to use grain incense (myrrh, frankincense or sandalwood), but you can also
use Palo Santo, sage or sticks.
Get yourself a Reiki self-treatment but to perform the rituals of the Moon
After cleaning your room, prepare all the necessary materials, play some
relaxing music and settle down to get yourself a Reiki self-treatment.
Choose whether to sit (or lie down) outside or inside the house:
If you are going to do the full moon ritual, settle down where
you can see it.
If you don't see it, know that her energy is still present and she
reaches you wherever you are, even inside the house.
Then, do a Reiki self-treatment to rebalance your energies, those of your
physical body and also your emotions and thoughts.
And while you are doing Reiki, the energy emanating from the Moon
balances the aura and chakras. Try it, it's a magical feeling!
Your wishes
After cleaning your room and getting yourself a reiki self-treatment, let's
move on to the next phase corresponding to the moon ritual.
The time has come to ask the moon for what you want for yourself, but
your intent must be clear, so I recommend you write:
your wishes on a sheet or in your notebook;
your positive affirmations (depending on the moon phase as
explained above);
read them in another voice and rectify them if you feel the need, until
you feel that the words you have written represent exactly what you
think and feel.
conclude by doing Reiki on the sheet on which you wrote, with the
intention that your words will be fulfilled for the greatest good and in the
best possible way for you and that of others.

CHAPTER 9: WHAT TO DO ON
THE EVE OF THE FULL MOON
The eve of a full moon, the night of a full moon and the first day of a
waning moon, exploit the energy of the moon!
1 - FULL MOON EVE EVENING -
AMPLIFICATION RITUAL TO BE PERFORMED
FROM WHEN IT GETS DARK, POSSIBLY WITH
THE MOON VISIBLE
Invoke the Archangel Haniel, the one who helps you to live in harmony
with the cycles of the moon and use their energies for crystals, stones,
water, oils and various objects, and ask to bless the objects that you will
display out in the open, at the moon light.
An example of prayer :
Archangel Haniel, I call you here and now. Bless my objects and
desires by charging them with your energy and lunar energy, while I
give thanks for my many achievements and blessings. May my heart
desires manifest, for my greatest supreme good and in the best way.
Put glass bottles filled with water out in the open in the light of the moon,
your creams, your jewels, your stones and - if you have other objects dear
to you, display those too. Place the objects somewhere so that the
moonlight illuminates them for at least 2 hours, preferably all night. For
jewelry, keep it out of the reach of thieves!
ENERGIZED CREAMS WILL BE MORE
EFFECTIVE ON YOUR FACE AND BODY!
I personally expose to the moon 6 bottles of water (GLASS, and NOT
plastic) closed with a cork. Leave them all night in order to charge them
with the energy of the moon. Also display a written list of your wishes
along with the items. Make sure you write a few, clear words, so that the
message is well received by your subconscious and comes CLEAR to the
Universe which will help its realization. For example: thank you for the
mutual respect between my husband and me, thank you for my new office,
thank you for letting me make more money than I spend ...
You can write the wishes in a special notebook; with the date you
expressed them and then expose the notebook page to the moon on the eve
of the full moon. I have the "notebook of the moon" where I write on the
one hand the wishes I express to the new moon and on the other, those I
expose to the full moon. Often, they coincide, but this is not necessarily the
case, sometimes after 15 days I realize that one thing no longer interests me
or that it is under construction, and then I write another! It is wonderful to
have proof of the evolution of my desires which are always similar but
never the same, and then many are REALIZED and others canceled
because I no longer want them!
Do not put the times, those depend on YOU and your desire to
fulfill the desire. However, consider that next month, at the new moon, you
will draw up another list and check the progress of this month's wishes.
Some of them may no longer interest you ...
Entrust your wishes to the moon, leave them to her, feel that they are
no longer with you. Trust me, let them go!
Of course, drink the water exposed to the moon! Make your loved ones
drink it (without giving them too many explanations ...) and notice an
increase in their energy and mood. You will all feel good!
I propose to do this ritual on the eve of a full moon because the moon
certainly has INCREASING energy, but it can also be done at a full moon if
the full moon time is from 9 pm onwards.
2 - FULL MOON EVENING AND / OR THE DAY
AFTER REMOVAL RITUAL.
This is the time to take off weight. Do you know why? Because the moon
from when it starts to wane from full takes away strength from negativity.
L et go of the negativities in your life . Write on a piece of
paper everything you want to get rid of, expose it to the moonlight, then ask
the Archangel Haniel if you need to use water or fire to get rid of them
permanently. (e.g. write I want to get rid of my complacency towards others
- of frustration for having failed at work - of concern for my child's well-
being - of my fear of flying ...)
A lso note a habit you want to let go of such as smoking,
idleness, disorder, too much TV, bad eating habits ... The ritual should be
done outside, looking at the moon and showing her the written sheet, as
long as it is illuminated by it for a moment. You does not need to leave it
exposed because the most effective moment of the ritual is when the sheet
is destroyed ... The suggestive light of the moon acts as a GUARANTOR of
this destruction.
Hey, remember you REALLY have to want it! It is too easy to say that this
ritual does not work if you do it superficially! You REALLY have to want
to leave behind what weighs down your life.
If Haniel suggests fire to you, burn the paper . If it's water, tear the
paper to pieces and throw it into a river, into a well, into a lake ... even the
toilet if you have no other way. It is also okay to destroy it the next day,
leaving the sheet exposed for the whole night, but I have verified that it is
better to do it on the evening of a full moon. Thank the water or fire that
took your negativity away with it. It doesn't really matter if you destroy it
with water or fire, but you want to know how to perceive Haniel's answer to
your question of water or fire? the FIRST answer that flashes in your mind
is the right one.
This ritual (to be done ONLY on the evening of a full moon and / or
the day after, depending on the time when the full moon occurs) is very
effective, it strengthens your confidence and frees up new creative energy.
Also, as you reflect on your real desires, something special also happens in
your rational mind: you set the brain gps in the direction of their realization.
Always at full moon, if you have a health problem ask Haniel and the
moon to absorb it and take it away with them. Stay 5 minutes in the
moonlight and "feel" that it eases your discomfort. BELIEVE IT!
Entrust it to them! Feel that it is SO!
Let go of the NEED that everything you ask for comes true. Let the ritual
be like a game, something light and fun. The DETACHMENT is an integral
and necessary part to realize the intentions / desires.
The following days after withdrawing the desires exposed, you feel inspired
to act in the direction of the desires ... I recommend you throw yourself into
it! NOTE the opportunities that present themselves to you ... Remember
that YOU CO-CREATE together with the moon the reality you desire.
The important thing is to repeat the ritual as often as possible and
have a calendar available to remember the dates.
Lunar calendars (google them) show you the phases of the moon (new
moon, waxing moon, full moon, waning moon) and also the times when the
full moon shows itself for 12 hours one day in every 28.

CHAPTER 10: BLACK MOON AND
LILITH
The phase of the black moon, that is, when the celestial star of the
night becomes invisible, has always been judged under a nefarious
aspect. On the one hand we cannot blame this reality, namely that of
a nefarious use since it is on this moonless night that witches
gathered during the Middle Ages.
It is also often used for black magic rituals, but there are several
prodigious aspects that are attributed to this deity. The new moon is the
aspect of the goddess Lilith, whose worship is celebrated in the first 3 days
prior to the black moon, during the 3 days of the black moon and in the 3
days after. The symbolic reference to numerology is 3 3 3 which added
together are the number 9 which indicates birth or rebirth.
In any case, the black moon, or new moon, is the phase in which the
moon is in shadow, hidden from the Sun and therefore does not live
on reflected light, but on its own light.
It is part of the secret and hidden rituals of magic , wicca and
witches. It has a strong renewing energy, acts on the independence of
thought and has a remarkable magical building force that invests the
follower or scholar of this cult. The energies that are called up are often
destructive to others, but only when you don't know how to use them.
DURING THE BLACK MOON, THE CULT OF
LILITH IS CELEBRATED TO CONTRAST
THE ESBAT OF THE FULL MOON.
The mother of the witches
There are very few occult treatises that have spoken of Lilith, since the
Christian religion has tried to make us forget the mother of the witches.
Except that her tradition has remained both in oral legends and
mythologies, in her cult, belonging only to secret witches and in some
treatises that symbolize her as the first woman of Adam.
Furthermore, we find her in Hebrew sacred texts, as man's first wife, but
which shows very particular sides of her character. She is rebellious,
vengeful and independent. She is the goddess of cunning, wisdom and
strong independence. Seductive, charming, passionate and very sex-loving,
for this reason Lilith has always represented a complex goddess and not is
accepted in a world of passivity or masculinity.
Lilith's wicca are very solitary, we can say that they are amazons, often
"extreme feminists", who do not respect the masculine element and the sun
god. Those who follow Lilith's wicca are masters of red and black magic
spells.
L ilith : the bride of Satan
L ilith , the first woman , Satan's bride, black moon
L ilith was a goddess who did not submit to the will of man. Although
she also lived in the earthly paradise, she became Adam's first "bride"
whom he repudiated because she did not submit to her will.
This is what the Christian religion has often stated, but if we rely on the
Hebrew and Sanskrit writings we see a different version.
T he beauty of the goddess L ilith was such that she struck the
man, Adam, with whom she mated several times, but her will and her desire
for freedom was stronger than human obedience. She later decided to
abandon her partner by flying through the air. She coupled with Satan, an
angel fallen to earth, and from him she gave birth to hordes and hordes of
demons that populated the world. Adam asked her to come back to him,
which she did, but Adam, tired of the goddess, asked for a human woman
who was subject to his will and from which there was the episode of
"Adam's rib".
L ilith , in mythology or legend handed down orally, ordered the
snake to convince Eve to eat the apple, in some versions it was she who
turned into a snake. This was her gift to Eve. The apple is a symbol of
intelligence and wisdom.
In astrology , L ilith is represented by the black moon or
new moon, which influences the sexual aspect of the brain. Summoning
Lilith is not an easy practice. Recalling her, many demons, spirits and the
kingdom of the dead challenge each other, so the entities that can respond
are different and all violent.
P recisely for this reason it is a practice of black magic .
However, there are means of communication that do not perform a real call,
but a devout prayer where she, if she accepts our gifts, offerings and altars,
could infuse us with a different power in the spells that are performed.
P repare an altar in the days of the black moon, as written above. A
tablet with the symbol of the 9-pointed pentacle and the symbol of Lilith
must be placed on the altar. In the center place the moon tarot card, but it
must be turned upside down. Then light 3 black candles to burn for 9 days.
O fferings to be made can be spiced red wine drinks .
Seasonal fruit, in reference to the month. Jewelery based on silver and
crystals, these will then be charged with its energy and you can wear them
during the rituals. Flowers must not be missing – strong blues, reds, and
woods of trees in season.
T he lunar cycle is closely linked to female menstruation and many
women, the exact percentage is not known, have their first menstruation
during the new moon, i.e. the black moon.
T he astrological influences it possesses are many. During this
time it is normal to have several mental processes that are slightly slow,
thoughtful and pragmatic. It increases sensitivity and emotions. The woman
opens up to primal instincts.
Right at this moment, that is, during the period of the black moon, the need
to withdraw from the world, that is to do meditation, prayer, divination and
magic, is very much supported. A condition that is also felt by those who do
not believe in magic since the astrological influence is very strong.
LILITH IS THE DARK PART OF EACH OF US, which in the
horoscope represents sexuality and all that is mystery, what has now been
removed on a conscious level. It has the power to seduce and attract but it is
feared ... like any force that becomes difficult to control, like any dark side
that is difficult to bring to light and face.
In astrology it is not to be confused with the but it is
B lack M oon of 'N ew M oon ',
the double face of the moon that Lilith represents, with two different
interpretations: for some it is a satellite, while for others it is the rotation of
the line that unites apogee and perigee (the minimum and maximum
distances of the moon from the earth).
F or everyone it assumes the same meaning : the hidden face of
the moon, that part of us of our limits or problems that we do not want to
discover or see in order to be faced and solved, is also the latent part of us.
THE MYTH OF LILITH is present in the biblical myths, in the
numerical tradition, in the Egyptian, Greek and Roman one, and is always
linked to the symbolism of the Great Mother with disturbing and destructive
values. In the Middle Ages she was the witch, the dream and the nightmare
halfway between fairy tale and folk tale. In the Jewish cabal, close to the
astrological tradition, Lilith was the name of one of the seven threatening
demons of mankind, and at the same time one of the seven predatory
animals that will assault the Earth on the last day. She is also placed in
parallel with the figure of Saturn, as the mother of melancholy, of the "black
mood", in fact.
In the mythology of the G reek and E astern worldshe is
one of the nocturnal and infernal female divinities, such as Isis, Hecate and
Persephone (therefore she approaches the myth of Pluto, also linked to the
kingdom of the dead). They are opposed to the goddesses who represent
fertility, such as Istar, Cybele, Era.
F rom the astrological point of view , at least in the most
ancient texts, this antithesis is reported: Moon and Black Moon are opposed
and Lilith is seen as the generating nucleus of every vice, disease, disorder
and sexual deviation.
THE FORMATION OF THE MYTH OF THE BLACK
MOON IS ALWAYS ASSOCIATED WITH LILITH, it has its
typical and specific root in the cycle of the Moon with its phases. The
crescent moon and the full moon were experienced as a beneficial influence
on all of nature, a sign of growth and fertility. When the Moon, having
concluded the last phase, disappears, the dramatic and disturbing "Black
Moon" is analogically realized, the absent, the demon of darkness and then
it becomes dark, cruel, destructive and malignant.
THE APPROACH TO LILITH CHANGES WITH FREUD
AND JUNG and she is no longer seen as an archaic and completely
destructive divinity, but is brought back into the original archetype of the
Great Mother, which reflects the partial removal of instincts and the
censorship of sexual drives. In the astrological interpretation, Lilith always
reflects the instinctual conflict of the repressed drives, the dark side of
sexuality.

CHAPTER 11: HOW TO SUMMON
LILITH
The summoning of Lilith can be varied; however, most ways are
aimed at all those who want to ingratiate themselves with the Black
Goddess or create dominion over the other sex. Men should NEVER
invoke Lilith, because they would risk being subjected to her.
T he following items are required :
A black ribbon with an embroidered or drawn element of the
symbolism of Lilith
Some small bells to tie to black ribbons
Two larger bells to hold in the hand
Two candles, one black and one white
A mixture of incense with its charcoal to burn it, consisting of:
white incense, black incense, coriander, turpentine gum, aloe
wood, sugar
A mirror, even of modest size, which must be covered by a black
veil, or alternatively, must bear the symbol of Lilith with lipstick
METHOD
D uring the N ew M oon or B lack N ight ,
take off your clothes completely. Tie the
black ribbon around your head and the ones with the bells on your wrists,
ankles and waist. Light the charcoal in the container and drop the incense
onto them. Light the two candles, first the white and then the black, and
place them in such a way that they are safe from any movement you may
make during the ritual.
Now find your state of concentration and recite the following prayer three
times:
LILITH, QUEEN OF DARKNESS WHO GIVES LIFE TO
SIDEREAL DRAGONS,
BLACK MOON THAT STRIKES THE SKY AS A WANDERING
STAR,
PROTECT US WITH YOUR HEAVENLY VAMPIRE WINGS.
QUEEN OF THE NIGHT, SHARPEN THE VEILS OF OUR MIND
TO SILVERY OCCULT DESIRES.
STELLAR NIGHTMARE, BURN OUR BODY TO THE
POWERFUL ECSTASY OF VIRGINAL LUST.
INVISIBLE COMET WITH LONG BLACK HAIR, BRUSH YOUR
HAIR LIKE BURNING TENTACLES ON OUR SKIN.
DARK CLOUD, WRAP US IN A COSMIC ENVIRONMENT IN
THE COILS OF THE ETERNAL SERPENT.
LILITH BREAKS OUR BEING INTO THE DARK DEPTH OF
CHAOS
TO EXPLODE AGAIN IN INFINITE ESSENCES.
NOW take the bells between your fingers and approach the brazier where
the incense burns by shaking your private parts. Close your eyes now and
focus on the Goddess, so that it is propitious for you. Open your eyes again
and move away from the brazier and lie down on the ground or on the bed
or sofa if present in the room. Now close your eyes again and let yourself
go to the force that you feel in you and throughout the room, doing
everything your body suggests. You will experience the sensation of a hot
vortex that expands to the genital area, a great erotic arousal and a sense of
domination over the object of the ritual. After this phase, get up slowly,
dismiss the Goddess, thanking her for her presence and put out the incense
first with water and then the two candles, first the white and then the black.
RITUAL VARIES FROM 30 TO 60 MINUTES
AND SHOULD NEVER BE CELEBRATED
DURING THE MONTHLY CYCLE!!!!

CHAPTER 12: THE IMPORTANCE
OF THE COLORS OF THE
CANDLES
D ifferent colors attract different energies and
stimulate certain vibrations in the chakras. Using candles of specific
colors can help amplify the energies in the ritual or magical
operation.
Like the phases of the moon, the colors of the candles that are used in
Magic also have their own specific function, and it is therefore good to
consider each color in order to achieve the purpose of the Ritual that we
want to prepare in the best possible way. Here is a simple chart with the
most used colors in Magic!

SILVER CANDLE
S ilver is the color of the M oon and it embodies all female and
lunar divinities. Obviously it is connected to femininity, intuition, psychic

spells is closely related to the observation of the phases of the moon.
In some magical traditions , candles are used for divination purposes .
To read wax, the typical practice is to drop the wax into a bowl of cold
water. The wax will harden almost immediately and form symbols or
shapes. B y reading these forms you can get answers to our
questions .
Bright flame that burns quickly - it's good. The forces of Magic are with
you.
Weak flame that burns slowly: the spell is working against some opposition.
Flame above normal size: the spirit you invoked is present.
Very weak flame: it can indicate the presence of impure or restless spirits.
When we do our candle rituals and spells, we have to choose the ingredients
that align with our goal. We always want to find a candle in the color that
matches our goal. We also want to use oils, herbs and incense that match the
goal.
L et ' s see an example . Suppose I want to make money magic.
Looking in my closet, I could use:
A candles must always be new. As for the choice of color, use
green candle :
the guide we have just seen.
A the golden color represents wealth (it's not real gold,
golden candlestick :
it's just golden in color, but it will do).
A vocado oil : an oil for wealth.
G round cinnamon : a spice associated with money and good luck.
D ragon B lood R esin : a resin that will enhance our spell.
G round G inger : this spice is used to speed up results.
This is part of everyone's learning. Learning to do white magic is also
learning to choose the appropriate matches to your goals and ideals. There
are many correspondence letters in books and on the Internet that can be
useful to you. The most important thing to remember is that matches must
have meaning to you.
A good question we can ask ourselves when choosing matches is: "What
do I associate with my goal?" Green reminds me of money and wealth. If
gold or brown or red is reminiscent of money and abundance, then you
could use these colors. If you didn't have avocado oil, you could use corn
oil. Wheat reminds me of cash crops and prosperity. You can use olive oil -
it's expensive, so you might see it as a luxury item.
Candle Spells: Anointing the candle
It is important to be able to establish a psychic bond between the candle,
you and your target. The process of doing this is known as "the anointing of
the candle".
A nointing the candle simply requires a candle and some
oil (whatever you have chosen based on your goal). You need to pour the
oil into your hands and rub it into the candle. There are many different
opinions on the "right way" to rub the oil into the candle. Here are some
options:
Rub the candle with oil from top to bottom
Rub the candle with oil from bottom to top
Rub from top to bottom to get things to you
Rub from the bottom up to send things away from you
Start in the center of the candle and rub from center to tip, then
center to foot
Start at the ends of the candle. Rub the oil from the top to the center,
then from the bottom end to the center.
So, what is the most appropriate method ? This is one of those
things where different methods work and you have to choose the one that
works best for you.
T he As the oil is
most important thing is your mood while anointing the candle .
rubbed into the candle, you need to visualize your intention and mentally
"pour" that energy into the candle. You can use a chant at this point if you
feel it will help you and you will feel like you are charging energy. It is
possible that your hands start to feel heavy or you start to feel that the
candle is pulsing with energy, this is good, it is working.
Do this for a couple of minutes , perhaps 50 to 100 steps, until
you feel that the candle is sufficiently charged. You can anoint your candle
before starting the ritual if you want it to be ready, or you can do it before
casting your spell. You decide.

CHAPTER 13: HOW TO PREPARE
AN ALTAR FOR THE RITES
PUTTING AN ALTAR TOGETHER IS ACTUALLY QUITE
SIMPLE. You probably want to include a few things to decorate, but in
principle, it is mostly functional. It must be created with the idea to help
you achieve your goals. Here are the basic things that most of the traditions
of Wicca and Paganism included in the altars.
T he symbols of the four traditional elements . Usually,
these are aligned with the four cardinal points. You can place a bowl of soil
or sand on the northern tip of your altar to represent the earth, an incense
stick in the east can symbolize air, a candle or coal in the south to represent
fire, and a bowl of water in the west.
C andles . You can also add on your altar candles to the Goddess and the
God if tradition refers to them, or you can use four candles to represent the
four directions. Make sure you always have a lighter or matches close at
hand.
T he athame . Most Wiccans and Pagans use a dagger in their rituals, so
you can put one on your altar.
T he wand .The wand is used to direct energy, so if you decide to use one,
always keep it on your altar.
Y our B ook of S hadows . If you are planning to do several spells or
rituals, it is helpful to have one on hand. Essentially, it is a personal diary or
cookbook in which you keep the spells you use, take notes, and document
your experiences and results.
Y ou can add more entries as needed , and according to the space
they allow. You can include any components that you are going to need in
your spells. If you are celebrating a special occasion, or invoking a
particular deity, you can decorate the altar accordingly too. Either way,
make sure your altar contains everything you need to make the spells
effective before starting the ceremony.
I think few people know that the traditional gesture of blowing out birthday
candles actually hides a profound magical meaning. You had your first
magical experience, unknowingly, making a wish before blowing out the
candles on the cake.
The candle, in fact, is a synthesis of very important symbols: it
symbolizes man. It has a body of wax, a soul (the wick) and a spirit
(the flame); as a man is born (ignition of the flame), lives by aging
(gradual melting of the wax) and dies (extinction of the flame). A
perfect synthesis between matter and spirit.
W ax has been used since ancient times as a magical means: to build wax
figurines for the most varied purposes, for medicinal use (see writings by
Pliny, Ovid and Plato), and also for ceromancy, a form of divination that
was obtained dropping drops of melted wax into cold water to read omens.
One of the most important practical uses of candles was undoubtedly to
make light. The C erus was made up of a wick of rush pith which was
dipped in the melted wax several times, until the desired thickness was
obtained.
But candles have always been more closely linked to religious
ceremonies in almost all cultures.
The candles that are used in magic can be both beeswax and paraffin wax,
as far as the Solomonic magicians say, the symbolism remains intact even
without the use of the very expensive pure and bleached beeswax. Since it
is often necessary to completely burn the candles, during a ritual, we
recommend candles 12-15 cm high, and 1.5 cm at the base.
AS ALWAYS, YOU HAVE TO EXPERIMENT
ON YOUR OWN: IN FACT, WHAT IS GOOD
FOR ME MAY NOT BE GOOD FOR YOU
AND VICE VERSA.
White
Helps to concentrate in meditation, develops inspirations and protects
against negative influences.
Light blue
It protects from evil and deceit, promotes prophetic dreams and helps you
relax and sleep.
Green
It stimulates healing, gives security, prosperity and luck, is conducive to
new beginnings.
Yellow
It favors personal charm and confidences, fills with positive energy and new
strength.
Orange
They promote clarity of thought, creativity and stimulate positive energies.
Red
It increases the willpower courage, increases the desire, and not just sexual.
Purple
They serve to put in contact with the world of spirits and are used in
mediumistic sessions.
Brown
They are used to find lost objects, for rituals concerning animals or one's
home.
Black
Those are used to banish and repel negative energies.
The color of a candle is like a key that opens a certain sector of your
subconscious and of your entire being. Color dynamizes or activates
a certain part of your being when it is perceived by your vision, its
impulses are transmitted to the brain by the nerves.
Candles can be purchased, but if you prepare your own candles, perhaps on
days appropriate to the rituals you want to perform, you will charge the
candles with an energy that otherwise they will never have. A handmade
candle, although not beautiful, will be more effective than a bought candle.
You can also perfume them with essences that bind to the purpose of the
ritual and you can give them the right shade of color.

CHAPTER 14: RITUAL GESTURES
TO CELEBRATE THE ENERGY OF
THE FULL MOON
THE FULL MOON IS THE TIME WHEN THE
MOON IS AT THE END OF ITS NATURAL
CYCLE AND REVEALS ALL ITS LIGHT
AND ENERGY OF HER.
Here are three simple ritual gestures to welcome and celebrate the
revealing energy of the Full Moon.
This magical moon symbolizes the moment when the seeds of intention
planted with the new moon begin to bloom. During each full moon, it is as
if the Universe invites us to slow down for a moment and reveal ourselves
to ourselves to understand what we are really manifesting in our life. This
moon asks us to shed some light on the road we are traveling on, evaluate
our steps, and if necessary correct the course.
1. Listen to your emotions
The best way to celebrate the Full Moon is to take the time to reflect. This
is the perfect opportunity to understand where we have arrived in our
personal journey. Am I really manifesting what I want? What milestones
have I already achieved, and what are the things I still need to change?
The full moon brings our intentions to the fore and amplifies our emotions,
and this can be good, as it makes it easier to process them.
2. Tidy up inside and out
The Full Moon is the perfect time to purify our space, our body and our
mind. It is useless to hold back what we do not need, we make order inside
and outside of us.
In a clean environment it is easier to clarify. Let's indulge in a ritual bath
with essential oils, burn some incense, create a relaxed environment in
which to dedicate ourselves, and if you like, meditate.
Let's spend time with our thoughts, watch them flow and learn to give
worries the right importance.
3. Recharge your energies
Energy is abundant during each full moon, so a wonderful way to celebrate
it is to simply sit back and relax, to recharge your energy.
Sometimes we need stillness to observe what is happening around us, to
notice how we feel, to discover the opportunities that are hidden right
before our eyes.
REMEMBER, YOU ARE EXACTLY WHERE
YOU SHOULD BE, SO ENJOY IT, FOR A
MOMENT.

CHAPTER 15: WHAT MOON
WATER IS AND HOW IT WORKS
Water charged with the energies of the Moon is particularly
BENEFICIAL AND PROTECTIVE. It favors physical and mental
balance and instills a sense of unity with the whole universe.
L unar water is simply ordinary water that has been exposed to the light
of the moon and charged with a positive intention.
M oon water is used for many purposes, such as holy water, to enhance
rituals, mixing it with bath water will help you relax, drinking it will help
you clear your mind and empower your love and including increase your
power spiritual, you can make tea with it and water your plants to make
them grow beautifully.
T he water of the moon can change according to your intentions as
you prepare it and also varies according to the zodiac signs, that is, in which
sign the full moon is.
The Messages from Water and the Power of Intention
The power of our thoughts and intentions was at the center of Dr. Masaru
Emoto's studies. Thanks to years of experiments and research, Dr. Emoto
discovered how water reacts and changes at the molecular level depending
on the vibration to which it is subjected, both in the form of thoughts,
words, both written and spoken, music or prayers.

To prepare the Lunar Water, you only need:
a 1liter bottle of clear glass
1 liter of drinking water
To proceed with the preparation, simply fill the glass bottle with
water and place it where it can be illuminated by the moon's rays
(preferably outside, but an internal window sill is also fine).
It doesn't matter if the sky is cloudy, as moonlight, just like sunlight, can
easily penetrate clouds.
While placing the bottle with water in the light of the moon, it is important
to focus on a very specific intention so that it is transmitted to
the water.
It must be left all night under a full moon and must be withdrawn before the
sun rises. The water will recharge itself with the energy of the moon which,
as we know, has a great influence on everything and every being. It should
be drunk in total tranquility and living the moment, that is, drink it with
awareness. The mind must remain free of thoughts, totally concentrated on
this wonderful ritual.
HOW TO PREPARE LUNAR WATER WITH
CRYSTALS
To create lunar water with crystals, you will need a transparent
crystal . A rock crystal is therefore perfect. Lunar water must be prepared
during the Full Moon or the day immediately preceding this lunar phase.
Place your crystal in an unpainted glass container and cover it with plain
water. At sunset, place the container on your balcony, or outside your front
door, in a corner well-lit by the moon. At dawn, you can remove it. Remove
the crystal and store the water in a bottle. Energized, it can be drunk every
morning before starting the day to receive strength and protection.
It can be prepared in various phases of the moon, you can make your
water in full moon or waxing moon, waning moon or new moon.
D epending on the use you will then make of it .
New Moon Water:
Holistic care (both for body, mind and / or spirit), new beginnings, project
initiation rituals.
Crescent Moon Water:
Works of inspiration, growth and love.
Full Moon Water:
Positivity and emotional and psychic healing, maintaining and increasing
what we already have or attracting abundance.
Waning Moon Water:
Cleansing, detoxification, releasing old and negative energies.

CHAPTER 16 THE RITE OF THE
MOON BATH
MOON AND FEMININITY . A combination of ancient origins linked
to the menstrual cycle, whose repetition is intertwined with the phases of
the moon. Often considered a nuisance, menstruation actually offers a
woman the opportunity to perceive her own physiology and to feel how
these changes affect her psychological processes.
T he connection between femininity and the moon is found even in the
etymology of the term menstruation, deriving from the Latin mens and from
the Greek men, menos, whose meanings are moon, month and measure. In
fact, the menstrual cycle, corresponding to the lunar cycle, in ancient times
determined the measurement of time. Just think of the lunar calendars with
13 months of 28 days, corresponding to female menstrual cycles.
The period of menstruation was considered by some communities the most
important because in this phase the woman was totally in contact with
cosmic energies, therefore capable of dreams and prophetic visions. It is no
coincidence that in some cultures women used to retire to the so-called red
tents to rest, take care of each other and isolate themselves from the
surrounding community.
In those days, women became portals between this world
and the world beyond , that of spirits, from which they carried
important messages for the whole community. Isolation did not depend on
the refusal of the menstruating woman, subsequently accused of being
impure, but on the need to retire for a few days from daily chores,
dedicating the time of menstruation only to themselves.
Even in myth and in many ancient legends the moon was a
symbol of the feminine, her protector deity, just as the sun symbolized the
masculine principle. The moon in turn was associated with night and
darkness, the realm of intuition and the inner world, incomprehensible to
the rational mind. The female conscience symbolized by the moon, not
detached from the unconscious, was also considered the bearer of spiritual
rebirth because the mystery of transformation is hidden in the darkness.
Since the feminine is intimately linked to the moon , rituals
have developed over the centuries that see them both as protagonists. The
lunar rituals we are talking about today are evident reinterpretations and it
is not known how faithful they are to the ancient ones, however it is
interesting to know their existence and why not, to test them. We women
have been removed from our natural rhythm, which is essentially lunar and
in doing so, we have progressively lost contact with cosmic rhythms. We no
longer have a cosmic life, and we miss the Sun and the Moon within us.
Yet there would be a very simple and natural way to go back to
moving and turning to the rhythm of the Moon: to follow it in its waxing
and waning phases. There are many ancient traditions that despite the
attempt to eradicate them, have come to us intact through the knowledge
kept by shamans and priestesses over the centuries. One of these is the
Aztec tradition of the Lunar Bath.
A ccording handed down by Mexican curanderos, a
to this ancient tradition
woman must immerse herself in the water at least once every 29 days, when
the Moon disappears for a whole day, to reappear again and begin the new
cycle.
A ccording to this ancient cosmic law , at the end of menstruation (4th week of
the female cycle) the woman, freed of the blood and no longer vital eggs,
must - in the period of darkness (29 days) - cleanse her entire body of
negative residues, preparing her for the new cycle.
At the exact time of the "New Moon" (or 1 hour, or 7 hours, or 14 hours
later) you must take a purifying bath following a particular ritual:
1) The bathroom must be clean and tidy
2) "A rtificial light " should not be used, but only that of candles,
which must be of "beeswax" or the "color" you like best
3) Choose the perfume that is the most pleasant at that moment,
following the rhythm of the months and giving preference to seasonal
flowers
4) Choose music that leads to a state of peace and total relaxation
5) Prepare clean white towels
6) If the ritual is done at night, choose your most beautiful pajamas , made
of silk, cotton or linen, which allows the skin to breathe
7) The water must be lukewarm , slightly above 38 degrees, so that it
cannot be entered immediately, but gradually
8) You enter the water with your left foot , slowly, and only after
placing it on the floor of the bath, do you put your right foot in
9) When both feet are resting on the floor, all attention is placed on both
feet and you take a long inhalation. You hold your breath for about 4
seconds. Then exhale, mentally asking that part of the body, just immersed
in water, that you want all the accumulated negative energy to be expelled.
The same breathing and the same mental request addressed to the parts of
the body, which are progressively immersed in hot water, must be
performed for all subsequent phases up to total immersion
10) G et on your knees then stretch your legs, keeping the groin and
genital parts underwater, slowly stretch up to the navel (intestine), cover the
solar plexus up to the breast, then the chest up to the throat, which should
wet just under the chin, slowly passes to the mouth, then to the nose,
plugging the nostrils with the right hand and enter the water with open eyes,
closing them and immersing oneself totally
11) This is the most important moment because we pass again from the
death of the ovum to its rebirth . It is like procreating a new
being that plunges into water that assumes the role of the amniotic fluid in
the belly of a pregnant woman on a psychological level
12) You remain underwater until you can’t hold your breath any longer
13) You stay immersed in water for as long as you want, gently
massaging the whole body, paying attention to the parts that are tense
and to those that are painful. Concentrate on these parts and pay attention to
the thoughts that arise, and that lead to remembering pleasant and
unpleasant events and sensations
14) After this moment, we soap ourselves, spreading the soap all over the
body so that all dirt is eliminated. Take a stiff brush, rubbing the whole
body, in order to remove the old, dead cells. During this operation, the dirty
water is drained away, keeping the hot water tap open until the water returns
clean and clear
15) You immerse yourself in the water again, remaining motionless for a
few minutes, making sure that the bath empties slowly
16) When the tub has emptied, stand up and take a liberating shower ,
switching from hot to cold water
17) D ry yourself slowly and yes, spread a toning cream on your skin
18) After the ceremony go to the living room and lie down for a few
moments, sipping a hot flavored drink and listen to music that caresses your
heart, making it vibrate
W omen who have a different menstrual rhythm must do the
ceremony at the end of the cycle and at the hours of the change of the
Moon, from waning to increasing, observing if the rhythm of their body
remains constant and / or adapts to the natural one of the lunar cycle.
W omen who have passed the menopause must do the ceremony
both on the New Moon and on the Full Moon, so that the body maintains
and follows the rhythm of the Moon, taking into account that in the 14 days
of the growing phase they must be more open to the world and to all those
around them, while in the 14 days of the waning phase they must remain
more reserved and introverted, listening more carefully to their body and
how it responds to emotional and physical stimuli.
In any case, you must carefully observe your skin and take care
of your diet , paying attention to the effects it produces on the body,
observing the parts that become drier and redder, massaging them with
creams or other ingredients that every popular culture recommends.
Grandmothers and mothers must become valuable counselors, having
achieved greater experience and ability to identify symptoms and take
action to remedy them.
Finally, it would be advisable for each woman to prepare her own
playlist, recording the music she wishes to listen to during the
ceremony and subsequently during relaxation.
This ceremony should also be performed by men, to let them enter the lunar
rhythms (13 Moons) and allow their female part to expand and harmonize
with the male and solar part, which follows the rhythm of the equinoxes and
solstices (4 × 3).

CHAPTER 17: HOW TO
CELEBRATE ESBAT
The combination MOON AND WITCH is a winning and absolutely
natural combination. Witches perpetuate an ancient wisdom also linked to
the various phases of the Moon that affect all living beings.
THE MOON IS ENERGY THAT TRANSFORMS, THE
MOTHER AND SISTER OF THE WITCH. The Moon shows us 3
of her wonderful faces and always hides one of them from us. ESBATs are
very important moments for a witch and all witches do something different
than usual these days, which represented by the various phases. The farmers
who follow it to carry out sowing and harvest at the best time also know
this well.
We always celebrate with the same gratitude since the Moon, with its ever-
changing energy, follows and supports us during all our rituals.
THIS IS THE ESBAT: THE CELEBRATIONS
IN HONOR OF THE MOON.
The important thing is to celebrate with pure spirit, open, receptive
and be truly happy in the heart.
She welcomed us into her arms when we decided to cross the threshold of
the oath or initiation, she listens to us when we speak to her and we entrust
our thoughts to her, even the darkest ones, to console us. Celebrate therefore
the cycle of the rebirth of the moon, or witches, because by doing so, our
inner energy will be always greater.
RESPECT NATURE AND WHAT LIVES IN IT
AND YOU WILL BE HIGHLY REWARDED
T he 3 M others , that is, the Crescent Moon called "the young", the Full
Moon called "the mature" and the Waning Moon called "the elderly", are
the classic representations of the 3 lunar phases depicted with female faces,
as the moon is associated always to the woman who, with her cycle of 28
days, is equal to the Lunar cycle. It is associated with water, necessary for
life. The Moon creates the tides with its force of attraction. The cup and the
rose are its symbols. Each phase of the moon has its own power. It
increases, creates or breaks in a positive or negative sense. In magic
everything is originally "pure", each term is emptied of the purely human
meanings of "good" and "evil", wickedness and goodness, which exist and
have value only for the human being who creates them.
M agic , and even more so, natural witchcraft, is in itself a clean practice
that can change expression according to the feelings of those who put it into
practice. Witchcraft is not bad if the practitioner is not. Everything has two
sides. Fire is used to heat and cook but if it escapes our control it is capable
of destroying. Water is a source of life but, in excess it too can kill.
THE FIRST MOTHER IS THE YOUNG BRIDE
During the first quarter, which goes from the new moon to the first quarter,
rituals are performed to give them a strong push and the results of all the
operations that are performed will be decidedly immediate. In this phase the
Moon is increasing its volume and therefore it is excellent for rituals related
to health, love, friendship, luck and charm. It is a good time to start a
project, to attract news and increase even in the workplace and to conceive
a child. In the second growing quarter, which goes from the first quarter to
the full moon, the energy of the Moon is used for all expansion operations,
to give power to things in order to increase their results, of any kind.
THE SECOND MOTHER IS THE MATURE LADY
In this period of the full moon, any type of ritual can be carried out because
we are in the phase of its full power and its maximum splendor. It is the
Moon suitable for all the jobs we want to see resolved and concretized in a
short time. It is conducive to meditation, to the practices of affirming one's
power and to make oneself more charged and stronger.
THE THIRD MOTHER IS ELDERLY AND WISE
In the third quarter, which goes from the Full Moon to the Last Quarter,
when the moon begins to descend in a waning phase, it is possible to carry
out operations of removal, to banish enemies and to break up obstacles. It is
the right phase for those who want to put an end to something, an addiction,
for dark works and to remove negative energies. In the Last Fourth, when
the Moon slowly slips into darkness to become New, rites of destruction,
decisive removal of troublesome people and of disintegration are
performed. It is also a good time to dedicate to the rituals called "occult
sowing", for all long-term projects. It corresponds to the black phase in
alchemy (nigredo or putrefactio) which always precedes rebirth and
renewal. It is in this phase that the initiation rites are performed precisely
because the moon is renewed and reborn and the initiate does so with her.
In the N ovilunio (New Moon) the Fourth Dark Mother appears and all
those rituals aimed at destruction and damage are performed, to banish
problems, obstacles, and to defend oneself from occult damage. In this
phase they perform rites to honor the souls of the dead. The New Moon is
called the Moon of changes and turns. It is in this moment that rituals put in
place bear their first fruits, suddenly and quickly. The New Moon always
brings achievements, changes and transformations.
W hen two NEW MOONS occur in a month , the second is called BLACK MOON .
In
this phase all the strength that is expressed during the waning phases and
the new moon is accentuated. The rituals that can be carried out are the
same as those described for these phases but now they are much more
incisive and effective. Beware: handle with care because this is the realm of
ECATE the fourth dark mother.
T he E sbat are the rituals linked to the M oon , moments of
celebration of the Goddess and her energy which, in fact, correspond to the
phase of the Full Moon.
1 - Wolf Moon - January Esbat
Also called Winterfell Moon, Silent Moon, Ice Moon, Old Moon, Snow
Moon, Cold Moon. The wolf is often seen in this period when food is
scarce, nature faces the coldest and hardest period of the whole year. Great
strength is required to survive the rigors of the season, and while nature
falls into winter sleep, man too continues the journey into his interior. This
is the moment in which we must resort to patience, to know how to await
the right time for everything with tenacity. It is a good time to make plans,
study evolutions and lay the foundations without which no project can ever
be realized. The cold winter, the inner phase of the year, in which very little
is manifested, does not prevent us from expanding our great need for
affection and love and remembering the sweet and serene world of
childhood. Like animals that hide in the heat of the den, we too can
recognize our need for human warmth, accepting our frailties and
recognizing that we need others. We follow the example of the wolf, which
despite being a lone animal in some respects, finds the warmth and strength
necessary to face the hardships of winter, only within its pack. We can
celebrate the Wolf Moon by wearing something dark red, burning candles
of the same color and the incense of the full moon made up of anise,
lavender and rosemary.
2 - Ice Moon - February Esbat
Also called Immaculate Moon, Purification Moon, Chaste Moon, Storm
Moon, Wild Moon, Hunger Moon. Nature rests under the cloak of snow and
prepares a new life. We are still in the heart of winter, but the days are
already longer and despite the frost, the first signs of life are already
appearing, the first snowdrops are seen and the hibernating animals awaken
to evaluate whether to continue sleeping. It is a suitable time for
purification, be it physical, spiritual or emotional. It is time to renew
ourselves and look towards the spring that awaits us. The rites linked to this
celebration have a strong purifying and protective character, they remind us
that it is necessary to defend life, which is timidly reappearing in the world.
Resisting this month is the last effort before the expected arrival of the new
season. We can celebrate the Ice Moon by wearing something white,
burning candles of the same color and sage. We put white flowers in our
homes, asking the immaculate moon to make our existence better, we write
our personal prayer on a sheet of white paper and entrust it to a course of
running water or burn it in the flame of the candle, to make it fulfill the
requests.
3 - Moon of the seed - Esbat of March
This is the Moon of the Renewal, it is a moment of regeneration and of true
awakening under the natural and spiritual profile. Spring is returning,
Nature is awakening and our hearts must also rejoice after the long winter,
the reign of Saturn. The seed opens in the earth, a new life is born: it is a
moment of balance between dark and light, the eternal opposites that in this
period have the same duration, in perfect harmony. It is the beginning of a
new cycle, the seed is about to become a flower: a period of regeneration
and true awakening begins. It is time to dedicate ourselves to sowing also in
our spirit, to stir old moods and prepare ourselves for the new future
harvest. Let's regenerate: it is the right moment to renew our life, our
thoughts, dreams, relationships, loves and friendships, revitalizing even
what has lost its vigor.
In this new season there is the ancient custom of "spring cleaning", which is
much more than just physical work: we free the house from everything that
represents the old and the useless,
We clear our environment of the problems and negativity of the past months
and prepare it for the new season. It is good that all movements, including
washing the floor or dusting, are done in a clockwise direction, to fill the
house with constructive energy. We can celebrate the seed moon by wearing
something green, burning candles of the same color and the incense of the
full moon, composed of anise, lavender and rosemary. We put pots of the
first flowering plants of spring in our homes, and we bless the seeds that
will later be placed in the ground: the moon of the sowing brings with it
fruitful energies to all crops that will thus be able to give excellent flowers
and fruits.
4 - Moon of the gems - Esbat of April
Also known as the Moon of the Hare, Moon of the Buds, Moon of the
Grass, Moon of the Eggs. The energies of this Moon set everything in
motion and growth. We are entering the month radiated by the sun and its
fruitful energy. Day by day the light increases rapidly
In nature it is the moment of germination that contains within itself the vital
force and enthusiasm for the life that is about to be reborn. Precisely
because of this upheaval of nature, this moon causes mood changes: calm
and emotional impulses can coexist within a few days. Our intentions and
passions emerge, so we can take advantage of this period to take care of
ourselves and our projects. Let us allow ourselves to be invaded by the light
of this moon, cultivate and fertilize the garden of the soul, like our garden.
We celebrate this Esbat by wearing something green or pink, burning
candles of the same color and the full moon incense composed of anise,
lavender and rosemary, dancing happily in a circle: we will feel the life
vibrating in our hearts and we will activate our inner fire, starting our
projects and translating our intentions into concrete actions.
5 - Moon of the Flower - Esbat of May
Also called Moon of the Couple, Moon of Flowers, Bivalent Moon, Happy
Moon, Milk Moon, Shining Moon. In May, the month of pleasures, all of
nature seduces us with its beauty and perfumes, while the already hot sun
caresses our skin with its soft and enveloping rays, without however
burning us. This Moon is important because it honors the marriage of the
God and the Goddess and their union on Earth, their love and joy are
reflected on the earth: the flowers bloom, the branches of the trees are filled
with green leaves, the winds and the spring rains subside, giving way to
blue skies and the warmth of the sun. This is the time when two become
one, when all things meet their opposite in perfect balance and perfect
harmony. The sustenance, material and spiritual, for all living beings arises
from the divine union between God and the Goddess. This is one of the
most powerful moons of the year for the witch. It is a moment in which
even the impossible becomes possible. We let feelings and emotions,
enthusiasm and hope explode within us. We can celebrate this moon by
wearing something bright in color, burning candles of gold or silver, yellow
or gray color and jasmine incense. We leave a corner of the garden or a vase
completely uncultivated for the fairies to cultivate it and so that their
presence can bless all our harvest.
6 - Honeymoon - June Esbat
Called Mead Moon, Horse Moon, Sun Moon, Strawberry Moon, Aerra
Litha (Before Litha). Nature is in full splendor, it is strong and close to its
maturity, the gardens are in bloom and the fruits are ready for harvesting.
The June Moon is a moon of joy and change. The warm and fragrant air,
together with the days that are getting longer, invite you to move, travel,
change and make new acquaintances. The June Moon is also called the
Mead Moon because in ancient times, with the honey produced in May,
through a fermentation process similar to that of wine, this very sweet
nectar, rich in magic, was produced. This full moon exudes protective and
strengthening energy. It is the right time to work on yourself, on your
shortcomings, to make decisions or take responsibility. It’s a period
dedicated to the collection of flowers and herbs for love talismans. We can
celebrate by wearing something amber like honey, burning yellow or orange
candles and pure incense.
7 - Harvest Moon - July Esbat
Also called the Grass Moon, the Deer Moon, the Plowing Moon, the Hay
Moon, the Blessed Moon, the Blood Moon, the Thunder Moon. The fruits
are now ripe and Nature takes a break. This is the period in which herbs are
charged with solar energy and reach their maximum potential, they stand
tall, ripe, full of flowers and fruits: it is therefore a good time to harvest and
store them. Likewise, during this Moon our spiritual harvests begin, our
receptivity is more sensitive and divination is clearer. You will discover
marvelous aspects of one's interior, hitherto unknown, aspects that will
make magical practice more powerful. The Harvest Moon favors relaxation
and mental distension, the works of meditation, divination, dream
receptivity and the beginning of objectives regarding our spiritual path. We
can celebrate it by wearing something orange, burning candles of the same
color and incense made up of three herbs: lavender, sage and rosemary.
8 - Moon of Wheat - Esbat of August
Also called Moon of Disputes, Moon of Sturgeon, Moon of Barley,
Contrary Moon, Weodmanath (month of vegetation). The sun dominates
this time of the year, the generosity of nature has reached the completion of
an agricultural cycle and we can enjoy the fruits of our harvest. The
ancients called this Esbat the Barley Moon, a moment to contemplate the
eternity of life: at its core the cereal holds the mysteries and cycles of life,
death and rebirth. Each seed is the product of the primary cereal. In the
gardens, fields and orchards we see abundance, opulence, positivity and joie
de vivre, and these are the feelings that accompany us in this moon of
sharing and rest. It is time for both material and spiritual harvest and we can
celebrate it by wearing something brown or golden yellow, burning candles
of the same color and patchouli incense, decorating the table with ears of
wheat, eating wheat biscuits and drinking beer. We burn together with the
incense, thank you cards, one for each person who is no longer alive, who
affected us very concretely and emotionally in life.
9 - Harvest Moon - September Esbat
Also called Moon of Songs, Moon of Harvest, Moon of Wine, Moon of
Rice, Moon of Mulberry, Moon of Freshness, Moon of Acorns. This moon
corresponds to a period dedicated to rest, to a moment of meditation and
taking stock. The Goddess of the seasons has now given its fruits and is
preparing for a well-deserved rest, the night begins to lengthen and the days
are visibly shortened. It is an ideal time to preserve the fruits that Nature
has given, to reflect on the continuity of life and the cyclical nature of the
seasons. It is a moment to live without any regrets or sadness, but with a
sense of satisfaction, fullness and well-being. We have before our eyes the
fruit of what we have sown and we can finally enjoy it with serenity. The
masculine and feminine elements of our personality need to express
themselves in the same way and this is the right time to bring into our life a
harmonious balance like that which reigns in nature, reflecting on the sense
of transformation that pervades us in this phase of new initiation. This
moon is a very auspicious time for the preparation of protective amulets for
the winter season. Grapes are the symbol of the adept: the harvest, the rest
in the barrels and the transformation into wine, is the path that our spirit
must also follow. We can celebrate by wearing something lavender, burning
candles of the same color and mugwort incense.
10 - Moon of the leaves - Esbat of October
Also called Moon of the hunt, Moon of Songs, Moon of Blood, Moon of the
Changing Season, Moon of Dying Grass. This is a transition moon, it
teaches us how in the cycle of nature, there is a sense of profound harmony
and justice: death is necessary for a new life to be born, we are about to
witness the great final transformation. The season is still mild and you have
to enjoy it, making the sounds and smells our own, walking in the woods
and letting ourselves go to introspection, in search of inner balance. The
October moon is also called the hunting moon, since it was originally
dedicated to prey animals, their spirit was remembered, and they were
thanked for the nourishment they gave to man with their death. Even today
this moon is dedicated to wild animals, we reflect on their characteristics
and dedicate a thought of gratitude and love to them. Plants and vegetables
should also be thanked: every time we pick a fruit or eat a vegetable, we
must reflect on the fact that that too is a life that is interrupted for our
sustenance. We can celebrate this Moon by wearing something red, burning
candles of the same color and cinnamon and nutmeg incense. It is a good
omen to decorate the table with pumpkins, apples and autumn leaves,
drinking red wine, burning lemon peels to invoke protection. We prepare
red bags containing apple seeds, very suitable for love spells. Let's light a
red candle to thank the animal and plant world, then put it on a window sill
in honor of all the creatures who have sacrificed their lives.
11 - Snow Moon - November Esbat
Also called Mad Moon, Dark Moon, Ancestral Moon, Fog Moon, Beaver
Moon. After having given all its energy, the now stripped nature prepares to
rest and thus the Earth Goddess also rests together with God in a spiritual
union. Autumn is the season of the great transformation: the darkest and
coldest months of the year are about to reach us, nature goes to sleep to
recover new energy for the year that will begin, a cycle closes, waiting to
start over. Nature invites us to introspection and reflection on the final
phase of life; death, which is a necessary time for a new rebirth. This Esbat
is a propitious moment to practice the divinatory arts, because it is a phase
of transition and encounter between past, present and future. The energy of
this moon is one of transformation, of spiritual connection with the divine,
of reflection and preparation for new cycle. We can celebrate the snow
moon by wearing something dark blue or black, burning purple candles and
mugwort incense. We put garlic and onions on our table and drink red wine.
To resolve all outstanding issues, we put three cloves of garlic and a rock
crystal in a small bag.
12 - Cold Moon - December Esbat
Also called Oak Moon, Moon of the Long Nights, Moon of the Great
Winter, Moon of the Bare Trees. The oak has always represented the
masculine aspect of Divinity and the natural flow between the physical and
spiritual world. The trunk and branches grow and stretch towards the sky,
while the roots sink into the occult regions of the underworld. Like the oak,
our existence expands into two worlds, Mother Earth this season has
stripped herself of all her ornaments and our attention turns to the essence
of things, to spirituality. We are part of a single organism that renews itself
every season and just as the time of darkness is about to end, so too we can
prepare ourselves for a rebirth, which has its peak in the winter solstice,
when the child Sun God who accompanies us, is born in a new cycle of
renewal. Let's get in touch with our inner light, the bearer of hope and trust.
Under the chill of nature, the vital seed of rebirth is present. It is the full
moon closest to the winter solstice and invites us to dedicate ourselves to
the family, to the loved ones and those closest to us: this will help us
strengthen our mind and focus our spiritual path. We can celebrate by
wearing something yellow, burning white or yellow candles and the incense
of the full moon made up of anise, lavender and rosemary. We tie branches
of mistletoe and holly to the candles and let them burn, giving them
everything we want to eliminate from the old year.
13 - Blue Moon
It is a special Esbat and is called "variable moon" because it is the thirteenth
moon of the year and always falls at a different time. The 28-day lunar
cycle is different from that of the solar calendar, which varies from 28 to 31
days. Even in ancient times the blue moon was the fourth full moon in a
season that contained four. Normally a season has only three, hence the
exceptional character of this Moon which is a reference point for one's
goals and for their verification. The blue moon does not always fall at the
same time, it is charged with power and is suitable for divination and the
most powerful spells. It is celebrated with great dances and songs,
launching thoughts of gratitude and calls of love. When it shows itself to us
twice in a month, which happens on average every 2-3 years, it fills our
hearts with joy, we enrich ourselves with its energy like a baby sucks
nourishment from its mother. We feel free to follow the heart and we do it
with great enthusiasm because it is a moon that does not show up often, but
it is mysterious and powerful and seems to watch over us. We can celebrate
it by burning silver or white candles and pure incense. It is a good omen to
drink water from a cup in which it is reflected, remaining silent and sending
her messages of love.

CHAPTER 18: MAGIC PLANTS
AND THE MOON
THE MOON AFFECTS OUR WHOLE LIFE,
ESPECIALLY WHEN WE TRY TO LIVE IN
SYMBIOSIS WITH NATURE, RESPECT FOR
NATURE AND CYCLES BECOMES
CENTRAL.
The moon often becomes the protagonist also in the magical garden,
because it regulates the sowing , harvesting and growth of
herbs.
D epending on the phase of the moon in which we find
ourselves, some activities are favored over others and in order to be able to
perfectly connect, plants have always been a valid ally.
Here is a short list of plants to use in lunar enchantments.
SAGE
Ideal for promoting clairvoyance, purification, intuition and
divination, it is said that eating a leaf promotes divination and
purification.
WILD FENNEL
Perfect for working with the heart because it opens its eye.
If hung in front of the door of a house on a waning moon it
drives away evil spirits.
Also perfect as a shield against evil influences and for protection.
MILK THISTLE
Perfect for realizing intentions and making them manifest.
It helps to eliminate fear and makes you more courageous and

CONCLUSIONS AND FINAL TIPS
Each witch creates her own spell or adapts others to her needs, if the
situation requires it.
Each spell must be performed with the utmost concentration and
dedication, taking care not to be disturbed by anyone!!
Therefore, my advice as a friend, TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE PHONES
AND DISCONNECT THE DOORBELL!!! For a while, dedicate yourself
completely to what you are doing.
More very wise advice that the ancient wizards have passed down to the
present day is: "CAST A SPELL AND THEN FORGET ABOUT
IT". There is nothing more counterproductive to the rite itself than our
negativity in continuing to ask ourselves: "WHO KNOWS IF IT
WILL WORK? " or "WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG? " or
"MAYBE IT WON'T HELP ".
LET US ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT A
SPELL LIVES ON OUR HOPES AND
POSITIVE ENERGIES!
If we are the first to be "negative" we will certainly undermine the success
of our rite. Let it take its course without unnecessary torment!
As a rule (even if I don't like giving the times in Magic very much, let's
remember that Magic is SUBJECTIVE and varies from person to person) a
spell leads to its realization in about 31 days or after the completion of the
lunar cycle, even if this varies according to the ritual and what we desire
from the ritual itself.
T ime must not be taken into consideration , especially in
esotericism! Time is something that human beings have "invented" and
certainly not nature which, as we know, has a completely different timing
from that of humans. The one shown is simply an indication.
Whenever you want to transfer an influx of energy to formulate rituals or
purifications, you also need to know which candles to use (what color, long
or short) and on which days to operate.
SUNDAY: It is associated with the sun; the most suitable colors (for the
candles used in the ritual, for example) are Gold, Yellow and Orange. It is
also a suitable day for divination.
MONDAY: Associated with the moon and the colors White, Gray and Pearl.
Excellent day for all spiritual and High Magic goals (such as
mysticism in general, meditations, "astral travel", the emotional
health of the person, but also purifications, divinations, obtaining
"advice" and "enlightenment" coming from other "levels" of
existence (various entities, according to your beliefs).
TUESDAY : Associated with Mars and with the colors Red, Pink and Orange.
Day suitable for topics relating to courage, action, physical energy,
sex, but also anything that needs strength or initial stimulation. To be
done on a waning moon if they are positive propitiatory rituals. I
would not recommend it for love rituals as it could lead to temporary
"upheavals" and create tension.
WEDNESDAY : Associated with Mercury and with the colors Purple, Magenta
and Silver. On this day, however, you can also use the color yellow and
orange if you do a ritual at noon (or in the morning) for business.
Suitable for matters relating to the arts, legal matters, communication
of all kinds. You can also use yellow, which is a "dominant" color
that "persuades" the recipient.
THURSDAY : Associated with Jupiter and the colors Blue, Emerald Green
(for rituals on finances), metallic colors in general.
Suitable for all business matters, to obtain greater power, to improve
oneself in any field, to obtain any material goal and luck in general.
For these goals, morning, noon, or the night before midnight are all
appropriate times.
FRIDAY : Associated with the colors pink, white, (sometimes red) and even
green.
Day suitable for sentimental matters, beauty and magnetism,
marriage and family matters, interpersonal relationships.
SATURDAY : Associated with the colors black, gray, (sometimes red) and
white
Day suitable for rituals that eliminate, diminish, remove, drive away,
but also for some protection rites (generally the protection rites
would be done at a crescent moon on other days, but if you want to
remove negativity and protect yourself from it at the same time, this
day, with a waning moon, can be suitable and, if you really want to
take advantage of external energies, at sunset.
E ach phase of the moon has its purpose in M agic and that is
why every ritual, both of Red Magic and White Magic, must be decided in
advance by evaluating in which phase of the moon it is preferable to act.
T he crescent moon phase is the phase that goes from the new moon
to the full moon and lasts 14 days. During this time, it is possible to use her
energy to attract something to or to bond with something; it is in fact
indispensable in the rites of ligament and return of the partner. The energies
of the crescent Moon are also used to consolidate a positive situation and
thus make it stable. This stage is performed in most of the Red and White
Magic rituals aimed at doing good.
T he phase of the full moon , is the final phase of the waxing moon.
In the calendar we find it completely white. This phase of the moon lasts
only 1 day. In this phase the energies of the moon are at their maximum
power; in fact, it operates as in a growing moon.
T he waning moon is the phase that goes from the full moon to the new
moon and also lasts 14 days. During this phase of the moon, rituals are
performed that are suitable for the removal from negativity, separation and
damage. This moon phase is in fact suitable if you want to remove harmful
people or situations from your life. It is used a lot in black magic, that is,
that aimed at evil. Personally, I do not use this moon phase to operate black
magic, but I use it exclusively to remove the evil itself with white magic, if
necessary.
T he phase of the new moon , is the final phase of the waning moon
and lasts only 1 day. In the calendar we find it completely black. In the sky
it is not possible to see it. In this phase the energies are minimal and it is
advisable not to operate, unless the ritual itself requires it.
The moon is not only important for carrying out rituals or
purifications, it can also be useful for watering, doing laundry,
cutting hair, etc.
Crescent moon: any positive or propitiatory ritual
W aning M oon : esoteric ritual that 'eliminates' or 'decreases'. The closer
you are to the 'empty' moon (when you are about to enter a new moon), the
more powerful the ritual; however, only experts can exercise when we are
too close to the new moon (you have to prevent the candle from burning
when you enter the new moon - so you have to do exact calculations and, as
you know, the candles have to burn all the way through).
N ew moon : for each new ritual, to be repeated on a waxing or full moon.
F ull moon : only in cases that require particular strength (always
propitiatory or "positive" rites), but not for beginners.
BE CAREFUL THAT YOU DO NOT ENTER A
WANING MOON IN ANY CASE.
HOW TO STRENGTHEN SPIRITUAL POWER
WITH THE MOON
The full moon is the one that gives us great insight and depth of
knowledge. It almost seems that in the nights of a full moon, as well as
being immersed in its immense energy, the doors of esoteric and spiritual
wisdom are open and our unconscious is connected with the subconscious
and with the soul.
We light some incense in grains mixing it with 3 broken rose petals and a
grated lemon zest. We light a white candle and breathe very slowly letting
ourselves be enveloped by the smoke and concentrating on the breath and
the scent of incense. We try not to create visions or sensations but let
everything come by itself.
HOW TO ABSORB THE POWER OF THE MOON
Go outdoors in direct moonlight with your palms facing the moon, after
about 5 minutes you will begin to feel a warmth or a tingling sensation or a
feeling of heaviness - your hands are absorbing the lunar energy.
Now imagine that from the hands this energy walks up the arms to the
head and slowly descends through the limbs to the feet - it rises on the legs
expanding in the back and trunk up to the head and descends to the hands.
