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.

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! 💜🧡

Do you feel it too? Like it's frggin' time to relax already after all the intensity and drama? The Waning Crescent moon (duration about 4~5 days) is the last phase in the decreasing moon period. And the final part of this phase - the last visible sliver of the moon, is sometimes referred to as the Balsamic Moon, derived from the Latin word balsamum, meaning "restorative" or "healing", and adopted into the astrological language. This period is connected to introspection, healing, and spiritual preparation.

And according to the ancient traditions, although the Waning Crescent moon still continues the Last Quarter moon’s theme of protection and banishing, and gives an opportunity to clear out any last remnants of negativity and protect oneself as the moon's light fades, this phase indeed focuses more on inner reflection, rest, healing, and preparation.

This quieter energy is about turning inward, connecting with the subconscious, mending old wounds, and preparing spiritually for the rebirth and new beginnings associated with the New Moon.

This aspect of the phase was less about active spellwork and more about spiritual maintenance: Meditation, cleansing, journaling, dreamwork, healing, etc. 🧘‍♀️

Additionally, many witches believe that during this phase, the veil between worlds becomes thinner, making it an ideal time for gaining insights through divination practices like tarot, runes, scrying, intuitive channeling, and more. 🔮

As the Dark Moon nears, nurture your spirit, reflect on your path, and prepare for the New Moon’s renewal. Let the Waning Crescent’s quiet power guide your spiritual journey.

Tomorrow-ish, on September 17-18, the Harvest Moon will rise, accompanied by a partial lunar eclipse and a supermoon. Though not a dramatic full eclipse or a huge supermoon, their influence will definitely be felt.

Eclipses have a way of stirring up what’s hidden beneath the surface. This one in particular, happening in the water sign of Pisces, brings the energy of release, intuition, and heightened emotional awareness. If you’ve felt stuck, uncertain, or off balance, this eclipse may offer the insight you’ve been missing.

What many don’t realize is that lunar eclipses are considered to be up to three times more intense than regular full moons, and the supermoon adds even more to that potency. The effects of this one can ripple for weeks, even months, and might prompt sudden revelations or emotional shifts. This energy can force you to confront things you've been avoiding—whether it’s a limiting belief, an old habit, or a relationship that no longer serves you.

The Harvest Moon traditionally marks a time of reaping what you’ve sown, both literally and metaphorically. But with the eclipse, this “harvest” could bring unexpected realizations or changes that push you toward growth in ways you hadn’t anticipated.

This is a moon that asks you to let go of control. Pisces' energy is about embracing the flow and accepting that sometimes, the most powerful transformations come from surrendering to the process.

How can we work with this energy?

It’s a good time for us witches to focus on cleansing and protection rituals, and to meditate or use divination practices to uncover what’s been lingering in the subconscious.

Use this opportunity to navigate through what you’ve been avoiding, and trust that any truths revealed are meant to guide you toward personal and spiritual growth.
