[glow=red,2,300]The Witches Calendar
Witch time is not necessarily the same as "normal" time...
The first concern of the witch before undertaking a ritual of evocation is the correct use of time. It is possible to finetune the timing of witchcraft by choosing a date and time when the season, astrological configurations, day of the week and phase of the moon are all favourable to the spell you wish to cast. It is also essential to trust your intuition. Do not cast a spell if you feel that the timing is incorrect, as the power of the ritual will be lessened.
The days of the planets and their influences
Sun Sunday Gaining money, finding treasure, harmony, friendship, fortune.
Moon Monday Necromancy, travel over water, visions, love operations.
Mars Tuesday Death, destruction, hatred, discord, chanelling spirits.
Mercury Wednesday Commerce, obtaining knowledge, theft, deceit, fear.
Jupiter Thursday Money, Status, good health.
Venus Friday Ceremonies of lust. love, pleasure, friendships.
Saturn Saturday Injury, death, destruction.
MOON PHASES
Moving with its natural course, through different phases and astrological signs, the moon has a particularly potent effect on witchcraft. Each cycle of the waxing and waning moon spans several days, and by being aware of each phase of the moon, you can add power to each ritual performed.
Dark of the Moon:
From the time the moon is no longer visible to the naked eye until the new moon (known as the dark of the moon) is the most useful time for divination of all kinds.
The New Moon:
This is an exceptional time to do witchcraft for new beginnings, and for the conception and initiation of new projects.
Waxing Moon:
The waxing moon is appropriate for spells that involve growth, healing and increase.
The Full Moon:
Known as the "high tide" of psychic power, The full moon represents culmination, climax, fulfillment and abundance.
Waning Moon:
The waning moon is the best time for cleansing, banishing and completion.
Lucky Dates:
According to the Grand Grimoire (the ancient book of spells that still influence the practice of witchcraft), there are certain days of the year that are considered lucky for the performance of witchcraft.
Unlucky Dates:
Just as there is lucky dates, the Grand Grimoire also cites certain dates as being particularly unlucky for the performance of witchcraft.
Solstice:
Solstice occurs twice a year, in summer and winter, when the sun is at its greatest distance from the celestial equator and does not move either north or south. this point is ideal for performing witchcraft pertaining to the seasons.
Equinox:
Equinox is the time when the sun crosses the plane of the Earth's equator, making night and day all over the earth of equal length. This is the perfect time for performing witchcraft that is beneficial to the universe.
Candlemas:
A Fire Festival to induce the Goddess of Spring to drive away darkness and bring warmth to the soil.
May Eve:
A celebration of the fertility of crops, animals and human beings.
Halloween:
A pagan festival dedicated to the dead.
