Wish upon a new Moon
For drawing something to you, such as a work opportunity, wish when the Moon is growing, from new to full. The new Moon begins when you can see a silver crescent in the sky.
Wish upon a waning Moon
To release something, such as an illness or a bad relationship, work with the waning Moon phase. This begins on the third day after the full Moon.
A simple wishing spell:
Turning your dreams into reality takes only a little time and effort where magic is concerned. Start practicing your wishing magic with this simple wishing spell to be cast in alignment with the full Moon.
1. Magic Ribbon
Purchase one yard of thin, silver ribbon from a craft or fabric store.
2. Wishing Tree
Choose a tree under whose branches you will wish. You should make your wish during the phase of the full Moon to draw the object of your dreams to you.
3. Give Thanks
When you have made your wish, tie the ribbon loosely but securely around a branch of your wishing tree. Stay for a while to commune and give thanks to your tree.
Elemental Wishing
