What the phases mean

New Moon — a time of intentions and quiet. Tradition advises against starting important things on the day itself, but it is good for wishes and planning.

Waxing Moon — a time of growth: start things, meet people, invest in the new. Whatever you begin now traditionally gains strength.

Full Moon — the peak of emotions and energy. Good for celebrations and finishing things, but keep important conversations calm: feelings run high.

Waning Moon — a time to finish, clear out and let go: wrap up tasks, get rid of the unnecessary, rest.
