January 31 is the 1st of 2 Blue Moons in 2018. This year, in 2018, we have two months (January and March) that harbor a Blue Moon. It’s a seasonal Blue Moon – an older definition of the term – the third of four full moons between the March equinox and the June solstice of 2016
In recent years, people have been using the name Blue Moon for the second of two full moons in a single calendar month. An older definition says a Blue Moon is the third of four full moons in a single season. The phrase has nothing to do with the actual color of the moon, although a literal “blue moon” (the moon appearing with a tinge of blue) may occur in certain atmospheric conditions, if volcanic eruptions or fires leave particles in the atmosphere of just the right size to scatter red light.
The term has traditionally referred to an “extra” moon, where a year which normally has 12 moons has 13 instead.
Powerful Magic Spells cast on the evening of a rare Blue Moon are known to be nine times more potent than any other time.
The amazing Blue Moon energy is especially beneficial when infused into Crystals and can be used as lucky charms or Talismans.
Write your wish on a blue candle. Light your candle and make your wish. Spend time mediating on the outcome. We all want love. We all want to fulfill our dreams. Our thoughts become things. Wish spells have been cast through the centuries, whether tossing a silver coin into a wishing well, wishing on a star, breaking a wish bone, or blowing out your birthday candles, we all have used our thought energies to make a wish.
