Luna Crescens

The school of Moon Magic

The Path of Luna Crescens lies visible only to those who follow the Spirit. Those stoic soul-searchers faithful to the Spirit are ever aware of time, the passage of it, and the changes it brings through the cycles of night and day, summer and winter.

Moonphasers bask in the power of night’s shining light, waxing and waning into mentalism (mastering mind and body), shamanism (embracing both Spirit and Nature) and clericism (harnessing cleansing and protective energies).

Mentalist

Mentalists are masters of discipline, in body, mind and spirit.

They believe in temperance, perseverance, and humility.

Mastering even their own electromagnetism, mentalists can bend reality to their will.

Shaman

Shamans call forth the primitive and primal powers of the nocturnal.

Shamans hold grave respect for life and death and celebrate all transformations in between.

Shamans bridge the divide between spirit world and physical.

Cleric

Clerics are gentle protectors of the peace. Soothing pain, relinquishing anguish and defending the innocent.

Those devoted to the Spirit are watchful keepers of wisdom, patient and steadfast.

Spiritual Magica .

Moonphasing requires specifically prepared candles, set to burn at different rates to release different aromas to bask in as the Spirit magica coalesces around the moonphaser. The order, arrangement, and time delay between candle-lighting form the foundation for lunar magica. As a result, moonphasers are often patient, disciplined and balanced in both fortitude and resilience.

The art of candle creation is a separate craft and tradition. The Guild of CandleKeepers holds highest distinction in that regard. Their outposts are always social and political hubs for followers of the Spirit.
