Please note that posts on this website may contain affiliate links

In witchcraft, the crescent moon is very sacred. The moon represents the divine feminine and symbolizes feminine power, intuition, psychic visions and creation. Witches love working with the phases of the moon, so let’s learn more about the two crescent moons in the lunar cycle.

The waning crescent is used to banish evil energy that resides in a person or situation. It is also used to end relationships, break spells, and remove hexes while starting something new. It is also used to help you remember things.

The waxing crescent represents a time of new beginnings. This is a time when you should start new projects or embrace new things in your life. As the moon fills up during this time, you will have the energy to complete projects and have a fresh start in life.

What the waning crescent moon represents

The waning crescent refers to endings; the closing of doors, the end of a relationship, and the end of the magic you previously cast. It can also refer to holding on to something that is no longer worth holding on to. It is said to be used to banish spells and close doors when there is bad luck, bad health, or bad relationships.

It means “reduction”, lowering of a state of power, lack of power, movement and endings. The waning crescent is a time when things become more focused and segmented.

In dreams, a waning crescent represents endings and that which is no longer useful. It brings up feelings of sadness when we have to let go of things as time passes and changes in our waking selves.
