Feeling weighed down by old patterns?

Witches know that the Waning Gibbous Moon is the perfect time to finally let go. Traditionally linked to the Crone aspect of the Goddess, this period invites deep reflection, purification, and the cutting of ties that no longer serve you. It's also a great opportunity to express gratitude for the lessons learned and the progress made. Use this phase to clean house and set the stage for postive change.

🕰️ Phase Duration: 4~6 days

🧙‍♀️ Ritual for Banishing Negative Attachments 🧙‍♀️

🕯️ Start with a black or gray candle—these colors are perfect for releasing and protection. Pair it with Amethyst for clarity and Obsidian for grounding. You can also (always) use a Black Tourmaline for protection.

🪄 Cast a circle to create a sacred space for your ritual and light your candle. Focus on the negative influences or habits you want to banish from your life. Picture them as weights tied to you and dragging you down.

Write down each of thes burdens on a piece of paper. Hold it and chant this incantation 3 times with intent:

🔥 By the waning Moon’s glow I release what must go As the flame burns These cords dissolve I am complete, I am free, New energy is called to me 🔥

Burn the paper in the candle’s flame and watch your troubles turn to smoke and dissolve. Scatter the ashes near a big plant or a tree, or bury them, as a final goodbye.

Close your ritual by thanking the energies supporting you and reflect on the space you’ve cleared for new, positive growth. 🌿

Hello lovely witches and magickal creatures 💫

The Last Quarter, or Third Quarter Moon, is a powerful time for final closures and concrete actions to end what no longer serves us, and clear out stubborn old habits or situations definitively. 🧹

This phase is distinct from the earlier waning phase as it calls not only for gradual releasing from negative influences, but for cementing those decisions with definitive actions and making sure there’s no turning back.

🕰️ Phase Duration: 2~3 days

🧙‍♀️ Suggested Rituals:

This is a period for deeper introspection and reflection on what truly must be removed from your life. It’s the perfect time for cycle-ending spells that ensure readiness for the new beginnings the New Moon will bring.

Consider cord-cutting spells to sever emotional ties, cleansing rituals using sage or salt to purify your space, and banishing negativity through focused visualizations or affirmations.

💫 Blessed be 💫

Mabon, one of the eight Sabbats in the Wheel of the Year, marks the second harvest and the Autumn Equinox 🍁

a time of balance, as day and night are of equal length.

This sacred moment invites us to reflect on the harmony between light and dark ☯️ both in nature and within ourselves.

Traditionally, pagans and witches honor this time by giving thanks for the harvest’s abundance, while also preparing for the darker half of the year.

And just as the leaves fall and the days shorten, we are reminded of the natural cycle of release and renewal,

a powerful time for both physical and spiritual healing.

By attuning to the Earth’s rhythms, we open ourselves to the magick of transformation that comes with embracing the natural flow of life. 🍂

Mabon's Blessings to you magickal beings! 💜🧡
