The Ebb and Flow of Subtle Currents

On June 20th, 2011 I uploaded my third vlog to YouTube. It was a very simple explanation of the symbolic meaning of each moon phase, including the Full Moon and New Moon. It's less than three minutes long and there is no swearing, vulgarity or anything even remotely controversial yet YouTube has demonetized and shadow banned this video as "Not suitable for most advertisers." The video as well as the complete transcription have been included below if you want to judge for yourself.

The concept behind this video is the very basis for astrology: The idea that the action of celestial bodies has an impact on our lives here on Earth. While I am skeptical about how much of an impact we actually feel from stars that are at least four light years away from us, it is a well established fact that the moon does indeed have a powerful influence on the terrestrial sphere. For one thing, the gravity exerted upon the Earth by the Moon creates the ocean tides. Some believe that the fertility cycle of human women is related to the moon cycle in some way due to the fact that the period of both is roughly the same. Beyond this we also observe an impact on animal (including human) behaviour which some believe can be attributed to the varying levels of natural light at night during different lunar phases. Regardless of the actual mechanisms in play, the moon phases do seem to have a very real impact and I personally believe it can be advantageous to maintain an awareness of the current phase at any given time.

Moon Phases in Magick (Video Transcript)

6.20.2011

Hi.

My name is Jeremy Crow and in this video I'm going to explain a little bit about the meaning of the moon phases in magic, the occult, and daily life.

So there are four phases of the Moon. Starting from the New Moon, which means you can't see the Moon at all. First Quarter (Waxing): It lasts until you can see half the Moon. so it's increasing or waxing, First Quarter and that is a good time for new beginnings, for starting new projects the entire time that is waxing. Waxing Second Quarter is a point where it's halfway to full. That's also a great time for new beginnings. As you get closer and closer to the full moon you get more and more creative energy and any type of magic will usually be enhanced by doing it on the Full Moon itself.

Then you have Third Quarter and Fourth Quarter Waning (which means decreasing.) So the Third Quarter is from full until you can only see half again and then Fourth Quarter is from Half to the New Moon again where you can't see it anymore. Now this is a good time for finishing projects and doing any kind of magic that will remove something from your life.

Also the New Moon, when you can't see the Moon at all. It's another great time to explore some of the Shadow aspects of yourself; to kind of delve into and look into the parts of yourself that you maybe have been denying or trying not to look at. So it's a great time for introspection in general.

The Full Moon is more social and extroverted and the New Moon is more introverted and contemplative. And you can apply this not just to magic or occult workings but to any kind of endeavor in your life. And a lot of people find it quite useful to help organize your time that way.
