Origin & Lore
Moon oils belong to the tradition of planetary oils, made to align a working with one of the classical planets. The Moon rules intuition, dreams, the tides, emotion and psychic sight, and she is worked through her phases.
Every tide on earth answers to the Moon, and witches have timed their work to her phases for as long as there have been witches.
In Greek and Roman religion the Moon was personified as Selene or Luna and closely tied to Artemis and Diana, goddesses later invoked by European witches.
Planetary oils grew from the old Western magickal practice of timing work by planetary days and hours, with Monday belonging to the Moon.
Did You Know?
Monday takes its name from the Moon, from Old English Monandæg, the Moon’s day.
