Everything Under the Moon

Hi beautiful Wiccan folk. Wondering which is a more important consideration when planning the timing of a spell—best moon phase vs. best day of the week. Say for a love spell, Friday is best, but if Friday falls on a new moon, is it best to wait for a Friday in a more favorable moon phase? Or a dark...

Hello beautiful Wiccan folk. I’ve read about using switchwords, and am curious: after you have written down a switchword to use for a day, what do you do with the paper you wrote it on after the day is over?

Thank you. Did not realize till now you had responded!

amunptah777 how is love a Christian word? I'm sure people were falling in love well before Christianity decided to turn up

Agree totally!

Unity vs separation. The difference is great.

Can you clarify? I don’t know what you mean at all.

Bindings are always cord or knot spells, thus the name. Ah, thank you. I’ve also read that a “binding” spell has the same effect in the spell-caster as it does innthevtarget. That it binds both ways. That would suggest that the spell-caster’s Free will would also be impacted by casting the spell. I...

I guess I meant to say I wondered why some are called "love” and some are called “binding”. Is someone “bound” to the spell-caster whether they love them or not? Cause that doesn’t sound fun at all!

Can someone clarify the difference between a Love spell and a “Binding” spell? I understand they are both considered unethical since they can overrule someone’s free will, but how would you describe the difference?

Sigh. It clouded over again and started pouring. No visibility after it was almost halfway eclipsed.

Yay!! The clouds are clearing now. I can see the eclipse starting.

Still raining here w/thick clouds.

Well poop. Here in the SF area it’s expected to rain and be cloudy. I may not get a good view of it at all.

Ok, thanks. I didn't know if there was a generally accepted definition of the waxing and waning in an eclipse context.

SnowCat, that too. We should have a good view where I am. Unless it’s too clouded over.

Ah, interesting. Thank you. I had thought that when the moon was coming out of its totality, it was like a short, powerful waxing phase. But actually when it’s heading towards its eclipse, then THAT is the waxing phase in the eclipse context? And coming out of its eclipse is waning?
