The full moon has passed, and now we are into the waning phases.  First waning phase after the full moon is often called the disseminating moon or the waning gibbous moon.

The disseminating moon lasts from 3.5 to 7 days after the exact full (17.5 to 21 days after the new moon) and rises during mid-evening (after nightfall in most seasons) and sets around mid-morning.

Disseminating moon energy is good for:

• making decisions
• protection spells
• working on removing stress and negative emotions from your life

As you can see, the energies of the waning moon phases are for pushing things OUT from you, and keeping undesired things out of yourself and your surroundings.  The more the moon wanes, the stronger the “push” gets (more in following waning phases).
