The New Moon and its meaning.

Each moon phase has its own energy and its own power. When spell-casting, aligning them with the moon phases can make the spell more powerful. The moon is said to effect the Earth in special ways, not only the control of the tides but it is said to effect the emotions of humans and animals.

The New Moon is when the moon has done a full cycle and starts all over again. So it makes sense to say the new moon is about new beginnings and good growth.
During a new moon many pagans, wiccans and witches use this time to do spell casting linked with growth, optimism among other similar things but also to make new moon wishes.

Writing down your wishes is a good way of reflecting on things in your life and your past from this point. Wishing for certain things can depend on what has been happening in your life or can reflect on feelings or emotions that you have felt recently.

It is helpful to write wishes down every new moon if you can as some will be more potent for you than others, depending on your individual birth chart. Making a wish every new moon gives you the opportunity to make the wish at the strongest and most potent times for you. Keep repeating wishes until they are true.

Don't make wishes that affect other peoples behaviour instead reflect on what you really want and see if you can make changes within yourself or a situation that may affect their behaviour in a non direct  way.

Remember to make the wish come from your heart and soul and to believe in it, use the words most comfortable for you, use candles if you wish and make sure you handwrite your wishes as its a lot more personal and magical.

Make your wishes AFTER the exact time of the new moon when the energy has changed from balsamic energy of completion to the new energy of beginning this can be up to 8 hours after but can be made up to 48 hours later.


Remember to be positive and wish for things that you DO want to come true and not things you DON'T want to come true. Send out positive energies and let the Lady Goddess listen.
