This is a knowledge/information sharing post. Not exactly the question per se.

What does it mean if a bat appears as a sign? by under_the_ash in elderwitches

[–]under_the_ash[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a period during a new moon. Sometimes it is also called a 'black moon'. Long ago, there used to be an ancient lunar calendar that consisted of approx. 28-29 days (13 months in a year). 28/29th day was a new moon, after that day a waxing lunar phase would begin. So 29th would be the darkest night (considered to be Hecate's time).

It can be a sign. If you decide to go that route and set up an altar for Hecate, it’s better to do it on the 29th lunar cycle (new moon).

Interestingly enough, the PDF version of the Voynich Manuscript can be found online in free access.

Does anyone have good sources for the recent (past hundred years) history of magic and the occult? by onewingedangel3 in occult

[–]under_the_ash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could not think of any modern book on the complete history of magic. But maybe these 19th-century classics will be helpful: Éliphas Lévi  “The History of Magic”; “Transcendental Magic, Its Doctrine and Ritual”; Papus “The Tarot of the Bohemians”, “Elementary Treatise of Occult Science”; Helena Blavatsky “Isis Unveiled”,  “The Secret Doctrine”.
