Correspondences of the Moon
The phases of the Moon transmit different energies that vary throughout its cycle for our benefit, creating what we call Lunar Magic. Rituals and spells performed during the most suitable lunar phase for their purpose have a much higher chance of success than those that are not aligned.
Take advantage of the Moon’s energy in your rituals and spells!
