Waxing Moon - Maiden Moon, moving from Dark to Full phase - used for magicks of increase
Full - Mother Moon fully illuminated - influence felt three days before and three days after - magicks of completion, success, gains, accomplishment
Waning - Crone Moon moving from Full to Dark phase - used for magicks of decrease
New - Crone Moon at last sliver of crescent to Dark - used for magicks of banishing, exorcism, cleansings
Dark - Drone as Mystery Moon totally non-illuminated - used for divinations and meditations - used for Dark Power Magicks - Hidden Face of the Goddess as the One Who Transforms - the Womb as the Tomb, hence, passage to Rebirth
Moon Void- of-Course - passing from one Sign and entering into another (look in a Magickal, Lunar or Farmer's Almanac) - can be between one to four hours - holds the influence of both signs in balance - unfavorable for magickal activities - activities begun rarely are completed - activities begun may end, but not as expected/desired - Rule of Thumb, influence of a Moon phase lasts three days
Ground and Center before all Magickal Work: to avoid depleting personal energy levels by augmenting internal energies.
Ground again after all Magickal Work: to avoid overload of personal energy levels by draining out the excess energies.
Change another's Spell slightly so it is Yours: to make the energy generated recognize it connects to work with you specifically.
