About MOON MAGICK
Introduction to Moon Magick
The moon has been a source of inspiration and guidance for centuries, reflecting the rhythms of nature and life itself. By working with the moon phases, you can harness its energy to set intentions, manifest goals, and release what no longer serves you. At Modern Magickal Family, we teach you how to connect with the moon’s cycles through simple rituals, practices, and family-friendly activities that bring magick into your everyday life.
Understanding the Moon Phases
The moon phases are a powerful guide for living a more intentional and magical life. Each phase of the Moon carries its own unique energy, offering us a dynamic cycle to align with for manifestation. The New Moon invites new beginnings and setting intentions, while the Waxing Moon is ideal for building momentum and attracting growth. The Full Moon illuminates our goals, amplifying manifestation energy, and the Waning Moon encourages release and reflection. By recognizing the energies each phase offers and knowing when to harness them, the Moon becomes a powerful tool to manifesting our ideal life,
Monthly Moons
Every month brings a unique energy and astrological sign that will make your manifestations even more powerful. This added layer of focus helps you tailor your manifestations, enhancing their power by syncing with the celestial and seasonal influences shaping that moment. From the introspective energy of the Wolf Moon in January to the abundant gratitude of the Harvest Moon in September, this series provides rituals, meditations, and activities to align your intentions with the moon’s phases and the astrological influences of the season.

Understanding the Phases of the Moon
The Moon's Astrological Sign
Each Moon (and its phase) falls under a particular astrological sign, which moves through all of the zodiac signs during that lunar cycle. As the moon travels through the zodiac, there are different and unique energies that impact the Moon along with us humans. It’s important to consider the sign that the moon falls in when planning rituals, spells, and other magickal workings. With each of these placements, it provides a direction and focus for us in planning the best way to harness that energy for our intentions and manifestations.
New Moon
The New Moon marks the beginning of the lunar cycle. Contrary to popular belief, it is actually when the moon is 1% luminated in the sky (not when it is completely dark). So the New Moon is actually a day after it is stated in any astrological calendars, almanacs, or moon phase apps.
The energy of the New Moon is all about new beginnings, setting intentions, and planting the seeds for the future. When you are setting your intentions for the New Moon and the accompanying lunar cycle, it is important to be as specific as possible about the goals you wish to achieve or what you desire to accomplish. The more details that you include, the easier it will be for the universe to manifest that specific intention or desire.
Full Moon
The Full Moon comes right in the middle of the lunar cycle (about two weeks after the New Moon). The Full Moon is a time when the moon is at its most powerful, radiating its peak energy and illuminating the night sky in its full brilliance, making it the perfect time to manifest your desires and amplify the intentions you set during the New Moon. The Full Moon’s energy is potent and can supercharge your goals, helping you align with your deepest aspirations and release anything holding you back.
You can work with the Full Moon’s energy for three days—the day before, the day of, and the day after—allowing for a flexible window to harness its magickal influence through rituals, meditations, or celebrations. It’s a time to embrace your power, connect with the universe, and watch your dreams take shape.
