New moon ...........

The new moon is sometimes tricky to work with because you can't always see it during this phase - it will appear as a very faint crescent of silver low on the horizon, if you can see it at all. For approximately three days during each lunar cycle, after the moon has waned, it goes dark before waxing again. In many magical traditions, this is considered a fallow time, in which one rests and rejuvenates before beginning more intense magical workings again.

In other traditions, it's a time to do magic related to wish fulfillment. Some examples might include:

Cleansing and purifying of the body and mind.

Rituals that designate sacred space.

Any magic related to inner harmony and peace.
