Moon Magic. The Moon has been essential to life on Earth since the very first cell evolved. It is no wonder that such an important object finds itself central in so many magical rituals and customs. A little-known fact is that all life on Earth revolves around the phases of the Moon. Find out what a Blue Moon is, and why it is so important to life! As the Moon revolves around the Earth it will go through phases depending on the relative locations of the Earth and the Sun. When the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun it will appear black and that is called a New Moon. When the Moon moves to the other side of the Earth it appears as a full Moon, totally illuminated by the Sun.

Charging Items by the Moon Many magical items can be “charged” by the Moon. There are many ways to charge items, but using Moonlight or Starlight are some of the most common and preferred ways. Simply leave the item someplace where the Moonlight will shine on it overnight. This will charge the item. Doing so during a Full Moon or even a Super Moon will charge the item faster and more fully.
