Crescent Moon - The Moon is 45-90 degrees ahead of the sun.
The crescent shape faces East, the gates of rebirth. The Moon
rises mid-morning and sets after sunset. The crescent's greatest
strength is at the midpoint. Work magick for animals, business,
change, emotions and matriarchal strength.
   The Crescent Moon is the first sliver of Moon seen in the
western sky in the late afternoon and early evening. The crescent
moon is SPROUT. The seed has broken through the earth and
reaches up as she ventures from the dark, moist earth she has
known. Keywords for the Crescent Moon phase are expansion,
growth, struggle, and opportunity. It is the time in a lunar cycle that
you gather the wisdom learned in the New phase and communicate
your intention to move forward. Light a candle. Write or read an
affirmation. LISTEN & ABSORB. Commit to your goal(s).

Saturn 's Day - the Day of Manifestation and Structure, Assessment
and Responsibility - Foundation Day ......Saturdays are traditionally days
to work on protection, remove obstacles, bind troublesome or dangerous
individuals and banish negativity. Saturdays are like 'let's clean house' day.
Any magickal messes left lying around that need to be addressed, or any
problems that need to be cleared up, as best dealt with on the day devoted
to Saturn.
   Saturdays are the particular day of the week for protection and for dealing
with more serious magickal matters. Meditate on Hecate to learn her lessons
and include some dark goddess wisdom into your Craft. As a Witch you already
know that you have power - the power to effect real change in your life. Working
with Hecate can teach you how and when to best use this power for the greater
good.

Invocation to Hecate 

Cauldrons, three keys and black dogs that bay at the moon 

Grant me wisdom and strength, pray hear this Witch's tune

Goddess of the crossroads, Hecate, I call upon you

Come lend your magick to mine; my need is strong and true.

Remember to thank Hecate for her time and attention when you are finished with

your witchery.
