Moon Magick

The Moon for Witches is the most important heavenly body held within the universe. We continuously call on Her powers for magick ,concerning the Lunar and astral arts. Witches for as long as there has been time, have cast their spells in harmony with her cycles. The Moon seen as the female energy and/or Goddess inspires us to dream of all the possible as she illuminates our way.

She is unceasing and diligent, likened unto Her daughters. Women pass through the changes of life by her cycles. With Her we see ourselves from the �Maiden�, fresh and new seeking all life has to give, as "Mother", giving birth to new possibility�s, to the "Crone", carrying the wisdom of life and knowledge. She is seen as a Changing Woman.

"The center within the Wheel of Life is the Moon as She continues on Her never ending course."
