Crows, owls, ravens, snakes, serpents, black cats, moons, cauldrons, deep wells, scissors, knives, keys, skulls, and bones are just some of the imagery that may come to you when you are entering a dark moon phase.

I cast this circle for protection.
No unwanted energies may enter here.
Within this circle we are darkness, we are germination, we are ending and beginnings.
With this I create a sacred space and time.
So mote it be.

Throughout the entire waning moon phase prior to this devotional, pay attention to those things in your life that you wish to change

Do not fear endings or death, because there truly is no such thing. There is only change and transformation.

This is understandable and natural: change is hard. It’s painful. It can feel like your world has been smashed. However, this destruction is exactly what’s necessary to create something new

In conjunction with research, a safe way to get to know deity is to meditate with them.

First, read all about her—history, mythology, modern practice, everything.

Respectfully requesting their presence
• Inviting them into your circle
• Asking them for their blessing
• Thanking them for their presence

Nature works in mysterious, coincidental ways, always in synch, never by accident.

The crow calls on you to explore your dark side, and it will appear to remind you that magick is real.
