Tides are the rise and fall of the Oceanโs sea level which is employed by the combined gravitational forces of the Sun and Moon. The times of which when a certain tide could take place is heavily influenced by the alignment of the Sun and Moon upon the earth, such as when the Moon is at its first or third quarter. When this happens the Sun and the Moon form a 90 degree angle and cause a special tide called a neap tide. To add to that when the Moon and the Sun form a straight line they create another special tide called a spring tide.
The difference between these two are quite simple
A Spring tide occurs when there is a full or new moon and at these times the high tides are at their highest, while the low ones are at their lowest.
While when there is a neap tide the tides are at the weakest.
High and low tides on the other hand are created when the Moon rotates and creates a big bulge of water on both sides of the planet facing outward. This bulge is called a high tide and moves along with the moon while the second bulge on the other side follows it. The water that is left over is called low tide, so depending on what tides will come in your area determines where the Moon is at.
Flood/Flow: ย To bring anything towards you
High Tide: ย For any positive workings
Ebb: ย To bring anything away from you
Low Tide: ย For any negative workings
Spring Tide: ย Causes tidal magick to be stronger
Neap Tide: ย Causes tidal magick to be weaker
Some shorelines experience two of the same tides per day while some only have a pair of one each day. Though it is quite possible to have a range a mixed tides in your area also.
