When the evidence becomes overwhelming, When author Rich Newman first arrives at the battered doublewide trailer deep in the Mississippi Delta, it’s clear that this is no ordinary haunting. Called from Memphis to assist a local ghost hunting team, long-buried memories from Newman’s own past come back to haunt him—memories he’d rather forget. Collecting physical evidence, researching the violent history of the property, Newman’s investigation of the Martin house has become his most terrifying and mysterious case. What starts out as a malicious assault manifesting as deep rumbling sounds quickly spirals into a story of obsession, and sorting through the spiritual implications of demons
sun and moon is gradually separating instead
of being jointly focused on us like a laser beam. The wax-
ing phase of the moon is an excellent and much preferred
time to work magic toward positive, growth-oriented
goals such as increasing abundance, finding love, gaining
luck; indeed, gaining anything. If you are looking to “in-
crease” and/or “gain” then, the waxing moon is the right
time to use magic toward your goal. It is the active spring/
summer-like time of the lunar cycle.
The moon is full when it is on the opposite side of the
earth from the sun. It (the side we see) is fully engulfed in sunlight and appears to our eye to be complete in its
roundness. This time in the lunar cycle is very powerful
and can be difficult if you do not proceed with caution
in your endeavors; both magical and mundane. The rea-
son being is that gravity from the moon is pulling us in
one direction and the sun is pulling us in the opposite
direction; so to speak. You may know that the word ‘lu-
nacy’ is a term originally used to denote the weirdness
that may come over some people at this time and indeed,
some people do act rather loony for the three days of the
full moon. It can also be a difficult time for people who
suffer from migraine headaches as these tend to be worse
during the full moon time for many sufferers. I would
venture to guess that is due to the gravitational pull from both the sun and moon acting on us from opposite di-50 Chapter 3
rections. That being said, when we are in the middle of
the alignment of earth, moon and sun, we are opened up
psychically to a much greater degree of magical energy
and spiritual awareness. If we seek to utilize our access
to this “magical boost” we can work very powerful magic
during this phase. During the full moon, it is best to work magic toward psychic awareness, Goddess worship and
understanding, physical and spiritual protection, divina-
tion, and anything having to do with the “infinity of so-
lution” i.e. if you are embroiled in conflict and need to
find a way to make everyone happy (release all expecta-
tion of what you want to happen beforehand though to
avoid unfair manipulation). This time in the lunar cycle is delicate AND powerful and should not be taken lightly;
it should be respected and, if used, be used only for im-
portant goals. That helps take away any possibility of lu-
nacy … thank goodness!
The “waning” moon is after the full moon on through
back to the new moon when the moon appears to be mov-
ing toward the sun and the moon is decreasing in light.
At this time, our bodies are readjusting from the gravita-
tional force of the full moon and preparing for the gravitational focus and new beginning of the new moon. During
the waning moon our bodies and minds are in “release”
mode so; it is best to work magic to release, remove, and
rid oneself of anything harmful or unnecessary. It is an
ideal time for banishing, healings (in the form of casting out illness as opposed to building strength), curse (actual
Magical Ethics 51
or perceived) removal, and deep spiritual grounding and
centering. It is also a good time for introspection, reflection and meditation; any task involving turning inward.
This can be a dangerous time since we are a bit more open
and vulnerable to the energies around us. This is the time in the lunar cycle that some foolishly work dark magic
against others regardless of consequence. Since we are of
a magical mindset and therefore, more open than most
people; I would suggest the wearing of protective amulets
at this time to ensure that others’ negativity does not find its way to you. Also, I would like to add a warning that
when working magic to rid oneself of obstacles or block-
ages; be specific. If you are too general and cast a spell to remove all your obstacles, things may leave your life that you would rather keep (jobs, friends, a spouse, etc.) and
