The eight phases and their advice

New Moon

SOWING · BARE INTENT

  • Write a fresh statement of intent and turn it into a sigil.
  • Banish the space before you start: make room, don't add to it.
  • Quiet gnosis, meditation in the dark, prolonged silence.
  • Write down what you want to bring into being, and tell no one.

Avoid instant results and impatient checking: nothing is visible yet.

Waxing Crescent

MOMENTUM · FIRST MOVE

  • Charge the sigil you just made with a short, repeated gesture.
  • Take the first concrete step toward the intent, even a tiny one.
  • Attraction rituals: opportunities, encounters, learning.
  • Feed a freshly evoked servitor with a daily action.

Avoid re-defining the intent: you've already sown, now tend it.

First Quarter

FRICTION · DECISION

  • Face the obstacle that showed up: it's the intent's stress test.
  • Will-work: inhibitory gnosis or controlled hyperventilation.
  • Cut a distraction: a chosen, declared renunciation.
  • Review the operative plan, not the desire itself.

Avoid reading friction as failure.

Waxing Gibbous

AMPLIFY · REFINE

  • Amplify: repeat the rite with more energy and less thinking.
  • Refine the details, correct your aim, cut the excess.
  • Great time for persuasion, art and communication work.
  • Prepare the climax: decide what you'll do at the full moon.

Avoid scattering energy across too many parallel intents.

Full Moon

PEAK · MAXIMUM CHARGE

  • Main operation of the cycle: maximum intensity, maximum gnosis.
  • Divination, oracles, automatic writing, visions.
  • Charge water, objects, talismans and sigils under the moonlight.
  • Invocations and evocations: the threshold is wide, stay lucid.

Avoid emotional excess and irreversible decisions made in euphoria.

Waning Gibbous

HARVEST · GRATITUDE

  • Gather the results: note in your grimoire what has changed.
  • Share, teach, give back: spend the excess energy.
  • Consolidate habits born in this cycle.
  • Forget the sigil: the lust of result must be released now.

Avoid starting big new operations.

Last Quarter

RECKONING · CUTTING

  • Dissolve spent servitors according to their dissolution conditions.
  • Break a bond, close a debt, declare an ending.
  • Deep banishing: pentagram ritual or space cleansing.
  • Coldly analyse what didn't work and why.

Avoid clinging to what this cycle is closing.

Waning Crescent

DISSOLUTION · VOID

  • Operative rest: a magic fast, silence, deep sleep.
  • Destroy old notes, used sigils and images you no longer need.
  • Tidy up the grimoire and close the cycle in writing.
  • Prepare the void for the next new moon: don't fill it.

Avoid new commitments: the tide is going out.
