Eclipse Magic

Color of the day:  Lavender
Incense of the day:  Lily
 
Today is a Full Moon and a partial lunar eclipse. A lunar eclipse occurs when Earth is between the Sun and Moon, causing Earth's shadow to be cast over the Moon.
This eclipse will be visible from most of Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, and the northwestern Americas.
Eclipses are times of potent magics and mysteries. Celebrate the eclipsed Full Moon by spending a full day honoring our favorite satellite.
Wear silver or white.
Divide your day into eight sections-one for each of the lunar phases: new, waxing quarter, waxing half, waxing gibbous, full, waning gibbous, waning half, waning quarter, and new again. At each section, meditate on the lunar phase, keeping the Moon on your mind.
Arrange the day so you're available at the moment of Full Moon and eclipse. Reaching skyward, draw down the lunar energies. This is an excellent time to charge water, oils, or other spell materials, as well as to bless and charge tools.
The moment of maximum eclipse is possibly the most powerful time for writing in your Book of Shadows. Working under eclipsed moonlight, use a special pen to capture the lunar energies, literally "writing down the Moon" into your own spell and ritual craft.
