Waxing Moon

Waxing Moon Image
The Moon now begins her journey to fullness, each night increasing until She forms a 'horned moon', and as the Moon increases, shining ever more brightly on the earth, She symbolizes the eternal rhythm of growth to maturity. This is considered the ideal time for magick geared towards drawing things to you, for attraction, or rituals of increase. These three days are dedicated to Persephone, the initiator.

Initiation or the start of a spiritual journey can be reinforced by connecting to the energy of the waxing Moon, visualizing the seeds planted now germinating and growing a the light of the Moon increases. A ritual performed now can be strengthened and added to throughout this phase. Candles, oils, potions, and herbal preparations made during this time vibrate with the energy of increase, hope, rebirth, and gentle light.

Choose a quiet place to watch the Moon, either during the day as She is rising, or later in the evening as She sails through the night sky. Take some of your favorite incense and, in the evening, a candle to burn. Spend time relaxing and breathing in the Moon's energy.

Feel yourself connecting with Her--imagine your energy flowing up to Her, then flowing from Her to you again, filling you with light. Feel your energy growing as She grows.
